If you are a parent or guardian of a child under 18 years of age and you believe your child has provided us with Personal Information, please contact us at hello@wellfitly.com.
Do Not Track Although some browsers currently offer a “do not track (‘DNT’) option,” no common industry standard for DNT exists. We therefore do not currently commit to responding to browsers’ DNT signals.
Your California Privacy Rights Under certain circumstances, California Civil Code Section 1798.83 states that, upon receipt of a request by a California customer, a business may be required to provide information regarding how that business has shared personal information of customers with third parties for direct marketing purposes. However, the foregoing does not apply to businesses like ours that do not disclose personal information to third parties for direct marketing purposes.
Your Rights and Obligations We ask that you keep the Personal Data that you provide to us current and that you correct any information you have provided us by contacting us at hello@wellfitly.com. You represent and warrant that all Personal Data you provide us is true and correct and relates to you and not to any other person.
