Who we are

Stride Coaching is a running-coaching business operated as a sole proprietorship based in Fargo, North Dakota. This policy explains what personal information we collect through this website, how we use it, and the choices you have. Questions are always welcome at jacobknodle.stridecoaching@gmail.com.

Information we collect

The only place this website collects personal information is the coaching application form. If you apply, we collect:

  • Your name and email address (required).
  • Your goal race or distance, and which service you're interested in.
  • An optional message. You choose what to include here — some athletes share training history, schedule constraints, or injury details. Any health-related information you include is provided voluntarily and is used only to evaluate and inform your coaching.

If you simply browse the site without applying, we do not collect personal information about you.

How we use your information

We use the information you submit to:

  • Review your application and respond to you.
  • Set up and deliver coaching services if you're accepted.

We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it with third parties for their marketing. Application details are sent by email to the business address above and stored so we can manage applications.

Service providers

A small number of services help run this website and the coaching practice:

  • Base44 — hosts this website, stores application submissions, and delivers the email notification when you apply.
  • Google Fonts — this site loads its typefaces from Google's servers, which means your browser sends a standard web request (including your IP address) to Google when the page loads.
  • TrainingPeaks — if you become a coached athlete, your training plans and training data are delivered and managed through TrainingPeaks under its own terms and privacy policy.

Cookies and local storage

We do not use analytics, advertising trackers, or marketing cookies. The website platform stores a few functional values in your browser's local storage that are needed for the site to work (for example, platform session information). These are not used to track you across other sites.

Data retention and your choices

We keep application information for as long as it's needed to evaluate your application and, if you become an athlete, to provide coaching. You can email us at any time to ask what information we hold about you, to correct it, or to have it deleted, and we will honor the request unless we need to keep something for legal or record-keeping reasons.

Children

This website and our coaching services are intended for adults and college-age athletes. The site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has submitted information through this site, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

If our data practices change, we will update this page and revise the "Last updated" date above.
