Privacy Policy

Effective Date: December 1st, 2024

At Art of Kickboxing, we take your privacy seriously. This Privacy Policy outlines what personal information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it in accordance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA). By providing your personal information, you consent to its collection, use, and disclosure as described in this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect & Why

When you sign up for a membership, we collect only the following:

• Your Name
• Your Address
• Credit Card Information

This information is used solely to process recurring membership fees for the membership you have agreed to purchase along. Credit card information is stored securely by Square, our trusted third-party payment provider, to allow for recurring or future payments as needed. Square is PCI-DSS compliant, meaning it meets strict industry standards for secure handling of payment data. Your address may be used in the event of a medical emergency, unresolved account matters, or unpaid membership fees.

For one-time payments, such as personal training sessions, Square may temporarily store your payment information as necessary to complete the transaction and comply with their security and fraud prevention policies. Art of Kickboxing does not store or have direct access to your full credit card information.

When a student ends their membership, we request deletion of all their personal and payment information from the Square account, subject to their data retention policies. We do not share, use, retain, archive, or sell former member data.

Website Data

When you visit our website, basic technical information (such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited) may be collected automatically by your browser or third-party services. This collection is a default function of internet browsing and is not actively controlled or directly stored by Art of Kickboxing.

We do not share, sell, store, or use any technical data to track or profile individual visitors, and we do not have any intention to do so. The only exception is that we may access anonymous, aggregated insights through Google Search Console and Google Ads, such as:

• Clicks and impressions
• Country or region
• Device type
• General age range or gender

Please note that the collection and storage of this data is managed independently by Google under their own privacy policies and terms of service. Art of Kickboxing has no control over how Google collects, uses, or stores this information. This data does not identify you personally and is used solely to improve our website’s visibility, performance, and marketing effectiveness.

Your Rights & Data Protection

You have the right to request access to the personal information we hold about you, and to request corrections if that information is inaccurate. We use appropriate safeguards, including secure systems and encrypted third-party processors, to protect your data from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure.

If you have any questions about this policy or your personal information, please contact us:
