HOW WE COLLECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
We collect the personal information listed above from you through your signing up for our email newsletter, purchasing our products, using the ZOZOFIT App, or otherwise engaging with the ZOZOFIT Services.
We may combine personal information we receive from you with personal information that we obtain from other sources, such as:
- Partners, such as co-sponsorship opportunities
- Third-party services, such as social media services, that you use to log into, or otherwise link to, your Service account. This data may include your username, profile picture and other information associated with your account on that third-party service that is made available to us based on your account settings on that service.
We, our service providers, and our business partners may also automatically collect data about you, your computer or mobile device, or your interaction with us over time, such as:
- Device data, such as your computer or mobile device’s operating system type and version, manufacturer and model, browser type, screen resolution, RAM and disk size, CPU usage, device type (e.g., phone, tablet), IP address, unique identifiers (including identifiers used for advertising purposes), language settings, mobile device carrier, radio/network information (e.g., Wi-Fi, LTE, 3G), and general location information such as city, state or geographic area.
- Online activity data, such as pages or screens you viewed, how long you spent on a page or screen, the website you visited before browsing to the Service, navigation paths between pages or screens, information about your activity on a page or screen, access times and duration of access, and whether you have opened our emails or clicked links within them.
- Mobile app activity data, such as information about which apps you uninstall on your device, when you last accessed and used our app, and your reactions to our push notifications.
- Communication interaction data such as your interactions with our email, text or other communications (e.g., whether you open and/or forward emails) – we may do this through use of pixel tags (which are also known as clear GIFs), which may be embedded invisibly in our emails.
Some of the automatic collection described above is facilitated by the following technologies:
- Cookies, which are small text files that websites store on user devices and that allow web servers to record users’ web browsing activities and remember their submissions, preferences, and login status as they navigate a site. Cookies used on our sites include both “session cookies” that are deleted when a session ends, “persistent cookies” that remain longer, “first party” cookies that we place and “third party” cookies that our third-party business partners and service providers place.
- Local storage technologies, like HTML5, that provide cookie-equivalent functionality but can store larger amounts of data on your device outside of your browser in connection with specific applications.
- Software development kits (SDKs). An SDK is third-party computer code that we may incorporate into our app that may be used for a variety of purposes, including to provide us with analytics regarding the use of our app, to integrate with social media, or add features or functionality to our app. SDKs may enable third parties to collect information directly via our app.
- Web beacons, also known as pixel tags or clear GIFs, which are used to demonstrate that a webpage or email was accessed or opened, or that certain content was viewed or clicked.
HOW WE USE YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
We may use your personal information for the following purposes or as otherwise described at the time of collection:
- To provide ZOZOFIT Services to you, enable security features of the ZOZOFIT Service, communicate with you about the ZOZOFIT Service, and provide support for the ZOZOFIT Service.
- To analyze your usage of the ZOZOFIT Service, to improve the ZOZOFIT Service, improve the rest of our business, and help us understand user activity on the ZOZOFIT Service. For example, we use Google Analytics for this purpose. You can learn more about Google Analytics and how to prevent the use of Google Analytics relating to your use of our sites here: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout?hl=en.
- For marketing purposes. We and our service providers may collect and use your personal information for marketing purposes. For example, we may send you direct marketing communications and may personalize these messages based on your needs and interests.
- For interest-based advertising. We and our third-party advertising partners may use cookies and other technologies to collect information about your interaction (including the data described in the automatic data collection section above) with the Service, our communications and other online services over time, and use that information to serve online ads that they think will interest you. This is called interest-based advertising. We may also share information about our users with these companies to facilitate interest-based advertising to those or similar users on other online platforms.
- For our legitimate interests, such as to protect our, your, and others’ rights, privacy, safety or property; to audit our internal processes for compliance with legal and contractual requirements, or our internal policies; enforce the terms and conditions that govern the ZOZOFIT Services; and prevent, identify, investigate and deter fraudulent, harmful, unauthorized, unethical or illegal activity, including cyberattacks and identity theft.
- To comply with a legal obligation, lawful request, or other legal process.
- To create aggregated, de-identified, and/or anonymized data. We may create aggregated, de-identified and/or anonymized data from your personal information and other individuals whose personal information we collect. We make personal information into de-identified and/or anonymized data by removing information that makes the data identifiable to you, and we will not attempt to reidentify any such data. We may use this aggregated, de-identified and/or anonymized data and share it with third parties for our lawful business purposes, including to analyze and improve our services and promote our business.
- For further uses. In some cases, we may use your personal information for further uses, in which case we will ask for your consent to use of your personal information for those further purposes if they are not compatible with the initial purpose for which information was collected.

HOW WE RETAIN YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
We generally only retain your personal information as long as is necessary to fulfill the purposes for which we collected it. To determine the appropriate retention period for personal information, we may consider factors such as the amount, nature, and sensitivity of the personal information, the potential risk of harm from unauthorized use or disclosure of your personal information, the purposes for which we process your personal information and whether we can achieve those purposes through other means, and the applicable legal requirements.
When we no longer require the personal information we have collected about you, we may either delete it, anonymize it, or isolate it from further processing.
HOW WE PROTECT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION
We employ technical, administrative, and physical safeguards designed to protect the personal information we collect from accidental or unauthorized destruction, loss, alteration, disclosure, or access.

We may require a copy of a valid power of attorney given to your authorized agent pursuant to applicable law. If you have not provided your agent with such a power of attorney, we may ask you to take additional steps permitted by law to verify that your request is authorized, such as by providing your agent with written and signed permission to exercise your State Privacy Laws rights on your behalf, the information we request to verify your identity, and confirmation that you have given the authorized agent permission to submit the request.
