II. General Information on Data Processing

1. Scope of Processing Personal Data

We process personal data of our users only to the extent necessary to provide a functional application and our contents and services. The processing of personal data of our users is regularly conducted only with the consent of the user. An exception applies in cases where obtaining prior consent is not possible for factual reasons and where the processing of data is permitted by legal regulations.

If we obtain consent from the data subject for processing operations of personal data, Article 6(1)(a) GDPR serves as the legal basis.​ We process your personal data in accordance with Article 6(1)(a) GDPR when you have given your consent to the respective processing. Your consent is voluntary and can be revoked by you at any time. You will receive further information about the processing activity based on your consent in any case. Please note that the withdrawal of your consent does not have retroactive effect; any processing that has already taken place remains unaffected.

For the processing of personal data necessary for the fulfillment of a contract to which the data subject is a party, Article 6(1)(b) GDPR serves as the legal basis. This also applies to processing operations necessary for carrying out pre-contractual measures. ​We process your personal data in accordance with Article 6(1)(b) GDPR when the processing is carried out to provide our services based on the contract concluded between us.​ This includes processing in the context of providing the app and associated services on the OnePlayr platform, as well as services related to OnePlayr’s crypto-based services and products. For example, this processing is necessary for the creation or provision of your account or for the provision of the profile you have set up. Further information on the scope of the services we provide can be found in the respective contractual documents and their terms and conditions.

If processing is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation to which our company is subject, Article 6(1)(c) GDPR serves as the legal basis.​ We process your personal data in accordance with Article 6(1)(c) GDPR due to our legal obligations as a service provider. We are subject to various legal obligations, including the obligation to verify age or to fulfill tax-related reporting and control obligations.

If processing is necessary for the protection of a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, and if the interests, fundamental rights, and freedoms of the data subject do not outweigh the former interest, Article 6(1)(f) GDPR serves as the legal basis. ​We process your personal data in accordance with Article 6(1)(f) GDPR when we have a legitimate interest in doing so.​ This means that our interest in processing your data is not overridden by your interests or your fundamental rights and freedoms. Whether this is the case is determined by us on a general basis and before the initiation of the respective processing activity. We will consider the purposes outlined below and assess the specific circumstances in each situation, taking into account the legitimate expectations you might have based on your relationship with us. We conduct this analysis to ensure that these data processing activities do not infringe upon your data protection rights. These purposes include the following:

  • Enforcement of legal claims and defense in legal disputes;

  • Ensuring our IT security and the overall IT operations;

  • Prevention and investigation of criminal offenses;

  • Non-promotional email correspondence;

  • Testing and optimizing needs analysis procedures, including customer segmentation;

  • Direct marketing or market research regarding the functionality and performance of our services;

  • Measures to further develop the capabilities of our services (for example, our app).

If you would like more information on the considerations mentioned above or if you wish to opt out of certain data processing activities based on our legitimate interest due to your particular circumstances, please contact us so that we can further assess your situation and the ongoing processing activities.

3. Type of Data Processed

Most of the personal data we process is provided by you (for example, your name or email address). We also process data from your device that we collect during your use of our app or website, as well as, where permissible, data we obtain from third parties or public sources.

We collect and process your personal data when you create an account. If you do not provide the following information, you will not be able to create an account with us:

  • Email address

During your registration, we also collect your device’s location (which you must allow via your device settings), and we may also request additional information or documents due to legal requirements (e.g., data protection or youth protection), in accordance with our legal obligations as a financial institution.

​We collect and process this data to fulfill our legal and contractual obligations.

After registration, you will either be activated as a user or receive a notification about the waiting list if the maximum number of users has already been reached.​ In this case, we will still create your account. For verification, we send each user a code via email, which they can then use to set a username and password.

Within the app, you can undergo additional onboarding and voluntarily provide additional information. This includes data such as nationality, place of residence, height, and a profile picture. These details are optional and are solely for the purposes of profile enhancement.

​As a user, you can upload videos of yourself and participate in so-called challenges.​ The challenges are clearly defined and provide a description as well as, if applicable, a sample video. In the feed, other users can see your videos and the videos of all other users, and they can scroll through the feed, visit profiles, and like videos. For participating in or winning a challenge, users earn credits, which can be used on the platform at a later time.​

​We use the information you provide to personalize our service to a limited extent as described below.​ You can personalize our services by, for example, selecting different display modes and colors and determining whether and for what purposes we may collect and use your in-app data.

In addition, we process your personal data, such as your interactions with the feed and other actions you take, to show you contract updates, new features, or new services in our app, or to demonstrate how you can use our services. We process the data to fulfill our contractual obligations based on the choices you make, as applicable, based on your consent, and with regard to warnings based on our legal obligations.

The beta focuses on video creation and the community experience. Interactions are primarily visual; users upload videos and profile information, scroll through the feed, and can like content. All submissions are voluntary, so the legal basis for this processing is your consent.

You also have the option to change your contact information and other personal data. This processing is carried out to fulfill our contractual obligations.

4. Data Deletion and Storage Duration

​We only retain your data for as long as we need it to provide you with our services or to comply with our legal obligations.​ We are subject to various statutory retention requirements that dictate how long we are legally obliged to store data. These laws apply even if you explicitly request us to delete your data. Our retention periods arise from our regulatory and tax reporting obligations, which can vary between 2 and 10 years, and in some exceptions, up to 15 years (usually starting from the end of the respective calendar year). As we are a German company, German statutory retention periods apply, unless the laws of the country in which you are located explicitly provide otherwise. The key German laws (which generally stem from EU directives and regulations) in this context are the General Tax Code, the Money Laundering Act, and the Commercial Code. Furthermore, the retention period also depends on the statutory limitation periods, which vary by location and can range from 2 years to up to 30 years. Personal data that we process based on your consent will be stored until you withdraw your consent or close your account, and we no longer have a legitimate interest in retaining this data.​ For example, if you have consented to receive marketing emails, we must retain your consent for a certain period to demonstrate that the marketing emails you have received from us are based on your validly granted consent.

5. Marketing Activities and Social Media

We process personal data for our marketing activities and in connection with our use of social media. We also process personal data to display or send personalized advertising. For this purpose, we use the information made available to us as well as data collected during your use of our app, including delivery confirmations and information about whether messages have been read. You can object to this processing at any time by contacting us or by closing your account. ​The processing of your data for advertising purposes, where no consent is required, is based on our legitimate interest in direct advertising and marketing.​ We only use tracking data for marketing purposes based on your consent, and you can withdraw your consent at any time in your profile settings.

III. Provision of the App and Creation of Logfiles

1. Description and Scope of Data Processing

With each use of our app, our system automatically collects data and information from the computer system of the accessing device. The following data is collected:

  • Browser type and version: Information about the browser type and the version used.

  • Operating system: The operating system of the user’s device.

  • IP address: The user’s IP address.

  • Date and time of access: Date and time of access.

  • Visited pages: Features that are accessed from the user’s system.

  • Device: Device Vendor, Model, OS Version Information

The temporary storage of the IP address by the system is necessary to enable the delivery of the app to the user’s device. For this, the user’s IP address must be stored for the duration of the session. The data is deleted as soon as it is no longer necessary for the purposes of its collection. In the case of the collection of data for the provision of the app, this is the case when the respective session is finished. The collection of data for the provision of the app and the storage of data in logfiles are essential for the operation of the app. Thus, the legal basis for the temporary storage of data and logfiles is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

IV. Recipients or Categories of Recipients

​We only transfer your data to third parties (data processors as well as other data controllers) when this is in compliance with applicable law.​ The data controllers are responsible for processing your data on their own, and you can assert your rights as a data subject directly with them. Data processors process your data on our instructions and under our responsibility. We generally engage data processors when we outsource specific areas of our services, such as IT services, handling certain customer service inquiries, logistics, or printing services.

1. Categories of Recipients
