This policy only applies to the collection and processing of personal data by Nike Inc,., located at Bowerman Drive 1, Beaverton, OR 97005, USA through the Nike Sports Research Lab Athlete* Profile website or mobile application (hereafter: the "Platform").

COLLECTING PERSONAL DATA
We collect information about you from different sources and in various ways when you use the Platform, including information you provide directly and information we collect automatically.
Information you provide directly. We ask you for certain personal data to help us determine eligibility and select participants for research studies and to communicate with you about participating in research with Nike. If you are selected for a study, you will be provided separate notice and we will seek your consent to collect additional information as part of the particular research study you are participating in.
The personal data we ask you to submit will include optional survey questions and may include your:
- Contact details including name, email, telephone number;
- Login and account information, including email and password;

- Personal details including gender and date of birth;
- Physical characteristics including weight, height, and body measurements (such as shoe/foot measurements or apparel size); and
- Fitness activity data such as the sports you participate in, levels of play, and frequency and intensity of your workouts.
The Platform enables you to create an Athlete* Profile using your Nike Member Account log-in and basic profile information as noted during the onboardig process. Note, however, that your interactions with Nike and your Nike member account outside of this Platform are covered by the Nike Privacy Policy available on www.nike.com.
