Privacy Policy

We take your data seriously - no corporate nonsense, just straight talk about how we handle your info

Last Updated: October 28, 2025

The Real Deal on Your Privacy

Look, we get it - privacy policies are usually a drag to read. But here's the thing: we're not some massive corporate chain that treats you like a number. At RuneShroud Verse, you're training alongside us, and that means we respect your personal space both in the gym and online.

This policy breaks down what we collect, why we need it, and what we do with it. We've tried to keep the legal jargon to a minimum 'cause honestly, who has time for that? If something doesn't make sense, just shoot us a message - we're happy to explain.

When you join our warrior community, we need some basic stuff to get you started and keep things running smoothly. Here's what we're talking about:

Personal Details
  • Contact Info: Name, email, phone number - y'know, so we can actually reach you about your training sessions or if there's a schedule change
  • Address: Just for billing and maybe sending you your warrior certificate when you complete programs
  • Emergency Contact: Look, we train hard here. If something happens, we need to know who to call
Health & Fitness Data
  • Medical History: Any injuries, conditions, or limitations we should know about. We're not doctors, but we need to keep you safe during training
  • Fitness Assessments: Your starting point, progress measurements, and performance tracking. This helps us see how far you've come
  • Training Preferences: What you're working toward, any specific goals, that kind of thing
Payment Information
  • Billing Details: We don't actually store your full credit card info - that goes through our secure payment processor. We just keep transaction records
  • Membership Status: What package you're on, when it renews, payment history
Website & App Usage
  • Login Credentials: Username and encrypted password for your member portal
  • Activity Logs: Which classes you book, when you check in, program resources you access
  • Technical Data: IP address, browser type, device info - standard web stuff that helps us fix issues and improve the site

We're not selling your data to random companies or spamming you with nonsense. Everything we collect has a purpose:

Running Your Membership

This is the main thing - managing your account, processing payments, booking your classes, and keeping track of your training program. Pretty straightforward.

Keeping You Safe

Your health info helps our coaches modify exercises when needed and make sure we're not pushing you into something your body isn't ready for yet. Safety first, always.

Communication That Actually Matters

We'll email or text you about class schedules, program updates, facility closures, or special warrior events. We're not gonna flood your inbox with daily spam - ain't nobody got time for that.

Making Things Better

We look at overall trends (not individual data) to figure out what's working and what needs tweaking. Like if everyone's loving the Rune Circuit but nobody's showing up for early morning sessions, we'll adjust.

Legal Stuff

Sometimes we're legally required to keep records - tax purposes, liability waivers, that kind of thing. It's boring but necessary.

Optional Marketing

Occasionally we might tell you about new programs or special offers, but you can opt out of that anytime. One click and you're done.

We're pretty protective of your info. We don't sell it, rent it, or hand it out like candy. But there are a few situations where we need to share limited data:

Service Providers
  • Payment Processors: Gotta process those membership fees somehow. They're PCI-compliant and secure
  • Email Platform: We use a service to send out newsletters and updates. They don't use your email for anything else
  • Scheduling Software: Helps manage class bookings and staff schedules
  • Cloud Storage: We backup data securely in case our systems crash
Emergency Situations

If you get hurt during training (hope not!), we might need to share relevant health info with paramedics or your emergency contact. Just common sense stuff to keep you safe.

Legal Requirements

If we're legally obligated by Canadian law or a valid court order, we'll comply. But we'll let you know unless we're legally prevented from doing so.

Business Transfers

If we ever sell the gym or merge with another facility (not planning on it, but you never know), your membership data would transfer to the new owners. You'd be notified well in advance.

What we DON'T do: We don't sell your data to advertisers, we don't share it with random third parties, and we don't use it for anything sketchy. Period.

Yeah, we use cookies - but not the delicious kind (though we wish). These are small files that help our website work better and remember your preferences.

Essential Cookies

These keep you logged in, remember what's in your booking cart, and basically make the site function. You can't really turn these off if you wanna use the member portal.

Performance Cookies

Help us see which pages get the most traffic, where people are getting stuck, and what needs fixing. All anonymous data - we're not tracking you individually.

Preference Cookies

Remember your settings like language choice or which location you prefer. Makes your experience smoother next time you visit.

Analytics

We use basic analytics to understand website traffic patterns. Helps us know if our content's actually useful or if we need to rethink things.

Your Control: Most browsers let you block or delete cookies. Just know that some features might not work properly if you do. You can usually find cookie settings in your browser preferences.

Under Canadian privacy law (PIPEDA), you've got some solid rights when it comes to your personal data. Here's what you can do:

Access Your Data

Wanna see what we've got on file about you? Just ask. We'll send you a copy of your personal information within 30 days (usually way faster).

Correct Your Information

If something's wrong or outdated, let us know and we'll fix it ASAP. You can update most stuff yourself in the member portal.

Delete Your Data

Want out? We'll delete your account and personal info. Just keep in mind we might need to keep some records for legal or financial reasons (like tax records), but we'll delete everything we're legally allowed to.

Opt Out of Marketing

There's an unsubscribe link in every marketing email. Click it once and you're done - no hard feelings.

Withdraw Consent

If you gave us permission to use your data for something specific (like testimonials or photos), you can take that back anytime. We'll stop using it immediately.

File a Complaint

If you think we've mishandled your data, you can complain to us first and we'll try to make it right. If you're not satisfied, you can reach out to the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.

How to Exercise These Rights: Just email us at info@runeshroudverse.info or stop by the front desk. We'll help you out, no hassle.

We take security seriously - maybe not Viking-fortress-level serious, but pretty darn close. Here's what we do to keep your info safe:

Technical Safeguards
  • Encryption: Your data's encrypted both when it's moving around and when it's sitting in our database
  • Secure Servers: We use reputable hosting with firewalls, intrusion detection, and regular security updates
  • Access Controls: Only authorized staff can access member data, and they only see what they need for their job
  • Regular Backups: We backup everything regularly so your data doesn't disappear if something goes wrong
Physical Security

Our office computers are password-protected, and paper records (we don't have many) are locked up. Can't have someone wandering in and snooping through files.

Staff Training

Everyone on our team knows the privacy rules and signs confidentiality agreements. We're not perfect, but we're all on the same page about keeping your info safe.

Your Part

Keep your login credentials private. Don't share your password, and if you think someone got into your account, change it immediately and let us know.

Breach Notification: If we ever have a data breach that puts your info at risk, we'll let you know ASAP and tell you what happened and what we're doing about it. Transparency matters.

We don't keep your data forever - that'd be weird and unnecessary. Here's our approach:

Active Members

As long as you're training with us, we keep your membership and training data current. Makes sense, right?

Former Members

After you cancel, we'll keep basic records for about 7 years (mostly for tax and legal reasons). Your detailed training logs and preferences get deleted after 2 years since you probably won't need 'em.

Financial Records

Tax law requires us to keep financial records for 7 years. After that, they're gone.

Marketing Lists

If you're on our email list but never became a member, we'll keep you on there unless you unsubscribe or haven't engaged with us in over 3 years.

Bottom line: we keep what we need for as long as we need it, then it's deleted. Simple as that.

We do offer youth warrior programs for teens (ages 13-17), but with special considerations:

Parental Consent

Anyone under 18 needs a parent or guardian to sign up and consent to our terms. No exceptions.

Limited Data Collection

For minors, we only collect what's absolutely necessary - basic contact info, emergency contacts, and relevant health information. That's it.

Parent Access

Parents can access, review, or request deletion of their child's information anytime. Just reach out to us.

No Marketing to Minors

We don't send marketing emails directly to anyone under 18. All communication goes through the parent or guardian.

We sometimes take photos or videos during classes for social media, marketing, or just to celebrate your progress. Here's how we handle that:

Your Choice

When you sign up, we ask if you're cool with being photographed. If you're not, we'll make sure you're not in any promotional shots. Just let us know.

Opt-Out Anytime

Changed your mind? No worries. Tell us and we'll stop using your images going forward and remove existing ones from our active marketing materials.

Group Shots

Sometimes we take wide shots of classes in action. If you don't wanna be in those, just position yourself out of frame or let the coach know beforehand.

Your Own Posts

Feel free to take pics and tag us on social media! We love seeing your warrior journey. Just be respectful of other members' privacy.
