Privacy Policy

Overview

Queens Fitness Studio knows that you care how information about you is used and shared, and we appreciate your trust that we will do so carefully and sensibly. This notice describes our privacy policy for the www.queensfitnessstudio.com web site (the “Website”).

If you have questions or concerns regarding this statement, you should contact us at jennifer@queensfitnessstudio.com. This privacy policy covers only information that is collected by and through the Website and does not cover information that may be collected through software downloaded from the site or other means.

Notice of Information We Collect And How We Use It

Our primary purpose in collecting personal information is to provide you with a safe and customized experience so that we may provide services and features that most likely meet your needs. We only collect personal information about you that we consider necessary for achieving our primary purpose.

In general, you can browse the Website without telling us who you are or revealing any personal information about yourself. However, once you give us your personal information, you are no longer anonymous to us.

Information We Collect About Anonymous Visitors

We automatically track certain information based upon your browsing on the Website. We use this information to do internal research on our users’ demographics, interests, and behavior to better understand, protect and serve you.

Log Files

Like many Web sites, we automatically gather certain information about our Website traffic and store it in log files. This information includes Internet protocol (IP) addresses, browser type, Internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, operating system, date/time stamp, and clickstream data. We use this information, which does not identify individual users, to analyze trends, to administer the Website, to track users’ movements around the Website and to make inventory purchasing decisions that will best serve our customer base.

We typically do not link this automatically collected data to personally identifiable information. When IP addresses are tied to personally identifiable information it is to offer customers the best user experience possible. We use a third-party tracking service that uses log files and cookies, see below, to track non-personally identifiable information about visitors to the Website as a whole which enables us to be provided with usage and volume statistics.

Cookies

A cookie is a small text file that is stored on a user’s computer for record-keeping purposes. We use cookies on this site. As noted above, we do not link the information we store in cookies to any personally identifiable information you submit while on our site. This privacy policy covers the use of cookies by the Website only and does not cover the use of cookies by any advertisers.

We use both session ID and persistent cookies.

A session cookie expires when you close you browser. We use session cookies to make it easier for you to navigate our site.

A persistent cookie remains on your hard drive for an extended period of time. You can remove persistent cookies by following directions provided in your Internet browser’s “help” file.

This information is collected for the purpose of ensuring that the Website best meets the needs of its users. An analysis of this information allows us to dedicate the necessary resources to supporting our online activities.

If you reject cookies, you may still use our site, but your ability to use some areas of our site, such as contests or surveys, will be limited.

Some of our business partners (e.g., advertisers) use cookies on our site. We have no access to or control over these cookies. See “Third Party Advertisers.”

Clear Gifs (Web Beacons/Web Bugs)

We employ a software technology called clear gifs, also referred to as web beacons or web bugs, that help manage content on the Website by tracking what content is effective. Clear gifs are tiny graphics with a unique identifier, similar in function to cookies, and are used to track the online movements of Web users. In contrast to cookies, which are stored on a user’s computer hard drive, clear gifs are embedded invisibly on Web pages and are about the size of the period at the end of this sentence.

We use clear gifs in our HTML-based emails to let us know which emails recipients have opened. This allows us to gauge the effectiveness of certain communications and the effectiveness of our marketing campaigns. If you would like to opt-out of these emails, please see “Choice and Opt-out.”
