Privacy Policy

Gymopol AB (“Gymopol AB” or "we") provides Gymopol a social platform for fitness enthusiasts (“Gymopol” or the “Services”). In connection with your use of the Services, we process personal data. This Privacy policy explains how and why we process personal data.

Personal data that we collect and process

We process the personal data about you that you provide when you register a user account (“Account”) to become a member in Gymopol and the data and any content that you subsequently provide when you use the Services. In addition, we may automatically collect technical information (IP address, browser, operating system, etc.) and information about the Services that you have used. We also collect information through cookies, if you have chosen to accept cookies. (See also our Cookie Policy).

Use of personal data

We use personal data to:

  • Manage your registration or termination of your Account and membership in Gymopol,
  • Manage usernames and permissions for your Account,
  • Manage payment details and your choice of settings in Gymopol,
  • Deliver the Services under our Membership Terms.

The legal basis for our processing of personal data above is the agreement (“Agreement”) that you have entered into with us for us to provide the Services. As regards the processing of any personal data related to your health, it is processed on the basis of your consent, provided through your use of the Services. Depending on the relevant jurisdictions and regulations, separate consent may be requested from you. We also use personal data for:

  • Marketing of the Services and third party products and services, such as advertisements, promotions and offers,
  • Analysis and development of the Services.

The legal basis for our processing in relation to marketing is your consent, which can be withdrawn at any time. The legal basis for our processing for analysis and development is our legitimate interest.

Who has access to personal data?

With the exception of publicly available information, we will not disclose personal data to anyone outside of Gymopol AB, except to external IT service providers (authenticating, operating, support and hosting providers), who in some cases process personal data on our behalf. We also use payment solution providers who work independently and are responsible for the processing of personal data themselves.

Publicly available information

Which personal data that is publicly available on Gymopol depends on your choice of settings in your Account. You can in Settings -> Account Privacy choose between “Private”, “Semi-private” and “Public”. In the feature “Finder” it is possible to search for other members within 100 km from you. The feature “Feed” shows members within 300 km from you and the feature “Explorer” shows reels from members all round the world. If you initiate a contact with another member by using the feature to “Wave” and the other members waves back, you become “contacts”. Once you are a contact to another member, your Account is accessible by the other member as if it is public and you can in the same way access the other member’s account. You can then also have conversations with your contact (exchange messages, images etc.). If one member removes another member as a contact, all conversations between these two members will disappear. You can see a list of all your contacts in “Messenger” under “Contacts”.

If you choose the setting “Private” certain features, such as “Finder” will not be available, and your Account will not be shown to other members in Finder.
