6. We Do Not Sell Personal Information for Money

​

Danny Gustin Fitness does not sell personal information in exchange for money.

 

If our practices change in a way that is treated as a “sale,” “sharing,” or targeted advertising under an applicable privacy law, we will update this policy and provide any legally required choices.

 

7. Health Information and HIPAA

 

Danny Gustin Fitness is a fitness and coaching business. It is not a healthcare provider, health plan, or healthcare clearinghouse covered by the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, commonly called HIPAA.

 

The fact that you give us information about an injury, medical condition, medication, or physical limitation does not necessarily make that information subject to HIPAA.

 

We nevertheless seek to protect health-related information and use it only for legitimate fitness, safety, administrative, and legal purposes.

 

Information sent through ordinary email, standard text messaging, social media, or any website forms – including any intake forms - may not be encrypted. Do not use those methods to send information that is more sensitive than necessary.

 

8. Cookies and Similar Technologies

​

Our website and technology providers may use cookies, pixels, local storage, and similar technologies.

​

  • Operate the website;

  • Remember preferences;

  • Understand website traffic;

  • Measure marketing effectiveness;

  • Identify and correct errors;

  • Improve performance; and

  • Protect website security.

 

You can usually block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Some website features may not work properly when cookies are disabled.

 

Where legally required, we will request consent before using nonessential cookies or provide a cookie-preference tool.

 

Because there is no consistent industry standard for browser “Do Not Track” signals, our website may not respond to all such signals. We will recognize legally required opt-out preference signals when applicable and technically supported.

 

9. Email and Text Preferences

​

We may use the contact information you provide to respond to your inquiry or communicate about services you requested or to send you any promotional messages.

 

Please note that for such SMS messages you receive Message and data rates may apply, and the number of messages may vary.

SMS or text messages are not secure forms of communication, so we advise you not to share sensitive information through these channels.

 

You may opt-out of receiving any, or all, of these communications from us by:

​

  • following the unsubscribe link or instructions provided in any email we send; or

  • following instructions to STOP sending such SMS messages we send; or

  • by contacting us directly as outlined in this policy.

 

After you opt out of promotional communications, we may still send necessary messages about:

​

  • Appointments;

  • Payments;

  • Your account;

  • Safety concerns;

  • Program changes; or

  • Services you are receiving.

 

Any promotional offer or credit extended for a limited time is subject to expiration and may be withdrawn at our sole discretion, without prior notice.

 

We may use Email Marketing Service Providers, in accordance with this policy, to manage and send emails to You.

 

10. How We Protect Information

​

We use administrative, physical, and technical safeguards designed to protect information from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

 

Depending on the information and systems involved, these safeguards may include:

​

  • Limiting access to people who need the information;

  • Password and authentication controls;

  • Use of established service providers;

  • Confidentiality obligations;

  • Software updates;

  • Data backups;

  • Security monitoring; and

  • Secure destruction or disposal.

 

No website, internet transmission, email system, or electronic storage method is completely secure. We cannot promise absolute security.

 

11. How Long We Keep Information

​

We keep information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected and for legitimate business or legal needs.

 

For example, we may keep information to:

​

  • Provide services;

  • Maintain fitness and safety records;

  • Process transactions;

  • Resolve disputes;

  • Respond to insurance matters;

  • Enforce agreements;

  • Meet tax and accounting obligations;

  • Prevent fraud; or

  • Respond to legal claims.

 

Retention periods will vary based on the type of information and applicable requirements.

 

When information is no longer reasonably needed, we may delete it, anonymize it, or securely destroy it.

Depending on applicable law, you may ask us to:

​

  • Confirm whether we have personal information about you;

  • Provide access to certain information;

  • Correct inaccurate information;

  • Delete certain information;

Our website is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information online directly from children under 13 without legally sufficient parental consent.

A participant under 18 must involve a parent or legal guardian in the enrollment process.

 

A parent or guardian who believes a child submitted information without appropriate permission should contact us.

 

14. Third-Party Websites and Platforms

Those businesses have their own privacy practices. We are not responsible for how an independent third party collects, protects, or uses information.

 

15. Visitors Outside the United States

​

Danny Gustin Fitness is operated from Illinois in the United States.

​

If you access the website from another country, information may be transferred to and processed in the United States, where privacy laws may differ from the laws in your location.

 

Our services are not offered in a location where doing so would subject us to legal or registration requirements we have not accepted.
