Declarations of Consent for Photo and Film Recordings

If you come to us as a surfer or bodyboarder, we not only want to offer you great surf or bodyboard sessions, but also make your day with us an all-round experience from which you can also take photos or videos of your rides home with you. We therefore ask you to give your consent below to the creation, processing, storage, presentation and making available to the public of photos and film recordings by us.

You hereby give Surftown GmbH your consent to take photos and videos of you while surfing or bodyboarding as part of a surf or bodyboard session and to process them for the purpose of assigning and compiling recording sequences of your rides and to store them on a platform (“Platform”) that is only publicly accessible to a limited extent. The entire surf or bodyboard session is first photographed or recorded on video and then the respective images and videos are individually assigned to you and the other participants in your surf or bodyboard session with the help of the software-based evaluation of physical characteristics of the participants. In this way, with the support of artificial intelligence, we create a photo and video file from your rides in the respective surf or bodyboard session, which only contains recordings of yourself (“Session Film”), and store the Session Film on the Platform for a period of 4 days.

Following your surf or bodyboard session, we will show the Session Film on monitors or similar devices in the surf park and send you an e-mail with an Internet link to the Platform, which you can also use to view the Session Film and then decide to purchase it. Via a corresponding link, all other participants in your surf or bodyboard session also have access to all files stored on the Platform for this surf or bodyboard session, which we create in the aforementioned manner for each participant in the surf or bodyboard session. You could therefore also view the Session Film that is intended for you. We will ask all participants to only access the file and only purchase the session film of the surf or bodyboard session that contains the footage of the respective participant. However, we cannot guarantee that all participants will adhere to these guidelines. However, please be assured that your name or other personal data will not be published by us, not even as source text to the photos and/or videos. We will not publish the photos or videos of your rides or your Session Film in print media, on websites, in social media or other publications, nor will we use them for advertising or marketing purposes. Your Session Film will be automatically deleted after the storage period of 4 days has expired.

You hereby also consent to the screening of your Session Film on monitors or similar devices in the surf park and to making your Session Film available to the public on the Platform for the purpose of viewing and purchasing the recordings of your surf or bodyboard session, whereby both access to your Session Film and its purchase would also be possible for other participants in your surf or bodyboard session. If you do not agree to the storage and making available of your Session Film to the public on the Platform and are therefore not interested in viewing and possibly purchasing your rides after completing your surf or bodyboard session, you have the option of requesting the deletion of your Session Film from a member of our team at the cash desk before leaving the surf park, which will then be arranged immediately.

Status: June 2024; subject to change.
