We comply with all relevant data protection laws, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR: EU Regulation 2016/679). We ask that you read this privacy policy (“Policy”) carefully as it contains important information on who we are, how and why we collect, store, use and share personal information, your rights in relation to your personal information and on how to contact us and supervisory authorities in the event you have a complaint.
Any capitalized terms used throughout this Policy that are defined in our Terms of Use, have the same meaning in this Policy.

Whenever you use our App, you will provide us with and we will obtain from you, either directly or indirectly, certain personal data. For example when you sign up for an account, when you fill in forms provided by us, when you purchase products or services through our App, when you participate in competitions, when you participate in our community, and when you communicate with us.
Please note that you can always monitor and control the processing of your personal data by exercising Your rights.
It depends on the particular activities carried out by you through our App which of the following personal data we collect and process from you:
We also need to collect personal data from you from time to time which is considered to be sensitive. Such data can only be processed by us when you give us your explicit consent to do so, or if it is necessary to do so to protect your vital interests (e.g. in a medical emergency), or if you make such data public yourself:
You agree and acknowledge that any individual’s Protected Health Information that comes within our custody, exposure, possession or knowledge or is created, maintained, retained, transmitted, derived, developed, compiled, prepared or used by us in the course of or in connection with the performance of services under this Agreement, is confidential and shall remain the exclusive property of our Company and shall be used, disclosed, transmitted and/or maintained solely in accordance with our Terms and Condition and as Required By Law. We agree to comply with our obligations as a Business Associate and acknowledge that we are subject to and agree to comply with HIPAA and all applicable guidance and regulations issued by the government to implement HIPAA and all other applicable law.
THE USE OF THIRD-PARTY CONNECTIONS
In some circumstances, we may also receive personal information about you via third parties.
If you access our App through a third-party connection or log-in, such as Google or Facebook, that third party may pass on certain information about your use of its service to us. This information could include the user ID associated with your account (for example, your Facebook UID), an access token necessary to access that service, any information that you have permitted the third party to share with us, and any information you have made public in connection with that service. We do not control how such third parties process and share your personal information with us. You should therefore always review, and if necessary, adjust your privacy settings on such third-party sites and services before linking or connecting them to us. You may also unlink your third-party account from our App by adjusting your settings on the relevant third-party service.
Our App may also include social media features, such as the Facebook Like button. Our integration of these features may allow third-party social media to collect certain information about you, such as your IP address, and to set a cookie to enable the feature to function properly. Social media features are either hosted by a third party or hosted directly through the use of our App. Your interactions with these features are governed by the privacy policy of the company providing the feature.
PURPOSES AND LAWFUL BASES FOR PROCESSING YOUR PERSONAL DATA
Most of your personal data is collected and processed so that we can offer you the full range of benefits and functionalities of our App. This includes to offer you our products and services and to let you participate in our community. This processing is necessary to perform our contract with you and to provide you with the products and services we offer.
We will sometimes process personal data to comply with legal obligations imposed on us, for example in relation to the prevention of fraud and money laundering or in relation to tax regulations.
We may also use your personal data if it is in our legitimate interests to do so. Such interests include our ongoing effort to provide, improve and safeguard the different functionalities we offer.
If none of the above lawful bases apply to the processing of your data, we rely on your consent to process such data. For example, if you enable your location on your device, this is your consent for us to process your location. If you do not want us to process your location, you can turn off this feature on your device. However, if you choose to turn off the location on your device you won’t be able to enjoy all of the functionalities of our App, because some of those will be based on your location. Besides personal data that we need to fulfill our obligations to you, you will also have the option to submit more information about yourself. This is done on a voluntary basis. By submitting such additional information, you express your consent to process such data. You also have to give us your consent to enable us to use your personal data for marketing purposes, such as sending you our newsletter by e-mail. We will gather your consent when you sign up for an account. Whenever we rely on your consent to process your personal data, you can withdraw such consent at any time.
We commit to maintaining the confidentiality of Your Personal Data and ensuring that You can exercise Your rights.

SHARING YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We would like to stress that we do not sell your personal information to any other party.
However, we do share your personal information with the following categories of third parties.
We share your personal data with them for the performance of any contract we enter into with them or you. This includes, for example, a distributor, a customer service provider, a payment provider, a technical maintenance provider and a marketing automation provider.
We use Shopify Inc. as a host of our online e-commerce store, allowing us to sell our products and services to you. If you use our online store, you should also refer to the privacy policy of Shopify (which can be found via this link).
Credit and debit card companies are used to facilitate your payments to us, and for anti-fraud screening. They need information about your method of payment to process payment or ensure the security of your payment transaction. These may include third party payment gateway providers, including at www.stripe.com or www.paypal.com or www.apple.com. Before entering your personal details we suggest that you read and become familiar with the privacy policy for any such third-party provider.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Madfit App will not use or disclose to third parties user data gathered from Apple, Inc. Healthkit framework or Healthkit API for advertising or other use-based data mining purposes other than improving health, or for the purpose of health research. In no event will any information be collected from Healthkit users for use by third parties in compliance with this section without obtaining user consent.
We will also share your personal data in the following circumstances:
In the event we receive a legal request to disclose your personal data, we may notify you of such request before we do so, unless this is expressly prohibited by the authority making the request or if notifying you would be detrimental to us, the party requesting your personal information, or any other person affected, or to the investigation itself. If we can’t notify you of such requests beforehand for the reasons set out before, we will try to notify you afterwards.
HOW AND FOR HOW LONG WE KEEP YOUR PERSONAL DATA
We put appropriate security measures in place to prevent personal data from being accidentally lost, or used or otherwise accessed in an unauthorised way. We limit access to your personal information to those who have a genuine business need to know it. Those processing your information will do so only in an authorised manner and are subject to a duty of confidentiality.
All information you provide to us is stored on secure servers. Any payment transactions will be encrypted (using SSL technology). SSL is the industry standard method of encrypting personal information and credit card details so that they can be securely transferred over the internet.
You are responsible for keeping your password confidential. We ask you not to share a password with anyone.
Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our App; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.
We only retain your personal data for as long as your account is active or for as long as we need it to fulfil the purposes for which we have initially collected it, unless otherwise required by law. We may retain certain information for longer to comply with applicable laws, to prevent fraud, or for obligations we have in relation to tax regulations.
TRANSFER OF PERSONAL INFORMATION OUTSIDE THE EEA
Our App may be used by users located all over the world. If you are a user located in the European Economic Area (EEA): the personal data that we receive and collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the EEA. It may also be processed by staff operating outside the EEA who work for us or for one of our suppliers.
Such countries may not have the same data protection laws as the EU. In the event your personal information is transferred to such countries, we have ensured that appropriate safeguards are put in place to protect your privacy rights and give you remedies in the unlikely event of a misuse of your personal information.
We will not otherwise transfer your personal data outside of the EEA.
YOUR RIGHTS
Under data protection laws, you have the following rights, which you can enjoy free of charge:
You have the right to ask us to restrict the processing of your personal data if either one of the following applies:

CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may make changes to this Policy from time to time. We will notify you via our App if any material changes have been made to this Policy and/or we may e-mail you our revised Policy. If we need your renewed consent for anything, we will ask you for it.
MAKE A COMPLAINT
If you encounter any problems in relation to the use of your personal information, please contact us so we can try to resolve your issue or concern. If you are a user based in an EU member state you also have the right to lodge a complaint with the supervisory authority in the EU member state where you work, normally live or where any alleged data infringement of data protection has occurred.
