NorthRidge Fitness does not intentionally retain complete payment card
numbers or card security codes in its own records when payment processing

Club Automation and other service providers may process personal
information under their own privacy notices and contractual arrangements.
We encourage you to review the applicable notices when using their services.
5. When We Share Personal Information
NorthRidge Fitness does not sell personal information for money.
We may share personal information in the following circumstances:
Service providers. We may share information with Club Automation,
payment processors, website hosting providers, email and text messaging
services, and other vendors that help us operate our business.
Legal compliance. We may disclose information when required by law,
court order, subpoena, or other lawful processes.
Safety and security. We may disclose information when reasonably
necessary to protect our members, guests, employees, property, rights, or the
safety of others, or to investigate suspected fraud or unlawful activity.
Business transactions. Information may be transferred as part of a potential
or completed sale, merger, restructuring, or transfer of business assets,
subject to applicable law.
With your consent. We may share information when you direct us to do so
or otherwise authorize the disclosure.
We do not authorize service providers to use personal information obtained
solely on our behalf for unrelated purposes except as permitted by applicable
law and our arrangements with those providers.
This policy does not constitute a blanket promise that information is never
shared for advertising or analytics purposes. If our website uses third-party
advertising or tracking technologies, we will provide any additional
disclosures and choices required by law.
6. Website Cookies and Analytics
Our website may use cookies or similar technologies to support essential
website functions, remember preferences, measure website traffic, or improve
our services.
The technologies used may depend on our website platform and any third-
party services connected to it. These technologies may collect technical
information, including browser details, device information, pages visited, and
interactions with our website.
We are reviewing the specific cookies, analytics services, and tracking
technologies used on our website. Accordingly, this policy does not represent
that a particular analytics or advertising service is currently installed.
If cookies or other tracking technologies are used, you may be able to
manage certain preferences through your browser or a website cookie-
preference tool, if available. Where required by applicable law, we will
provide appropriate consent mechanisms and honor applicable opt-out
preference signals.

through email and text messaging.
These communications may include:
• Membership and billing notifications.
• Facility announcements, closures, and maintenance updates.
• Schedule changes and other service-related information.
• Responses to questions or requests.
• Newsletters, promotions, and marketing messages where permitted.
We may send necessary service-related communications associated with your

where permitted by law.
Marketing emails: You may unsubscribe using the link included in a
marketing email or contact us directly.
Marketing text messages: Where required, we will obtain appropriate
consent before sending marketing texts. You may opt out by replying STOP
when supported by the messaging service or by contacting NorthRidge
Fitness.
Message and data rates may apply. Your consent to receive marketing text
messages is not a condition of purchasing a membership or service.
We may share your telephone number and messaging preferences with
providers that help us deliver text messages. Mobile opt-in, consent, and
related information will not be shared with third parties or affiliates for their
own marketing or promotional purposes.
8. Children’s Information and Childcare
NorthRidge Fitness provides supervised childcare at our facility. Parents and
legal guardians may provide information about children when registering
them for childcare or related services.
We may use this information to:
• Register children for childcare.
• Verify parent or guardian contact information.
• Maintain emergency contact and authorized pickup records.
• Communicate with parents or guardians.
• Respond to safety concerns and administer our childcare services.
We limit access to children’s information to personnel who need it to perform
their assigned responsibilities.
Our general website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not
knowingly collect personal information online directly from children under
13 except as permitted by applicable law and with any required parental
consent.
If we learn that we have collected personal information directly online from a
child under 13 in circumstances requiring parental consent without obtaining
the necessary consent, we will take appropriate steps to address the situation.
Parents and legal guardians may contact us to request access to or correction
of their child’s information, subject to applicable law and legitimate
recordkeeping requirements.
9. Information Security
We take reasonable administrative, technical, and physical measures
designed to protect personal information from unauthorized access, loss,
misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
We also rely on third-party providers for membership management, payment
processing, and other business services. No method of electronic transmission
or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
If you believe your account or personal information has been compromised,
please contact NorthRidge Fitness promptly.
10. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to
administer memberships, process transactions, provide services, resolve
disputes, maintain appropriate business records, and comply with legal and
regulatory obligations.
Retention periods vary depending on the type of information and the purpose
for which it was collected.
When information is no longer reasonably necessary, we will take
appropriate steps to delete, destroy, or de-identify it, subject to applicable
law, contractual requirements, and legitimate business needs.

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have the right to:
• Request access to certain personal information we maintain about you.
• Request a copy of certain personal information.
• Request correction of inaccurate information.
• Request deletion of certain personal information.

your request.
We will respond within the timeframes and according to the procedures
required by applicable law. We will not unlawfully discriminate against
individuals for exercising applicable privacy rights.
12. Third-Party Websites and Services

services. NorthRidge Fitness does not control the privacy practices or
security of those third parties.
Please review the privacy notices of third-party websites and services before
submitting personal information to them.
13. Privacy Signals and Tracking Preferences
Some browsers offer privacy signals intended to communicate a user’s
preference regarding online tracking or targeted advertising.
Where required by applicable law, NorthRidge Fitness will honor recognized
opt-out preference signals, including Global Privacy Control, for covered
