Some Village Gyms have tanning and solarium facilities included as part of the membership package. You understand that you have read and accept the following terms and conditions relating to tanning and solarium use at Village Gym. Before using the tanning equipment, you agree that you have read and understand your skin type and agree to comply with Village Gym’s recommendations outlined below:
Skin Type 1
People with very fair/sensitive skin and often with red/strawberry blond hair and freckles, pale blue, pale grey or pale green eyes. People who hardly or never tan. Recommendations: You should not tan on a sunbed or outdoors.
Skin Type 2
People with fairish skin who usually burn and sometimes tan. Tend to have light hair, blue or brown eyes. Recommendations: The EU scientific committee on Customer Products states that people with skin types 1 and 2 should NOT proceed with UV tanning.
Skin Type 3
People with brownish white skins who tan fairly easily, they should respect the fact that they can still burn, especially without a base tan. Recommendations: Although you tan easily you should respect the fact that you still burn.
Skin Type 4
People with dark skin who tan easily and hardly ever burn, but even so need to be careful that they don’t go through prolonged over-exposure.
Recommendations: You tan easily but should never have more than the full recommended session time.
There are skin types 5 & 6, 5 being naturally brown skin and 6 being brown/black skin. Generally, customers wishing to use sunbeds will fall into skin types 3 and 4.
Tanning should be undertaken with caution. To ensure you tan effectively and responsibly please read the following information before using the solaria:
If any of the above applies to you, please consult your doctor before using the solaria.
You declare that you have read and understood the advisory guidelines, and government recommendations not to exceed 20 tanning sessions per year and no more than one session per 24-hour period.
You declare to the best of your knowledge that the information you have provided is correct. You are over 18 years of age, are not affected by any of the above and know of no reason why you should not undertake a tanning session.
