We process personal data of the users of our online offer only as far as necessary for the provision of a functional online offer as well as our contents and services.

Iii. Legal Basis for The Processing of Personal Data

We would like to inform you about the legal basis for our data processing. If the legal basis is not mentioned in our privacy policy, the processing of your personal data is based on the following legal bases:

Act. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO serves as our legal basis if we have obtained your consent for a specific processing purpose.

Act. 6 (1) lit. b DSGVO is the legal basis if the processing of personal data is necessary for the performance of a contract, e.g. if you conclude a membership contract via the online offer. This legal basis also applies to the processing of personal data that is necessary for the performance of pre-contractual measures, e.g. when you contact us with inquiries regarding our products and services.

Act. 6 (1) lit. c DSGVO is our legal basis, so far as processing of personal data is necessary for the fulfilment of a legal obligation, such as the fulfilment of obligations under commercial and tax law.

If vital interests of you or another person make processing of personal data necessary, Act. 6 (1) lit. d DSGVO serves as the legal basis.

If processing is necessary to protect the legitimate interests of our company or a third party and if the interests, fundamental rights and freedoms of you do not outweigh the first-mentioned interest, the personal data will be processed on the basis of Act. 6 (1) f DSGVO.

IV. Data Deletion and Storage Period

We would like to inform you about the storage period and data deletion in our data processing. Unless otherwise specified in our privacy policy in the following sections, the following applies to the storage period and data deletion:

We process and store your personal data only for the period required to fulfil the purpose of processing and storage. Your data may be stored beyond this period if it has been provided for, by the European or national legislator in regulations, laws, or other provisions with which we must comply. Your data will also be blocked or deleted if a storage period provided by the standards expires unless there is a need to continue storing your data for the conclusion or fulfilment of a contract. If the personal data is blocked, it will be deleted as soon as there are no legal or contractual retention periods, there is no reason to assume that deletion would impair your interests worthy of protection and deletion does not cause disproportionate expense due to the nature of the storage.

V. Provision of The Online Offer And Creation Of Log Files

We use cookies on our online offer. Cookies are small text files that are stored in your Internet browser or by the Internet browser on your computer system. Cookies are downloaded when you visit a website. This cookie contains a characteristic string of characters that allows the browser to uniquely identify you when you return to the website. Temporary cookies, or “session cookies” or “transient cookies”, are cookies that are deleted after a user leaves the online offer and closes his browser. Such a cookie may contain, for example, the contents of a shopping cart in an online store or a login status. Cookies that remain stored even after the browser has been closed are referred to as “permanent” or “persistent”. In this way, for example, a login status can be stored if a user visits the online offer after several days. Likewise, user interests can be stored in such a cookie, which is used for range measurement or marketing purposes. If the website is called up again from the same terminal device, the cookie is sent back either to the website that generated it (first-party cookie) or to another website to which it belongs (third-party cookie). With the help of the cookie, the website can recognize that it has already been accessed once with this browser and can, among other things, improve the user experience when it is accessed again.

Through this service, website tags can be managed through an interface. The Google Tool Manager only implements tags. This means that no cookies are used and no personal data is collected. The Google Tool Manager triggers other tags, which in turn may collect data. However, the Google Tag Manager does not access this data. If a deactivation has been made at the domain or cookie level, it remains in place for all tracking tags,  as these are implemented with the Google Tag Manager.

Google is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and thus offers a guarantee of compliance with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active ).

However, your IP address will be shortened beforehand by Google within member states of the European Union or in other contracting states of the Agreement on the European Economic Area. Only in exceptional cases will the full IP address be transmitted to a Google server in the USA and shortened there. The IP address transmitted by your browser as part of Google Analytics will not be merged with other Google data. The cookies stored by Google Analytics are deleted after 26 months at the latest.

Within our online offering, we use the “demographic characteristics” function of Google Analytics. This allows us to create reports that contain statements about the age, gender and interests of site visitors. This data on the “demographic characteristics” of visitors to our online offer comes from interest-based advertising from Google as well as from visitor data from third-party providers, but cannot be assigned by us to any particular person.

By using the Google Analytics service, we also want to ensure that our ads placed with Google or its partners correspond to the potential interest of the persons to whom the ads are played. With the help of the so-called “Remarketing” or “Google Analytics Audiences” functions, our ads are only displayed to people who have also shown an interest in our online offering or who have certain characteristics specified by us (e.g. interests in certain topics or products determined on the basis of the websites visited).

Google is certified under the Privacy Shield agreement and thereby offers a guarantee of compliance with European data protection law (https://www.privacyshield.gov/participant?id=a2zt000000001L5AAI&status=Active ).

VII. Newsletter

If you register for the newsletter, you agree until revocation that you receive a personalized newsletter from RSG Group and its subsidiaries CYBEROBICS GmbH, THE REED GmbH, Qi² Sports Nutrition GmbH, LOOX Sports GmbH and McFIT MODEL AGENCY GmbH and that the related companies of RSG Group may send you advertisements about products, services, promotions and satisfaction surveys. In order to send a newsletter optimized for you, you consent to an evaluation by the related companies, which measures whether and when the newsletter is opened and which links you click on. You can find detailed information about the dispatch procedure and the data collected during newsletter dispatch in the following text. You can cancel the receipt of the newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. For this purpose, you will find a corresponding link in each newsletter. You can also revoke your consent by sending us a simple message by mail (RSG Group GmbH, Tannenberg 4, 96132 Schlüsselfeld) or by e-mail (meine-daten@rsggroup.com ). You will not incur any costs other than the transmission costs according to the prime rate.

1 Description and Scope of Data Processing for Newsletter Dispatch

Within the conclusion of a membership contract with the RSG Group, you have the possibility to subscribe to a free newsletter. For this purpose, we need your e-mail address.

For the processing of the data, your consent is obtained during the registration process and reference is made to this privacy policy.

The registration for our newsletter is done in a so-called double opt-in process. This means that after registering for the newsletter, you will receive an e-mail asking you to confirm your registration. This confirmation is necessary so that no one can register with a foreign e-mail address. The registrations to the newsletter are logged in order to be able to prove the registration process according to the legal requirements. For this purpose, it is necessary to store the time of registration and confirmation, as well as the IP address.

Even if you have not registered for our newsletter, we can use your stored e-mail address for sending a newsletter if you purchase goods or services from the RSG Group on our online offer or in one of the studios and enter your e-mail address. In such a case, only direct advertising for our own similar goods or services will be sent via the newsletter.

2 Legal Basis and Purpose of Data Processing

The legal basis for sending the newsletter and the associated performance measurement is your consent pursuant to Act. 6 (1) lit. a DSGVO.

The logging of the registration process is based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Act. 6 para. 1 lit f DSGVO. Here, our interest is directed towards the use of a user-friendly and secure newsletter dispatch process, which on the one hand serves our business interests and enables us to prove your consent and at the same time also meets your expectations.

The legal basis for sending the newsletter without newsletter registration as a result of the sale of goods or services is in the Federal Republic of Germany § 7 para 3 UWG and in Austria § 107 para 2 and 3 TKG. In addition, the legal basis is also Act. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO, as we have a legitimate interest in direct marketing.

The processing of your email address serves to deliver the newsletter to you.

3. Duration of Storage

The data will be deleted as soon as its no longer required to achieve the purpose for which they were collected. Your e-mail address will therefore be stored for the newsletter dispatch as long as you have subscribed to a newsletter.

You can cancel the receipt of our newsletter at any time, i.e. revoke your consent. For this purpose, you will find a corresponding link in each newsletter. You can also revoke your consent by sending a simple message to us. You can use the following contact data for this purpose without incurring any costs other than the transmission costs according to the basic tariff:

Via mail: RSG Group GmbH, Tannenberg 4, 96132 Schlüsselfeld or

Via e-mail: meine-daten@rsggroup.com .

In order to be able to prove a previously given consent, we can store the unsubscribed e-mail address for up to three years on the basis of our legitimate interests before it is deleted. In this case, storage only takes place for the purpose of possible defence against claims.

4 Newsletter Dispatch by CleverReach

The newsletter is sent by means of the dispatch service provider CleverReach GmbH & Co. KG (hereinafter “CleverReach”), Mühlenstraße 43, 26180 Rastede, Germany. You can view the privacy policy of the shipping service provider at cleverreach.com.

We use the services of CleverReach based on our legitimate interest pursuant to Act. 6 (1) lit. f DSGVO.

CleverReach may use the recipients’ data without attribution to a specific user to optimize or improve its own service, e.g. for the technical optimization of the dispatch and the improvement of the presentation of the newsletter. CleverReach will not use the data of our newsletter recipients to contact them or to pass them on to third parties.

5 Newsletter Performance Measurement

The newsletters may contain so-called “web-beacon”. These are pixel-sized files that are retrieved from our server or from the server of our dispatch service provider when a newsletter is opened. As part of this retrieval, technical information such as information about your browser and operating system, but also your IP address and the time of retrieval of the newsletter are collected.

The legal basis for the processing of data regarding the newsletter performance measurement is Act. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO.

All this information is used to improve the service based on the technical data or the target groups and their reading behaviour based on the retrieval locations or access times. Also collected is the determination of whether the newsletter was opened, when it was opened, and which links were clicked. Even if this information can be assigned to an individual newsletter recipient for technical reasons, neither we nor the dispatch service provider will monitor individual users. The analyses serve us to recognize the reading habits of our users and to adapt our content to them or to send interest-oriented newsletters to our users.

Viii. Disclosure of Data to Service Companies and Other Third Parties

Various service companies are active on our behalf with regard to the operation and optimization of our online offer as well as for our services and for contract processing, e.g. for central IT services or for the hosting of our online offer. We pass on to these service providers the data necessary for the fulfilment of the contract. However, a transfer of data to a third country (i.e. a country outside the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA)) only takes place in compliance with Act. 44 to Act. 49 DSGVO.

The legal basis for the transfer of data to service providers is Act. 6 (1) lit b and f DSGVO.

We may also disclose your personal data to third parties or government agencies if we are required to do so by official or court order or if we are entitled to do so, as this is necessary, for example, for the prosecution of criminal offenses or for the protection and enforcement of our rights or claims.

The legal basis for this disclosure is Act. 6 para. 1 lit. c and f DSGVO.

IX. Contacting

When contacting us (e.g. by contact form, email, telephone or via social media), your information will be processed for the purpose of handling the contact request and its processing. In all cases of contact, the processing of your information, including your personal data, is solely for the purpose of processing the request.

Your user information may be stored and processed in a customer relationship management system (“CRM system”) or a comparable system.

If your inquiry relates to a matter of a company affiliated with RSG Group in Germany or abroad (e.g. an inquiry regarding a location outside Germany), we will forward your inquiry, including your personal data, to the respective affiliated company for further processing of your inquiry. However, onward transfer to a third country (i.e. a country outside the European Union (EU) and the European Economic Area (EEA)) will only take place in compliance with Articles 44 to 49 of the GDPR.

The legal basis for the processing of your data transmitted when contacting us is Act. 6 para. 1 lit. f DSGVO. If the contact with us is aimed at the conclusion of a contract or its fulfilment, Act. 6 para. 1 lit. b DSGVO is also the legal basis.

Your request will be deleted as soon as the circumstances indicate that the respective matter has been  clarified, and furthermore, there are no longer any legal or contractual obligations to retain data.

X. The RSG Group on social networks/platforms

Since we want to communicate with our customers, prospects and users, we are represented with our own pages in social networks (such as Facebook and Instagram) and platforms. There we also provide information about our services. If you access these pages of the networks or platforms, the terms and conditions and privacy policies of the respective operator apply.

Unless we state otherwise in our privacy policy, we only process the data of users who communicate with us within the social networks or platforms.
