You may withdraw your consent at any time, however we may not be able to continue to provide you with our services or access to our website.

What personal information do we collect from you?

We may collect personal information directly from you:

  • when you provide business cards or other documentation to us containing such personal information, including when you complete a Membership Agreement and a Health Questionnaire;

  • in the course of providing our products and services to you;

  • when you communicate or interact with us, whether in person, by email, telephone or otherwise; and

  • through your use of olympicgym.co.nz(our website).

The types of personal information generally collected by us may include:

  • your name, address, date of birth, mobile and telephone numbers and e-mail address;

  • your credit card or bank account details;

  • your occupation and your employer;

  • information about your health that is necessary to properly advise you about fitness training; and

  • information collected by our CCTV cameras when you access our premises.

  • using, disclosing, and storing that personal information in accordance with this Privacy Policy to the extent required by us to provide you with this functionality.

How does Olympic Gym use my personal information?

We may use your personal information:

  • to identify you, so we can give you access to our services and to ensure that your account is secure;

  • to communicate with you;

  • to inform you about our new products and services or any changes to existing products and services, or for any other marketing and promotional purposes;

  • to answer your questions and deal with any issues regarding our products and services;

  • to carry out our business, which includes maintaining your account, planning, training, product development, research and analysis;

  • to comply with applicable laws and regulations; or

  • for any related purpose in connection with the above.

We may use any information that we collect from you that is not personal information
(so no individual can be personally identified from it) for our business purposes, including:

  • to assess how our customers use our products and services;

  • to improve our products and services; and

  • for marketing and promotional purposes.

Does Olympic Gym share my personal information with anyone else?

Olympic Gym will disclose your personal information in a few different ways.

Like most businesses, sometimes we outsource or “contract out” specific support services from time to time, and this may mean that our contractors see your personal information. For instance, sometimes we may engage IT contractors to maintain our databases. All our contractors are subject to strict confidentiality obligations, which means that they are authorised only to use personal information to provide the services or to perform the functions required by us.

We may also disclose your personal information to:

  • Government departments or law enforcement agencies (including the Police);

  • liquidators, administrators or other persons appointed to administer your financial affairs; and

  • debt collection services or credit reporting agencies.

Otherwise, we will only disclose personal information with the consent of the relevant individuals or if it is necessary for the purpose for which you gave us the information.

For example, if you are a member, with your consent (and only with your consent) we may provide personal information to Olympic Gym personal trainers to assist you to improve your fitness and wellbeing, and so they can advise you which fitness programs are suitable for you. If personal trainers are contractors (rather than employees), their contracts with us require them to keep your personal information confidential. Of course, all our employees are required to keep your personal information confidential also.
