Able Privacy Statement

This is a translation of the Dutch privacy statement. If the versions differ, the Dutch version prevails.

Able is a mobile fitness app by Media Knights. In this privacy statement we explain which personal data Able processes, why we do so, with whom data may be shared and which rights you have.

1. Who is responsible?

Media Knights is the controller for the processing of personal data within Able.

Media Knights
Middelhovenweg 38
1502 ED Zaandam
The Netherlands
Chamber of Commerce (KvK) number: 65869680
Email: info@mediaknights.nl

This privacy statement applies to the Able app, its API and the services offered through Able.

2. Which data does Able process?

Account data

When you register an account, we process:

We do not store your password in readable form. The password is cryptographically hashed before it is stored.

You can also use Able as a guest. A random user number is created for a guest account. You do not need to provide a name or email address.

Profile and training data

To tailor workouts to your situation and progress, Able may process the following data:

Able does not ask for your exact date of birth, weight, height, heart rate, location or medical records.

Pregnancy profile

If you choose to, you can indicate that you are pregnant and which trimester you are in. Able uses this information solely to filter exercises and compose safer workouts.

A pregnancy profile may be data concerning health and is therefore a special category of personal data. We only process it on the basis of your explicit consent. Filling it in is voluntary. You can withdraw this consent at any time by setting the pregnancy profile to ‘none’ in the settings. Able will then no longer use this information for future workouts.

Able does not give medical advice. The app does not replace a doctor, physiotherapist, midwife or other healthcare provider.

Social features

When you use the friends and challenge features, we may process:

Your email address is not shown to other users. Searching by email address only returns a result on an exact match.

Purchase data

When you make an in-app purchase, we may process:

Payment details such as your credit card number or bank account number are not received by Media Knights. Payment is handled by Apple or Google under their own terms and privacy policies.

Technical and security data

When the API and servers are used, technical data may be processed automatically, such as:

This data is used to keep Able available, secure and reliable and to investigate abuse, fraud and technical failures.

Analytics data

Able may process pseudonymous usage events, such as opening a screen, starting or completing a workout and using a feature. This data helps us fix bugs and improve the app.

Analytics events are linked to a technical user number. We do not use this data to sell health profiles or for third-party advertising.

Advertising data

Able uses Google AdMob to show ads. Depending on your consent, device settings and region, Google may process data such as:

Google may use this data to deliver, secure, measure and, if you have consented, personalise ads.

Able uses the Google User Messaging Platform to ask for consent where required. If you do not consent to personalised ads, non-personalised or limited ads may still be shown. Technical data, including the IP address, may still be necessary for delivering and securing ads.

You can reopen your ad preferences via the privacy or ad settings in Able when Google indicates this option must be available.

More information about Google's processing can be found in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services and the Google Privacy Policy.

3. Why do we process data?

We process personal data for the following purposes and on the following GDPR legal bases:

Performance of the contract

We process data needed to:

Consent

We ask for consent for:

You can always withdraw your consent. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of earlier processing.

Legitimate interest

We have a legitimate interest in:

We limit this processing to what is reasonably necessary and weigh our interests against your privacy interests.

Legal obligation

Some data may be processed or retained when necessary to comply with tax, administrative, legal or regulatory obligations.

4. Automated adjustment of workouts

Able uses your profile, preferences, training history and feedback to automatically adjust exercises and difficulty. This may constitute profiling within the meaning of the GDPR.

This adjustment relates solely to the composition of workouts. Able does not make decisions that have legal effects or similarly significantly affect you. You can change your training preferences and profile data yourself.

5. With whom do we share data?

We do not sell your personal data.

Data may be processed by service providers necessary for Able, including:

These parties process data under their own privacy terms or on behalf of Media Knights under appropriate agreements.

We may share data when required by law, necessary for legal proceedings or needed to protect the rights, safety and property of Media Knights, Able users or others.

6. Processing outside the European Economic Area

Some suppliers, including Google, Apple and their group companies, may process personal data outside the European Economic Area.

When personal data is transferred to a country without an adequate level of protection, we or our suppliers use a legally permitted transfer mechanism, such as an adequacy decision or standard contractual clauses approved by the European Commission.

7. How long do we keep data?

We do not keep personal data longer than necessary:

When you delete your account, your account data and linked progress are deleted or irreversibly anonymised. Data may remain in secured backups for up to fourteen days. These backups are only used for recovery after a technical incident and are overwritten on the normal schedule.

8. Security

Media Knights takes appropriate technical and organisational measures to protect personal data. These include:

No method of storage or transmission is completely without risk. In the event of a security incident, we act in accordance with applicable legal obligations.

9. Your privacy rights

Insofar as the GDPR provides, you have the right to:

In Able you can export your data, change profile data and delete your account. You can also send a request to info@mediaknights.nl.

We may ask for additional information to verify your identity. We will in principle respond within one month. Exercising your privacy rights is normally free of charge.

You can lodge a complaint with the Dutch Data Protection Authority (Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens).

10. Children

Able is intended for people aged sixteen and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under sixteen.

If we discover that a child under sixteen has provided personal data without valid consent, we will delete this data as soon as possible. A parent or legal guardian can contact us about this via info@mediaknights.nl.

11. Data on your device

Able works partly offline. Training data, settings and an access token may be stored locally on your device. As soon as an internet connection is available, relevant data may be synchronised with the Able server.

You can remove local data by deleting your account in Able and removing the app from your device. Removing the app alone does not automatically delete a registered account on the server.

12. Changes

We may update this privacy statement when Able, our data processing or the law changes. The most recent version is published at:

https://ablecalisthenics.com/privacy/

We will inform users of important changes via the app or another appropriate method.
