Many gyms now use access control systems that track member attendance and facility usage, creating detailed behavioral profiles. Biometric data used for locker or turnstile access is subject to specific biometric privacy laws in some US states. The California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), enhanced by the CPRA in 2023, gives California residents extensive rights over their personal data.
