Data Protection & Privacy Policy
 

Rudis Fitness Limited, is strongly committed to the security and protection of members’ personal information and we do our utmost at all times to ensure privacy. We take the security and privacy of our customers very seriously. We strive to conform to the UK and European Data Protection laws. We do not share any information with unrelated third parties (unless required to by law), nor do we collect or retain any information other than that necessary for us to provide our services to you.


We will uphold the 6 principles for data processing: Lawfulness, fairness and transparency; Purpose limitation; Data minimisation; Storage limitation; Integrity & confidentiality (security), and Accountability. This policy aims to cover these principles.

Data Controllers & Data Processors 

There are two important roles regarding data use. These are:

 

Data Controllers– a person who (either alone, jointly or in common with other persons) determines the purposes for which, and the manner in which, any personal data is to be processed.

 

Data Processors– in relation to personal data, means any person (other than an employee of a data controller), who processes the data on behalf of the data controller.  (“Processing”, in relation to information/data, means obtaining, recording or holding the information/data or carrying out any operation or set of operations on it, including; organisation, adaptation or alteration of the information/data, retrieval, consultation or use of the information/data, disclosure of the information/data by transmission, dissemination or otherwise making available, or alignment, combination, blocking, erasure or destruction of the information/data.

 

Under these definitions, Rudis Fitness Limited is a data controller, and TeamUp and GoCardless are both a data controller and processor. TeamUp and GoCardless have their own procedures for their responsibilities which conform to BS7799-3. Please visit https://goteamup.com/ and https://gocardless.com/ for more information on Team Up & GoCardless.

 

At present, Rudis Fitness Ltd only process personal data for core business purposes and so are exempt from registering with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at this time. Should this change, this policy will be reviewed immediately.

  

What data do we collect?

If you email us or sign up for a service, Rudis Fitness may obtain the following information; Name, Email Address, Address, and Phone Number.


How do we obtain your data?

You directly supply Rudis Fitness with any data we collect. This is collected and processed when you register online and register for our services, voluntarily complete a customer survey or provide feedback on any of our services, or use/view our website via your internet browser’s cookies.

Rudis Fitness may also receive your data indirectly from GoCardless and TeamUp when a service is purchased. This includes Name, Email address, Address and service purchased.

How do we use this data?

We use members’ personal information only as necessary for us to provide our services to you. We do not share any information with unrelated third parties (unless required by law) nor do we collect or retain any information other than is required for the provision of our products or services. Information collected during the online registration process is stored securely and will be securely destroyed if it is no longer required by Rudis Fitness. Members may request details of personal information, which we hold under the Data Protection Act 1998 and General Data Protection Regulation 2016 (GDPR). A small fee may be payable but is not usually charged, unless the request is manifestly unfounded or excessive; or an individual requests further copies of their data following a request. In these cases, a reasonable fee for the administration costs of complying with the request will be payable. Copies of this information can be obtained by writing to us at teamrudisfitness@gmail.com.
If you believe that any information we are holding on you is incorrect or incomplete, please write to or email us as soon as possible, at the above address. We will promptly correct any information found to be incorrect. We request all members check their details for accuracy annually and make any necessary changes. This includes re-completion of our waiver if any information has changed (e.g. address, phone number, medical conditions). We will email reminders for this. Please note in order to receive emails from us, you need to ‘opt in’ and complete an email verification to confirm your consent, in order for us to comply with legal requirements. We require this to allow us to communicate with members effectively.

The data we collect is necessary to process your order, manage your account and email you as part of our update service. When your order is processed by our payment provider, Go Cardless, it may send your data to (and also use the resulting information from) credit reference agencies in order to prevent fraudulent purchases.

 

How do we store your data?

 Rudis Fitness securely stores your data electronically.

Your data will be kept for a period of 1 year. Once this time period has expired, we will contact you to ask if you wish to remain on our database. If you ask to be removed, we will delete your data manually unless you have an ongoing service with us, in which case we will email you to ask to you review and update your details as outlined above. Data will be amended each year at the end of the Financial Year, or when document reviews are scheduled. 

Alternatively, you may email us at any time at TeamRudisFitness@gmail.com and ask us to delete your data.
