European Data Protection Day: OuiLive, an application that protects its users

January 28 is European Data Protection Day. Its aim is to make European citizens aware of the importance of protecting their personal data and respecting their fundamental rights and freedoms, in particular their privacy. OuiLive, a French startup specializing in Corporate Challenges with a positive impact, is part of this framework by unveiling its new privacy policy, the objective of which is to ensure total protection of users of the mobile application. In 2022, OuiLive is continuing its rapid growth in France and internationally to offer a fun and interactive experience through its connected Challenges with a positive impact. Users of the application are required to provide personal information, photos and videos or even data related to their physical activity (number of steps and kilometers traveled). From its conception, OuiLive was designed in order to limit as much as possible the data collected and their processing. Unlike other players, the company does not market reports based on its users' data. OuiLive's event format also makes it possible to delete all participants' personal data within 30 days from the end of the Challenge: an excellent way to reassure its users while reducing the ecological and energy impact of data storage! This desire to minimize the data necessary for the operation of the application has even guided some technical choices, such as the refusal to use geolocation to measure participants' physical activity.Antoine Delport, Technical Director of OuiLive: “Respecting our users' data is a crucial subject for our company. We aim to be as transparent and economical as possible! For example, we recently removed the gender of participants from profile information because we did not process this information systematically. In order to earn the trust of our users and partners, we aim for excellence and are continuously improving our data policy.”
