Privacy Statement Overview

When we use the term “personal information” in this Privacy Statement, we mean information that identifies, relates to, describes, is reasonably capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular individual or household. For example, this includes information such as your name, address, and device information that can reasonably be linked to you or your household, such as your IP address. Personal information does not include information that is deidentified or aggregated.

By accessing or using our Services, you are agreeing to the terms of this Notice. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO OUR PROCESSING OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION AS CONTEMPLATED IN THIS PRIVACY STATEMENT, PLEASE DO NOT USE OUR SERVICES.

We collect personal information from you when you visit our website or use our services, including identifiers, IP address, activity information, and information about your workouts, classes taken, and similar information. We compile this information into a profile about you, which is sometimes used to draw inferences about you. Our Services also use cookies, and we collect information from and about you using cookies and similar technologies. We collect and process your information in order to provide you with services, to market our services, and to fulfill our contractual obligations to our customers. We primarily process personal data pursuant to our contractual obligations, or where we have your consent to process. We disclose personal data to service providers (sometimes called “processors” or “subprocessors”) who help us offer our Services. We retain personal information we collect about you in line with our data retention policies and procedures, which are designed to retain information for only as long as necessary to fulfill the processing purpose.

You have rights and choices in the personal information we collect from you, including rights to access and know, delete and erase, update and correct, and to object to certain processing activities. You can exercise these rights by contacting us directly, or by contacting us through our EU and UK representative, if you are located in the EU or UK. You also have the right to complain to a supervisory authority about our data processing practices. We are located in the United States and your information will be transferred to and processed in the United States when you use our Services.

When you access or use our Services, you acknowledge that you have read this Notice and understand its contents. Your use of our Services and any dispute over privacy is subject to this Privacy Statement and our Terms of Use (including any applicable disclaimers of warranties, limitations on damages, and the resolution of disputes).

If you have questions about our privacy practices, including if you do not understand them, please contact us using the information in the Contact Us section, below.

Changes to this Privacy Statement

We may update this Privacy Statement at any time as we deem appropriate. Where the changes are material, we will post them here in advance and, if the changes are likely to affect you personally, we will also attempt to contact you directly (such as via email, if we have your email address). It is important that you check back from time to time and make sure that you have reviewed the most current version of this Privacy Statement. We will update the “last updated” date at the top of this Statement so that you are aware of when the last changes were made.

What Kinds of Personal Information Do We Collect?

TeamBuildr collects a variety of personal information and in a variety of ways, depending on how you interact with our Services. For example, when you request information from TeamBuildr, you may be asked to provide personal information so that we can respond to your request, such as basic contact information (e.g., name, e-mail address, phone number). If you become a registered user of the Services, we collect additional information. If you visit our website, we may automatically collect information from or about you.

In particular, we have collected the following categories of personal information in the last 12 months:

We may not collect each of the above categories of personal information from every individual who accesses or uses our Services.

We may also collect non-personal information from you when you use our Services. Non-personal information is information that does not identify or relate to a particular consumer or household, and includes information that is de-identified or aggregated so that it is no longer identifiable. An example of non-personal information we collect includes the number of users who visit a given webpage on our website, when not tied to your IP address or other identifier.

How Do We Collect Personal Information?

We collect personal information directly from you, automatically through your use of our Services, and from third parties and publicly available sources.

Personal Information We Collect Directly From You: We may ask you for personal information for certain purposes when we interact with you, such as to assist in setting up an account. We also directly collect personal information from you when you contact us or otherwise provide us with personal information, such as when you fill in your profile on your account. You decide how much information to share with us in most cases, but not sharing required information may limit your ability to take full advantage of certain Services.

Personal Information We Collect Automatically: Subject to the exercise of your privacy choices, when you use or interact with our Services, we receive and store information generated by your activity, such as usage data and other information automatically collected from your browser or mobile device.

We also may log the length of time of your visit and the number of times you visit. We may assign you one or more unique identifiers to help keep track of your future visits. 

In most cases, this information is automatically obtained by various tracking technologies. Tracking technologies we use include “cookies” “clear GIFs,” and pixel tags. When we refer to “cookies” or “tracking technologies” in this Statement, we intend for it to encompass these and similar technologies. You can read about how we may use tracking technologies here. Please see our Cookie Notice for more information about the cookies that we use.

Information We Collect From Third Parties: We may obtain personal information about you from third parties and publicly available sources. This includes information from or via social networks, referrals, and leads, and information from our clients and customers that you interact with, such as the team or organization your account is associated with, or from a studio you attend a class at or purchase a product from by using our Services. The information we collect from these sources often includes information such as additional contact information, group affiliations, occupational or training information and other information.

Subject to the other provisions of this Privacy Statement and your privacy choices, we may use analytics providers to analyze your information so that we can better understand our website visitors and their use of our Services.

Tracking Technologies

Subject to the other provisions of this Privacy Statement, our Services use cookies, clear GIFs, pixel tags, and similar tracking technologies, which we refer to collectively in this Statement as “cookies.”

Cookies are stored on your device or in "local storage." The HTML cookies that TeamBuildr uses or has used, and some of the information that the cookies provide, are listed here.

When and What Personal Information Do We Disclose, “Sell” or “Share”?

TeamBuildr discloses information to third parties in a variety of circumstances, and for a variety of purposes. Most notably, the TeamBuildr platforms are designed to connect users with the studio they attend classes at or purchase products from, or the team or organization they affiliate with. Accordingly, if you are a GymStudio user, we disclose personal information to the studio(s) you sign up for classes with, purchase products from, or otherwise indicate your interaction with through our Services, and if you are a TeamBuildr user, we share information with the team or organization that your TeamBuildr account is affiliated with, or that you direct us to.

In addition to these disclosures which are at the core of our business, TeamBuildr relies on service providers to offer our Services. The following third parties act as service providers (also called “processors” or “subprocessors” in some jurisdictions) to TeamBuildr. These service providers process personal information for the reasons set forth in this Statement. TeamBuildr discloses personal information to the following service providers for a business purpose:

In addition to the above service providers, we also disclose, or may disclose, your personal information in the following circumstances:

• If you consent by opting in through the tool on our website, we allow third parties to place targeting cookies on your computer or device so that they can understand your online behavior in order to make you aware of goods or services that may be of particular interest to you.
• Among our brands, affiliates, and within the TeamBuildr network of companies and brands.
• In the event of a sale of our company, we may transfer your personal information or our rights in your personal information to an acquirer or other successor in interest.

These disclosures may be to law enforcement or other enforcement bodies, or via valid judicial process (such as a third party subpoena)
• If you otherwise direct us to disclose your information in a certain way, we will endeavor to fulfill your direction, unless it violates any of our policies, the rights of others, or the law.
• We may also disclose your personal information for other specific or discrete purposes presented to you at the time of collection, or that you otherwise consent to.

Please note that in some instances, the use of your personal information by third parties may be also governed by that entity’s Privacy Statement, in addition to or instead of this Statement. For more information, please see the “Information About Studios and Teams,” and the “Links to Other Websites” sections below.

Information About Studios and Teams

As described in the above section “When and What Personal Information Do We Disclose?” TeamBuildr’s Services work by connecting users to studios and/or teams, and in order to offer the Services, TeamBuildr discloses personal information to the studios and/or teams that your account is associated with or that you interact with through our Services (which includes booking a class at that studio). These studios and teams are not part of TeamBuildr, so this Privacy Statement does not necessarily describe their privacy practices, and is not directly applicable to them. These studios and teams may have their own Privacy Statements and practices, which may differ from TeamBuildr’s. We encourage you to ask any studios and/or teams your account is linked to or that you interact with through our Services about their privacy practices, and to review their applicable Privacy Statement(s).
