CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS: YOUR PRIVACY RIGHTS

information ("PII") from California residents and disclose
such information to third parties (including affiliated entities) for
marketing purposes must, in response to a request by a consumer,
either (1) provide a list detailing the categories of information
shared and the entities to which such information was provided or (2)
provide a mechanism by which a consumer may opt-out of having their
information shared with third parties. We have elected the second
option and you may request that your PII not be shared with third
parties by sending your request, including your full name, email
address and postal address to: CAFitness.com, Attn: Support Officers,
3393 Dalhart Ave, Simi Valley, CA 93063.
STATEMENT OF RESPONSIBLE ONLINE MARKETING
The
SJScott Network's information usage practices are based on two
beliefs: first, that protecting user privacy is essential to the
growth and prosperity of the Internet; second, that a personalized
web experience can provide significant benefits to Internet end users
if done properly. In accordance with these beliefs, the SJScott
Network creates opportunities for advertisers and consumers in
revolutionary ways without compromising individual privacy.
I. INFORMATION WE COLLECT: INDIVIDUAL INTERNET CONSUMERS
A. Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
The
SJScott Network sites are designed to offer Internet consumers with a
variety of valuable products. When you place an order with a SJScott
Network site, you will be asked to provide your name, address, zip
code, email address and billing information. This information is used
to process your order and we cannot do so without it.
The SJScott Network may use your PII for customer service, to
provide you with information that you may request, to customize your
experience on the Site, and to contact you when necessary in
connection with transactions entered into by you on the Site. We also
may use your personal information for internal business purposes,
such as analyzing and managing our business or combine the
information we have gathered about you with information from other
sources.
Unless you tell us not to, we may use your personal information to
contact you about offers or promotions from the SJScott Network and
selected third parties we think you would be interested in.
B. Non-Personally Identifiable Information (PII).
When
you visit a SJScott Network site, we send a cookie and/or gif file
("Cookies") to assign an anonymous, unique identifier to
the end user's Internet browser. Cookies are small data files
commonly used on the Internet to help optimize and personalize the
Internet end user experience and identify repeat visitors to
websites. For example, Cookies enable SJScott to track your shopping
cart and retrieve your information and preferences when you return to
our site.
For each visitor to our website, our Web server automatically
recognizes only the visitor's IP address. We use your IP address to
help diagnose problems with our server and to administer our website.
Upon visiting our website, we assign each visitor a unique ID that is
used to track visitor traffic patterns within our website. We also
collect aggregate and user-specific information on what pages
visitors access or visit. We reserve the right to retain all website
traffic reporting data as long as may be reasonably necessary for
accounting and auditing purposes.
II. INFORMATION SHARING
The SJScott Network may use third party vendors (e.g., credit
card processors) to help us operate our business and SJScott Network
sites or administer activities on our behalf. We may share your
information with these third parties for those limited purposes. Any
third-party vendor so used has agreed to protect the confidentiality
of information provided by SJScott .
The SJScott Network and/or our marketing partners may enhance
and/or merge PII about consumers who have opted-in to receive
marketing communications with commercially-available third party data
collected from other sources in an effort to ensure that the messages
being sent to the consumer in online and/or offline marketing
programs are relevant to their interests. In the event we enhance
and/or merge such personally identifiable information with data
collected from other sources, we will take reasonable steps to
maintain the integrity and quality of that information.
The SJScott Network may share PII (including information that has
been enhanced with information from other sources) with advertisers,
third party marketers, our affiliated entities for their online
and/or offline marketing programs or in connection with the sale,
merger, consolidation, change in control, transfer of substantial
asset, reorganization or liquidation of any of the SJScott Network
companies. While SJScott strongly encourages clients and partners to
adopt responsible approaches to online marketing, SJScott is not
responsible for the information practices of clients or their
partners. The collection, use, and disclosure of information by
clients and partners are subject to their respective privacy
policies, which may differ from this policy.
The SJScott Network may release account and any other personal
information when we believe release is appropriate to respond to a
subpoena or otherwise comply with the law; enforce or apply our Terms
and Conditions and other agreements; or protect the rights,
property, or safety of SJScott or others. This includes exchanging
information with other companies and organizations for fraud
protection.
III. CONSUMER CHOICE AND ACCESS
If at anytime you no longer wish to receive offers from a
CAFitness.com, you may "unsubscribe" through this website
or by using the unsubscribe option within any promotional offer. In
compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act, you will be removed entirely from
our email list and will no longer receive offers from us. If you have
registered or submitted PII under more than one email account, you
must submit separate unsubscribe requests from each account.
The Cookies we use do not have an "opt-out" option, yet
you still have the option of blocking the use of cookies by changing
a setting in your Internet browser. Please see your browser
supplier's website for details on how to do this.
The SJScott Network uses software and third-party sources to
validate the accuracy of PII provided and/or filter suspicious data.
You may change, correct or update your information by email by
contacting
. Changing or deleting your information or otherwise opting-out of
receipt of communications from the SJScott Network will change or
delete the data only in our database for purposes of transacting
future business on our sites and for managing future communications
from CAFitness.com. These changes and deletions will not change or
delete information already collected as part of a particular
transaction.
IV. SECURITY
The SJScott Network employs industry standard security measures
to ensure the security of all data. Any data that is stored on
SJScott ' servers is treated as proprietary and confidential and is
not available to the public. SJScott also encrypts sensitive
information such as passwords and financial data. SJScott has an
internal security policy with respect to the confidentiality of
customer and other data, allowing access only to those employees or
third parties who have a need to know such information for the
purpose of effectively delivering SJScott products and services by
means of user login and password requirements. The SJScott Network
routinely evaluates its data security practices to identify security
threats or opportunities for improvement.
No transmission of data over the Internet is guaranteed to be
completely secure. It may be possible for third parties not under the
control of SJScott to intercept or access transmissions or private
communications unlawfully. While we strive to protect your PII,
SJScott cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information you
transmit to us. You acknowledge and assume this risk when
communicating with a SJScott Network company.
V. CONSENT AND CHANGES
The SJScott Network may find it necessary or be legally obligated
to update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will
post those changes on this page and update the effective date so that
you are always aware of the information we collect, how we use it,
and under what circumstances we disclose it. Except as otherwise
required by law, modifications to this Privacy Policy will not affect
the privacy of data collected by SJScott prior to the effective date
of the policy change unless we provide you direct notice and the
opportunity to opt-out of such proposed change.
VI. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY AND SPAM
The SJScott Network is very sensitive to the issue of children's
privacy and makes every effort to protect the privacy of children
using the Internet. SJScott ' web sites, products, and services are
not developed for or directed at children. Our policy is not to
permit anyone under the age of 13 to do business with us. If you
believe your child has provided the SJScott Network with any
personally identifiable data by registering at a SJScott web site,
please contact
to have them removed.
The SJScott Network is committed to proper Internet practices and
full compliance with the CAN-SPAM Act of 2003 (15 U.S.C. §
7701). It is our policy to prohibit the sending of unsolicited or
"Spam" email by SJScott or any of its marketing partners.
Please note that under the CAN-SPAM Act, an advertiser is required
to provide an opt-out mechanism for consumers to unsubscribe from
future emails about the advertiser. Although not required to by law,
many email marketers also include an opt-out mechanism to enable
consumers to be removed from their mailing list. This has caused some
confusion for consumers in opting out. The table below clarifies
which opt-out mechanism you should use.
