Where do we obtain your personal data from?

LALIGA and Club del Deportista will process the data that you provide through the APP (name, email address, image, and phone number as mandatory fields), as well as other data inferred from your use and activity within the APP (such as your registered user ID, device ID, operating system, device model, and telemetry data—for example, when you click on specific content or how long you remain on a particular element), and your interactions with the communications we send you (for example, clicking on a link or button within a message).

For what purpose do we process your personal data?

Main Purposes:

Club del Deportista and LALIGA will process your personal data for the following primary purposes:

  • Registration and access to the APP: We inform you that the personal data you provide during registration, including your image (photographs and videos from the matches), will be processed by LALIGA and Club del Deportista in order to manage your registration and grant you access to the APP, as well as to provide the services available within it. These services include, among others, making available the photographs taken of you during each football match or event. This assignment process will be carried out manually.
  • Participation in contests and prize draws organized through the APP: Your name and email address will be processed by LALIGA and/or Club del Deportista for the purpose of managing your participation in contests and prize draws conducted via the APP. Once the contest or draw is completed, the results will be communicated via email or directly through the APP. If you are selected as a winner, we will contact you to request additional data such as your national identification number (DNI) and your postal address, in order to deliver the prize.

The legal basis for the above-mentioned purposes is that the processing is necessary for the performance of a contract to which the data subject is a party, pursuant to Article 6.1 b) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). The essential data for these purposes include your name, email address, image, and phone number, as they are required for registration, access to the APP, and participation in prize draws. If you do not provide this data, we will be unable to offer you the requested services.

  • Internal reporting: LALIGA and Club del Deportista will also process aggregated personal data related to APP usage (e.g., user ID, device ID [IDFA or, where applicable, IDFV], device model, operating system, and telemetry data, such as clicks on specific content or the duration of time spent on certain elements), as well as interactions with all types of communications received (e.g., clicking on the content of a communication). These data will be used to create relevant metrics and statistical reports that allow LALIGA and Club del Deportista to analyze how users interact with the APP and its specific sections, and to evaluate users’ level of interest in the APP and its content.

The legal basis for the above-mentioned purpose is that the processing is necessary for the purposes of the legitimate interests pursued by LALIGA and Club del Deportista, in accordance with Article 6.1 f) of the General Data Protection Regulation. Such legitimate interest consists of drawing insights from the data provided and obtained from users, in order to improve the APP and its content based on the interest generated among the different user groups.

Prior to this, we inform you that LALIGA has carried out a proportionality assessment to evaluate the balance between its legitimate interest and the rights and freedoms of its users. You may request a copy of the conclusions of this assessment by contacting lopd@laliga.es.

You have the right to object to this processing at any time, in accordance with the procedure set forth in the section “What are your rights when you provide us with personal data?”

Additional Purposes

Below are the additional purposes for which Club del Deportista and LALIGA may process your personal data:

Club del Deportista:

  1. Electronic communications about the services and features of the Players APP:Your personal data, including your email address, phone number, and APP identifiers, will be processed by Club del Deportista in order to inform you about the services and features available through the APP.

    The legal basis for this processing is the legitimate interest of Club del Deportista, as provided for in Article 6.1.f) of the General Data Protection Regulation, which consists of encouraging increased engagement with the content of the Players APP by sending notifications and communications regarding its services and features.

    You have the right to object to this processing at any time, in accordance with the procedure described in the section “What are your rights when you provide us with personal data?”

  2. Comprehensive profiling: If you give your explicit consent, Club del Deportista will create a profile about you in order to understand how you use the services and features available in the APP, with the aim of sending you personalized communications about them via email, SMS, or push notifications. (For example, if we identify that you have never used a particular service offered through the APP, we may send you a communication explaining the benefits of that service and encouraging you to try it.)

    To do so, the data mentioned above will be addressed to specific users, selected and segmented by Club del Deportista based on the following data sources:

    • The information you provide to us (in this case, your team affiliation and contact details);
    • Your interactions with communications or notifications received (e.g., clicking on a communication’s content);
    • Data inferred from your usage and activity within the APP (such as device ID, registered user ID, and telemetry data—for example, clicking on a specific piece of content or the amount of time spent in a section of the APP).

    Furthermore, Club del Deportista will segment users using the following profiling techniques:

    • Measurement of individual APP performance: Club del Deportista will use information related to clicks, Browse behavior, or time spent within the APP to measure its performance at the individual level. Based on the inferred information and the data you have declared, the company may segment users to deliver content that is most relevant to them. (For instance, if you are a user who has not accessed the discounts section, we may send you communications about that section to encourage you to visit it.)

    The legal basis for this processing is your explicit consent for the specific purposes selected, as provided in Article 6.1 a) of the General Data Protection Regulation. Your personal data will be retained for these purposes until you withdraw the consent you have given.

    You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time, in accordance with the procedure described in the section “What are your rights when you provide us with personal data?”, without affecting the lawfulness of the processing carried out prior to such withdrawal.

    Please note that Club del Deportista uses consulting and technical support providers to carry out advanced profiling.

    Under no circumstances will the profiling carried out by Club del Deportista produce legal effects concerning you or significantly affect you in a similar way.
