Cookies and other Tracking Technologies
gogym.ph uses cookies and other similar technologies, such as mobile application identifiers, on the Platform. We may also allow our business partners to use their cookies and other tracking technologies on the Platform. As a result, when you access or use the Platform, you will provide or make available certain information to us and to our business partners.
Third-Party Social Plugins
While you may disable the usage of cookies through your browser settings, we do not change our practices in response to a "Do Not Track" signal in the HTTP header from your browser. We track your activities if you click on advertisements for gogym.ph services on third party platforms such as search engines and social networks, and may use analytics to track what you do in response to those advertisements.
We may, either directly or through third party companies and individuals we engage to provide services to us, also continue to track your behavior on our own Platform for purposes of our own customer support, analytics, research, product development, fraud prevention, risk assessment, regulatory compliance, investigation, as well as to enable you to use and access the Platform and pay for your activities on the Platform. We may also, either directly or through third party companies and individuals we engage to provide services to us track your behavior on our own Platform to market and advertise our services to you on the Platform and third party websites. Third parties that use cookies and other tracking technologies to deliver targeted advertisements on our Platform and/or third party websites may offer you a way to prevent such targeted advertisements by opting-out at the websites of industry groups such as the Network Advertising Initiative ( http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ ) and/or the Digital Advertising Alliance ( http://www.aboutads.info/choices/). You may also be able to control advertising cookies provided by publishers, for example Google's Ad Preference Manager ( https://www.google.com/settings/ads/onweb/). Please note that even if you choose to opt-out of receiving targeted advertising, you may still receive advertising on or about the Platform - it just will not be tailored to your interests.
Third parties may not collect information about users' online activities on the Platform except as described in this policy and our Cookie Policy. Our Platform may use social plugins which are provided and operated by third-party companies, such as Facebook's Like Button. As a result of this, you may send to the third-party company the information that you are viewing on a certain part of our Platform. If you are not logged into your account with the third-party company, then the third party may not know your identity. If you are logged into your account with the third-party company, then the third party may be able to link information about your visit to our Platform to your account with them. Similarly, your interactions with the social plugin may be recorded by the third party. Please refer to the third party's privacy policy to find out more about its data practices, such as what data is collected about you and how the third party uses such data.
HOW gogym.ph USES AND PROCESSES THE INFORMATION THAT YOU PROVIDE OR MAKE AVAILABLE
We use, store and process Information about you for the following general purposes:
To enable you to access and use the Platform;
To operate, protect, improve and optimize the Platform, gogym.ph's business, and our users' experience, such as to perform analytics, conduct research, personalize or otherwise customize your experience, and for advertising and marketing;
To help create and maintain a trusted and safer environment on the Platform and Services, such as fraud detection and prevention, conducting investigations and risk assessments, verifying the address of your listings, verifying any identifications provided by you, and conducting checks against databases such as public government databases;
To send you service, support and administrative messages, reminders, technical notices, updates, security alerts, and information requested by you;
Where we have your consent, to send you marketing and promotional messages and other information that may be of interest to you, including information about gogym.ph or general promotions for partner campaigns and services. You can unsubscribe or opt-out from receiving these communications in your settings (in the "Account" section) when you login to your gogym.ph account;
To administer referral programs, rewards, surveys, sweepstakes, contests, or other promotional activities or events sponsored or managed by gogym.ph or our business partners; and
To comply with our legal obligations, resolve any disputes that we may have with any of our users, and enforce our agreements with third parties.
HOW gogym.ph USES AND PROCESSES USER COMMUNICATIONS
We may, either directly or through third party companies and individuals we engage to provide services to us, review, scan, or analyze your communications with other users exchanged via the Platform for fraud prevention, risk assessment, regulatory compliance, investigation, product development, research and customer support purposes. For example, as part of our fraud prevention efforts, the Platform may scan and analyze messages to mask contact information and references to other websites. This helps to prevent fraudulent actors from asking Renters to send them money outside of the Platform, such as by bank transfer or other money transfer methods. We may also scan, review or analyze messages for research and product development purposes to help make search, booking and user communications more efficient and effective, as well as to debug, improve and expand product offerings. We will not review, scan, or analyze your communications for sending third party marketing messages to you. We will also not sell these reviews or analyses of communications to third parties. We will also use automated methods to carry out these reviews or analyses where reasonably possible. However, from time to time we may have to manually review some communications. By using the Platform, you consent that gogym.ph, in its sole discretion, may, either directly or through third party companies and individuals we engage to provide services to us, review, scan, analyze, and store your communications, whether done manually or through automated means.
WHEN gogym.ph DISCLOSES OR SHARES PERSONAL INFORMATION, AND TO WHOM
IMPORTANT: When you use the Platform, your data may be sent to the United States and possibly other countries.
Your Personal Information may be disclosed as follows:
Parts of your public profile page that contain some Personal Information may be displayed in other parts of the Platform to other users for marketing purposes or to the extent necessary to operate and manage referral and rewards programs.
Your public Listing page will always include some minimum information such as the city and neighborhood where the Gym is located, your listing description, your calendar availability, your public profile photo and your responsiveness in replying to Renters' queries. Your public Listing page may also include aggregated demand information (such as number of page views over a period of time). Parts of your public Listing page may be displayed in other parts of the Platform to other users for marketing purposes. The Platform may also display the Gym’s approximate geographic location on a map, such that a user can see the general area of the Gym.
The Platform allows your public profile and public Listing pages to be included in search engines, in which case your public profile and public Listing pages will be indexed by search engines and may be published as search results. This option is enabled by default, and you may opt out of this feature by changing your settings on the Platform. If you change your settings or the information on your public profile or public Listing pages, third-party search engines may not update their databases quickly or at all. We do not control the practices of third-party search engines, and they may use caches containing outdated information, including any information indexed by the search engine before you change your settings or the information on your public profile or public Listing pages.
When you submit a request to book a Gym Session, your full name will become visible to the Landlord. In addition, if you agree to be contacted by the Landlord by phone when submitting your request and the Landlord decides to do so, gogym.ph will call your phone number first, before connecting you with the Landlord. We will not share your phone number unless there is a confirmed booking; if there is a confirmed booking, your phone number will become visible to the Landlord/Renter, who may call you directly.
When your request to book a Gym Session is accepted by the GoGym, we will disclose some of your Personal Information to the Management team. However, your billing and payout information will never be shared with another user.
When a user uses the gym facility, we will ask you to review the service. If you choose to provide a review, your review may be public on the Platform.
You may link your account on a third party social networking site to your gogym.ph account. We refer to a person's contacts on these third party sites as "Friends". When you create this linkage:

The information you provide to us from the linking of your accounts may be stored, processed and transmitted for fraud prevention and risk assessment purposes.
The publication and display of information that you provide to gogym.ph through this linkage is subject to your settings and authorizations on the Platform and the third party site.
We may distribute parts of the Platform (including your Listing) for display on sites operated by gogym.ph 's business partners and affiliates, using technologies such as HTML widgets. If and when your Listings are displayed on a partner's site, information from your public profile page may also be displayed.
We may allow our related entities such as our subsidiaries, and their employees, to use and process your Personal Information in the same way and to the same extent that we are permitted to under this Privacy Policy. These related entities comply with the same obligations that we have to protect your Personal Information under this Privacy Policy.
We may also engage third party companies and individuals, who may be located outside of the EEA, to provide services to us, including but not limited to technology services and services to help verify your identification, to conduct checks against databases such as public government databases (where legally allowed), to otherwise assist us with fraud prevention and risk assessment, to assist us with customer service, and to facilitate the payments or reimbursements you request (such as Concur and American Express). We may provide Personal Information about you to these third parties, or give them access to this Personal Information, for the limited purpose of allowing them to provide these services. We will ensure that such third parties have contractual obligations to protect this Personal Information and to not use it for unrelated purposes.
For any jurisdiction in which we facilitate the Collection and Remittance of Taxes or Opt-in for company Remittance of Taxes as described in the "Taxes" section of the Terms of Service, Gym users expressly grant us permission, without further notice, to store, transfer and disclose data and other information relating to them or to their Transactions, Bookings, Taxes, including, but not limited to, personally identifiable information such as user’s name, listing addresses, transaction dates and amounts, tax identification number(s), the amount of taxes received by GoGym from users, or allegedly due, contact information and similar information, to the relevant Tax Authority.

We will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify users about law enforcement requests for their data unless:
providing notice is prohibited by the legal process itself, by court order we receive, or by applicable law;
based on information supplied by law enforcement, we, in our sole discretion, believe: (a) that providing notice could create a risk of injury or death to an individual or group of individuals, (b) that the case involves potential harm to minors, or (c) that harm or fraud could be directed to gogym.ph, its Members, the Platform, or Services.

We are continuously implementing and updating administrative, technical, and physical security measures to help protect your Personal Information against unauthorized access, destruction or alteration.
