Welcome to the www.gymlink.com.au and www.gymlink.co.nz websites! We want www.gymlink.com.au and www.gymlink.co.nz to be your source for health, fitness and wellbeing information, products, services and tools. We know that your privacy is important to you, so your privacy as you use our site is very important to us. This Privacy Policy describes what information we gather from you, how we use that information, and what we do to protect it. We hope that this privacy policy is straightforward and clear; however, if you have any questions about it, please e-mail enquiries@gymlink.com.au
Personally Identifiable Information
To take advantage of any ‘Free Pass’ or ‘Special Offer’
available from www.gymlink.com.au or www.gymlink.co.nz registered businesses,
we ask you to register with our site by way of application, and provide details
including your name and residential and e-mail addresses. This Registration
Information is personally identifiable information because it allows us to contact
you and distinguish you from other users.
You may also buy a range of health and fitness related products on our site. If you make purchases through www.gymlink.com.au or www.gymlink.co.nz, we need to gather information relating to the sale, including what you are buying, how you are paying, and where you would like the products shipped. However, we will use that Transactional Information only to complete the transaction, to provide you with an order history and to facilitate future orders. We may also use information about the transaction for aggregate reporting (where we summarise the data in a report that does not contain your personally identifiable information).
We may receive additional personally identifiable information from you through communications with www.gymlink.com.au or www.gymlink.co.nz. If so, we will use that information to fulfil your request and for aggregate reporting before deleting it from our active system. For example, if you e-mail www.gymlink.com.au to ask about an article or section or service, we will use that information to give you an answer, to make sure that you are satisfied with our answer, to have a history of our service to you and to make our service better by reporting your request, without any personally identifying information, in our customer service totals.
‘Free Pass’ and ‘Special
Offer’ Application Download Process
Upon application for a ‘Free Pass’ or ‘Special Offer’,
all Terms and Conditions applying to an individual registered business, as printed
on the application receipt (the certificate which follows the application process
displayed on screen for you to print as a copy ), must be adhered to. www.gymlink.com.au
and www.gymlink.co.nz also request that you decide to opt-in or opt-out to receiving
the monthly Healthy Lifestyle Newsletter during the application process as described
above. A ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ answer must be chosen to complete
the application process and gain receipt, by way of the certificate, as described
above. ‘Yes’ means you have opted in to receive the monthly Healthy
Lifestyle Newsletter and ‘No’ means you have opted out of receiving
the monthly Healthy Lifestyle Newsletter. Confirmation of reading these Privacy
Policy and Terms & Conditions is also a mandatory request before completion
of the application process, as described above. Failure to confirm you have
viewed the Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions will terminate your application
for a ‘Free Pass’ or ‘Special Offer’.
Other Information
In order to maintain and improve the www.gymlink.com.au and www.gymlink.co.nz

with your personally identifiable information.
In addition, if you respond to a poll or a research questionnaire, we will aggregate your responses with those of other www.gymlink.com.au or www.gymlink.co.nz members but we do not associate your response with any personally identifiable information.

Cookies
Like many web sites, we use "cookies", which are stored on your computer

Activity Tags
Like many web sites, we use "activity tags" (also called "Spotlight
tags"). These invisible tags provide information to third parties about
the flow of users on our site and other web sites. www.gymlink.com.au or www.gymlink.co.nz
also receives reports generated from that information. Information collected
through the use of activity tags on our site is never linked to any personally
identifiable information you provided to www.gymlink.com.au or www.gymlink.co.nz.

In providing this information, however, we do not reveal any personally identifiable information; only supply summary data about our community of users.
There are some limited circumstances in which we may need to disclose personally identifiable information about you, and we want you to know about them. We may employ other companies to perform functions on our behalf, such as fulfilling orders, delivering packages, providing customer service, sending mail, processing credit card payments, holding live chats, hosting message boards or other functions necessary for us to provide services to you. We may need to share your personally identifiable information with these companies. However, we will provide them with only the information necessary to perform their functions, and will not allow them to use that information for any other purposes.
In the interest of enhancing our service, we form partnerships with other web-based services. Some of these partnerships include the sharing of some of your personal information with our partners in order to extend these services to you. We require that our partners respect your privacy and not disclose your information to other organisations without your consent, but beyond that, our partners’ use of your information is governed by their privacy policies.
We may reveal user information if we believe that user is harming or interfering with other www.gymlink.com.au or www.gymlink.co.nz users, anyone else, or violating (either intentionally or unintentionally) our User Agreement, or infringing any of www.gymlink.com.au or www.gymlink.co.nz rights, or trespassing on, damaging, or abusing any of www.gymlink.com.au or www.gymlink.co.nz properties.
www.gymlink.com.au or www.gymlink.co.nz will reveal information, including personally identifiable information, to the extent it believes it is required to do so by law.
