e. Lawful Bases for Processing

The processing of your personal data may be based on the following grounds:

Please note that Sportradar only relies on the legitimate interests ground if the reason for processing your personal data is fair and lawful. Where we want to rely on legitimate interests as a legal basis for processing, we will carry out a balancing test between our legitimate interests and your privacy rights.

The legal grounds for processing your personal data vary according to the circumstances and context for the collection. We do not process your personal data without a legal justification.

We use of appropriate security measures to ensure the protection of your personal data, including protection against unauthorised or unlawful processing and against accidental loss, destruction or damage.

The retention period for each of the cookies Sportradar uses (whether its own or on our behalf by third parties) is stated on our Cookie Notice.

Sportradar also maintains robust data retention policies for the personal data we process that details the retention periods based on our analysis of how long the specific data is reasonably required for legal or business purposes. When we no longer need personal data for the specific purposes, we securely delete or destroy it. Aggregated data, which cannot identify a device/browser (or individual) and is used for purposes of reporting and analysis, is maintained for as long as commercially necessary.

In addition to the description of how we may disclose your personal data for each user type (please see the How we may share information section for your user type), we may also disclose personal data as follows:

• within the family of companies controlled by Sportradar for internal reasons, primarily for business and operational purposes, as well as to their subcontractors or other trusted third parties;
• if we go through a business transition, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, or sale of all or a portion of our assets, your personal data will likely be among the assets transferred;
• when legally required to do so (e.g. to cooperate with law enforcement investigations or other legal proceedings).

In addition, we combine your personal data with those of other users in order to share aggregate user statistics with third parties in aggregated and anonymized form.

If your personal data is collected within the EU/EEA and transferred to countries outside the EU/EEA in which applicable laws do not offer the same level of data protection, we ensure similar protection and put in place, for example, one of these safeguards:

• we will transfer your personal data to countries that have been found to provide an adequate level of protection for personal data;
• we may also use specific approved contracts with our partners that are based in countries outside the EU/EEA. These contracts give your personal data the same protection it has in the EU/EEA;
• where we partner with companies in the United States, we may transfer Personal Data to them if they are part of the Privacy Shield scheme, which requires them to provide a similar level of protection of your personal data to what is required in the EU/EEA.

You have the following data protection rights:

• Right to Access

You have the right to obtain from us a confirmation as to whether we process your personal data. Should we process your personal data, you have the right to request access to your personal data and to obtain further information regarding the processing of your personal data.

We reserve the right to refuse to give effect to a request to exercise any of the above data protection rights if we are unable to ascertain your identity.

Sportradar has implemented appropriate technical and organisational measures to ensure a level of security appropriate to the risk involved in order to protect your personal data against a breach of security leading to the accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorized disclosure of, or access to, your personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed.

Our employees are required to keep personal data confidential. We will only transfer your personal data to third parties as described in Section 10 (Data Transfers outside the EU/EEA) of this Privacy Notice.

Some browsers transmit Do Not Track (DNT) signals to websites. Sportradar does not currently alter, change, or respond to DNT requests or signals from these browsers. We will continue to monitor industry activity in this area and reassess our DNT practices as necessary. In the meantime, you can use the range of other tools we provide to control data collection and use.
