Our privacy notice governs the privacy practices of our website www.pilatesphere.com. Our privacy notice tells you what personal data and nonpersonal data we collect from you, how we collect them, how we protect them, how we share them, how you can access and change them, and how you can limit our sharing of them. Our privacy notice also explains certain legal rights that you have concerning your personal data. Any capitalized terms not defined herein will have the same meaning as where they are defined elsewhere on our website.


Definitions

‘NONPERSONAL DATA’ (NPD) is information that is in no way personally identifiable.


‘PERSONAL DATA’ (PD) means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person (‘data subject’); an identifiable natural person is one who can be identified directly or indirectly by reference to an identifier such as a name, an identification number, location data, an online identifier, or to one or more factors specific to the physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity of that natural person. PD is in many ways the same as Personally Identifiable Information (PII). However, PD is broader in scope and covers more data. (GDPR) means General Data Protection Regulation. (CCPA) means California Consumer Privacy Act. (LGPD) means Brazilian General Data Protection Law.

YOUR RIGHTS

Contact us using the information at the top of this privacy notice to exercise any of your legal rights contained within this privacy notice.
 

Our policy is that we do not sell our users and customers PD except in the sale or merger of our business. See the section about “Disclosures to Successors” in this privacy notice. The provision below is only here because it is required by law that we include it.

You have the right to request that we do not sell any of your personal information. 

Personal information for this section means but is not limited to a natural person’s first name or first initial and last name in combination with any one or more of the following data elements when they are not encrypted: social security number, driver’s license number, driver authorization card number, or identification card number. Account number, credit card, or debit card number, in combination with any required security code, access code, or password that would permit access to the person’s financial account. If you wish to make this request, you can email us at [enter email address] telling us that you do not want to have any of your personal information sold. Include enough personal information so that we can reasonably verify your identity. We will respond to your request within 30 days after receiving it.


California Privacy Rights. The CCPA applies to you only if your company does business in the State of California (even if it is located in another state or country) and satisfies one or more of the following thresholds:
 

(a) has annual gross revenues above twenty-five million dollars ($25,000,000).

(b) alone or in combination annually buys, receives for its commercial purposes, sells, or shares for commercial purposes alone or in combination personal information of 50,000 or more consumers, households, or devices. This threshold can be reached more easily than you think because of the broad definition of personal information by the law including visits to your website. As an example, if your website gets 137 or more visitors a day from Californian consumers, you would meet the threshold (b).


However, it is more complicated than the simple 137 visitor example.


Since “device” means any physical object that is capable of connecting to the Internet, directly or indirectly, or to another device, this may include a large variety of devices that collect and store information whether connected to the Internet or not.

The term “alone or in combination” significantly changes the 50,000 number threshold (b) because you have to consider combinations like adding the number of consumers, devices, and households together.

If only one consumer uses various devices like a cell phone, laptop, tablet, desktop computer, Wi-Fi, social media websites, and other devices, and combines them with the definition of a “household” meaning a person or group of people occupying a single home, could significantly lessen the threshold number of 50,000 consumers to far less, maybe as low as 5,10, or 15 thousand.


(c) derives fifty or more percent of its annual revenue from selling, renting, releasing, disclosing, disseminating, making available, transferring, or otherwise communicating orally, in writing, or by electronic or other means Californian consumers’ personal information by the business to another business or a third-party for monetary or other valuable consideration.
 

Optional:

Your Privacy Rights Under the CCPA

Californian consumers have certain rights under the CCPA. For us to comply with some of these rights, we must be able to reasonably verify a consumer’s identity. These rights include:
 

The right of Californians to know what personal information is being collected about them.

The right of Californians to know whether their personal information is sold or disclosed and to whom.

The right of Californians to say no to the sale of their personal information.

The right of Californians to access their personal information.

The right to data portability. Californians have the right to request their personal information that they provided to us and use them for their own purposes. We will provide Californians their personal information within 30 days of their request.

The right of Californians to the deletion of their personal information.

The right of Californians to equal service, price, and not being discriminated against even if they exercise their privacy rights.

One or more designated means for Californian consumers to submit requests under the CACPA including (at minimum) a toll-free telephone number, and if the business maintains an Internet website, a website address.

The right of Californians to designate an authorized agent to request on their behalf. When designating an authorized agent, you must provide a valid power of attorney, the requester’s valid government-issued identification, and the authorized agent’s valid government-issued identification.

Provisions with an asterisk (*) only apply to consumers if the business sells PD about Californian consumers or discloses their personal information for business purposes. If this does not apply to your business, the provisions with an (*) can be deleted.


Personal information includes:

categories of personal information that a business collected about the consumer;

categories of sources from which the personal information was collected;

specific pieces of personal information that the business has collected about consumers;

categories of third parties with whom the business shares personal information;

the business or commercial purpose of collecting or selling personal information

*categories of personal information about the consumer that the business disclosed for a business purpose in the preceding 12 months, or a statement that it has not disclosed any personal information for business purposes.


Additional Requirements for Companies Who Sell Personal Information:

A business that sells personal information about a California consumer and that is required to comply with Section 1798.120 of AB No. 375 shall, in a form that is reasonably accessible to consumers:


(1) Provide a clear and conspicuous link on the business’ Internet homepage, titled “Do Not Sell My Personal Information,” to an Internet webpage that enables a consumer, or a person authorized by the consumer, to opt-out of the sale of the consumer’s personal information. A business shall not require a consumer to create an account to direct the business not to sell the consumer’s personal information.
 

(2) Include a description of a consumer’s rights under Section 1798.120, along with a separate link to the “Do Not Sell My Personal Information” Internet webpage in:

(A) Its online privacy policy or policies if the business has an online privacy policy or policies.

(B) Any California-specific description of consumers’ privacy rights.


(3) Ensure that all individuals responsible for handling consumer inquiries about the business’s privacy practices or the business’s compliance with this title are informed of all requirements in Section 1798.120 and this section and how to direct consumers to exercise their rights under those sections.
