Note on data transfer to the USA and other third countries

Among other things, we use tools from companies based in the USA or other third countries that are not secure under data protection law. If these tools are active, your personal data can be transferred to these third countries and processed there. We would like to point out that in these countries no level of data protection comparable to that of the EU can be guaranteed. For example, US companies are obliged to release personal data to security authorities without you as the person concerned being able to take legal action against this. It can therefore not be ruled out that US authorities (e.g. secret services) will process, evaluate and permanently store your data on US servers for monitoring purposes. We have no influence on these processing activities.

Revocation of your consent to data processing

Many data processing operations are only possible with your express consent. You can revoke consent that you have already given at any time. The legality of the data processing that took place up until the revocation remains unaffected by the revocation.

IF YOUR PERSONAL DATA IS PROCESSED FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO OBJECT AT ANY TIME TO THE PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL DATA FOR THE PURPOSES OF SUCH ADVERTISING; THIS ALSO APPLIES TO PROFILING TO THE EXTENT RELATED TO SUCH DIRECT ADVERTISING. IF YOU OBJECT, YOUR PERSONAL DATA WILL NO LONGER BE USED FOR DIRECT ADVERTISING PURPOSES (OBJECTION ACCORDING TO ART. 21 (2) GDPR).

In the event of violations of the GDPR, those affected have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority, in particular in the Member State of their habitual residence, their place of work or the place of the alleged violation.

We use the WhatsApp instant messaging service to communicate with our customers and other third parties. The provider is WhatsApp Ireland Limited, 4 Grand Canal Square, Grand Canal Harbour, Dublin 2, Ireland.

We use WhatsApp in the “WhatsApp Business” variant.

For its services, Google Ireland Ltd. on Google LLC, 1600 Amphitheater Parkway, Mountain View, CA 94043, USA (both together, hereinafter “ Google ”).

Social Media Plugins

SportsNow uses social media plugins and sign-in services from various social network providers (“ providers „) on the platforms. You can recognize the plugins by the logos of the relevant social networks.

When you access the website or app that contains a plugin, your browser or app establishes a direct connection to the provider’s computers. The content of the plugin is sent directly to your browser or the app by the provider and integrated into the website or app by it. By integrating the plugins, the provider receives the information that you have accessed the website or app. If you are logged in to the provider at the same time, this provider can assign the visit to your profile. If you interact with the plugins or sign-in services, the corresponding information is transmitted directly from your browser or the app to the provider and stored there.

SportsNow has integrated plugins from the social networks listed below into the platforms. The purpose and scope of the data collection and the further processing of your personal data by the providers as well as your rights in this regard and setting options for the protection of your privacy can be found in the data protection information of the providers:

• Apple Inc., One Apple Park Way, Cupertino, CA 95014, USA; Further information on data protection can be found here .

• YouTube LLC, 901 Cherry Avenue, San Bruno, CA 94066, USA; Further information on data protection can be found here .

If you do not want providers to collect personal data about you via the platforms, you must log out of the relevant provider before visiting the platforms, do not use any sign-in services or deactivate app tracking on your mobile device. Even when you are logged out, the providers collect anonymous data via the plugins and set a cookie in your browser. If you log in to the provider at a later point in time, this data can be assigned to your profile.

If a registration or login is made via a sign-in service, personal data is exchanged between the provider and the website or app. By using the Sign In Services, you expressly consent to such processing of your personal data, which also includes the transmission of your personal data to the USA and other countries.

If you do not want the providers to collect personal data about you via cookies, you can select the „Block third-party cookies“ function in your browser settings. Then your browser will not send any cookies to the server for embedded content from other providers. With this setting, other functions of the platforms may no longer work.

log files

When using the platforms, general access data is stored in a log file for the creation of statistics. SportsNow uses this data for statistical and technical evaluations and in an anonymous form, for example to optimize the server infrastructure, to determine which days have a particularly large number of accesses or to be able to draw conclusions about opportunities for improvement in the user interface and functionalities.

If you open a link to one of these SportsNow profiles, a direct connection is established between your browser and the server of the relevant social network.

If you access a link to a network while logged into your user account on that network, the content of the platforms may be linked to your user account of the network, i.e. the network may link your visit to the platforms directly to your user account.
