2. scope of this privacy policy

  • Automatically when you visit our website or use the membership platform; and
  • From service providers involved in delivering the website, membership, payment, and communication services.

3. HOW WE COLLECT PERSONAL DATA

Our public website is created and hosted using Showit, provided by Showit, Inc.

  • IP address;
  • Date and time of access;
  • Pages and files requested;
  • Browser and device information;
  • Operating system;
  • Referring page or website; and
  • Technical error and security information.

This processing is necessary to provide the website and protect it against technical failures, misuse, and unauthorized access.

The legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interests are operating a secure, reliable, and functional website.

Showit may use hosting and infrastructure providers located outside the European Economic Area. More information is available in Showit’s Privacy Policy.

We use this information to answer your request and provide customer support.

The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR where your message concerns a current or potential membership or other contractual matter. For general inquiries, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Our legitimate interest is responding to communications concerning SSC and its services.

Our business email is hosted using Spacemail, provided by Spaceship. Email content and associated technical data are therefore processed through this provider. Spacemail may automatically scan messages for spam, malware, phishing, and other harmful activity.

Please do not send sensitive medical or health information by email unless it is necessary for us to address your request.

5. CONTACTING US

Our membership platform, video library, account system, checkout, and member features are provided through Uscreen, operated by Uscreen.TV, LLC.

Security, fraud prevention, service administration, and protection of our legal rights are based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Uscreen processes subscriber data on our behalf as a data processor. Uscreen and its subprocessors may process personal data in the United States and other countries outside the European Economic Area, subject to the safeguards described in Section 15. More information is available in Uscreen’s Privacy Policy.

Certain account information is required to create an account or purchase a membership. If you do not provide that information, we may be unable to create your account, process your membership, or provide the requested service.

6. USCREEN MEMBERSHIP PLATFORM

If you use community, commenting, or other interactive features, your profile information and the content you submit may be visible to other members.

Do not publish medical information, payment details, private contact information, or other sensitive personal data in public or member-visible areas.

Community content is processed to provide the interactive membership features you choose to use. The legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.

We may remove or restrict content where necessary to enforce our Terms of Service, protect other users, maintain platform security, or comply with legal obligations. The legal bases are Articles 6(1)(c) and 6(1)(f) GDPR.

7. COMMUNITY CONTENT

Membership payments are processed through Stripe.

When you enter payment information at checkout, it is transmitted to Stripe. Depending on the payment method, Stripe may process:

  • Name;
  • Billing address;
  • Email address;
  • Country;
  • Payment-card or payment-account information;
  • Transaction amount and currency;
  • Tax-related information;
  • IP address and device information; and
  • Fraud-prevention and authentication information.

SSC does not receive or store your complete payment-card number. We may receive limited transaction information, such as the payment status, transaction amount, payment method, card type, expiration information, and the last four digits of the card.

The legal basis for processing payments is Article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Tax and accounting records are processed under Article 6(1)(c) GDPR. Fraud prevention and the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims may be based on Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

Stripe may act as our processor for certain activities and as an independent controller for activities it determines itself, including regulatory compliance, fraud prevention, and payment-network obligations.

More information is available in Stripe’s Privacy Policy and Stripe’s Privacy Center.

Operational emails may be sent through Uscreen or our email provider.

9. TRANSACTIONAL AND MEMBERSHIP EMAILS

We send promotional emails only where you have consented or where applicable law otherwise permits us to contact existing customers.

Where marketing is based on consent, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. Where communication with an existing customer is legally permitted without separate consent, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(f) GDPR together with the applicable requirements of German unfair-competition law.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails at any time by using the unsubscribe link in the email or contacting hello@saltedstrengthclub.com.

Unsubscribing from promotional emails does not prevent us from sending account, billing, security, or other service-related messages.

10. marketing communications

Our website and membership platform use cookies and similar technologies.

Essential technologies

Essential cookies are used to:

Deliver website and platform functionality;
Maintain login sessions;
Remember account authentication;
Provide checkout and payment functionality;
Maintain video progress;
Support security and fraud prevention;
Determine country information required for tax purposes; and
Preserve user-requested settings.

These technologies are necessary to provide services expressly requested by the user and cannot always be disabled without preventing the website or membership platform from functioning.

Where personal data is processed through essential technologies, the legal basis is Article 6(1)(b) or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR. Access to or storage of information on a user’s device is based on Section 25(2) TDDDG where the technology is strictly necessary.

Uscreen uses essential server-side cookies for account access, sessions, checkout, viewing progress, tax-location information, and platform operation.

Nonessential technologies

Analytics, advertising, or other nonessential technologies will be used only after you have given the required consent.

Consent is based on Section 25(1) TDDDG and Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing that occurred before withdrawal.

11. cookies and similar technologies

We use Google Analytics 4 on our public Showit website to understand how visitors find and use the website, evaluate website performance, and improve our content and navigation.

Google Analytics is provided by:

Google Ireland Limited
Gordon House
Barrow Street
Dublin 4
Ireland

Depending on your consent choices, Google Analytics may process information such as:

  • Pages visited;
  • Date, time, and duration of visits;
  • Interactions with website content;
  • Referring websites and campaign information;
  • Browser, device, operating-system, and screen information;
  • General geographic information;
  • Technical network and online-identifier information; and
  • Events relating to navigation and website use.

Google Analytics is configured to operate according to the consent status communicated through CookieScript. Analytics cookies and analytics storage are not enabled unless you provide the required consent. If analytics consent is not granted, analytics storage remains denied and Google Analytics operates only in the limited manner supported by the configured consent settings.

The legal basis for consent-based analytics processing is Article 6(1)(a) GDPR. Access to or storage of analytics information on your device is based on Section 25(1) TDDDG.

You may withdraw or change your consent at any time through the cookie settings control on our website. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing performed before consent was withdrawn.

Our current Google Analytics data-retention settings are:

  • Event data: 14 months; and
  • User data: 14 months.

These retention settings apply to the relevant user-level and event-level data maintained through Google Analytics and do not necessarily affect aggregated reporting data.

Google Signals and user-provided data collection are not currently enabled. We do not currently use Google Analytics to submit customer email addresses or other user-provided identifying information to Google for analytics or advertising matching.

Our Google Analytics configuration applies to the public Showit website. It does not currently provide analytics tracking inside the separately hosted Uscreen membership platform.

Google and its subprocessors may process data outside the European Economic Area. Such transfers are made using an applicable adequacy decision, including the EU–US Data Privacy Framework where available, or appropriate safeguards such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses.

More information is available in Google’s Privacy Policy and its information about Google Analytics data safeguards.

13. GOOGLE ANALYTICS

Personal data may be disclosed to the following recipients where necessary:

  • Showit, for website hosting and delivery;
  • Uscreen, for membership accounts, checkout, video delivery, community features, and platform administration;
  • Stripe, for payments, tax-related checkout information, authentication, and fraud prevention;
  • Spacemail/Spaceship, for email hosting and communication;
  • CookieScript, for cookie-consent management;
  • Google Ireland Limited and its subprocessors, for consent-based analytics on the public Showit website;
  • Meta, in connection with Instagram features and links;
  • Hosting, content-delivery, security, and technical subcontractors used by these providers;
  • Professional advisers, including accountants, tax advisers, insurers, and legal advisers, where necessary;
  • Public authorities, courts, regulators, and tax authorities where disclosure is legally required; and
  • Other parties where necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

We do not sell personal data.

15. service providers and other recipients

Some service providers or their subprocessors are located outside Germany or the European Economic Area, particularly in the United States.

Where personal data is transferred to a country outside the European Economic Area, the transfer is based on an applicable European Commission adequacy decision or appropriate safeguards under Article 46 GDPR, such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, together with supplementary safeguards where required.

You may contact us for additional information about the safeguards relevant to a particular transfer.

16. international data transfers

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the relevant purpose or as required by law.

In particular:

  • Account and membership information is generally retained while the account or membership remains active.
  • If an Uscreen account is permanently deleted, identifying subscriber information is scheduled for deletion or anonymization through Uscreen’s account-deletion process, subject to legally required records.
  • Payment, invoice, tax, and accounting information is retained for the applicable statutory retention periods. Depending on the type of document, German law may require retention for six, eight, or ten years.
  • Customer-support and general correspondence is generally retained until the inquiry has been resolved and may then be retained for up to three years where necessary to establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.
  • Marketing information is retained until consent is withdrawn, an objection is made, or the information is no longer required. Limited suppression-list information may be retained to ensure that an unsubscribe request continues to be respected.
  • Google Analytics event data and user data are currently configured to be retained for 14 months. These settings apply to the relevant user-level and event-level data maintained through Google Analytics and do not necessarily affect aggregated reporting data.
  • CookieScript stores the visitor’s cookie preference on the visitor’s device for the period configured through CookieScript or until the visitor changes the preference, withdraws consent, or clears the relevant browser data.
  • Technical and security information is retained only for as long as required to maintain security, diagnose errors, prevent misuse, or establish legal claims.

Deletion may be suspended where information is required for legal proceedings, regulatory obligations, tax audits, or the defense of legal claims.

17. DATA RETENTION

Subject to the applicable legal requirements, you have the right to:

  • Request access to your personal data under Article 15 GDPR;
  • Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete data under Article 16 GDPR;
  • Request deletion under Article 17 GDPR;
  • Request restriction of processing under Article 18 GDPR;
  • Receive eligible data in a portable format under Article 20 GDPR;
  • Object to processing based on legitimate interests under Article 21 GDPR;
  • Withdraw consent at any time under Article 7(3) GDPR; and
  • Lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority under Article 77 GDPR.

Where processing is based on consent, withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of processing performed before the withdrawal.

You may exercise your rights by emailing hello@saltedstrengthclub.com. We may request information necessary to verify your identity.

We will respond without undue delay and generally within one month. This period may be extended by up to two additional months where permitted by the GDPR because of the complexity or number of requests. If an extension is necessary, we will notify you within the initial one-month period.

18. YOUR DATA PROTECTION RIGHTS

Where we process personal data on the basis of Article 6(1)(f) GDPR, you have the right to object to that processing for reasons arising from your particular situation.

Where personal data is processed for direct marketing, you may object at any time. If you object to direct marketing, your personal data will no longer be used for that purpose.

19. RIGHT TO OBJECT

You may lodge a complaint with a data-protection supervisory authority.

The supervisory authority responsible for private businesses established in Bavaria is:

Bavarian State Office for Data Protection Supervision
Bayerisches Landesamt für Datenschutzaufsicht (BayLDA)

Promenade 18
91522 Ansbach
Germany

Website: www.lda.bayern.de

You may also contact another competent supervisory authority, particularly in the EU Member State of your habitual residence, place of work, or the place of the alleged infringement.

20. RIGHT TO LODGE A COMPLAINT

SSC does not make decisions about members based solely on automated processing that produce legal or similarly significant effects.

Payment providers may independently use automated fraud-prevention and authentication systems under their own legal responsibilities.

21. AUTOMATED DECISION-MAKING

We and our service providers use appropriate technical and organizational measures intended to protect personal data against accidental loss, misuse, unauthorized access, alteration, and disclosure.

These measures may include encrypted connections, access restrictions, authentication controls, backups, and security monitoring.

No online service can guarantee absolute security.

22. DATA SECURITY

SSC memberships and services are intended for adults aged 18 and older.

We do not knowingly offer memberships to or collect account information from children. If we become aware that an account belongs to a person under 18, we may close the account and delete the associated information, subject to applicable legal obligations.

23. CHILDREN

We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, providers, legal obligations, or data-processing practices change.

The current version will be published on this page with the date of the latest update. Where required, material changes will also be communicated through email or the membership platform.
