Security

TribalFitt is committed to protecting your data and your privacy.  We have implemented and follow commercially reasonable measures to protect against unauthorized access to and unlawful interception or processing of Personal Information. Unfortunately, data transmission over the Internet is never 100% secure so we cannot guarantee the security of any information you transmit to us or from our Sites and Services; therefore you use our Sites and Services at your own risk.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, we will provide any such notice to you at the email address associated with your user profile or registration invitation, as updated from time to time. By using the Site or Services, you agree to accept such notice electronically.

We recommend you use a strong password, never share it with others, and do not use the same password on other sites.  You are responsible for any transaction made using your username and password.

Communication sent via email or text messages is not a secure method of communication and is not encrypted, and you agree to assume said security risks, including the risk that the information contained within emails or text messages could be read by others.

Personal Information you submit via our Sites and Services is transmitted via Secure Socket Layer (SSL) or Transport Layer Security (TLS) encryption or other cryptographically secure encryption protocols and is stored in physically secured environments.
