The processing of personal data takes place for the provision of our contractual obligations within the scope of community use.

2.3 To whom is your data passed on?

We transfer personal data to contracted processors, provided this is necessary within the scope of the above purposes.

All processors are contractually obliged to treat your data confidentially and to process it only within the scope of the mandate given by us.

We use the following processors within the scope of the aforementioned purposes:

  • DigitalOcean LLC (USA, Standard Contractual Clauses (SCC) concluded): Hosting
  • Google Ireland Limited (Ireland): Traffic analysis
  • Brevo (Sendinblue SAS, France): Customer Relationship Management (CRM)

2.5 Use of external services for registration (Social Login) and calendar synchronization

To simplify registration and use of the platform, we offer the option to log in via external identity providers (“Social Login”) or to synchronize calendar functions. The use of these functions is voluntary and is based exclusively on an express consent in accordance with Art. 6 Para. 1 lit. a GDPR.

The following services may be used for this purpose:

  • Google Ireland Limited / Google LLC: Login via Google Login (OAuth) and optional synchronization of calendar data (Google Calendar). Identity data (name, email address, profile ID) as well as—if the calendar function is activated—calendar availabilities and appointments are processed. Data protection information: https://policies.google.com/privacy
  • Microsoft Corporation (Outlook / Microsoft 365 / Microsoft Graph): Login via Microsoft-Login (OAuth) and optional calendar synchronization. Identity data and—if activated—calendar availabilities are processed. Data protection information: https://privacy.microsoft.com/
  • LinkedIn Ireland Unlimited Company: Login via LinkedIn-Login (OAuth) for identity confirmation. Identity data such as name, email address, and LinkedIn profile ID are processed. Data protection information: https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy

2.6 Use of Google services and Google user data

We use certain Google services to operate Yumi42. When you use these features, the following data is accessed and used.

Google Analytics:

  • Data accessed: Pseudonymous usage data for example pages viewed, clicks and session duration, technical identifiers such as cookies, device and browser information and approximate location based on IP address.
  • Data usage: We use this data to analyse how Yumi42 is used, to improve content and performance and to measure the effectiveness of our marketing activities. We evaluate this data only in aggregated or pseudonymous form, not to identify individual users.

Sign in with Google:

  • Data accessed: Your Google account ID, name, primary email address and, if available, profile picture.
  • Data usage: We use this data to create and manage your Yumi42 account, to authenticate you when you log in with Google, to prefill parts of your profile and to send you service related communications about your account and bookings. We do not sell this data to third parties.

Google Calendar synchronisation:

  • Data accessed: The list of your Google calendars including names and IDs so that you can select which calendar to connect, your calendar time zone and availability information and event data for sessions that are created or managed through yumi42 including event ID, title, description, start and end time, location and participants.
  • Data usage: We use this data to show your availability on Yumi42, to avoid double bookings and to create, update or cancel calendar events for your Yumi42 sessions in the calendar you selected. We do not use Google Calendar data for advertising and we do not analyse calendar events that are unrelated to sessions booked through yumi42 beyond what is technically necessary to determine availability.

Our use of information received from Google APIs and any transfer of that information to other apps complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy including the Limited Use requirements.

2.7 Storage, protection and sharing of Google user data

We store Google user data (for example your Google account ID, email address, calendar event IDs and OAuth tokens) only to the extent necessary to provide the Google based functions described in this Privacy Policy and to comply with legal retention obligations. OAuth tokens and other credentials are stored in encrypted form. If you disconnect Google services from your Yumi42 account or delete your Yumi42 account, we delete or anonymise the associated Google derived data and tokens once any mandatory retention periods have expired.

We protect Google user data with appropriate technical and organisational measures. In particular, we use encryption in transit (for example TLS) and encryption at rest for our production databases and backups, apply role based access controls on a need to know basis, and log access to production systems. We separate production and development environments and avoid using real Google user data for testing wherever possible. We regularly review our security measures and update them where necessary. We do not use Google user data to develop, improve, or train generalized AI or machine learning models.

We do not sell Google user data. We do not transfer or disclose Google user data to third parties for purposes other than providing and operating Yumi42, fulfilling our legal obligations, or where you explicitly request or consent to such transfer. Google user data is shared only with Google itself, when we create or update content in your Google account on your behalf, and with our infrastructure and service providers that process this data on our behalf under data processing agreements and only for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

3. If you subscribe to our customer or coach e-newsletter

4. If you, as a customer (and as their legal guardian), make use of our services or the services of the coaches

We operate a platform for customers seeking support and for coaches. Therefore, platform contracts are concluded with customers and placement contracts with coaches via our platform; customers and coaches also conclude coaching contracts directly.

The coaching units take place based on the coaching contracts between coaches and customers via Google Meet online video conferences (the Google service provider automatically sends meeting links and automatically records participation in the conferences).

To ensure transparency, this data protection information also includes information regarding the processing of the customer's personal data by the coaches regarding their fulfillment of the coaching with the customers.

Since this processing is largely handled via our platform, we act as a data processor for the coaches in this regard.

Insofar as the processing of data by Yumi42 is required to fulfill the contractual obligations of Yumi42, Yumi42 acts on its own responsibility.

Unless explicitly distinguished below, the information applies both to the processing by us as the data controller and to the processing by the coaches as data controllers.

4.1 What data do we process (unless otherwise indicated, this also includes the coaches) and where does this data come from?

We process the personal data that you, as a customer, provide to us for the provision of services. This provision by you is contractually necessary for the conclusion of the agreements between you (as a customer) and us and between you and the coach for the agreed service provision, and also legally necessary, in particular to fulfill our accounting obligations.

This also includes any data in connection with the payment for our services (see below on the payment service provider STRIPE).

If you do not provide us with your corresponding personal data, we cannot conclude a contract with you or fulfill it.

Furthermore, we process personal data that we generate about you or collect from the mentioned sources within the scope of our service provision, namely:

  • Service provision data for billing purposes (generated by us or meeting participation data generated by Google)
  • Invoice data for fulfilling our accounting obligations (generated by us or payment confirmations from STRIPE)
  • Any correspondence and telephone contacts (support inquiries) in connection with the service provision by Yumi42

4.2 What is the legal basis for data processing?
