5. Sharing of Personal Data

Personal Data

We may disclose personal data that we collect or you provide as described below.  We do not share or sell your personal data with any third-parties for direct marketing purposes.

  • We disclose personal data to third-party vendors who help us operate the website and the services, including hosting and cloud computing providers.  These third-parties may be based in locations outside the EU and UK. These third-parties are contractually obligated to maintain the confidentiality of your personal data consistent with the terms of this privacy notice and to comply with the applicable data protection laws.
  • We may disclose your personal data if we believe in good faith that such action is necessary in order to comply with (i) a legal obligation, (ii) protect and defend the rights of Predictive Fitness, (iii) act in urgent circumstances to protect the personal safety of our users or customers, or (iv) protect against legal liability.
  • If you purchase our products or services, your payment information may be provided to a third-party payment processor, and such processor’s use of such payment information would be governed by such processor’s own privacy and other policies.

Aggregated Data

We may share with third-parties “aggregate data,” which is information that has been removed of any personal data and is combined with information of others so that you cannot reasonably be identified as an individual. This information does not identify any particular individual or disclose any particular individual’s data.  We may share aggregate data with our users as well as third-parties as we deem appropriate.

6. Data Security

We take the protection of your data seriously and use reasonable measures to safeguard the collection, transmission and storage of any data we collect. Despite using reasonable protections to protect your data, we cannot guarantee the security of the information you share with us.  We use industry standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to allow for the encryption of personal data and credit card numbers and employ network segmentation strategies to prevent disclosure to bad actors. We also engage providers that are industry leaders in online security to strengthen the security of our products and services.  

To maximize the effectiveness of our security measures, you should use a security-enabled browser to submit your credit card information and other personal data to us. Please note that if you do not use a SSL-capable browser, you are at risk for having data intercepted.  We also recommend using a unique password in connection with your account and updating that password frequently.

While we continue to work hard to protect your personal data, no data transmission over the Internet can be guaranteed to be absolutely secure, and we cannot guarantee the security of any personal data you provide to us.

7. Your California Privacy Rights

If you are a California resident, then you have certain additional rights under the CCPA regarding your personal data.

Right to Know

You have the right to know and see what data we have collected about you over the past twelve months, including:

  • The categories of personal data we have collected about you;
  • The categories of sources from which the personal data is collected;
  • The business or commercial purpose for collecting your personal data;
  • The categories of third parties with whom we have shared your personal data; and
  • The specific pieces of Personal data we have collected about you.

Right to Delete

You have the right to request that we delete the personal data we have collected from you (and direct our service providers to do the same), subject to certain legally permitted exceptions.

Exercising Your Rights

To exercise your right to know or your right to delete, please submit a verifiable consumer request to us as indicated in Section 12 (“Contact Us”) of this privacy notice or, if you are a user of our application, through the application. Only you, or someone legally authorized to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your Personal data. You may only make a verifiable consumer request to exercise your right to know twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

  • Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal data or an authorized representative; and
  • Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal data if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal data relates to you.

8. Your Rights Under GDPR

We strive to provide you with choices regarding the personal data you provide to us, and we understand that you may have the right to access, correct, delete, object to and restrict our use of your personal data.  In particular, if you are a resident of the EU or UK, you have the following rights with respect to your personal data:

  • Access. You can ask us to confirm whether we are processing your personal data, to give you a copy of that data, and to provide you with other information about your personal data (to the extent that such information has not already been provided to you in this privacy notice).
  • Rectification. You can ask us to rectify inaccurate information. We may seek to verify the accuracy of the data before rectifying it.
  • Erasure. You can ask us to erase your personal data, but only (i) when it is no longer needed for the purposes for which it was collected, (ii) when you have withdrawn your consent (where the data processing was based on consent), (iii) following a successful right to object, (iv) when it has been processed unlawfully, or (v) to comply with a legal obligation to which we are subject. We are not required to comply with your request to erase your personal data if the processing of your personal data is necessary for compliance with a legal obligation or for the establishment, exercise, or defense of legal claims. There are certain other circumstances in which we are not required to comply with your erasure request, although these two are the most likely circumstances in which we would deny that request.
  • Restriction. In certain contexts, you can ask us to restrict (i.e., keep but not use) your personal data.  We can continue to use your personal data following a request for restriction (i) where we have your consent; (ii) to establish, exercise, and defend legal claims; or (iii) to protect the rights of another natural or legal person.
  • Objection. You can object to any processing of your personal data which has our ‘legitimate interests’ as its legal basis if you believe your fundamental rights and freedoms outweigh our legitimate interests. Once you have objected, we have an opportunity to demonstrate that we have compelling legitimate interests which override your rights and freedoms. In addition, you can object to the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes, which includes profiling to the extent that it is related to such direct marketing without providing any reason. We will then cease the processing of your personal data for direct marketing purposes.
  • Portability. You can ask us to provide your personal data to you in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format, or you can ask to have it ‘ported’ directly to another data controller, but only where our processing is based on your consent and the processing is carried out by automated means.
  • Withdrawal of Consent. You can withdraw your consent in respect of any processing of personal data which is based upon a consent which you have previously provided.

Requests for any of the foregoing should be submitted via email to: privacy@predictive.fit.  Please allow a reasonable time to process any such request.

9. International Transfers

If we transfer any personal data from the UK, Switzerland or the European Economic Area (“EEA”) to a third country or territory outside the UK, Switzerland or the EEA that has not received a binding adequacy decision by the European Commission or a competent national data protection authority, such transfer will occur only with your explicit consent and in accordance with applicable data protection laws. In particular, where data is collected from an individual in the UK, Switzerland or the EEA, explicit consent will be obtained for the data to be transferred to the United States. You should know that the United States’ laws may not provide the same level of protection as the laws of the EEA.

We provide an individual opt-out choice, or opt-in for sensitive data, before we use personal data for a purpose other than which it was originally collected (including the uses set forth in Section 4 of this privacy notice) or subsequently authorized. To request to limit the use of your personal data, please submit a written request to privacy@predictive.fit.

In certain situations, we may be required to disclose personal data in response to lawful requests by public authorities, including to meet national security or law enforcement requirements.

Predictive Fitness is committed to resolving complaints about your privacy and our collection or use of your personal data transferred to the United States. Individuals in the EU, UK or Switzerland with international transfer inquiries or complaints should first contact Predictive Fitness by email at privacy@predictive.fit.
