Privacy policy
Updated over a week ago

This Privacy Policy describes how Perifit collects, uses and discloses information, and what choices you have with respect to the information.

Updates in this version of the Privacy Policy reflect changes in data protection law. In addition, we have worked to make the Privacy Policy clearer and more understandable by:

  • Organizing it into sections,

  • Providing a series of examples that help illustrate how the policies may be implemented by Perifit and

  • Defining and capitalizing a few terms that are used more than once for simplicity and brevity.

When we refer to “ Perifit”, we mean the Perifit entity that acts as the controller and processor of your information.

This Privacy Policy applies to www.perifit.co and Perifit application (collectively, the “ Platforms”). If you do not agree with the terms, do not access or use the Platforms.

Any third party data processors are obliged to comply with this policy when processing personal data on our behalf. Any breach of this policy by that third party may result in disciplinary action being taken against them.
