1. Personal Information We Collect through the Site and Apps
In general, you can browse the non-password protected portions of our Sites without telling us who you
are or revealing any personal information about yourself, except for our collection of “cookies” as
described in Section 3.
We may collect personal information from you on our Site and Apps or through any other digital or

membership at a Basecamp Fitness studio.
If you are a member or customer, you may choose to integrate information from your membership
account with the Site and our Apps, but you will have the opportunity to opt-in to that integration of
information across different platforms. Our Site and the Apps may also collect general information
about your technology interface or preferences (such as the type of browser used or the files requested).
Some of the information described below is mandatory for the performance of certain services, and if
not entered, you may not be able to utilize or participate in some of our online services or features.

other applications or platforms that are useful to integrate your fitness goals and activity. If you choose

We strive to offer you an integrated, comprehensive way to manage your lifestyle, fitness goals and
activity. In order to operate the Site and Apps as one seamless experience, however, we must share your
personal information with our affiliates to provide you with the integrated services offered through the
Site and Apps. We may also share such information with our franchisees, or other business partners with
whom we collaborate or work with to provide specific services to you or if we think the products or
services they offer would be of interest to you. We may provide user information to third-party service
providers or vendors for purposes of, including without limitation, initiating direct marketing programs
on our behalf, data tracking, maintenance or development of our Site or Apps, development of online
products and services, customer service or new product development, or other contracted promotional
opportunities provided to our users. We, as well as our franchisees, vendors, or other business partners
may use this information for marketing and solicitation purposes.
Your studio visit data, App data, and personal information may be made available to those locations’
franchisees, management and employees, or other contracted service providers whom you have engaged
to provide services to you. Each of those parties is obligated to maintain the confidentiality of your
personal information and is permitted to access and use your personal information solely for the purpose
of providing or enhancing services you use through the Basecamp Fitness system or Apps. Additionally,
you may choose to share personal information from the Site or Apps with Basecamp Fitness studio staff.
While we try to be selective in working with third parties, we are not responsible for their use of your
personal information. Where payments are involved, we must release your credit card information to
credit card authorization service providers and associated banks to process your payment for purchases,
returns or refunds. We may transfer to our online service providers personal information you provide to
us so that these parties may store and process your personal information.
We may share aggregate information with vendors, business partners, or other third parties. Aggregate
information does not include personally identifiable information.
Except as described in this section, we will not give or sell your personal information to any other party
for its use in marketing or solicitation.
Additional Disclosures.
We may also disclose personal information in any of the following circumstances: (1) in response to a
subpoena, search warrant, court order, or other legal process or request, or as may otherwise be required
by applicable law or regulation; (2) to protect and defend our rights or property or those of its
franchisees, suppliers, related entities, affiliates, business partners, or others; or (3) as we, in our sole
discretion, believes is appropriate under exigent circumstances in response to a perceived threat to the
personal safety, property, or rights of any other person or organization.
In addition, since member information on our Site and in our Apps is a business asset, in the event we
are reorganized or sold to or merged with another company, we may sell, assign, or transfer your personal information to a purchaser of all or substantially all of our business assets, or to an affiliate, as
applicable.
3. Our Use of Your “Cookie” Information on the Site and Apps
A “cookie” is a small data file stored on your web browser or on your mobile device that allows us to
recognize your computer or mobile device when you visit the Site or Apps by associating identification
numbers with other user information you have provided us. Some cookies will remain on the hard drive
of your computer or mobile device for the duration of your browser or user session, while others will
remain until deleted by you. You may also be able to configure your computer or mobile device to limit
the collection of these “cookies,” but that limitation may also limit our ability to provide all the services
or functionality of the Site or Apps. Some third-party service providers may use “flash cookies,” which
are saved on your computer, but cannot be rejected, disabled, turned off, opted out of, or deleted in the
same way as regular cookies. To learn how to manage your flash cookie settings, visit the Flash player
settings page on Adobe’s website.
In collecting and maintaining cookie-based information or other information collected directly from

- Help diagnose problems with the Sites or Apps, administer and improve the Sites or Apps, and
measure the use of the Sites or Apps;

Site;
- Gather other web analytics information related to your and other users’ use and navigation of the
Sites and Apps;
- Provide you with relevant content, including advertisements and other offers from third parties;
- Aggregate cookie data across all users to track overall visitor traffic patterns and provide this
aggregated information to vendors, potential advisors, business partners, new agencies, or other
parties to identify interests or plan for technical infrastructure requirements;
- Conduct advertising based on your use of the Site or Apps, as described below; and
- Otherwise provide improvements and enhancements to the Site.
We may also use third-party vendors, such as Google Analytics, to advertise to our users online. These
third-party vendors may display Basecamp Fitness and our affiliate’s advertisements on other websites
based on your internet usage. More specifically, these vendors use first-party cookies (such as the
Google Analytic cookie) and third-party cookies (such as the DoubleClick cookie) together to inform,
optimize, and serve ads based on your past visits to the Site or another site affiliated with Basecamp
Fitness products or services. Any information that these third parties collect via cookies is not linked to
any personally identifiable information (name, address, email address, or phone number) we collect or
you provide on the website. You can opt-out of Google Analytics for Display Advertising by using
Google’s Ads Settings.
4. Our Relationship with the Websites
In addition to the integration with certain mobile applications as described in this Privacy Policy, the

not responsible for the contents or privacy policies related to any other web sites. If you visit one of
these other web sites, you may want to review the privacy policy on that web site. Where the Sites

different and additional terms of service and privacy policy terms and conditions.

reasonable time if no time limit is established by applicable law. For your protection, we may ask you
for additional information to verify your identity. In most cases, we will provide the information you
request and correct or delete any inaccurate personal information you discover. We reserve the right,
however, to limit or deny your request to the extent permitted by applicable law if: (1) the disclosure
may be threat to the personal safety, property, or rights of any other person or organization; (2) the
disclosure may lead to a violation of applicable laws or regulations; or (3) where you have failed to
