PRIVACY POLICY

Effective Date: December 13, 2008

Your privacy is important to us.

This policy is designed to inform you as to how we collect and use personal information (as defined below) so that you can make an informed decision about our site and our services. Please read this policy before providing any personal information to us.

At FORM & Fitness we operate based on the following principles:

• We don’t ask you for personal information unless we truly need it.
• We don’t share your personal information with anyone except to comply with the law, develop our products and services, or protect our rights.

Below is our privacy policy which incorporates these goals:

Website Visitors

Like most website operators, FORM & Fitness collects non-personally-identifying information of the sort that web browsers and servers typically make available, such as the browser type, language preference, referring site, and the date and time of each visitor request. FORM & Fitness’s purpose in collecting non-personally identifying information is to better understand how FORM & Fitness’s visitors use its website. From time to time, FORM & Fitness may release non-personally-identifying information in the aggregate, e.g., by publishing a report on trends in the usage of its website.

FORM & Fitness also collects potentially personally-identifying information like Internet Protocol (IP) addresses. FORM & Fitness does not use such information to identify its visitors, however, and does not disclose such information, other than under the same circumstances that it uses and discloses personally-identifying information, as described below.

Gathering of Personally-Identifying Information

Certain visitors to FORM & Fitness’s websites choose to interact with FORM & Fitness in ways that require FORM & Fitness to gather personally-identifying information. The amount and type of information that FORM & Fitness gathers depends on the nature of the interaction. For example, we ask visitors who sign up as a user to provide a username and email address. FORM & Fitness collects such information only insofar as is necessary or appropriate to fulfill the purpose of the visitor’s interaction with FORM & Fitness. FORM & Fitness does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below. And visitors can always refuse to supply personally-identifying information, with the caveat that it may prevent them from engaging in certain website-related activities.

Aggregated Statistics

FORM & Fitness may collect statistics about the behavior of visitors to its websites. FORM & Fitness may display this information publicly or provide it to others. However, FORM & Fitness does not disclose personally-identifying information other than as described below.

Protection of Certain Personally-Identifying Information

FORM & Fitness discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only to those of its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations that (i) need to know that information in order to process it on FORM & Fitness’s behalf or to provide services available at FORM & Fitness’s websites, and (ii) that have agreed not to disclose it to others. Some of those employees, contractors and affiliated organizations may be located outside of your home country; by using FORM & Fitness’s websites, you consent to the transfer of such information to them. FORM & Fitness will not rent or sell potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information to anyone. Other than to its employees, contractors and affiliated organizations, as described above, FORM & Fitness discloses potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information only when required to do so by law, or when FORM & Fitness believes in good faith that disclosure is reasonably necessary to protect the property or rights of FORM & Fitness, third parties or the public at large.

If you are a registered user of a FORM & Fitness website and have supplied your email address, FORM & Fitness may occasionally send you an email to tell you about new features, solicit your feedback, or just keep you up to date with what’s going on with FORM & Fitness and our products. We primarily use our various product blogs to communicate this type of information, so we expect to keep this type of email to a minimum. If you send us a request (for example via a support email or via one of our feedback mechanisms), we reserve the right to publish it in order to help us clarify or respond to your request or to help us support other users.

FORM & Fitness takes appropriate security measures to protect against the unauthorized access, use, alteration or destruction of potentially personally-identifying and personally-identifying information.

Cookies

A cookie is a string of information that a website stores on a visitor’s computer, and that the visitor’s browser provides to the website each time the visitor returns. FORM & Fitness uses cookies to help FORM & Fitness identify and track visitors, their usage of FORM & Fitness website, and their website access preferences. FORM & Fitness visitors who do not wish to have cookies placed on their computers should set their browsers to refuse cookies before using FORM & Fitness’s websites, with the drawback that certain features of FORM & Fitness’s websites may not function properly without the aid of cookies.

Accessing and Updating Personal Information

We make good faith efforts to provide you with access to your personal information and either to correct this data if it is inaccurate or to delete such data at your request if it is not otherwise required to be retained by law or for legitimate business purposes. We ask individual users to identify themselves and the information requested to be accessed, corrected or removed before processing these requests, and we may decline to process requests that are unreasonably repetitive, require disproportionate effort, jeopardize the privacy of others, or would be impractical (for instance, requests concerning information residing on backup tapes). In any case where we provide information access and correction, we perform this service free of charge, except if doing so would require a disproportionate effort.

Privacy Policy Changes

Although most changes are likely to be minor, FORM & Fitness may change its Privacy Policy from time to time, and in FORM & Fitness’s sole discretion. FORM & Fitness encourages visitors to frequently check this page for any changes to its Privacy Policy. Each version of the Privacy Policy will be identified by its effective date at the top of the page. Your continued use of this site after any change in this Privacy Policy will constitute your acceptance of such change.
