WOOP as data controller responsible for the collection, processing and use of your personal data relating to your use of the WOOP Platform

The WOOP Platform and the WOOP community are operated by WOOP as data controller. In the following sections, we will inform you about what personal data WOOP collects, processes and uses about you when you use the WOOP Platform and whether and when those data are disclosed to any third parties.

The legal basis for this data processing is the fulfilment of the service requested by you (Art. 6 Para. 1(b) GDPR) in accordance with our Terms of Site and Participation agreed with you. The legal basis for WOOP passing on to third parties is Art. 6 Para. 1(f) GDPR. You have the right to object to this type of data processing at any time. To exercise this right, please follow the instructions as outlined on the profile page of your WOOP account.

You may visit the public area of the WOOP Platform without revealing any information about yourself. In this case, WOOP collects only access data which do not allow any conclusions as to your identity (more details about the use of cookies for web analysis purposes see below Section 9 of this Privacy & Cookie Policy). These non-personally identifiable data are analysed by WOOP to improve its offering and Services. Unless you are logged in as a member of the WOOP community to the member area, WOOP will collect personal data about you only if you voluntarily decide to disclose such data while visiting the WOOP Platform. For instance, it will be necessary that you submit personal data to WOOP (e.g. your name and email address) to be able to use certain features and Services (e.g. our contact form).

  1. Your data will not be used for any other purposes. Unless expressly permitted or required by applicable law, or as indicated otherwise in this Privacy & Cookie Policy, we will neither disclose your personal data to any third parties without your consent nor process your data beyond the scope of this Privacy & Cookie Policy.

  1. In order to use the WOOP Platform and the Services, and to take part in WOOP Campaigns, you need to register on the WOOP Platform as a member of the WOOP community and to create a user account (the “WOOP Account”).

    For this purpose, you have to provide us with certain information about you e.g.:

    • your email address

    • a nickname of your choice (the “User Name”)

    • a password of your choice

    We need this mandatory information

    • to be able to register you as member of the WOOP community

    • to be able to contact you with regard to participation in suitable WOOP Campaigns based on the information you provided and, if applicable, to invite or select you to participate

    • to be able to manage your participation in WOOP Campaigns (e.g. to update or communicate with you about them, such as progress updates, reminders and information about rewards)

    • to be able to communicate with you in connection with your membership of the WOOP community

    The following information is not mandatory but will be necessary for the fulfillment of test or sample products, and to send rewards and prizes awarded to you either during or after a campaign:

    • your full name

    • details of your residential address (e.g. place, country, post code or district, if applicable)

    • mobile phone number

    We consider the processing of your personal data in this context to be necessary for the performance of the contract to which you are party and lawful under Article 6(b) Regulation (EC) 5419/16.

    The following information is not mandatory but help us to tailor invitations to new Campaigns to you:

    • your gender

    • your date of birth

    • occupation

  2. Once you have submitted your registration request, you will receive an email from WOOP to verify your email address and activate your WOOP Account. To complete your registration, please follow the instructions in this email.

  3. Your Account creation only happens at your request. Therefore, we consider the processing of your Account Data to be necessary for the performance of the contract to which you are party and lawful under Article 6(b) Regulation (EC) 5419/16.

  1. As a member of the WOOP community, you can participate in current Campaigns on general topics (e.g. your interests, your job and education or family and home) and on campaign-specific topics, which we usually develop in cooperation with a Campaign Partner.

  2. Participation in those campaigns is voluntary. The more campaigns you complete, the better we can understand what you are interested in and which WOOP Campaigns suit you. If your views or interests change, you can also subsequently make changes to your answers on most of the general topics.

  3. The information you provide us in campaigns on general topics will be stored with your profile and will be used by us only to be able to even better select you, based on the information you provided, for potential participation in specific WOOP Campaigns and to send you invitations for this purpose. In no event will your answers be disclosed to third parties in personally identifiable form, except if expressly requested by you or where you have given your consent. However, we may analyse your answers to surveys on general topics for statistical purposes, and surrender them to third parties, in anonymised form (which does not allow any conclusions as to your identity).

  4. Campaigns are usually run in cooperation with our Campaign Partners. We disclose the answers to questions/missions to the Campaign Partner responsible for the Campaign concerned in anonymised and aggregated form only. Also in this case, we make sure that no conclusions as to your identity can be drawn. WOOP will store your answers on Campaign-specific surveys permanently with your profile only if they are relevant for your future selection for WOOP Campaigns.

In the course of providing services to you, we may collect information that could reveal your racial or ethnic origin, physical or mental health, religious beliefs or alleged commission or conviction of criminal offences. Such information is considered “sensitive personal data” under article 9 Regulation (EC) 5419/16.

We only collect Sensitive Data where you have given your explicit consent, it is necessary, or you have deliberately made it public.

  1. As part of your use of the WOOP Platform, specifically your participation in WOOP Campaigns, you may submit to WOOP and submit different types of content, such as feedback, comments, surveys, images, audio, video files, reviews or other contributions (the “Content”).

  2. Content you share to be public may be published by WOOP on www.woopworld.co.uk. In this case, the Content you shared to be public and, as the case may be, the date and time of submission and/or the User Name chosen by you will be displayed. No other information will be publicly displayed or can be viewed by others, unless you share such information yourself (e.g. as part of a caption of an image you uploaded).

  3. Your Content will be retained by WOOP for as long as the WOOP Campaign concerned, in the context of which your Content was published, will appear on the WOOP Platform. For this period of time, your Content will be publicly available. All Content and related information will be deleted after such period of time, unless relevant limitation periods applicable to the Content require a longer storage of the Content. You may request for justified reasons (e.g. in case of termination of your membership of the WOOP community) that WOOP delete the Content you published.

  4. Moreover, WOOP may make Content you shared to be public available to the Campaign Partner whose products you tested in the WOOP Campaigns concerned to inform the latter about the progress of the Campaign, e.g. as part of result presentations. In this case, the Campaign Partner will only receive the Content you shared and, as the case may be, the User Name chosen by you. Only with your explicit consent will we share any other information, such as your real name. Therefore, you should make sure at all times that your User Name is not the same as your real name. The Campaign Partner may use the Content you shared only for its internal evaluation of the WOOP Campaign concerned and may not publish the same or use it for any other purposes without your consent.

  5. When sharing your Content, you may further be offered to optionally consent that:

    (i) WOOP may use the Content you shared (including your chosen User Name) in any form (e.g. in printed material, such as flyers, in-store, public relations, trade fair banners and brochures, or in digital form, such as email newsletters, presentations, online advertising and banners, social media, etc.) to advertise the WOOP community and WOOP’s offering;

  6. No other information will be published or disclosed. In particular, WOOP will never without your consent publish your real name and/or disclose it to the Campaign Partner.

  7. Your consent to the use described above is voluntary and you may withdraw it at any time by sending a respective request to the contact information provided under Part 2, clause 3. You may access the wording of the consent declarations you have made, if any, at any time by sending a respective request to the contact information provided under Section 13.
