Privacy Policy

Last updated: March 2026

1. Who We Are

Plan Your Run ("we", "us", "our") is a free running training plan service available at planyourrun.org. This policy explains what data we collect, how we use it, and your rights around it.

2. Google Sign-In Data

Plan Your Run uses Google OAuth 2.0 solely to authenticate users. We do not require you to create a separate username or password. When you sign in with Google, we receive the following information from Google:

  • Name — to personalise your experience
  • Email address — to identify your account and store your training plans
  • Profile picture — displayed in the app interface

We do not access your Google Calendar, Gmail, Google Contacts, or any other Google service. Our use of data received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

3. What Data We Collect and Store

Beyond your Google identity, we store the following data you provide while using the service:

  • Training plans you generate and save (race distance, race date, mileage goal, weekly workouts)
  • Training preferences (workout types, experience level, goal pace)
  • Race fitness inputs (recent race time, VDOT score) if provided
  • Workout completion status

This data is stored securely in Salesforce and is linked to your Google account email address.

4. How We Use Your Data

We use your data exclusively to provide the Plan Your Run service:

  • Authenticating you when you sign in
  • Saving and retrieving your training plans across sessions and devices
  • Generating personalised training plans based on your preferences
  • Displaying your dashboard and progress analytics

We do not use your data for advertising, profiling, or any purpose beyond delivering the service described above.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data with third parties. The only external service that processes your data is Salesforce, which we use as our secure data store. Salesforce's privacy practices are governed by their own privacy policy.

6. Data Retention

We retain your data for as long as you use the service. If you would like your account and all associated data deleted, contact us at the address below and we will remove it within 30 days.

7. Cookies and Local Storage

Plan Your Run does not use advertising or tracking cookies. We use browser localStorage to store your authentication session token and UI preferences (such as your last active tab) locally on your device. This data never leaves your browser and is not sent to any third party.

8. Children's Privacy

Plan Your Run is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

9. Your Rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal data we hold about you. To exercise any of these rights, contact us at the address below. You can also revoke Plan Your Run's access to your Google account at any time via your Google account permissions page.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. When we do, we will update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the service after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
