2. Definitions

Throughout this document, we may use certain words or phrases, and it is important that you understand the meaning of them. The following is a non-exhaustive list of definitions of words and phrases found in this document:

3. Information We Collect

“Personal Data” means data that allows someone to identify or contact you, including, for example, your name, address, telephone number, e-mail address, as well as any other non-public information about you that is associated with or linked to any of the foregoing data. “Anonymous Data” means data that is not associated with or linked to your Personal Data; Anonymous Data does not, by itself, permit the identification of individual persons. We collect Personal Data and Anonymous Data, as described below.

Information You Provide to Us

Information You Provide to Facebook and Other Social Networking Sites

The Services allow users to access Facebook to interact with friends and to share on Facebook through Wall and friends’ News Feeds. If you are already logged into the Services and Facebook or another SNS, when you click on “Connect with Facebook,” or a similar connection on another SNS, you will be prompted to merge your profiles. If you are already logged into the Services but not logged into Facebook or another SNS that we support, when you click on “Connect with Facebook,” or a similar connection on another SNS, you will be prompted to enter your SNS credentials or to “Sign Up” for the SNS. By proceeding, you are allowing the Services to access your information and you are agreeing to the Facebook or other SNS’s Terms of Use in your use of the Services. Conversely, if you are not currently registered as a user of the Services, and you click on “Sign in” using Facebook or another SNS that we support, you will first be asked to enter your Facebook or SNS credentials and then be given the option to register for the Services. In this case, we may receive information from Facebook or another SNS to make it easier for you to create an Account on the Site and show our relevant content from your Facebook or SNS friends. Once you register on the Site and connect with Facebook or another SNS, you will be able to automatically post recent activity back to Facebook or the other SNS. Any information that we collect from your Facebook or other SNS account may depend on the privacy settings you have with that SNS, so please consult the SNS’s privacy and data practices. You have the option to disable Facebook Connect at any time by logging into your Account through the Site and going to settings, “About Me,” “Linked Accounts,” and then unselecting “Facebook.” Further, you can edit privacy settings for the reviews that appear on Facebook or disconnect your Services activity stream by visiting the Facebook Applications Settings page. Please note that any personal information you share on a SNS may become public; therefore, you should be cautious before posting any content on a SNS.

Information Collected via Technology

Cookies

Like many online services, we use cookies to collect information. “Cookies” are small pieces of information that a website sends to your computer’s hard drive while you are viewing the website. We may use both session Cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent Cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on our Site. This type of information is collected to make the Site more useful to you and to tailor the experience with us to meet your special interests and needs. See our Cookie Policy for further details.

Apple's Health App and the Apple HealthKit API

In addition, you may authorize us to sync your Sworkit workout information and collect information from your Apple iOS Health App Data. You decide what information is placed into the Health App and you can modify which specific data we can collect and access through your Health App settings. We request access to your weight, heart rate, and active energy burned. Additionally, we request permission to write info to active energy burned and workout type. Your Health App Data is a part of your Personal Data. The information you provide directly in the Health App (i.e., not through Nexercise) is governed by the Apple Terms and Conditions and Privacy Policy.

If you have enabled location services on your phone, we collect your location information to make a map available to the recipients of your messages showing your location. If you do not want this information collected by us, you can disable location services on your phone.

4. Use and Retention of Your Information

Why do we need your Personal Data?

We will only process your Personal Data in accordance with applicable data protection and privacy laws. We need certain Personal Data in order to provide you with access to the Nexercise Properties. If you created a profile or otherwise registered with us, you will have been asked to check a tick box indicating your agreement to provide this data in order to access our services, purchase our products, or view our content. This consent provides us with the legal basis we require under applicable law to process your data. You maintain the right to withdraw such consent at any time. If you do not agree to our use of your Personal Data in line with this policy, please do not use our the Nexercise Properties.

We do not use your Personal Data for the purposes of automated decision-making. However, we may do so in order to fulfil obligations imposed by law, in which case we will inform you of any such processing and provide you with an opportunity to object.

User Testimonials and Feedback.

We often receive testimonials and comments from users who have had positive experiences with our Services. We occasionally publish such content. When we publish this content, we may identify our users by their first and last name and may also indicate their home city. We obtain the user’s consent prior to posting his or her name along with the testimonial. We may post user feedback on the Site from time to time. We will share your feedback with your first name and last initial only. If we choose to post your first and last name along with your feedback, we will obtain your consent prior to posting you name with your feedback. If you make any comments on a blog or forum associated with our Site, you should be aware that any Personal Data you submit there can be read, collected, or used by other users of these forums, and could be used to send you unsolicited messages. We are not responsible for the personally identifiable information you choose to submit in these blogs and forums.

Creation of Anonymous Data.

We may create De-Identified Data records from Personal Data collected (excluding HealthKit Data) by the Sworkit Apps. We use this De-Identified Data to analyze request and usage patterns so that we may enhance the content of our Services and improve Site navigation. We reserve the right to use De-Identified Data for any lawful purpose and disclose De-Identified Data to third parties in our discretion. We will not use or disclose to third parties user data gathered from the HealthKit API or from health-related human subject research for advertising or other use-based data mining purposes other than improving health, or for the purpose of health research. We will not use the HealthKit APIs, or any information obtained through the HealthKit APIs, to disclose or provide an end-user’s health and/or fitness information to a third party without express end user consent, and then only for purposes of enabling the third party to provide health and/or fitness services. For example, we will not share or sell an end-user’s health information collected through the HealthKit APIs to advertising platforms, data brokers or information resellers. With the explicit permission and consent of the end-user, we may share their data with third parties for medical research purposes.

Retention.

We will only retain your Personal Data as long as reasonably required for you to use the Nexercise Properties, or until you close your account (unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law, including, for example, for regulatory purposes).

NOTICE TO CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS – YOUR CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS

IN GENERAL, IF THE BUSINESS HAS MADE SUCH A DISCLOSURE OF PERSONAL DATA, UPON RECEIPT OF A REQUEST BY A CALIFORNIA CUSTOMER, THE BUSINESS IS REQUIRED TO PROVIDE A LIST OF ALL THIRD PARTIES TO WHOM PERSONAL DATA WAS DISCLOSED IN THE PRECEDING CALENDAR YEAR, AS WELL AS A LIST OF THE CATEGORIES OF PERSONAL DATA THAT WERE DISCLOSED.

Profile

Certain portions of the information you provide to us may also be displayed in your Profile. As an essential element of the Services, most of the Personal Data you explicitly provide to us when you register or update your Profile is displayed on your Profile. Once displayed on your Profile, that information can be collected and used by your friends. We cannot control who reads your postings or what other users may do with the information that you voluntarily post, so it is very important that you do not put Personal Data in your posts. Once you have posted information, while you will still be able to edit and delete it on the Site, you will not be able to edit or delete such information cached, collected, and stored elsewhere by others (e.g., search engines).

Legal Purposes

Despite your indicated e-mail preferences, we may send you service related communications, including notices of any updates to our Terms of Use or Privacy Policy.

9. Security Measures; Incident Response

We take the confidentiality and security of the Personal Information we collect very seriously.

We have implemented physical, technical, and administrative measures designed to enhance the security of our Site, our Apps, and Service. Such measures include the use of SSL Certificates. Unfortunately, no system is 100% foolproof or secure; therefore, we recommend that you use anti-virus software, firewalls, and other precautions to protect yourself from security threats.

In the event we become aware of a data breach impacting your Personal Information, we will provide notification in compliance with applicable laws. For example, we may post a notice on the Site and may send you an email to the email address you have provided to us. Depending on where you live, you may have a legal right to receive notice of a security breach in writing.

We have implemented procedures designed to stop threats that may expose your Personal Information, restore our Site, Apps, and/or Service to full functionality, and document and take proactive steps to minimize the risk that an incident could be repeated. We also have measures in place to preserve relevant evidence for investigation by security professionals and law enforcement as appropriate. In the unlikely event of an unauthorized disclose, we will follow our internal procedures.

If you have any information about the security features of our Services, you can email us at privacy@sworkit.com.

With our Sworkit Student Engagement Portal (SSEP) we’ve created a tool that school personnel (for example, teachers and athletic staff) can use to monitor the use of Sworkit by their students. This allows school personnel engagement with the Services so that they can monitor student participation and award credit. The parameters for monitoring using the SSEP is determined in the discretion of the school and is solely under the control of the school. If you are a parent or student and have questions about how your school uses the monitoring features, you should contact your school administration.

We never sell Personal Information of Student Users or use such information for advertising . We do not serve advertisements to Student Users. We only use Personal Information from Student Users for purposes related providing and/or improving our services. Please note that we may use aggregated and de-identified data derived from Student Users (such as school-level usage data) to provide information to our K12 Users that may help them to better utilize our services for their educational purposes.

Personal Information we collect from Student Users may be subject to additional federal and state student privacy laws, including the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (“FERPA”). Under FERPA, the K12 User (as the school or the school’s authorized representative) must control Personal Information of Student Users. If you are a parent or legal guardian of a Student User and want to request access to or deletion of Personal Information regarding your child, you must contact the appropriate personnel at your school. We are unable to respond to such requests directly due to our obligations under FERPA and our contractual arrangements.

If you would like more information on FERPA, please visit the U.S. Department of Education’s FERPA General Guidance for Parents (last accessed October 2020).

Details regarding each processing purpose listed below are provided in the section above titled “Use and Retention of Your Information.”

Legal basis

To operate the Service


Processing is necessary to perform the contract governing our provision of the Services or to take steps that you request prior to signing up for the Services.

  • To send you marketing communications

With your consent

Processing is based on your consent. Where we rely on your consent you have the right to withdraw it any time in the manner indicated when you consent or in the Service.

Use for new purposes.

Retention

To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we consider the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.

When we no longer require the personal information we have collected about you, we will dissociate such information from the information attached to your content.

Please note that the CCPA limits these rights by, for example, prohibiting us from providing certain sensitive information in response to an access request and limiting the circumstances in which we must comply with a deletion request. If we deny your request, we will communicate our decision to you.

You are entitled to exercise the rights described above free from discrimination.

How to Submit a Request . To request access to or deletion of personal information:

Identity verification. The CCPA requires us to verify the identity of the individual submitting a request to access or delete personal information before providing a substantive response to the request. We may attempt to verify your identify by asking you to confirm information that we have on file about you or your interactions with us. Where we ask for additional personal information to verify your identity, we will only use it to verify your identity or your authority to make the request on behalf of another consumer.

Authorized agents. California residents can empower an “authorized agent” to submit requests on their behalf. We will require the authorized agent to have a written authorization confirming that authority.

ONLINE TRACKING OPT-OUT GUIDE

Like many companies online, we use services that use tracking technology. These services rely on tracking technologies – such as cookies and web beacons – to collect directly from your device information about your browsing activities, your interactions with websites, and the device you are using to connect to the Internet.

There are a number of ways to opt out of having your online activity and device data collected through these services, which we have summarized below:

Note that because these opt-out mechanisms are specific to the device or browser on which they are exercised, you will need to opt-out on every browser and device that you use.Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy explains how Nexercise, LLC (“Nexercise ,” “we,” “us” or “our”) uses cookies and similar technologies in connection with the www.Nexerciseventures.com website and any other website that we own or control and which posts or links to this Cookie Policy (collectively, the “ Sites”).

What are cookies?

Cookies are small data files that are placed on your computer or mobile device when you visit a website. Cookies serve different purposes, like helping us understand how a site is being used, letting you navigate between pages efficiently, remembering your preferences and generally improving your browsing experience.

Our Sites may use both session cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent cookies (which stay on your computer or mobile device until you delete them).

We use two broad categories of cookies: (1) first party cookies, served directly by us to your computer or mobile device, which we use to recognize your computer or mobile device when it revisits our Sites; and (2) third party cookies, which are served by service providers or business partners on our Sites, and can be used by these parties to recognize your computer or mobile device when it visits other websites. Third party cookies can be used for a variety of purposes, including site analytics, advertising and social media features.

What types of cookies and similar tracking technologies does Nexercise use on the Sites?

On the Sites, we use cookies and other tracking technologies in the following categories described in the table below.

The Nexercise Properties use the following types of cookies for the purposes set out below:

Type of cookies

Purpose

Essential Cookies

These cookies are essential to provide you with services available through the Nexercise Properties and to enable you to use some of its features. For example, they allow you to log in to secure areas of the Nexercise Properties and help the content of the pages you request load quickly. Without these cookies, the services that you have asked for cannot be provided, and we only use these cookies to provide you with those services.

Functionality Cookies

These cookies allow the Nexercise Properties to remember choices you make when you use the Nexercise Properties, such as remembering your language preferences, remembering your login details and remembering the changes you make to other parts of [our Site/Application(s)/Services] which you can customize. The purpose of these cookies is to provide you with a more personal experience and to avoid you having to re-enter your preferences every time you visit the Nexercise Properties.

Analytics and Performance Cookies

These cookies are used to collect information about traffic to [our Site/Application(s)/Services and how users use the Nexercise Properties. The information gathered does not identify any individual visitor. The information is aggregated and anonymous. It includes the number of visitors to the Nexercise Properties, the websites that referred them to the Nexercise Properties, the pages they visited on the Nexercise Properties, what time of day they visited the Nexercise Properties, whether they have visited the Nexercise Properties before, and other similar information. We use this information to help operate the Nexercise Properties more efficiently, to gather broad demographic information and to monitor the level of activity on the Nexercise Properties.

We use Google Analytics and other third party analytics services for this purpose. Google Analytics uses its own cookies. It is only used to improve how the Nexercise Properties works. You can find out more information about Google Analytics cookies here: https://developers.google.com/analytics/resources/concepts/gaConceptsCookies . You can find out more about how Google protects your data here: www.google.com/analytics/learn/privacy.html .

You can prevent the use of Google Analytics relating to your use of the Nexercise Properties by downloading and installing the browser plugin available via this link: http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en-GB .

Targeted and advertising cookies

These cookies track your browsing habits to enable us to show advertising which is more likely to be of interest to you. These cookies use information about your browsing history to group you with other users who have similar interests. Based on that information, and with our permission, third party advertisers can place cookies to enable them to show advertisements which we think will be relevant to your interests while you are on third party websites.

You can disable cookies which remember your browsing habits and target advertising at you by visiting http://www.youronlinechoices.com/uk/your-ad-choices , http://www.aboutads.info/choices or http://www.networkadvertising.org . If you choose to remove targeted or advertising cookies, you will still see advertisements but they may not be relevant to you. Even if you do choose to remove cookies by the companies listed at the above link, not all companies that serve online behavioral cookies are included in this list, and so you may still receive some cookies and tailored advertisements from companies that are not listed.

Social Media Cookies

These cookies are used when you share information using a social media sharing button or “like” button on the Nexercise Properties or you link your account or engage with our content on or through a social networking website such as Facebook, Twitter, or Google+. The social network will record that you have done this.


Other technologies

In addition to cookies, our Sites may use other technologies, such as Flash technology to pixel tags to collect information automatically.

Browser Web Storage

We may use browser web storage (including via HTML5), also known as locally stored objects (“LSOs”), for similar purposes as cookies. Browser web storage enables the storage of a larger amount of data than cookies. Your web browser may provide functionality to clear your browser web storage.

Web Beacons

We may also use web beacons (which are also known as pixel tags and clear GIFs) on our Sites and in our HTML formatted emails to track the actions of users on our Sites and interactions with our emails. Unlike cookies, which are stored on the hard drive of your computer or mobile device by a website, pixel tags are embedded invisibly on webpages or within HTML formatted emails. Pixel tags are used to demonstrate that a webpage was accessed or that certain content was viewed, typically to measure the success of our marketing campaigns or engagement with our emails and to compile statistics about usage of the Sites, so that we can manage our content more effectively.

Your Choices

Most browsers let you remove or reject cookies. To do this, follow the instructions in your browser settings. Many browsers accept cookies by default until you change your settings. Please note that if you set your browser to disable cookies, the Sites may not work properly.

For more information about cookies, including how to see what cookies have been set on your computer or mobile device and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org. If you do not accept our cookies, you may experience some inconvenience in your use of our Sites. For example, we may not be able to recognize your computer or mobile device and you may need to log in every time you visit our Sites.

Users may opt out of receiving targeted advertising on websites through members of the Network Advertising Initiative by clicking here or the Digital Advertising Alliance by clicking here. European users may opt out of receiving targeted advertising on websites through members of the European Interactive Digital Advertising Alliance by clicking here, selecting the user’s country, and then clicking “Choices” (or similarly-titled link). Please note that we also may work with companies that offer their own opt-out mechanisms and may not participate in the opt-out mechanisms that we linked above.

If you choose to opt-out of targeted advertisements, you will still see advertisements online but they may not be relevant to you. Even if you do choose to opt out, not all companies that serve online behavioral advertising are included in this list, and so you may still receive some cookies and tailored advertisements from companies that are not listed.

Changes

Information about the cookies we use may be updated from time to time, so please check back on a regular basis for any changes.
