By visiting and using our website, you acknowledge and agree that we may share your Personal Information in these ways, consistent with the terms of this Privacy Policy.

 

D. STORAGE OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

 

You have the right to be informed about how your information is being stored.

While we strive to protect your Personal Information, we are not responsible should an unauthorized third party gain access to your information, without our consent.  In the event that BodySmarts.com is tampered with, your information may be inadvertently intercepted.  If we become aware that a data breach has occurred, we will notify the appropriate authorities within a timely manner.  You acknowledge and agree that we are not responsible for these actions and any damages that result from the unauthorized use of your Personal Information.  You expressly agree to hold us harmless from any and all claims which may arise from the unauthorized use of your Personal Information.

Please note, when you voluntarily give out your Personal Information online through our website or on our social media page, in a way that makes it viewable by others, whether through a comment on a blog, a posting on a message board, or by any other means, it can be viewed by the public and can potentially be collected and used by others.   You acknowledge and agree that we cannot guarantee the security of the information you share in this manner.  You expressly agree that you disclose such information at your own risk and you assume all responsibility for its unauthorized use.  

 

Because our core activities do not consist of processing operations which require regular and systematic processing of data subjects on a large scale, nor do we process sensitive data on a large scale, we have determined that Body Smarts, LLC is not required to appoint a Data Protection Officer.
