The following waivers are also included in this Section 2: 

PERSONAL PROPERTY 

BMF is not liable for lost or stolen personal property of its Members. Although BMF does maintain general security, BMF is not able to secure, monitor or supervise how Members handle their personal property. For example, for convenience, Members often leave personal property in the open while they shower or workout. BMF will not know who such property belongs to and whether someone who picks up personal property left in the open is the owner of that property. 

LOCKERS  

BMF is not liable for lost or stolen personal property of its Members from lockers at BMF. Although BMF will maintain lockers to operate as designed, BMF will not know who is using any particular locker and whether someone who picks up personal property has the authority to take property from a locker. 

USE OF SHOWERS AND LOCKER ROOMS  

BMF is not liable for Member developing or contracting any fungal or bacterial conditions from the use of BMF showers and locker rooms. Although BMF will strive to maintain showers and locker rooms that are clean and comfortable for the Member to use, BMF is not in a position to anticipate all of the potential sources of bacterial or fungal conditions, and BMF does not ask for information about the Member’s personal vulnerabilities to bacterial or fungal conditions. The Member must not engage in any kind of activity that creates conditions that are unsafe for the Member or other people in BMF showers and locker rooms. BMF is not liable for the actions of people who are not BMF staff in showers or locker rooms. Members are not permitted to use mobile phones or recording devices in the locker rooms. In particular, Members are not permitted to make video or audio recordings within showers or locker rooms. 

LIGHTING CONDITIONS  

BMF is not liable for injuries attributed to the lighting conditions. BMF workout facilities will use lighting that may be dark and use spotlights, moving lights and other lighting that are to enhance the workout experience. Moving from lighted spaces to the workout spaces may require extra caution. 

DIETARY CONSIDERATIONS   

BMF is not liable for conditions caused by a Member’s dietary restrictions or allergies. BMF does not ask for or keep information about a Member’s dietary restrictions or allergies.  

HEALTH CONDITIONS  

BMF is not liable for conditions caused by a Member’s health. BMF does not ask for or keep information about a Member’s health. Although BMF staff are watchful of the condition of Members during workouts, BMF will not be able to prevent a Member from engaging in workouts that are dangerous to their health. 

BACKGROUND OF MEMBERS AND GUESTS  

BMF does not perform background checks on its Members or people who are in BMF. Although BMF seeks to maintain a safe facility, BMF will not know whether any particular Member has a background that is unacceptable to other Members. MBF is not liable for any conditions that arise because BMF did not perform background checks on its Members of other persons in BMF. 

STYKU BODY SCANNING  

BMF is not liable for the results, data or use of the Styku body scanning equipment. BMF does not hold itself out as a medical provider, and the Styku body scanner is not intended to be relied on as a medical device or to provide medical information or diagnosis of medical conditions. Styku is available to Members for general information about their bodies. 

  1. Use of Images. Member authorizes BMF to use pictures and media of Member’s participation in fitness exercises at BMF without compensation.

Payment of fees shall be paid prior to the use of any programs, equipment and activities for which such fees are charged. Recurring monthly fees will be due and payable on the monthly anniversary of the Member entering into this Agreement. 
  1. Member Account. BMF uses a third-party web-based management system to store information about the Member, including credit/debit card information for payment of fees and purchases. BMF does not store any of the Member’s credit card information on computers or servers owned and controlled by BMF. At the time the Member enters into this Agreement, BMF will create an account for the Member on this third-party web-based management system (the “Member Account”) that will include information that is necessary to manage the Member’s services, including without limitation, contact information, types of services and packages, and credit/debit card information. BMF will not ask the Member for their social security number.  Member hereby authorizes BMF to have access to the Member Account to collect payment for BMF services and goods, including without limitation, membership fees, fees for services, and purchases of goods, through the credit/debit card specified on the Membership Level Selection Form or a credit/debit card authorized by the Member though the Member Account in lieu of presenting such payment card. Member authorizes BMF to collect recurring fee payments by automatically collecting payment for such recurring fees through the Member Account. Member acknowledges that they have reviewed and accepted BMF’s Privacy Policy , which explains how personal data is collected, used, and protected. 

BMF utilizes Mariana Tek, a third-party membership and studio management platform, to manage Member accounts and process payments. Mariana Tek, in turn, employs Stripe, Inc., a PCI-compliant payment processor, to securely handle all financial transactions. 

BMF does not store or have access to full credit or debit card information. All payment data is encrypted and managed directly through Mariana Tek and Stripe. 

By providing a payment method during the registration process, the Member agrees to be bound by the terms and privacy policies of both Mariana Tek and Stripe. BMF is not responsible for any errors, outages, data breaches, or terms of service associated with these third-party providers. 

Members are encouraged to review the privacy policies of both providers: 

6A. Free Trial & Credit Card Authorization Policy. As part of the Body Machine Fitness (BMF) Free Trial, members are required to place a valid credit or debit card on file during account creation. This card will not be charged unless the Member chooses to make a purchase, such as upgrading to a paid membership or selecting optional in-studio products or services. 

BMF collects this information to streamline check-in, reduce friction for future membership activation, and enhance overall Member convenience. This process is standard in many premium fitness and hospitality environments. 

All payment information is securely handled by BMF’s PCI-compliant third-party payment processor. BMF does not store your payment credentials directly and will never charge your card without your explicit consent.
