Regarding your personal data processed by RUN:TRACK:RUN you have the right to have it deleted, access it, correct it, receive it in a transferable manner, object to the processing and make complaints about us to the Data Protection Authority in your country if you are an EU/EES citizen.

This Privacy Policy contains information about how RUN:TRACK:RUN, the data controller, processes your personal data in compliance with the General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 (GDPR) and any other subsequent or additional data protection legislation.
If you have any questions in regards to the Privacy Policy or wish to exercise your rights according to the GDPR and this Privacy Policy, please contact us at info@runtrack.run.
Our aim is to not process any personal data if not absolutely necessary. We do not ask for nor process any data that constitutes special categories of personal data. Any personal data that you provide us through customer support emails/messages or direct messages on our social media platforms containing special categories of personal data, or regular personal data that we do not need, will be deleted immediately.
For those instances where processing of personal data is necessary, we use it as follows.
We do not want to process any personal data that we do not need to deliver our service to you or for legal compliance. For personal data processed that is not related to our performance of a contract with you, our user, or that we need to process to comply with the law, we may ask for your consent. For example regarding cookies and in order to send email updates that you have actively requested. Your consent can be withdrawn at any time.
Personal data processed when using cookies on the website is completely anonymized to RUN:TRACK:RUN and we cannot connect it to an individual or IP-address. We have also enabled a setting which prevents Google from connecting the activity on runtrack.run to an individual or IP-address, making it anonymous for Google as well. Therefore, this is not viewed as “personal data” by the definition in the GDPR. If you want to make sure no tracking at all is done, just change the cookie settings in your browser, or use a privacy friendly browser.
For marketing purposes we use social media like Instagram, Facebook and Twitter to spread information about RUN:TRACK:RUN in order to gain more users and increase user retention. We also send newsletters via email to those who have requested to receive them, and in some instances these newsletters will contain information for marketing purposes. When it comes to social media marketing we will at times use sponsored ads which target specific audiences for example those who are interested in running. RUN:TRACK:RUN have no possible way of identifying who the specific users are or who has for example clicked on our ads.
Categories of data subjectsWe use anonymous statistical data and logs to see how many users we have and to improve the Platform and App by finding out which features are used the most. When a user has created an account, however, it is possible to connect App activities to this specific user, since every device gets a unique ID number. This functionality is not used, but since it still is a possibility we chose to disclose it in our Privacy Policy. Observe that all statistics data we collect through the Google Analytics tool is anonymized to us.
Categories of data subjectsWe need to process personal data in order to respond to customer support errands and feedback through email and/or our social media accounts. All customer support- or feedback messages will be deleted once responded to if we do not have a legal obligation to save them. We strongly urge you not to send us any special categories of personal data when in contact with us.
Categories of data subjectsPeople who contact RUN:TRACK:RUN via email or social media to ask questions, report errors or give feedback.
Categories of personal dataProviding customer support is part of our commitment to you when delivering the RUN:TRACK:RUN services, which falls under the legal basis of performance of a contract. However, you choose if you want to contact us and what information you want to share with us, which means that in some cases (for example if you provide us with information about yourself that has no connection to the error-reporting) the legal basis may be consent instead.
For RUN:TRACK:RUN to get feedback and get notified of errors in the App.
Categories of data subjectsRUN:TRACK:RUN App users who are logged in to their accounts and agree to include their email address with their feedback-/error report.
Categories of personal dataFor this purpose we do not need to process any personal data per se. But if you, as a signed in-user, want to attach your email address to your error message (perhaps if you want us to get back to you when a specific problem surrounding your account is solved) you are welcome to. Since this is not required by RUN:TRACK:RUN, the legal basis for processing is consent.
We grant anyone who is interested the opportunity to be a RUN:TRACK:RUN ambassador for their city or region. For that to happen we need to process personal data in order to stay in touch and to promote our ambassadors in the best way possible. To be an ambassador you must provide us with texts describing what running is like in your city, these texts can only be published on RUN:TRACK:RUN.
Categories of data subjectsThe RUN:TRACK:RUN users who are, or want to become, ambassadors.

Categories of data subjectsThe RUN:TRACK:RUN users who have chosen to create an account.
Categories of personal dataThe legal basis for processing of this personal data is performance of a contract, except for when the providing of information is optional for the user - in those cases the legal basis is consent.

If a signed in RUN:TRACK:RUN user adds information texts about, for example, areas or comments on content, for example a track, personal data is processed.

Categories of personal dataPerformance of a contract. Since the purpose of RUN:TRACK:RUN is to build a community and share knowledge, building the community by adding your best tips is part of that.

Should you, however, want comments added by you with your name attached to them deleted, please email us at info@runtrack.run
You can use the RUN:TRACK:RUN app to track your runs. Afterwards you see a summary of your workout and you can have the tcx. or gpx. file sent to you via email, should you wish to upload it to Strava for example. The files are never saved by RUN:TRACK:RUN after the workout is finished.
Categories of data subjectsUsers of the RUN:TRACK:RUN app.
Categories of personal dataPerformance of a contract. Part of our service in the app is to provide you with a tool for tracking your workouts. In order for us to deliver on that, we need to process location data, the speed you are running in etc. We also need to process your email address if you want to send the workout file to yourself afterwards, since we do not save the workouts in our database.

To keep RUN:TRACK:RUN up and running (pun intended) we use a few data processors, these are the following:
Some of our data processors reside in the United States and are part of the Privacy Shield Agreement to ensure data protection. RUN:TRACK:RUN will control that the Privacy Shield Agreements are in place every three months.
The map you search and navigate in when using RUN:TRACK:RUN is provided by Google Maps. Although Google is not a data processor of ours in this regard, we still want to inform you that the places on the map you navigate on the RUN:TRACK:RUN website might become part of the data collected by Google Maps as a whole. In that regard, Google is the data controller and for information about how your personal data is being processed under their control, please see their privacy policy
If you wish to exercise any of your rights below, please contact us at info@runtrack.run
You have the right to access any personal data we process about you as long as we are not prevented by law to disclose them or it is detrimental to another data subject.
You have the right to be completely forgotten by RUN:TRACK:RUN, which means the right to have all the personal data we process about you removed - as long as it is not prohibited by law for us to delete it.
Should any personal data belonging to you that we process be factually incorrect, let us know and we will correct it.
If you do not just want to access your data, but also be able to take it with you to another similar service provider, you can ask for data portability. We will then give you your personal data in a commonly used machine-readable format.
In some cases when you object to our processing of your personal data, we need to investigate the matter to make sure we do not, for example, violate any national- or EU-legislation by deleting all your personal data. While we do this, we have to restrict the processing of the data concerned.
If at any time you feel that your personal data rights have been disregarded, and you have informed RUN:TRACK:RUN of this issue without action being taken, you have the right to make a complaint to your national data protection authority (DPA).
In Sweden, where we are located, the data protection authority is Datainspektionen. But if you are a EU citizen residing in another EU/EES-country you are free to contact your local DPA.
This Privacy Policy may be changed/updated at any time. The date of the latest Privacy Policy change can be found at the top of the page. Major changes that may affect you as a user negatively from a privacy perspective will be communicated through our social media accounts and via email.
