DATA PROTECTION POLICY OF MYCLUBS AG, ZURICH

§ 1 General

  1. The use of personal data by myClubs AG with headquarters in Zurich and its business address myClubs AG c/o The HUB Zürich Association, Sihlquai 131, 8005 Zürich. („myClubs„), is subject to the applicable laws, and user consent to the use of their data.

  2. myClubs facilitates contracts between on one side sports venue operators, operators of gyms and sports clubs or other service providers (collectively, the „Partners„) and on the other side its members. Furthermore, myClubs itself also organizes events where members can participate. For this purpose, myClubs provides under the domain www.myclubs.com an intuitive platform for booking sports and use of social media functions (the „Platform„) (collectively, the „Services of myClubs„).

  3. myClubs is aware that the protection and careful handling of personal data is extremely important. Since data protection occupies an important place at myClubs, myClubs adheres strictly in the use of this data to the applicable Swiss legal requirements.

  4. The user is instructed to read the general terms and conditions („GTC“) of myClubs at http://www.myclubs.com/ch/en/general-terms-and-conditions. The user must explicitly accept the GTC during registration.

§ 2 Data collection

  1. myClubs captures and stores any type of information that the user enters via the Platform or via any other means that myClubs provides. myClubs uses the user's personal data to the extent permitted by law, and only with the consent of the user. When the consent within the scope of services is given electronically, myClubs fulfills legal requirements and logs this consent by means of appropriate technical systems.

  2. In addition to the data mentioned under § 5 and 6, myClubs uses the following personal user data: names, address, email address and mobile telephone number.

  3. In addition, the IP address is automatically transmitted from the user's device to myClubs and then saved on the myClubs server. The IP address is a worldwide, unique device identifier and consists of four (4) different blocks of numbers separated by dots. In most cases the user, as a private person, will not use a static IP address, since this is only temporarily assigned to the user by the provider (so-called dynamic IP address). With static IP addresses, however, a clear allocation of user data is possible in principle. Except for the purpose of prosecution for unauthorised access to myClubs services, myClubs does not use this information in relation to an individual, but evaluates this data on an anonymous basis for statistical purposes, for example to determine which pages and hyperlinks are favoured or how many daily accesses there were.

§ 3 Purpose of data use

The personal data mentioned under points § 2 Point 2. and Point 3., 5 and 6, that the user provides, are used by myClubs,

  1. to allow the user to use the platform after successful registration, or rather to allow a registered member to use all services of myClubs;

  2. to improve the services of myClubs, in particular to design the advertising and content that the user sees on the platform to be user-friendly and to send the users information about the services of myClubs by email;

  3. to tailor the services of myClubs to the user's preferences, to check the efficiency of the networks and the performance of myClubs and to develop new tools for the users; as well as

  4. to prevent misuse of the services of myClubs and to trace unauthorised accesses.

§ 4 Data security

Personal data is protected with a password for reasons of data security. The user must therefore ensure that their password is appropriately selected and not passed on to a third party.

myClubs will take appropriate measures to ensure data security.

If myClubs comes to know that user's data was used highly illegally and systematically, and the user faces the threat of harm as a result, myClubs will promptly inform the user.

The platform contains links to other services or partners' websites. myClubs is not responsible for the data protection policy and/or operations of other partners or websites. If the user follows a link to another website, the user alone is responsible for familiarising himself with the data protection policy of this site. The data protection policy of myClubs is limited only to the information that was collected by myClubs.

myClubs is entitled to commission third parties to process data within the scope of the contract; these are not contractual parties to the user.

§ 5 Cookies and advertising

  1. Several areas of the platform use „Cookies„ - small text files that are placed on the user's computer and stored by the browser.

Only data listed in this point or in § 2 point 2 will be recorded through Cookies.

  2. Suitable search results, ads and advertising from myClubs or a third-party can appear on both on the platform and on linked websites according to the user's interests. Customised search results, ads and advertising are based off the information that myClubs received via the user's activity on the myClubs platform. Through the use of Cookies, myClubs learns which links and offers the user follows. In this way, the user can be presented with useful and relevant links, ads and advertising.

  3. myClubs has neither access nor influence on Cookies and other features that are used by third parties in connection with advertising on the platform.
