We may receive personally identifiable information (PII) from third-party partners to facilitate and enhance the services we provide to you. This information is used strictly for the purposes intended and is handled with the same level of care and security as the data we collect directly from you.

VASA Fitness reserves the right to disclose or otherwise utilize this information in aggregate form, for any purpose, in its sole judgment.
Log data collected on web server within VASAFITNESS.COM control and under the confidential control of VASAFITNESS.COM‘s third party ad service provider(s) supplies VASA Fitness with aggregate information about the number of visits to different pages on our Web site. This information is not personally identifiable information and is used by VASA Fitness to improve the content of our Web site.
PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION
VASAFITNESS.COM receives and stores any personally identifiable information you enter on our Web site or provide to us in any other way (such as your name, street address, telephone number, email address, birthdate, form of payment that you provide, and your picture when you become a member). Also, if you contact VASA Fitness online, we may keep a record of that correspondence. Wherever VASAFITNESS.COM collects personally identifiable information, we make an effort to include a link to this Privacy Policy on that page.
Personally identifiable information will be used by VASA Fitness and its authorized agents only: (1) to process your requests (e.g., register you for a contest or sweepstakes or fulfill your merchandise order); (2) to communicate with you or personalize the Web site based on your stated interests and preferences or make related offers to you; (3) to administer the Web site or serve you when you have questions or problems; and/or (4) as may, in VASA Fitness’s sole judgment, be required by any applicable laws, rules or regulations or the Terms and Conditions applicable to this Web site.
Personally identifiable information will only be shared with third parties to further the purpose for which you provide such information (e.g., to process your subscription request, enrollment registration or merchandise order) or when we believe in good faith that the law requires it, or to protect the rights of VASA Fitness or its affiliates or subscribers.
If VASA Fitness intends to disclose personally identifiable information to third parties in circumstances not outlined above, you will be advised at the time that we request that you provide us such information, such as in the rules of a sweepstakes or contest or as part of the terms of a given promotion, and you will be provided with the opportunity to opt out of our online database so that participation in the registration, sweepstakes, contest or other activity is possible without disclosing personally identifiable information to such third parties. VASA Fitness does not currently sell any personally identifiable information to third parties.
SHOPPING SERVICES
VASAFITNESS.COM strives to offer its visitors a secure and safe environment for credit card purchases. Some of the shopping and fulfillment services offered on VASAFITNESS.COM may be operated by third party shopping partners. They collect personally identifiable information necessary to accept, process and ship your ordered merchandise on behalf of VASA Fitness to provide you with information you may request and updates on the status of your order, and to assist your purchasing experience. Our shopping partners collect personally identifiable information from you by “active” means, whereby you actively give our shopping partners, as VASAFITNESS.COM‘s agents, that information when ordering merchandise.
Personally identifiable information entered into any of the VASAFITNESS.COM shopping services is used only to complete your transaction and never revealed to others or used by our shopping partners for any purpose not authorized by VASA Fitness. Our shopping partners do not own the personally identifiable information they collect and provide such information only to VASA Fitness (or its designee) and to the delivery services (e.g., the U.S. Postal Service and UPS) they use to deliver merchandise that you order from the VASAFITNESS.COM shopping services. However, as authorized by VASA Fitness, our shopping partners will provide personally identifiable information in response to legitimate subpoenas or other appropriate law enforcement activities.
Credit card information provided to buy merchandise is used solely to determine that your card is valid, that sufficient credit is available to pay for the purchase and to apply the cost of your purchase to your card when the items are shipped. Credit card information you provide is transmitted across the Internet securely using encryption from your browser to our shopping partners’ secure order processing systems. Some versions of browsers and firewalls do not permit connection to secure servers. In such cases, you will not be able to connect to the server and therefore won’t be able to place an order through a secure connection. While no method is completely impenetrable, our shopping partners utilize state-of-the-art encryption technology used in e-commerce today. Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Consequently, while our shopping partners are committed to protecting your personal information, they cannot entirely ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to them.
Please be aware that VASAFITNESS.COM advertisers or Web sites that have links on our Web site may collect personally identifiable information about you. The information practices of those Web sites linked to VASAFITNESS.COM are not covered by this privacy policy.
External Service Providers. There are a number of separate services offered by third parties that we refer to as external service providers that may be complimentary to your use of the Web site (e.g. merchandise providers, shipping, packaging). If you choose to use these separate services, disclose information to the external service providers, and/or grant them permission to collect information about you, then their use of your information is governed by their privacy policy. We do not disclose your personal information to external service providers unless you provide your explicit consent. With your consent we may provide some of your personal information to the external service provider offering such services, for your convenience. To prevent our disclosure of your personal information to an external service provider, you can decline such consent or simply not use their services. Because we do not control the privacy practices of these third parties, you should evaluate their practices before deciding to use their services. Users who register on a VASA Fitness co-branded Web site grant VASA Fitness permission to pass your email address back to that co-branded Web site. The use of your email address by the co-brand Web sites is limited by their applicable privacy policies.
Internal Service Providers for Our Operations. We may use third parties that we refer to as internal service providers to facilitate or outsource one or more aspects of the business, product and service operations that we provide to you and therefore we may provide some of your personal information directly to these internal service providers. These internal service providers are subject to confidentiality agreements with us and other legal restrictions that prohibit their use of the information we provide them for any other purpose except to facilitate the specific outsourced VASA Fitness related operation, unless you have explicitly agreed or given your prior permission to them for additional uses. In some instances, the internal service provider may collect information directly from you (such as for VASA Fitness surveys or for a co-branded credit card). In these cases, you will be notified of the involvement of the internal service provider, and all additional information you provide them and their additional uses will be strictly up to you. If you provide additional information to an internal service provider directly, then their use of your personal information is governed by their applicable privacy policy. Note that you might be on a mailing list for one or more of our independent franchised gym operators, so please contact them directly to remove your name from local mailing lists.
SECURITY
Unfortunately, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. As a result, while we strive to protect your personal information, VASAFITNESS.COM cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you transmit to us or from our online products or services, and you do so at your own risk. Once we receive your transmission, we use reasonable efforts to ensure that collected personally identifiable information is secure and not readily accessible to unapproved individuals or third parties. VASAFITNESS.COM has limited the number of people who have physical access to our database servers and has implemented electronic security systems and password protections which help further guard against unauthorized access. Due to the existing regulatory environment, we cannot ensure that all of your private communications and other personal information will never be disclosed in ways not otherwise described in this Privacy Policy. By way of example (without limiting the foregoing), we may be forced to disclose personal information to the government or third parties under certain circumstances, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, or users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the Web site. Therefore, although we use industry standard practices to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.
STATE-SPECIFIC PRIVACY RIGHTS
You may have additional privacy rights under the law of the state in which you live. If you reside in Colorado o Utah you have the right to access, delete and correct certain personal information that we collect about you. When you request access to personal information, you have the right to receive that information in a portable and readily usable format. You also have the right to restrict (opt out of) the use of your personal information for targeted advertising or marketing profiles, restrict the sale or sharing of your personal information, and control our use of personal information considered sensitive. You also have a right not to receive discriminatory treatment for the exercise of your privacy rights.
