Privacy Policy

Pure Yoga Ottawa takes the issue of security and privacy seriously. We respect our visitors right to both their privacy and security of their data. To that end, we collect and use information throughout our website only as disclosed below.


Privacy Policy

Personally Identifiable Information:

Pure Yoga Ottawa collects personally identifiable information from you only with your knowledge and consent.

Pure Yoga Ottawa uses the services of two leading Software companies, Mind Body Online (www.mindbodyonline.com) and Moneris Solutions (www.moneris.com) for web scheduling, registration, order processing and online payments. Please visit their website to acquire information about the companies and their Privacy Policies.

When you make a purchase through MindBody Online, they ask for your name, address, phone number, email address and other personal information necessary to fulfill and track your order. For purposes of billing, you will need to provide your credit card type, number, expiration date and billing address for the card.

MindBody also requires you to create an account by providing your email address and designating a unique access password for future access to your account information. Creating this account allows MindBody to save your billing information so you won’t have to fill out that information again the next time you make a purchase on their site. For your privacy and security, credit card numbers are not stored in the MindBody system.

Pure Yoga Ottawa also collects your name and email address if you sign up for our email newsletter. (For more on how we handle this information, please click here.)

Non-Personally Identifiable Information

We collect non-personally identifiable information from you in order for us to better understand how our website is used. Information about a user’s visit is logged, however your IP address is never referenced to personally identifiable information. Usage statistics are gathered in a non-intrusive manner. The log files are private documents and are primarily used by the server administrator for error notification, server administration and to monitor website performance. Occasionally, portions of the log files may be viewed by others for the purpose of server administration, security or when required by law.


Cookies
