This Privacy Statement of YMCA of Metropolitan Detroit (“YMCA of Metropolitan Detroit,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) describes its policy for treatment of personal information (as defined below) on www.ymcadetroit.org, www.gotrdetroit.org, and www.ydetroitacademy.org (individually and collectively, the “Site”). This Privacy Statement applies only to the Site, and it applies to the Site regardless of the platform on which it is used. “You” in this Privacy Statement means you personally. If you visit other sites operated by YMCA of Metropolitan Detroit or other sites linked to the Site, the privacy policy for the Site will not control the practices for collecting and using personal information on those other sites. Additionally, this Privacy Statement does not apply to YMCA of Metropolitan Detroit’s practices for collecting and using personal information offline or from sites or apps other than the Site (even if that information is identical to the information gathered on the Site).

What is “personal information” and what personal information do we collect?

By “personal information,” we mean information that is reasonably identifiable to you or to a particular device.

Personal Information We may Collect.

Personal information that we collect includes information that you provide voluntarily. Personal information requested might include, for example, your name, e-mail address, and phone number. NOTE: We may collect certain information from you, including membership information, using third-party sites not controlled by us. For example, we may collect membership information from you using ACTIVE Network. Account information you provide to us, including credit card information, is collected, stored, and maintained by ACTIVE Network, and is subject to ACTIVE Network’s privacy policy, available at http://www.activenetwork.com/information/privacy-policy. No purchases are made on the Site, and the Site does not collect your payment or billing information. This Privacy Statement does not govern the collection, storage, or use of your information by any third-party websites to which the Site links, including ACTIVE Network. Please review the privacy policies of each third-party website to understand how they treat your information.

Navigational Information.

When you visit the Site, we may capture certain information automatically (even if you do not voluntarily provide us with personal information, or in addition to personal information that you do provide). This information may include your Internet protocol address, location-based information, browser type, time and date of access and pages accessed, linking information, click stream, page visits, page views, and website log files. If such navigational information is reasonably identifiable to you or is reasonably identifiable to a particular device, it will be deemed personal information for purposes of this Privacy Statement. We reserve the right to match non-personal navigational information with other information that we have collected from you. If that other information renders such navigational information reasonably identifiable to you or a particular device, then by definition it will become personal information. Navigational information that is deemed personal information under this paragraph will be treated as such pursuant to this Privacy Statement.

Please note that we may collect information using a third-party web analytics tool such as Google Analytics (http://www.google.com/analytics/index.html) that aggregates data so that it is not identifiable to any particular individual or device. As of the Effective Date of this Privacy Statement, Google Analytics represents that it does not collect any personal information, as it explains at https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/gajs/cookie-usage. However, Google Analytics may use cookies to collect information related to your use of the Site. You may be able to instruct your browser not to send information to Google Analytics by installing a browser add-on. For more information please visit https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.

Personal Information and the YMCA Detroit mobile app

Our app offers fitness challenges which users can join and integrates with Google’s Health Connect to collect user’s calories burned, distance walked/ran and steps climbed.

Our app will analyze the daily exercise data of users in Health Connect to calculate their progress and determine whether they have completed a fitness challenge. The challenge includes the distance covered, the number of steps taken, and the total calories burned by the user. Users can receive these challenges on the homepage, and when they accept a challenge, a prompt will appear requesting authorization to access Health Connect. We will request permission for Distance Record, Steps Record, and Total Calories Burned Record in minimum scope to fulfill the functionality of our app. Once we obtain this data, we will display the corresponding exercise data and progress in the app, as well as update the server’s progress. When the user’s exercise meets the target value of the challenge, we will indicate that the challenge has been completed.

The use of information received from Health Connect will adhere to the Health Connect Permissions policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
