Privacy Policy
The following statement explains our policy regarding the personal
information we collect about you, and is effective from November
9th 2004.
1. Statement of intent
You may be asked to submit personal information about yourself (such
as your name and e-mail address) in order to receive or use services
on our website. Such services include newsletters, surveys and membership
to the site. Whenever you provide such personal information, we
will treat that information in accordance with this policy. Our
services are designed to give you the information that you want
to receive. We will act in accordance with current legislation and
aim to meet current Internet best practice.
2. Information on visitors
During the course of any visit to thefactsaboutfitness.com, the
pages you see, along with something called a cookie, are downloaded
to your computer (see point 3 for more on this). Most, if not all,
websites do this, because cookies allow the website publisher to
do useful things like find out whether the computer (and probably
its user) has visited the site before. This is done on a repeat
visit by checking to see, and finding, the cookie left there on
the last visit.
Any information that is supplied by cookies can help us to provide
you with a better service and helps us meet the needs and goals
of our visitors.
Log files provide non-personal statistical information about visits
to pages on the site, the duration of individual page view, paths
taken by visitors through the site, data on visitors' screen settings
and other general information. The factsaboutfitness.com uses this
type of information to help it improve the services to its users.
3. What is a cookie?
When you enter a site your computer will automatically be issued
with a cookie. Cookies are text files that identify your computer
to our server. Cookies in themselves do not identify the individual
user, just the computer used. Many sites do this whenever a user
visits their site in order to track traffic flows.
Cookies themselves only record those areas of the site that have
been visited by the computer in question, and for how long. Users
have the opportunity to set their computers to accept all cookies,
to notify them when a cookie is issued, or not to receive cookies
at any time. The last of these, of course, means that certain personalized
services cannot then be provided to that user.
4. Use and storage of your personal information
When you supply any personal information to thefactsaboutfitness.com
(e.g. to receive the newsletter) we will explain how we will
use it and tell you if we want to pass the information on to
anyone else. Any information you provide to thefactsaboutfitness.com
will only be used by us. It will never be rented, traded or sold,
unless we are obliged by law to disclose it.
We will hold your information on our systems for as long as you
use the service you have requested, and remove it in the event that
the purpose has been met, or you request that we remove it.
If you wish to update your personal information, please send your
request to support@thefactsaboutfitness.com

5. Advertising
We use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our website. These companies may use information (not including your name, address, e-mail address, or telephone number) about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide advertisements about goods and services of interest to you. If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices about not having this information used by these companies, please go to http://www.google.com/privacy_ads.html.
