Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 02, 2021

Scope
This privacy policy applies to the Coachnick app. Your right to privacy and online security is important. This privacy policy describes the collection, protection, disclosure, and use of your information by the Coachnick app.

By using the Coachnick app you agree to this privacy policy. If you do not agree with any term in this privacy policy, please do not use the app.

Here’s a quick overview:

Coachnick is an app that gives you access to hundreds of ready-made training sessions within seconds for a low flat fee. From soccer coaches for soccer coaches, CoachNick.de supports kids soccer. With the Coachnick app, smart coaches get modern soccer training quickly, directly and everywhere on their cell phones. The full training sessions can be done in one setup and can be filtered by different topics and age ranges. You can save the training sessions on your cell phone to get direct access to „your training“ whenever and wherever you want.

You can create a Coachnick Account or use the app as an anonymous user. When you create an account we ask for your email address. We need this information to create an account so that we can contact you about your account and so you can access your account from anywhere.

For all Coachnick users we collect some other information, such as the type of device they use and country information based on their ip address. We may also collect information about the Trainings and other metadata they add. We use this information to help improve our service.

You have control over the type of information you provide and how we use it. We don’t share your registration or personal information for marketing purposes. We will never share your information with other parties for use other than what’s laid out in this policy without your consent. If you have any questions please contact us at mail@coachnick.de.

Coachnick or its partners or service providers may maintain operations in the United States or any other country, and therefore your personal information may be processed outside the country where you are located. By using and providing information to us, you agree and consent to the transfer, storage, and processing of your information in other countries, including for example outside the European Economic Area. Countries that we transfer your information to may not have data protection laws similar to those of where you are located.
