Privacy Policy

Introduction

MyRace.ai ("we," "us," or "our") operates the MyRace.ai website and mobile applications (collectively, the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our Service.

By using MyRace.ai, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this Privacy Policy.

Information We Collect

Information You Provide to Us

• Account Information: Name, email address, phone number, and password when you create an account.
• Profile Information: Athletic profile details such as age, gender, race history, and performance goals.
• Race Data: Race results, timing data, GPS/course data, and related athletic performance information.
• Communications: Messages, feedback, and correspondence you send to us.
• SMS/Text Messaging Consent: When you opt in to receive text messages, we collect your mobile phone number and your consent preferences.

Information Collected Automatically

• Usage Data: Information about how you access and use the Service, including pages viewed, features used, and time spent on the platform.
• Device Information: Device type, operating system, browser type, and unique device identifiers.
• Location Data: General location information derived from your IP address or, with your consent, more precise location data.

Information from Third Parties

• Race Organizations: We may receive race results and timing data from race organizers and timing companies.
• Public Race Results: We may collect publicly available race results to provide analysis and insights.

Connected Fitness Accounts and Wearable Devices

If you choose to connect a third-party fitness or wearable account — such as Garmin Connect and Polar, and, as they become available, COROS, Suunto, and similar services — you authorize us, through that provider's secure OAuth consent flow, to receive your activity and workout data. We do not collect any data from a connected account until you explicitly authorize the connection, and we request only the access needed to show and analyze your activities. Depending on the provider and the permissions you grant, this may include:

• Activity and Workout Summaries: Activity type, date and time, duration, distance, pace and speed, calories, and elevation gain/loss.
• Route and Location Data: GPS route and location recorded during an activity.
• Sensor Metrics: Heart rate, cadence, and other metrics recorded during an activity.
• Device Details: The device or app that recorded the activity.

You can disconnect a connected account at any time from your account settings, which stops all future data syncing. See “Your Rights and Choices” below for how to remove activity data you have already synced.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, maintain, and improve the Service
• Create and manage your account
• Deliver personalized race analysis, insights, and recommendations
• Display and analyze activities you sync from connected fitness accounts and wearable devices, including maps, splits, pace, heart rate, and elevation
• Generate AI-powered analysis and insights from your activities and race data
• Enrich your activities with contextual information, such as historical weather for the activity's time and location
• Send you race results, analysis notifications, and service updates
• Send SMS/text messages if you have opted in to receive them
• Respond to your inquiries and provide customer support
• Analyze usage patterns to improve user experience
• Comply with legal obligations

Social Features, Following, and Sharing

MyRace includes optional social features that let you follow other athletes, see their activities, and interact through cheers and comments. You are in control of what you share and who can see it. You can manage everything described below in Settings → Privacy.

Following and Private Accounts

New accounts are private by default. When your account is private, other athletes must send a follow request that you approve before they can see your followers-only activities. You can make your account public at any time, in which case others can follow you without approval. You can also remove followers, and blocking someone removes any follow relationship in both directions.

Activity Visibility

Every activity you sync has an audience setting, which defaults to Followers. You can set the default and change any individual activity to:

• Everyone: visible to anyone, including logged-out visitors.
• Followers: visible only to people whose follow you have accepted.
• Only You: private to you.

A private account clamps any “Everyone” activity to “Followers.” Note that your public athlete profile and official race results remain publicly viewable and may be indexed by search engines; activity visibility controls the activities you sync from connected devices, not published race results.

Hidden Details and Map Privacy

You can hide specific metrics — heart rate, pace/speed, and power — from people viewing your activities, and you can hide the start and end of your routes within a radius you choose to help protect sensitive locations such as your home. These controls apply to how your activities appear to other athletes; you always see your own full data.

Cheers and Comments

Athletes who can see an activity can leave cheers and comments, subject to your “who can comment” and “who can cheer” settings. Comments are screened by automated moderation and may be held for review. You can delete comments on your own activities, and comment authors can delete their own comments. Cheers and comments, along with the display name and profile photo of the person who left them, are visible to others who can see that activity.

Blocking and Muting

You can block another athlete, which prevents them from following you or seeing your activities and removes any existing follow relationship in both directions. You can also mute an athlete to remove their activities from your feed without blocking them. You can manage blocked and muted athletes in Settings → Privacy.

Notifications

We notify you in the app when someone follows you (or requests to follow you), when a follow request you sent is accepted, and when someone cheers or comments on your activities. You can also receive these as emails; email notifications are optional and can be turned off in Settings → Email. In-app notifications remain available regardless of your email choices.

SMS/Text Messaging

Opt-In and Consent

By providing your mobile phone number and opting in to receive text messages from MyRace.ai, you consent to receive SMS/text messages related to:

• Race results and notifications

Opting Out

You may opt out of receiving text messages at any time by:

Mobile Information Privacy

We do not share, sell, rent, or disclose your mobile phone number, SMS opt-in data, or text messaging consent information with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes.

We may share mobile information only with service providers and subcontractors who assist us in delivering the Service (such as SMS delivery platforms and customer support services), and only to the extent necessary to provide those services. These service providers are contractually obligated to protect your information and may not use it for any other purpose.

Your text messaging opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties.

By providing your email address, you may receive the following types of emails from MyRace.ai:

• Transactional Emails: Account verification, password resets, race result notifications, and support correspondence. These are essential for your use of the Service.
• Service Updates: Information about new features, product updates, and changes to the Service.
• Marketing and Promotional: Newsletters, special offers, and partner promotions. You will only receive these if you separately opt in.

Opting Out

You may manage your email preferences at any time by:

• Clicking the "Unsubscribe" link at the bottom of any marketing email
• Updating your communication preferences in your account settings
• Contacting us at privacy@myrace.ai

Please note that even if you opt out of marketing emails, you will continue to receive transactional emails necessary for your account and use of the Service.

Email Privacy

We do not sell, rent, or share your email address with third parties for their marketing purposes. We may share your email with service providers who help us deliver emails (such as email delivery platforms), but they are contractually prohibited from using your information for any other purpose.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

These service providers are authorized to use your information only as necessary to provide services to us and are obligated to protect your information. We do not sell your activity, workout, or health-related data, and we do not use it for advertising.

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Data Retention

We retain your personal information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide you services. We will retain and use your information as necessary to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements.

Activity and workout data synced from connected accounts is retained while your account is active so we can display and analyze it for you. You can remove individual activities from your feed, disconnect a connected account to stop future syncing, or request deletion of your synced activity data as described in “Your Rights and Choices.”

• Deletion: Request deletion of your personal information
• Portability: Request a copy of your data in a portable format
• Opt-Out: Opt out of certain data processing activities
• Disconnect Connected Accounts: Disconnect a connected fitness or wearable account at any time from your account settings, and request deletion of activity data you have already synced

Children's Privacy

The Service is not intended for individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child under 13, we will take steps to delete that information.

International Data Transfers

Your information may be transferred to and processed in countries other than your country of residence. These countries may have data protection laws that are different from the laws of your country.

Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last Updated" date. Your continued use of the Service after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the new Privacy Policy.
