1. Introduction

Welcome! You have arrived at a website operated by Ghost LLC or our affiliates (“Ghost,” “we”, “our” or “us”). Ghost at its simplest form is the world's first lifestyle sports nutrition brand. The name GHOST® and mantra "be seen" come from that feeling of being behind the scenes and wanting to be heard, wanting to make an impact; we're all ghosts. This is our time.

 

At Ghost, we take your privacy very seriously. This Privacy Notice (“Notice”) describes the types of personal information (as defined below) that we collect, how we use it, how and when we share it, and the rights you have with respect to your information. It also explains how we communicate with you and how you can make inquiries and requests to us about your information. We strive to help you understand how we use your information to improve our products, services, marketing, and interactions with you, as part of our commitment to maintaining your trust.

 

2. Scope

This Notice applies when you use or access the website, www.ghostlifestyle.com and its subdomains or portals (the “Site”); our mobile application (“App”); or otherwise provide Personal Information or interact with us online or in-person. For the purpose of this Notice, "Personal Information" means any personal information relating to an identified or identifiable individual that is protected by applicable privacy laws. We refer to all of the above as “Services.” Our Services are used by our customers and fans (“Fans”), individuals who visit our Site (“Site Visitors”) and individuals applying for employment with Ghost (“Employment Applicants”). By using the Services, you agree to our Terms of Service.

 

Where applicable, we indicate whether and why you must provide us with your Personal Information, as well as the consequences of failing to do so. If you do not provide Personal Information when requested, you may not be able to benefit from our Services if that Personal Information is necessary to provide you with the Services or if we are legally required to collect it.

 

If you have any questions about this Privacy Notice, please contact us using the information in the Contact Us section below.

    The Site or App may include functionality that allows certain kinds of interactions between the Site or App and your account on a third-party website or application. The use of this functionality may involve the third-party site providing information to us. For example, we might obtain information about the traffic and usage of Ghost from third parties. We might also provide links to facilitate sending a communication from the Site or App, or we may use third parties to facilitate emails or postings to social media (like a “Share” or “Forward” button). These third parties also use cookies and other tracking technologies to capture information about your interactions with Ghost. Ghost does not have control over the information that is collected, used, and shared by these third parties. We encourage you to review the privacy statements of these third parties to understand their privacy practices.

    5. Use of Cookies

    We use cookies (a small text file sent by your computer each time you visit our site) and other tracking technologies to personalize your experience, analyze user trends, and improve the Services. These tracking technologies allow us to collect information such as your device type, browser type, interactions with our Site or App, geographic location, your web request, the date and time of your web request, your Internet Protocol address, the domain name of your Internet service provider and other data. If you can be identified from this information, for example by combination with other pieces of information, then we will treat this information as Personal Information.

     

    Many browsers default to accepting cookies. You may be able to change this setting in your browser and you can also clear your cookies. If you do, you may lose some functionality of our site. Check your browser’s help function to learn more about your cookie setting options.

     

    We may use the following types of cookies:

    • Strictly necessary cookies. These cookies are essential for you to browse the website and use its features, such as accessing secure areas of the site. Cookies that allow web shops to hold your items in your cart while you are shopping online are an example of strictly necessary cookies. While it is not required to obtain consent for these cookies, what they do and why they are necessary should be explained to the user.

    • Functionality cookies. Also known as “preference cookies,” these cookies allow a website to remember choices you have made in the past, like what language you prefer, what region you would like weather reports for, or what your user name and password are so you can automatically log in.

    • Analytics cookies. Also known as “performance cookies,” these cookies collect information about how you use a website, like which pages you visited and which links you clicked on. None of this information can be used to identify you. It is all aggregated and, therefore, anonymized. Their sole purpose is to improve website functions. This includes cookies from third-party analytics services as long as the cookies are for the exclusive use of the owner of the website visited.

    • Advertising cookies. These cookies track your online activity to help advertisers deliver more relevant advertising or to limit how many times you see an ad. These cookies can share that information with other organizations or advertisers. These are persistent cookies and almost always of third-party provenance.

     

    We might also use pixel tags, which are small graphic files that allow us and third parties to monitor the use of the Site and provide us with information based on your interaction with the Site. These tags may collect the IP address of the device from which you loaded the page and the browser type. Pixel tags are also used by our third parties to collect information when you visit our site, the links and other actions you take on our site, and we may use this information in combination with cookies to display targeted advertisements.

     

    Other data technologies may be used that collect comparable information for security and fraud detection purposes.

     

    If you have any questions about cookies or to generally find out more about cookies, the All About Cookies website is a trusted resource.

     

    6. Your Choices

    Cookies

    On most web browsers, you will find a “help” section on the toolbar. Please refer to this section for information on how to receive a notification when you are receiving a new cookie and how to turn cookies off. Please see the links below for guidance on how to modify your web browser’s settings on the most popular browsers:

    • Apple Safari

    • Google Chrome

    • Microsoft Edge

    Note, however, that if you reject our request to use cookies or turn cookies off, you may be unable to access certain parts of the Site and you may not be able to benefit from the full functionality of the Site. To find out more about cookies and similar technologies, including how to see what cookies and similar technologies have been set and how to manage and delete them, visit www.allaboutcookies.org, and/or www.youronlinechoices.com. 

     

    Do Not Track

    Your browser may offer you a “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) option, which allows you to signal to operators of websites and web applications and services (including behavioral advertising services) that you do not wish such operators to track certain of your online activities over time and across different websites and platforms. There is no universally agreed-upon standard for what an organization should do when it detects a DNT signal. Currently, we do not monitor or take any action with respect to these signals or other mechanisms. Learn more about Do Not Track here.

     

    Communication Preferences

    With your consent, Ghost communicates with you via a variety of print and digital media.

     

    To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we use pixels that enable us to see if you open e-mails from us, if your computer supports such capabilities. You can opt out of receiving emails from us at any time. To manage your communications preferences with Ghost — or to opt out of communications entirely — please unsubscribe at the bottom of our emails or contact us at privacy@ghostlifestyle.com.

     

    If you opt in to our text messages, you agree to our Messaging Terms and Messaging Privacy Policy. You can opt-out of receiving further commercial text messages via the Messaging Service by responding to any of our text messages with any of the following replies: STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, or QUIT.

     

    Analytics

    We use Google Analytics to help us understand how our customers use the Site. Read more about how Google uses your Personal Information here and opt-out of Google Analytics here.

     

    7. How We Share Your Information

    Services Providers

    We share your Personal Information with our third-party service providers who provide services such as website hosting, payment processing, online chat functionality, data analysis, information technology, customer service, email delivery, online advertising, auditing, event planning and other services. For instance, we use Shopify to power our online store. You can read more about how Shopify uses your Personal Information here.

     

    Third Party Advertising

    We share information about your use of our Site and Services, and your interaction with our ads on other websites with our advertising partners to provide you with targeted advertisements or marketing communications we believe may be of interest to you. We collect and share some of this information directly with our advertising partners, and in some cases through the use of cookies or other technologies (which you may consent to, depending on your location).

     

    For more information about how targeted advertising works, visit the Network Advertising Initiative’s educational page here.

     

    You can opt out of targeted advertising by visiting the following:

    • Meta

    • Google

    • Bing

    • Twitter

    • LinkedIn

    • Pinterest

    • Tik Tok

     

    Other

    Aside from the instances described above, we may share your Personal Information:

    • to comply with the law;

    • to respond to claims or comply with legal process served on Ghost (e.g., a lawful subpoena, warrant, or court order);

    • to enforce or apply our policies or agreements;

    • to protect and defend our rights or property or that of our customers, employees, visitors, or the public;

    • in connection with a business transfer, sale, liquidation, or merger;

    • if we reasonably believe that an emergency involving immediate danger of death or serious physical injury to any person requires disclosure; and

    • to other parties only with your consent.

     

    8. Third Party Links

    Out Site may contain links to other websites such as social media platforms, other websites, and event and partner websites. These websites are not covered by this Privacy Notice. Please review the Privacy Notices or Policies of those websites to understand the privacy practices of these third parties.

     

    9. International Transfers of Personal Information

    The Site and App are operated in the United States. If you are located in another jurisdiction, please know that your information will be transferred to, stored, and processed in the United States. By using the Site and providing us with information, you consent to this transfer, processing and storage of your information in the United States. It is important to note that the privacy laws in the United States may not be as comprehensive as those in other countries such as those in the European Union (“EU”). Our service providers use appropriate safeguards to transfer your Personal Information to the United States.

     

    10. Security

    We seek to use reasonable organizational, technical and administrative measures to protect Personal Information. Unfortunately, no data transmission or storage system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure. Where we have given you (or where you have chosen) a password so that you can access certain areas of our site, you are responsible for keeping this password confidential. If you have reason to believe that your interaction with us is no longer secure (for example, if you feel that the security of your account has been compromised), please contact us using the information in the Contact Us section below.

     

    11. Retention of Personal Information

    Ghost will retain your Personal Information only for as long as is necessary for the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice. We will retain and use your Personal Information to the extent necessary to comply with our legal obligations (for example, if we are required to retain your Personal Information to comply with applicable laws), resolve disputes and enforce our legal agreements and policies.

     

    When deciding how long to keep your information, we consider:

    • How long we have had a relationship with you or provided our Services to you;

    • Whether we are subject to any legal obligations (e.g., any laws that require us to keep transaction records for a certain period of time before we can delete them)

    • Whether we have taken any legal positions (e.g., in connection with any statutes of limitation).

     

    Rather than delete your data, we might de-identify it by removing identifying details.

     

    All information you provide to us is stored on our secure servers or those of our third-party data storage providers.

     

    12. Your Rights Under the General Data Protection Regulation

    This section of our Privacy Notice applies if you are a data subject who resides or is located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”). We adopted this Policy to comply with European privacy laws, including the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”). Any terms defined in the GDPR have the same meaning when used in this Section.

     

    Under applicable law, we are considered the “data controller” of the personal information we handle under this Notice. In other words, Ghost is responsible for deciding how to collect, use and disclose this information, subject to applicable law.

     

    We hope to ensure that the Personal Information we possess is always accurate and therefore we encourage you to update your information in your own account in case any changes have occurred. We have listed below the rights that you may be able to exercise in respect of the processing of your Personal Information, subject to applicable law. We take every reasonable step to ensure that the Personal Information that we process are limited to the Personal Information that are reasonably required in connection with the purposes set out in this Privacy Notice.

     

    If you are a resident of or located within the EEA, you have certain data protection rights. These rights include:

    • The right to access, update or delete the information we have collected from you. Whenever made possible, you can access, update or request deletion of your Personal Information by contacting us at the contact information below.

    • The right of rectification. You have the right to have your information rectified if that information is inaccurate or incomplete.

    • The right to object. You have the right to object to our processing of your Personal Information.

    • The right of restriction. You have the right to request that we restrict the processing of your Personal Information.

    • The right to data portability. You have the right to be provided with a copy of the information we have on you in a structured, machine-readable, and commonly used format.

    • The right to withdraw consent. You also have the right to withdraw your consent at any time where Ghost relied on your consent to process your Personal Information.

     

    Legal Basis for Processing Personal Information

    We rely on the following legal bases for processing your Personal Information:

    • Processing of your Personal Information that you provide to us when you interact with our Services, such as making a purchase or watching our videos, is necessary to respond to or implement your request prior to entering into a contract with us.

    • When you apply for employment through our Site, processing of your contact details and data about your employment history and education (as needed to evaluate your job application, to conduct job interviews, and as is otherwise needed for recruitment) is necessary to respond to your request to process your application for employment. If you do not provide this data, we will not be able to process the application that you send through our Site.

    • We use account-related data to set up accounts for users in our platform and to administer and support those accounts (such as usernames, email address and billing information), provide you with access to the Services, contact you regarding your use of the Services or to notify you of important changes to the Services. Such use is necessary for the performance of the contract between you and us.

    • We will send you information by email on our new services or other promotions only with your consent or if you otherwise opt-in to receiving those communications. If you do not provide us with your consent to the processing of your Personal Information for this purpose, we will not send you this information. You have the right to withdraw your consent at any time as described below.

    • Our use of data relating to your use of the Site, App and/or the Services, described above, is necessary for our legitimate interests in understanding how the Site, App and the Services are being used by you, to improve your experience on it and our Services offerings. We have also a legitimate interest in aggregating and/or anonymizing the information that we collect through our Site and/or the Services and using this information for our business purposes, as described above. When we process your Personal Information for our legitimate interests, we make sure to consider and balance any potential impact on you, and your rights under data protection laws. Our legitimate business interests do not automatically override your interests – we will not use your Personal Information for activities where our interests are overridden by the impact on you, unless we have your consent or those activities are otherwise required or permitted to by law. You have the right to object to processing that is based on our legitimate interests, as further described below.

     

    Exercising Your Rights Under GDPR

    If applicable, you may exercise any of your rights under the GDPR by submitting a verifiable data subject request to us by using the information in the Contact Us section below. You may make a request related to your Personal Information or on behalf of someone for which you have authorization. You must include your full name, email address, and attest to the fact that you are a citizen or resident of the EEA by including your country of citizenship or residence in your request. We may require you to confirm your identity and/or legal standing for the request as well as your residency in the EEA in order to obtain the information. We will respond to your request within 30 days or let you know if we need additional time.

     

    Please note that we will ask you to verify your identity before responding to such requests, and we may deny your request if we are unable to verify your identity or authority to make the request.

     

    Should you wish to raise a concern about our use of your data (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local supervisory authority; however, we hope that we can assist with any queries or concerns you may have about our use of your Personal Information first by contacting us using the information in the Contact Us section below.

     

    13. Your Rights Under the UK GDPR

    If you are based in the United Kingdom, the following provisions also apply:

     

    UK GDPR means the Retained Regulation 2016/679 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 27 April 2016 on the protection of natural persons with regard to the processing of personal data and on the free movement of such data, and repealing Directive 95/46/EC.

     

    If we share your personal data within Ghost or with third parties located outside the United Kingdom, we take steps to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to guarantee the continued protection of your personal data, such as by entering into the international data transfer addendum to the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses, adopted by the UK Government under section 119A of the Data Protection Act 2018.

     

    You have the same data subject rights as those for the EU listed above, except that references to the "GDPR" should be read as references to the "UK GDPR" and complaints should be filed with the UK supervisory authority, the Information Commissioner’s Office.

     

    14. Your Rights Under the UK GDPR

    This section of our Privacy Notice applies to consumers who reside in California. We adopt this section to comply with the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) and California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”).

     

    If you are a California resident, you may be able to exercise the following rights. We will honor requests received to the extent required by applicable law and within the time provided by law.

     

    Right to Access and Information Regarding Personal Information

    You have the right to request that we disclose to you the categories and specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you. Specifically, you have the right to request that we disclose the following to you, in each case in the twelve-month period preceding your request:

    • The categories of Personal Information we have collected about you;

    • The categories of sources from which the Personal Information is collected;

    • Our business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling Personal Information;

    • The categories of third parties with whom we share Personal Information;

    • The specific pieces of Personal Information we have collected about you;

    • The categories of Personal Information about you, if any, that we have disclosed for monetary or other valuable consideration and the categories of third parties to which we have disclosed the information, by category or categories of Personal Information for each third party to which we disclosed the Personal Information; and

    • The categories of Personal Information about you that we disclosed for a business purpose.

     

    Right to Deletion of Personal Information

    You have the right to request that we delete Personal Information about you that we have collected from you. There may be certain exceptions to our obligation to delete your information such as if you have an existing account or transaction with us or if we have a legitimate business reason to keep your information.

     

    Right to Correct Personal Information

    You have the right to request that we correct any inaccurate information that we maintain about you.

     

    Right to Opt-Out of the Sale or Sharing of Personal Information

    You have the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of Personal Information. Ghost discloses your Personal Information to our business partners as described below. We do not sell Personal Information, but we recognize that some privacy laws define “personal information” in such a way that making available identifiers linked to you for a benefit may be considered a “sale.” To opt-out of this, please click on this link.

     

    Right to Non-Discrimination

    We may not discriminate against you because you have exercised any of the aforementioned rights, including by:

    • Denying you goods or services;

    • Charging different prices or rates for goods or services, including through the use of discounts or other benefits or imposing penalties;

    • Providing you a different level or quality of goods or services; or

    • Suggesting that you will receive different price or rate for goods or service or at a different level or quality of goods or services.

     

    This includes the right of current and prospective employees not to be retaliated against for the exercise of their CCPA rights.

     

    However, as permitted by the CCPA, we may offer you certain financial incentives. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your Personal Information’s value. Participation in a financial incentive program requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may withdraw at any time.

     

    Notice of Financial Incentives

    As permitted by the CCPA, we may offer you certain financial incentives and benefits by joining our Ghost Loyalty program. The information that we collect for enrollment in the program (listed above) allows us to tailor our communications and products and services suggestions for you. This, in turn, helps us establish a stronger relationship with you – something we at Ghost value.

     

    If you participate in the Ghost Loyalty program, there are two types of financial incentives:

    • Points. You can earn points when you do a number of activities, such as purchasing products from our online store, tagging us on social media, telling us your birthday, and referring friends to Ghost. These points can be used to discount the price of future purchases or buy exclusive merchandise from us. Any CCPA-permitted financial incentive we offer will reasonably relate to your Personal Information’s value. We estimate the value of Personal Information we request from our Ghost Loyalty program customers by comparing the amount spent by Ghost Loyalty program customers to similarly-situated customers who do not participate in the Ghost Loyalty program over a 12-month period.

    • Promotions. You may have access to certain special launches and promotions, along with giveaways where your status and/or points will grant you access to various prizes.

     

    In determining the value of this Personal Information to Ghost, we consider the profit generated from products that include Personal Information, which is reasonably correlated to the value provided to the consumer through personalized points, promotions, and other discounts or offers.

     

    Participation in the Ghost Loyalty program is voluntary and requires your prior opt-in consent, which you may revoke at any time. If you wish to leave the Ghost Loyalty program, please reach out to us using the information in the Contact Us section below.
