These are:

  • Browser type and version. The specific type and model of Internet browser you are using, such as Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Internet Explorer, along with the specific version of the browser.

The storing of the above-mentioned personal data in log files is necessary for technical reasons in order to provide functioning, attractive and user-friendly Websites and to ensure system security. Such data is not merged with other data sources, and the data is not evaluated for marketing purposes.

Such personal data will be deleted as soon as it is no longer required to achieve the purpose for which it was collected. If personal data is processed for the provision of the website, this is the case when the respective session has ended. If personal data is stored in log files, this is the case after 30 days at the latest. Storage beyond this period is possible. In this case, your IP address is deleted or anonymized so that it is no longer possible to identify you.

There are several ways to create your Avatar through the use of uploading a photo, video, 3D scan or using the measurements or text input options. Regardless of the aforementioned option you choose, you may create an Avatar either on our Website or via a browser app that you can download from our Website. We offer the same Services and functionalities to you regardless of a use via a web browser or the app.

Your Avatar is generated either on the basis of photos and/or video recordings you provide to us or by entering body measurements or text information in an online form. In both cases and depending on the specific Service you request, we may collect and process personal information about your, e.g., appearance, body measurements, body form, height, body movement patterns or voice. This may either refer to your entire body or certain body parts.

Your consent for the processing of Sensitive Data is obtained during the subscription process by way of independent declaration of consent referring to this Privacy Policy.

In addition, we process further data relevant for the provision and billing of our Service, such as subscription number, time of subscription, billing period, payment processing. The processing and storage of the aforementioned data is necessary for the conclusion of the contract as well as its fulfilment and is therefore legitimized on the basis of Article 6 para. 1 sent. 1 lit. b GDPR.

We use the payment tool from the American online payment service provider Stripe Inc. for our website. For customers within the EU, Stripe Payments Europe, Europe Ltd., 1 Grand Canal Street Lower, Grand Canal Dock, Dublin, Ireland (“hereinafter “Stripe”)) is responsible. This means that if you choose Stripe as your payment method, your payment will be processed via Stripe and Stripe will process your wire transfer details.

During a transaction, your name, e-mail address, billing or shipping address and sometimes your transaction history may also be transmitted. This data is required for authentication. Furthermore, Stripe may also collect your name, address, telephone number and country in addition to technical data about your device (such as IP address) for fraud prevention, financial reporting and to be able to offer its own services in full. The use of Stripe is necessary for the fulfilment of our contract and is therefore legitimized on the basis of Article 6 para. 1 sent. 1 lit. b GDPR.

We can analyze how many recipients have opened the newsletter (pixel tracking) and how often which link in the newsletter was clicked on (URL tracking) (hereinafter “Tracking Data”). This enables us to statistically analyze the success or failure of online marketing campaigns.

In regard to our newsletter, each data processing activity only takes place if and insofar as you have expressly consented to it within the merits of Article 6 para. 1 sent. 1 lit. a GDPR. Your consent for this processing of data is obtained during the newsletter subscription process by way of independent consent declaration via double-opt-in mechanism referring to this Privacy Policy.

3f. Development and improvement of our Services

If you use our Services we, subject to your consent, use the uploaded material and information (e.g., photos and videos or entered body measurements) for a limited period of time as so-called training data (hereinafter “Training Data”) in order to develop, test and improve our Services, in particular the underlying artificial intelligence systems with the help of which we create Avatars (hereinafter “AI Systems”).

We will perform this improvement of our Services by fitting the AI Systems’ learnable parameters and adjusting so-called synapse weights that constitute numerical values within the AI System’s algorithm. When we enter Training Data, which may initially qualify as personal data, into an AI System, this information impacts a complex decision tree in a highly abstract form due to the nature of the AI System and influences the numerical value of the synapse weights. Due to the intricate and complex decision tree of the AI System, it is not technically possible to control or manage access to specific information or results entered into the AI System. In particular, the numerical value of the synapse weights does not anymore contain personal data or any other residual information derived from the Training Data.

The use as Training Data only takes place if and insofar as you have expressly consented to it within the merits of Article 6 para. 1 sent. 1 lit. a, 9 para. 2 lit. a GDPR.
