Please read this policy carefully to understand our views and practices regarding your personal data and how we will treat it. We may change this policy from time to time by updating this page. You should check this page from time to time to ensure that you are happy with any changes.

When we refer to “personal data” we mean any information about you which is personally identifiable like your name, address, car registration number, payment details, telephone number or e-mail address.

Any reference to “you” or “your“, means you as a user of our website at https://powerplate.co.za (“Website“).

This policy only applies to the collection of your personal data by us and the use of that personal data by us and those whom we authorise. It does not cover third party websites to which we provide links, nor does it cover advertisers. They may have their own privacy policies and/or terms and conditions of use.

You must make sure that you update details as soon as possible with any and all relevant changes.

COOKIES POLICY

Our Website uses cookies. In this section when we refer to a “cookie” we mean a small data file that is stored by your web browser on your computer or handheld device. Cookies contain a small amount of information that is transferred to your computer’s hard drive or storage media on the device used to access the Website. They help us to improve our Website and to deliver a better and more personalised service.

You can delete and block cookies using your browser, but parts of our Website will not work without them.

Cookies that are strictly necessary for the operation of the Website:

Some of the cookies we use are essential for parts of the Website to operate and are already set. These are strictly necessary for the sale of goods requested by you and without them the Website cannot operate as intended. As an example, we may use cookies to make use of e-billing services or to store facilities in an electronic shopping basket or wish list whilst browsing different pages of the Website or between visits to the Website.

Other uses of cookies (where you have consented to such use):

Where you consent to us doing so, we also use cookies and other such tracking techniques to compile anonymous, aggregated statistics that allow us to understand how users use our Website and to help us improve the structure of our Website (we cannot identify you personally in this way). We use cookies and other tracking techniques to allow us to understand who has seen which pages and advertisements on the Website, to determine how frequently particular pages and advertisement are viewed, to determine the most popular areas of the Website and generally in order to monitor usage of the Website.

We use traffic log cookies to identify which pages are being used. This helps us analyse data about web page traffic and improve our Website in order to tailor it to customer needs. We only use this information for statistical analysis purposes and then the data is removed from our system.

Where you consent to us doing so, we may also use cookies and other tracking techniques to:

  • allow you to carry information across pages of our Website and avoid having to re-enter information;
  • within registration to allow you to access stored information;
  • help us recognise you as a unique visitor when you return to our Website and to allow us to tailor content or advertisements to match your preferred interests or to avoid showing you the same adverts repeatedly;
  • help us to personalise our content for you, respond to you as an individual, greet you by name, tailor our operations to your needs, likes and dislikes by gathering and remembering your preferences (for example, your last purchase);
  • speed up searches; and/or
  • within research surveys to ensure you are not invited to complete a questionnaire too often or after you have already done so.

Other cookies outside of our control:

We may use external services such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Vimeo or Instagram, to display certain content on our Website. We cannot prevent such websites from collecting information about your usage of their services on our Website, for example, number of plays of a video.

Like many other organisations, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google, Inc. Google Analytics sets a number of cookies in order to evaluate your use of our Website and enable us to carry out actions including (but not limited to):

  • Tracking the number of visitors to our Website.
  • Monitoring the number of users on our Website at any given time.
  • Analysing popular content on our Website.

Google stores the information collected by these cookies on servers in the United States. Google may also transfer this information to third parties where required to do so by law, or where such third parties process the information on Google’s behalf. Google will not associate your IP address with any other data held by Google. By using our Website, you consent to the processing of data about you by Google in the manner and for the purposes set out above.

WHAT INFORMATION DO WE SHARE WITH OTHERS?

We may disclose your personal data to any member of our group, as defined in section 1159 of the Companies Act 2006.

We may pass your information (including personal data) to other parties as follows:

  • in the event that we sell or buy any business or assets, in which case we may disclose your personal data to the prospective seller or buyer of such business or assets. We will use our reasonable endeavours to inform you of this before the transfer occurs. If you are unhappy with the transfer you may contact us to end a contract and we will refund you any payments you have made in advance for facilities not provided;
  • if Performance Health Systems UK Ltd or substantially all of its assets are acquired by a third party, in which case personal data held by us about our customers will be one of the transferred assets. We will use our reasonable endeavours to inform you of this before the transfer occurs. If you are unhappy with the transfer you may contact us to end the contract and we will refund you any payments you have made in advance for facilities not provided;
  • we may pass your personal data to our employees and agents to administer the goods and services provided to you by us now or in the future. For example, we may pass your personal data to our suppliers in order for them to provide you with goods;
  • some general statistical information about the Website user base, sales patterns, traffic volumes and related matters may be passed on to reputable third parties (such as our suppliers or advertisers) but these details will not include information personally identifying you;
  • to check against the Interactive Media Retail Group Security Alert or any Fraud Prevention Scheme. We may also share information with companies assisting in fraud protection or investigation. We do not provide information to these agencies or companies for marketing or commercial purposes; and
  • to the police, regulatory bodies or legal advisers in connection with any alleged criminal offence or suspected breach of our terms and conditions relating to you or otherwise where required by law and we will co-operate with any law enforcement authorities, government request or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of or locate anyone breaching our terms and conditions or otherwise for the prevention or detection of crime or the apprehension or prosecution of offenders.

Where we provide your personal data to our suppliers and other companies to assist us in providing our goods and services, we provide these companies with only the information they need to perform their work closely with them to ensure that your privacy is respected and protected. These companies are prohibited by contract from using this information for their own marketing purposes or from sharing this information with anyone other than us.

We do not disclose information about identifiable individuals to our advertisers, but we may provide them with aggregated information about our users (for example, we may inform them that 500 men aged under 30 have clicked on their advertisement on any given day). We may also use such aggregated information to help advertisers reach the kind of audience they want to target. We may make use of the personal data we have collected from you to enable us to comply with our advertisers’ wishes by displaying their advertisement to that target audience. We do not pass or sell your personal information to third persons for any other purpose than those set out above. Any marketing referred to in the section entitled “How do we use information about you?” is conducted by us on behalf of third parties, and they do not have any access to your data unless you yourself choose to contact them.

Other than as stated above, we will not sell, distribute or lease your personal information to third parties unless we have your permission or are required by law to do so.

Security/how do we protect your information?

We endeavour to take all reasonable steps to protect your personal data. Where possible we use industry-standard Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology to allow for the encryption of:

  • potentially sensitive information such as your name and address; and
  • critically-sensitive information like your credit card number.

Unfortunately, the transmission of information via the internet is not completely secure. Although we will do our best to protect your personal data, we cannot guarantee the security of your data transmitted to our Website; any transmission is at your own risk. Once we have received your information, we will use strict procedures and security features to try to prevent unauthorised access.

CHANGES TO OUR PRIVACY POLICY

Please note that we may update and amend the privacy policy from time to time and any changes will be posted on this page and, where appropriate, notified to you by email.

INCORRECT/INCOMPLETE INFORMATION

If you believe that any information we are holding on you is incorrect or incomplete, please contact us as soon as possible. We will promptly correct any information found to be incorrect.
