This privacy policy covers and applies to the following categories of data subjects:
• Professional athletes who use Heely ́s service for storing and sharing their personal data.
• Other users who use our service (e.g., as a result of professional athlete user’s invitation).
• Persons who receive Heely’s marketing communication.
We collect and process the following personal data in order to provide, manage, improve, protect, and promote Heely’s service:
• User account data. We collect, and associate with your user account, the personal data you provide to us in connection with creating a user account, updating your user information and your security or privacy settings. Such personal data may include your name, email, phone number and the sports club or similar organization that you represent.
• Your material. Heely’s services are intended to allow you, as a professional athlete, to have a single place of storage for your medical data, including relevant files, documents, messages, comments, etc. (“Material”), which you can access and share with parties that you have authorized. To make this possible, we store, process and share your Material as well as other personal data related to it. Such related data includes your user account data which makes it easier to share your Material with authorized parties.
• Authorized third parties. You choose which authorized third parties (e.g., medical
professionals, physicians, sports agents, etc.) may access your Material. If you choose to share Material with such parties, we will store their user and contact data, service usage data and device information on our servers. You have always direct access to see and limit these authorizations when ever you want.
• Service usage data. We collect data related to how you use Heely’s service, including actions taken in your user account (like sharing invitations as well as viewing, creating oruploading Material). Usage data is processed in order to provide and manage Heely’s service as well as to protect our users.

Heely’s service is designed to improve professional athletes’ informational self-determination in relation to Material which contains their medical data. This means that through Heely’s service professional athlete users can exercise full control over their Material, including the rights granted under applicable data protection legislation.
Medical data is stored in Heely ́s servers.

Only you, as a professional athlete user, can decide which other users or parties can access and otherwise process your medical data in identifiable format. Heely does not have this right. The Material is heavily encrypted and stored in a way that combining the health data to the concerned professional athlete is very difficult.
Heely may perform statistical analysis on medical data. However, this is also made so that individual athletes' and their medical data cannot be recognized or identified.
