FISU owns and manages a website //krikyalive.com/ (the “Website”), which we use to allow Organising Committee and similar institutions around the world to highlight the sport events they host. When handling personal information about you and your institution, FISU will act as the data controller.

Collection of data and information about you

When doing so, we process the data in accordance with our legitimate or private interest in providing you with a great experience in our Website, and where necessary, to comply with our legal obligations and in accordance with applicable data protection laws, in particular with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection and its Federal Ordinance (“DPA” and “DPO”).
The information collected may include (1) user contact data such as name, position, titles, phone number and e-mail address, (2) the browser type and versions used, (3) the operating system you use to access our site, (4) the website from which you reach our website (referrer website), (5) the sub-pages you visit on our website, (6) the date and time of your visit, (7) an IP address, (8) your internet service provider, and (9) other similar data and information that serve to prevent risks in the event of an attack on our IT infrastructure.
This data and information is needed to (1) contact you for further information, (2) ensure the content of our website is displayed correctly, (3) optimise the content of our website, (4) guarantee the lasting functionality of our IT infrastructure and our website technology, and to (5) be able to provide the law enforcement agencies with the necessary information in the event of a cyberattack.
In addition, FISU may statistically analyse this data and information in order to enhance the privacy and data security of its IT infrastructure. The data and information collected is only processed for the stated purposes and is subsequently deleted.
With whom do we share information about you
Only limited individuals can access your personal data, which may include the following:
- our duly authorised employees, consultants or workers;
- approved third parties, such as IT service providers or auditors;
- other users of the Website either: (a) on a voluntary basis; or (b) where a feature of the Website allows other users to access information that is already publicly available or that you decide to transmit to us in compliance with applicable data protection laws.
Cross-border personal data transfer
When we receive information about you, we will process your personal information in Switzerland, where the Swiss DPA and DPO principles may slightly differ from your jurisdiction. However, as described below, Switzerland has a comprehensive data protection legal framework which ensures a very high standard for the protection of personal data and privacy of individuals.
a) Transfer within the EEA, Switzerland and approved countries
Switzerland is recognized by the EU Commission as a country with an adequate level of protection equivalent to the European privacy laws, which includes Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR). If you are located in a country of the European Economic Area (EEA) or in a country that is recognized as having an adequate legislation for the protection of personal data in your country, your rights to privacy are likely to rely on appropriate guarantees with regard to cross-border personal data transfer to Switzerland.
b) Transfer to third country jurisdictions
If you are located in a country, which Switzerland does not recognize as having an adequate level of protection, we will rely on appropriate safeguards with you to send personal data to your country of residence. Most of the time, you will share such personal information with us, via the Website, on a voluntary basis, for the purpose of entering into a contract with FISU or on the basis of your consent.
c) Disclosure with third parties
In certain limited cases, authorized third parties outside our organization may access your data. These may include:
- third parties who provide us with services for the administration of the Website (such as IT services in the event of a breakdown or for the maintenance of our Website);
- other third parties, such as auditors, data centers or other authorised third parties only when required by law or by a court decision, to defend legal claims or in case of an investigation by a supervisory authority;
Where engaging third parties, we have entered into agreements with them for the processing of your personal data about you so that such processing is carried out in accordance with our instructions, in a confidential, secure, transparent manner, to protect your privacy rights and comply with the application data protection laws.
