Art. 20 DSGVO, Leistungsdaten und Profisport

As the commercialization of professional sports progresses, data-driven analyses and forecasts about the performance of individual athletes are playing an increasingly important role. The result is the increasing sporting and commercial value of performance data for the players in the sports industry.
Due to this value, there is an interest in the portability of performance data. Such data portability justifies the right to data portability under Art. 20 GDPR. This legal regulation is the focus of the elaboration and is made valuable in an innovative way for the use of performance data in professional sports, while at the same time gaining practically usable insights for the processing of performance data in professional sports.
