Privacy Policy

We take your privacy seriously - here's how we handle your info

Last updated: October 28, 2025

Your data is protected under Canadian privacy laws including PIPEDA

Introduction

Look, we get it - nobody actually enjoys reading privacy policies. But here's the thing: at Cindervale Chronos Fitness, we're not about hiding stuff in legal jargon. This document explains straight-up how we collect, use, and protect your personal information when you train with us.

Key Point: We only collect what we need to give you the best training experience possible. No sneaky stuff, no selling your data to random companies.

By using our services, website, or stepping into our facility at 1425 Marine Drive, you're agreeing to this policy. If something doesn't sit right with you, let's talk about it.

Information We Collect

When you sign up or book sessions, we'll ask for:

  • Name and contact details (email, phone number)
  • Mailing address
  • Date of birth (gotta make sure you're old enough to handle our intensity!)
  • Emergency contact information
  • Payment and billing details

Sensitive Information: This stuff is handled with extra care.
  • Medical history and physical limitations
  • Current fitness level and goals
  • Body composition analysis results
  • Workout performance and progress tracking
  • Dietary preferences and restrictions
  • Injury history or current conditions

We need this to keep you safe and design programs that actually work for YOUR body.

When you visit our website or use our app:

  • IP address and browser type
  • Device information
  • Pages visited and time spent
  • Class bookings and attendance records
  • Facility access logs (for security purposes)

How We Use Your Information

We're not collecting this stuff just to have it sit in a database. Here's what we actually do with it:

Service Delivery
  • Setting up and managing your membership
  • Scheduling personal training sessions
  • Creating customized workout programs
  • Tracking your progress over time
  • Providing nutritional guidance
Communication
  • Sending class reminders and updates
  • Responding to your questions
  • Notifying you about schedule changes
  • Sharing fitness tips and content
  • Promotional offers (you can opt out anytime)
Safety & Security
  • Ensuring facility security
  • Managing liability and waivers
  • Responding to emergencies
  • Preventing fraud and unauthorized access
Improvement
  • Understanding what programs work best
  • Improving our services and facilities

  • Developing new class offerings

Bottom line: Everything we collect helps us make your training experience better, safer, and more effective. That's it.

Sharing & Disclosure

We're pretty protective of your info. Here's who might see it and why:

Who What They See Why
Our Trainers & Staff Your fitness data, goals, health info To design programs and keep you safe during workouts
Payment Processors Billing information To process your membership and session payments
Service Providers Contact info, usage data Email services, booking systems, website hosting
Legal Authorities Whatever's legally required If we're legally obligated to (court orders, etc.)
Emergency Contacts Your health status Only in actual emergencies
What we DON'T do: Sell your data to third parties, share it with advertisers, or use it for anything sketchy. Period.

Data Security

We take security seriously - probably more than we take leg day (and that's saying something).

Encryption

Your data is encrypted both in transit and at rest

Access Control

Only authorized staff can access your information

Regular Audits

We regularly review and update our security measures

Real talk though: No system is 100% secure. We do our absolute best to protect your info, but if something does happen, we'll let you know ASAP and tell you what we're doing about it.

Your Rights

Under Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA), you've got some solid rights when it comes to your personal data:

Access

You can request to see what personal information we have about you. Just ask - we'll show you.

Correction

If something's wrong or outdated, tell us and we'll fix it. Especially important for health info!

Deletion

Want us to delete your data? We can do that (within reason - we need to keep some stuff for legal/financial purposes).

Opt-Out

Don't want marketing emails? Cool, just click unsubscribe or let us know. No hard feelings.

Portability

Moving to another gym? You can get your data in a portable format to take with you.

To exercise these rights: Just email us at info@cindervalechronos.info or stop by the front desk. We'll handle it within 30 days.

Cookies & Tracking Technologies

Yeah, we use cookies - but not the delicious kind (though our nutrition plans can include those if they fit your macros!).

Essential Cookies

These keep the website working - login sessions, booking system, that kind of stuff.

Required
Analytics Cookies

Help us understand how people use our site so we can make it better.

Optional
Preference Cookies

Remember your settings and preferences for next time.

Optional
Marketing Cookies

Track effectiveness of our ads and content (if you're cool with that).

You can manage cookie preferences in your browser settings. Just know that blocking some cookies might make certain features not work as smoothly.

Children's Privacy

Our programs are designed for adults 18 and over. If you're under 18, we'll need a parent or guardian to:

  • Complete registration on your behalf
  • Sign consent and waiver forms
  • Provide emergency contact information
  • Approve collection of health and fitness data

We don't knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. If we find out we accidentally did, we'll delete it immediately.

Changes to This Policy

Sometimes we need to update this policy - maybe we add new services, change how we operate, or laws change. When that happens:

  • We'll update the "Last Updated" date at the top
  • For major changes, we'll send you an email or post a notice at the gym
  • You'll have time to review before the changes take effect
  • Continued use of our services means you accept the updates

Pro tip: Check back here once in a while, especially if you care about this stuff. We promise to keep it readable.
