3. How We Share Your Information
We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share information in the following circumstances:
-
Service providers: With companies that help us operate our business, including Mariana Tek, payment processors, website providers, and communication services. We provide information needed to support their services and require appropriate confidentiality and data protections.

-
Business transitions: If the studio is involved in a sale, merger, acquisition, or reorganization, relevant client and business records may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.
4. Photography, Video, and Social Media
Personal Recording
Clients may record personal videos only from the back row and only when no other clients or instructors are visible in the recording. Recording must not disrupt class or interfere with another person’s experience.
Studio Content
Meraki may occasionally take photographs or short videos during classes or studio activities for use on our website, social media, and promotional materials, subject to any consent required by law. If you do not wish to appear in studio marketing content, please notify management in writing and let your instructor know before class. We will respect your preference when capturing and selecting content.
5. How We Protect Information
We maintain reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards intended to protect personal information against unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, loss, or misuse.
Our payment providers handle payment transactions using security measures designed to meet applicable payment-card industry requirements. However, no internet transmission or electronic storage method is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
Mobile phone numbers and text messaging consent information will not be sold or shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes. We may provide this information to service providers solely to operate our messaging program or as required by law.
6. How Long We Keep Information
We retain personal information while your account is active and for as long as reasonably necessary to provide services, maintain required records, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the reason it was collected.
7. Minors and Children’s Privacy
Meraki’s services are intended for adults aged 18 and older. Individuals ages 16–17 may participate with explicit consent from a parent or legal guardian and a completed parent or guardian waiver. We do not knowingly collect or request personal information from children under 16. If we discover that information from a child under 16 has been collected, we will promptly take steps to delete it. If you believe a child has provided information to us contrary to this policy, please contact us using the details below.

You can also manage cookies through your browser settings. Restricting cookies may affect certain website or booking features.
