Privacy Policy
Last updated: July 2026
What We Collect
When you contact a club or book a trial class through our form, we collect your email address. The form only submits after you actively tick the consent checkbox.
When you take the quiz, we store your quiz result (your answers and recommended martial art) under a randomly generated link so you can share and revisit it. The result itself contains no name or email; if you afterwards contact a club through the form, your result can, however, be linked to the email you provide.
When you search for a city on the map, your search text is sent to our map provider (Mapbox) to find the location. We do not store your precise location.
If you have accepted analytics cookies, we collect anonymous usage statistics (e.g. which pages are visited and where in the quiz users drop off).
Legal Basis for Processing
Consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a)): your email is processed only after you tick the consent checkbox in the contact form, and analytics data is collected only after acceptance in the cookie banner.
Legitimate interest (GDPR Art. 6(1)(f)): baseline security measures such as rate limiting and abuse protection, necessary to run the service safely.
Cookies & Consent
We use two cookie categories: necessary (required for the site to work, including remembering your cookie choice) and analytics (anonymous statistics via PostHog — only set if you opt in).
Your choice is stored in the cc_cookie cookie. You can withdraw consent at any time, as easily as you gave it, by reopening the cookie settings from the banner.
Third-Party Processors
Cloudflare — hosting and CDN (our app and API run on Cloudflare infrastructure).
Neon — database, hosted in the EU.
Mapbox — geocoding of your city search (the search text is sent to Mapbox servers).
PostHog — anonymous analytics, EU-hosted (eu.i.posthog.com), only after consent.
Google — static map links: if you click a link to Google Maps, Google's own terms apply from that point.
Resend — transactional email provider (used when we send you email, e.g. confirmations).
International Transfers
Some of our providers (Cloudflare, Mapbox, Google) are US companies. Transfers to the US rely on EU-approved transfer mechanisms — the EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework and/or the European Commission's Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) — as part of our data-processing agreements with these providers.
Data Retention
Emails from contact/trial-class forms are retained for 2 years (730 days) from submission, then automatically deleted by our nightly purge job.
Anonymous analytics data is retained for 12 months.
Quiz results are retained so your shareable result link keeps working. You can have your result deleted at any time by writing to kontakt@martialartsmatch.com.
Your Rights
Under GDPR you have the right of access (Art. 15), rectification (Art. 16), erasure (Art. 17), and data portability (Art. 20).
Write to kontakt@martialartsmatch.com to exercise your rights. We respond within 30 days at the latest (GDPR Art. 12).
Complaints to the Supervisory Authority
If you are unhappy with how we process your personal data, you have the right to lodge a complaint with the Danish Data Protection Agency (Datatilsynet) — see www.datatilsynet.dk.
