ABC FITNESS SOLUTIONS, LLC 

Effective Date: January 1, 2020 


ABC Fitness Solutions, LLC (“ABC” or “we”) offers health club software-as-a service (the “Software”) and third-party payment processing and collection  services (“Payment Services”) to health clubs. We also operate a website site  located at www.abcfitness.com (the “Website”) and, as components of the  Software, we operate various software applications, such as myiclubonline  (the “Applications”). This Privacy Notice describes our current policy regarding  the collection, maintenance, and disclosure of information concerning the  general public who may visit our Website and health clubs and health club  members who use our Payment Services or our Applications. 


Our privacy policies and this Privacy Notice may change from time to time.  Your continued use after we make changes is deemed to be acceptance of  those changes, so please check the policy periodically for updates. 

California Consumers ABC’s California Consumer Privacy Notice is  available here. 


Information Collection and Use—Generally 

If a health club purchases Payment Services, we collect personal information  from a health club member (“you”) when you contract with a health club and  create a health club member account. If your health club has purchased the 


Software, then through your use of our Applications, we collect information  when you use your health club’s facilities and services. We may also receive  personally-identifiable information from our resellers and other business  partners.


By using our Website, Applications, products, services, features, tools, or  resources, you agree to the terms of this Privacy Notice and our Terms of Use.  You may not use our Website, our Applications, or our products or services if  you do not agree to this Privacy Notice and our Terms of Use. You may refuse  or withdraw your consent at any time; however, we may not then be able to  provide you with our full range of products and services. 


This Privacy Notice does not apply to the practices of companies that we do  not own or control, or to people that we do not employ or manage. In  particular, if you access our Applications through your health club’s website,  you may want to review your health club’s privacy policy because this Privacy  Notice does not apply to your health club’s website and we do not review or  monitor any health club’s website and we are not responsible for the contents  or privacy policies related to any other website. Likewise, if our Website  contains a link to a website owned and/or operated by someone else, such  website’s use may be subject to different and additional terms of service and  privacy policy terms and conditions. 

We may also use third-party vendors, such as Google Analytics, to advertise  to our users online. These third-party vendors may display product  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  Website or another site affiliated with our 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. 


Information Collection and Use—Payment Services 

When a health club purchases Payment Services and registers with us, we ask  for the contact information (such as name, street address, and email  address) of an individual responsible for the health club, as well as certain  information pertaining to the health club’s business, including, without 

limitation, billing information such as a bank account and/or credit card  number. 


In the course of processing a payment transaction, we typically receive from  the health club or a financial institution information related to the transaction.  This normally includes information about the payment that a health club  member has furnished the health club or financial institution in placing the  order. 


Although the personally-identifiable information we acquire in processing  payment transactions varies according to the nature of the transaction and  the way in which a health club or financial institutions uses our Payment  Services, the information collected typically includes: name, postal address,  email address, phone numbers, bank account or credit/debit card  information, photographs, and communications with us including e-mail  correspondence and audio recordings of phone calls with consumers about  their accounts. We use information we collect or obtain in connection with our  Payment Services to communicate with health club members, process and  collect payments owed to its health club clients, and maintain up to date  account information for consumers. A payment transaction may include, for  example, the amount of the transaction, the consumer’s name, credit card  number and expiration date, checking account number, billing address, and  shipping address. 


In providing Payment Services, we use the information collected to fulfill a  health club’s requests for certain products and services, to process payment  transactions, to facilitate billing, and otherwise deliver the Payment Services.  We may also send Health clubs service announcements, newsletters, and  periodic notices about specials, new products and services, and products  and services offered by our business partners. In connection with our  Payment Services, we use personally-identifiable consumer information to  process payment transactions and for no other purpose. We may also collect  personal information about you from other sources as needed to complete  your transactions with your health club to deliver communications to you  more easily. We obtain information from our health club clients and third-parties, such as public records databases, that provide updated contact  information to us.

Any of these third party applications will  have their own privacy policies and terms regarding the collection, use and  maintenance of data entered through that third party application.
