Cookie Policy
This Cookie Policy (the "Cookie Policy") is intended to inform visitors to our websites and users of our products or services how ABC Fitness Solutions, LLC and its affiliate companies, which include TSR Gym Technik Ltd. (Trainerize) (collectively, “ABC Fitness,” “we,” “our” or “us”) uses Cookies and related technologies (pixel, tags or beacons) (all singularly referred to as a “Cookie” or together “Cookies”), on our websites, which includes the resources.trainerize.com website.
Please take a minute to read and understand this Cookie Policy. This Cookie Policy should also be read in conjunction with our Privacy Policy for the platform or website you are visiting.
1. What are Cookies?
A cookie is a very small text document stored on your computer/other device (and maintained by your browser), and often includes a randomized unique identifier so that our website can 'recognize' this cookie again. They guarantee websites' function or improve the browsing, and also supply certain information to the owners of these websites, in particular in terms of audience measurement. All of the Cookies we use are listed in the table at the end of this document.
Tracking pixels, also known as web beacons, are 1x1, transparent images embedded in a website, email, or ad, and which contain a link to an external server. When someone interacts with an email, navigates to a website, or views an ad, their browser downloads the invisible image file. That action triggers a request from the pixel server, providing the server owner with knowledge of who downloaded the pixel as well as information like the operating system used, the type of browser used, the time the pixel was interacted with, the IP address, and more.
Tags, or identifiers, are keywords used to describe an element on the page of our websites and all its attributes. They are small segments of code that execute when loading a website. Typically, they will be HTML or JavaScript that describe an element or function on our Websites. We use several different tags and pixels, including those provided by social media platforms like Meta.
We refer to all of the technologies referenced above as Cookies. Cookies do not cause any damage to your device, known as the terminal, but make it easier, for example, to find preferences, pre-fill certain fields and adapt the content of the services on the site visited. Such data allows the improvement of ergonomics and services according to your interests.
2. What types of Cookies are there?
Generally-speaking, we use 1st and 3rd-party session and persistent Cookies. The Cookies set by us are called "1st-party” Cookies and the Cookies set by our third-party partners and service providers are called "3rd-party” Cookies.
Session Cookies are temporary Cookies that remain on your device until you close your web browser. Many session Cookies are essential to make our Websites work correctly, as they typically enable you to move around our website and use our features.
Persistent Cookies remain on your device after you close your browser or until you manually delete it (for the former, how long the cookie remains on your device will depend on the duration or "lifetime" of the specific cookie and your browser settings). Persistent Cookies help us recognize you as an existing user of our websites, so it's easier and convenient to return to our websites or interact with our platforms without signing in again. In addition, persistent Cookies also help us recognize you when you view a resource belonging to our websites from another website or app (such as an advertisement) and help us record information about your web browsing habits during the lifetime of the persistent cookie.
