EFFECTIVE: January 2020
LAST UPDATED: October 7, 2026
Fitness International, LLC, together with its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, "Company," "us," "we," or "our") is committed to protecting the privacy of Personal Data (i.e., information reasonably related to a specific individual). This Privacy Policy ("Policy") describes how we process Personal Data of California residents who apply for a job with us ("Applicants"). If you interact with our website, purchase our products or services, or otherwise engage with us outside of the job application context, the privacy policy provided in connection with that interaction applies instead, not this Policy.
Whenever you interact with us on behalf of another individual or entity, such as if you provide us with names of other individuals as references in your job application, you must obtain their consent (or have the legal authority without consent) to share their Personal Data with us.
Changes: We may update this Policy from time to time. Any updated Policy will be effective when posted. Please check this Policy periodically for updates. If required by law, we will contact you directly to provide you with an updated Policy.
This Policy does not form part of any contract of employment or other contract to provide services and does not give you any contractual rights.
