Privacy Policy

Effective: Last updated:

Introduction

Welcome to The Body (“we,” “our,” or “us”), a fitness and wellness platform offering on-demand strength, Pilates, mobility and recovery, and mindful movement classes, and workouts that fitness and wellness instructor Daniela Masís prepares for the people she coaches. We are committed to protecting your privacy and the security of your personal information.

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share and safeguard your information when you use our services: the website and web portal at teamthebody.com and The Body apps for iOS and Android (together, the “Services”).

By using the Services, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If you do not agree with it, please do not use the Services.

Who Is Responsible for Your Data

The Services are published by Carlos Porras, an individual based in Costa Rica, together with Daniela Masís, the fitness and wellness instructor who creates the classes and coaches members. Carlos Porras is the controller of the personal information described in this Privacy Policy: he decides how it is used and is responsible for protecting it. Daniela Masís and other authorised members of The Body team use it only to provide the Services, as described below.

For any privacy question or request, contact us at contact@teamthebody.com.

Information We Collect

We collect information you provide directly to us, as well as information about your use of the Services. The types of information we collect include:

Personal Information

Contact and Profile Information:

  • First and last name
  • Email address, and whether you have confirmed it
  • Date of birth (optional)
  • Profile photo (optional)
  • Preferred language (English or Spanish)
  • Your time zone, so dates such as your workout days follow your own calendar

Health and Fitness Information (optional):

  • Health conditions relevant to your training
  • Physical activity level and exercise habits
  • Activity frequency and types of physical activities
  • Experience level
  • Available equipment for workouts
  • Personal fitness goals
  • Additional notes about your training preferences

Account Information

  • Account credentials (passwords are stored only as secure hashes)
  • Subscription status and history
  • Payment method (processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play; we never see your card details)

Coaching and Workouts (only if Daniela coaches you)

If Daniela coaches you personally, or invites you to one of her coaching programs, we also keep:

  • Your invitation (the email address it was sent to and whether you accepted it) and your access: which program you are in, your start and end dates, and whether your access is active, paused or ended
  • The workout plan Daniela prepares for you, her notes to you and her replies
  • Your workout data and your consent decisions, described in Workout Data and Health Information below

Content You Post

  • Comments you post on classes. Comments are public to other members, shown with your name and profile photo.

Usage Information

  • Classes you watch, your progress and time watched in each class
  • Sign-in activity, such as when your sessions were created or renewed

Technical Information

  • IP address and basic request information, used to keep the Services secure (for example, to limit repeated sign-in attempts)
  • Device identifiers (for purchase validation in the apps)
  • Device type, browser or operating system, and app version

Workout Data and Health Information

The Workouts section is where the people Daniela coaches follow the plan she prepares, watch the demo videos and tell her how training went. Some of what you record there can be health information, so we treat all of it with extra care.

What We Save

  • Your workout log: the exercises and sets you mark as done, the repetitions, weight or time you record, exercises you skip or swap for the easier option, and workouts you finish or skip, with the reason you choose (for example “No time” or “Not feeling well”).
  • Your check-ins: how a workout felt, how hard it was, the wellbeing tags you choose (such as “Slept poorly” or “Low energy”), whether you felt any discomfort, and your notes for Daniela, including notes you add when you ask for a change to an exercise.
  • Items for Daniela to review: when you report discomfort, change an exercise because of discomfort, or skip a workout because you are not feeling well, we flag it so Daniela sees it. She may also get an email that says only that a client left feedback, with no details.
  • Daniela’s replies to your workouts and check-ins, and when you saw them.
  • Your decisions: whether you agreed to us saving this information, which version of the text you agreed to, when, and on which platform; and your confirmation that you are 18 or older.

Why We Save It, and Your Consent

We use your workout data only to provide your coaching: so you can follow your progress and see your history, and so Daniela can adjust your plan and answer you. We save it only with your explicit consent, which you give in the Workouts privacy step by choosing “I agree” and confirming that you are 18 or older. If you choose “Not now,” you can still see your plan and the demo videos, but nothing about how your workouts went is saved. You can agree later at any time.

Workouts and coaching are for adults only. We do not knowingly save workout data of anyone under 18.

Who Can See It

Only you, Daniela and authorised members of The Body team can see your workout data. Other members never see it. We do not sell it, and we never use it for advertising, marketing or analytics. Our emails and our service providers’ logs never contain your check-ins, notes or other workout details. We keep a record of which members of the team opened your workout details, and when.

Not Medical Care, and Not Monitored in Real Time

Workouts are fitness coaching, not medical care, and your workout log is not a medical record. Daniela reads what you send, but not in real time. In an emergency, call your local emergency number (911 in Costa Rica and the US). Check with a healthcare professional before starting or changing your exercise.

Seeing, Deleting and Withdrawing

  • You can read your workout history at any time in Workouts, including after a program ends.
  • You can withdraw your consent at any time in Privacy & workout data (in Workouts on the website, and in the apps where Workouts is available). We then stop saving how your workouts go. What was already saved stays until you delete it, but while your consent is withdrawn Daniela and the team no longer see how you felt, how hard it was, your wellbeing tags, any discomfort you reported, your notes, or your reasons for skipping or changing a workout or an exercise. They may still see which workouts and exercises you completed, skipped or changed, and that an item is waiting for review, without its details.
  • You can delete your workout history at any time in the same place. This permanently deletes your workout log, check-ins, notes, items to review and Daniela’s replies to them. The plan Daniela prepared for you stays. We keep a record that a deletion took place, without any of its content.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

Provide and Maintain the Services

  • Create and manage your account, and confirm your email address
  • Process your subscription and verify your access to premium content
  • Stream classes to you and remember where you left off
  • Show your comments to other members
  • Give the people Daniela coaches their workouts, demo videos, history and her replies, and let her prepare and adjust their plans

  • Provide the Services and our emails in your preferred language (English or Spanish)

How We Share Your Information

We do not sell, trade, or rent your personal information to third parties. We share it only in the following circumstances:

Service Providers

We work with service providers who process information on our behalf to run the Services:

  • Microsoft Azure: hosting of the Services and their database (including workout data), storage of profile photos, and technical logs, which never contain workout details.
  • Brevo: delivery of our transactional emails (your name, email address and preferred language). Emails never contain your workout details.
  • BunnyStream (bunny.net): video delivery, including workout demo videos. It receives your IP address, device and player information, and what you watch, in order to stream videos. It receives no workout data.
  • RevenueCat: subscription management. It receives your purchase data and a random billing identifier created only for this purpose (not your name), plus your email address as an attribute so we can find your purchases when you contact support. RevenueCat may collect device identifiers for purchase validation. It receives no workout data.
  • Apple App Store and Google Play: app distribution and payment processing for subscriptions.

Other Members

Comments you post on classes are visible to other members, together with your name and profile photo. Your workout data is never shown to other members.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose your information if required to do so by law or in response to valid requests by public authorities (e.g., court orders or government agencies).

Business Transfers

If we are involved in a merger, acquisition, or asset sale, your personal information may be transferred. We will provide notice before your personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different Privacy Policy.

Cookies and Local Storage

The website uses only what it needs to work. We do not use advertising or analytics cookies, and we do not track you across other websites or apps.

Strictly Necessary Cookies (website)

  • the-body-auth-token: keeps you signed in. Expires after 1 hour and is renewed automatically while your session is active.
  • the-body-refresh-token: renews your sign-in so you stay signed in for up to 30 days. Sent only to our sign-in endpoints.
  • the-body-session: tells the website you are signed in on this browser, so it can open your classes without asking you to sign in again. Contains no personal information. Expires after 30 days.

These cookies cannot be read by scripts on the page and are deleted when you log out.

Preference Cookie (website)

  • the-body-language: remembers the language you chose (English or Spanish), so pages open in it. Set only when you pick a language, open a link in a specific language, or sign in to an account that uses one. Contains no personal information. Expires after 1 year.

Local Storage (website)

  • the-body-language: also remembers the language you chose. It stays in your browser until you clear your site data.
  • A few display settings, such as whether your workout calendar shows a week or a month, and the time zone last sent for your account, so it is sent again only when it changes. They contain no workout details, and stay in your browser until you clear your site data.

On-Device Storage (apps)

The iOS and Android apps keep your sign-in tokens and language choice in your device’s secure storage (the iOS Keychain or Android Keystore). Sign-in tokens are removed when you log out.

Data Security

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include:

  • Encryption of data in transit and at rest
  • Secure password hashing using BCrypt
  • Short-lived, single-use links for password resets and email confirmation
  • Role-based access controls
  • Records of which members of the team view workout details, and when
  • Secure hosting infrastructure

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention and Deletion

We keep your personal information for as long as your account is active, or as needed to provide the Services. Your workout data is kept while your account exists, including after a program or your coaching ends, unless you delete it sooner (see Workout Data and Health Information). Records of who viewed or changed your workout data, and of a workout history being deleted, contain no workout details and are kept for 2 years.

You can delete your account at any time in the app, on the web, or by emailing us; see Delete your account. When you delete your account, we delete your account and profile (name, email and date of birth), profile photo, health and fitness profile, comments, watch history and progress, program memberships, workout plans, workout log, check-ins and workout history, the records about you described above, and sign-in sessions on every device. We also delete your customer record at RevenueCat. Emailed deletion requests are completed within 30 days.

Some information may be kept after deletion:

  • Purchase records that Apple and Google keep under their own policies. Deleting your account does not cancel a subscription; cancel it in the App Store or Google Play.
  • Copies in our encrypted backups, for up to 35 days until they are overwritten.
  • Information we are legally required to keep, and only for as long as required.

Your Rights and Choices
