What we keep when you join, claim a free pass or ask a coach, and why. It's short, because we keep very little.
Last updated 2 November 2026
Who we are
Kiln Athletic Club, Unit 4, Mill Row Works, Ancoats, Manchester M4 6FG. We decide what happens to your details, and you can ask us anything about them at hello@kiln.example.
What we keep
When you join: your name, email, phone number, date of birth (to check the age rules), the plan you chose and your first day. We don't see or keep your card number: the payment provider handles it.
When you claim a free day pass: your name, email, optional phone number and the day you chose.
When you ask for a class place or a coach: your name, email, optional phone number, what you chose and any note you write.
Health information. This website doesn't ask for it. A short health questionnaire is filled in on paper at the front desk, and please don't put health details in the note boxes.
Why
Only to run your membership and to answer you: to confirm your place, send your pass, and reach you if something changes. We don't send newsletters, and we never sell your details or use them for advertising.
Who else sees it
The payment provider that takes your first payment, and the form service that brings your request to our inbox. They handle your details for us and use them for nothing else.
How long we keep it
Free passes and requests: 6 months. Members: for as long as you're a member, then 12 months, which is the time we need for refunds and queries.
Cookies
This site sets no cookies and doesn't follow you around the web, so there's no cookie banner.
Everything on it, the typefaces too, comes from this site itself, so opening a page tells no one else you're here. The Get directions link opens Google Maps, but only if you click it.
Your rights
You can ask to see what we hold about you, to correct it, or to delete it. Email hello@kiln.example and we'll answer within a month.
If you're unhappy with how we've handled your details, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.
