Coaching means handling information about your body. This page sets out exactly what is collected, why, who can see it, and how to get it deleted.

What we collect

  • Account details: your name, email address and password. Passwords are stored as Argon2id hashes and are never readable, including by your coach.
  • Health and fitness data you enter: height, weight, tape measurements, training logs, meal adherence, sleep entries and cardio sessions.
  • Check-in photos, if you choose to upload them. Photos are optional; coaching works without them, though progress is harder to assess.
  • Technical data needed to run the service: IP address and browser type in server logs, kept for security and troubleshooting.

Why we collect it

  • To write and adjust your training program and meal plan.
  • To show you your own progress over time in the client portal.
  • To let your coach review your check-ins and respond to your messages.
  • We do not sell your data, share it with advertisers, or use it to train machine-learning models.

Who can see your data

  • You, and Coach Auto. Nobody else has access to your measurements, photos or logs.
  • Check-in photos are served only to your signed-in account through an authenticated request. They are not public URLs, are never indexed by search engines, and location metadata is stripped from every image on upload.
  • Testimonials on the public site are published only with the client's explicit written permission, using first name and last initial.

How long it is kept

  • Your data is kept while your account is open, so your history stays intact between coaching blocks.
  • You can ask for your account and all associated data to be deleted at any time by emailing coachauto2026@gmail.com. Deletion is permanent and removes your logs, measurements and photos.

Your rights

  • You can request a copy of everything held about you, ask for corrections, or ask for deletion.
  • Requests are answered within 30 days. Email coachauto2026@gmail.com to make one.

Cookies

  • One essential cookie keeps you signed in. It is HttpOnly, meaning scripts cannot read it, and it exists solely to maintain your session.
  • The public website uses Google Analytics 4 to count page visits and enquiries, so we know which pages help people. It is configured to collect no advertising data, no Google signals and no personal details; page addresses are sent without their query strings.
  • Visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland are measured without analytics cookies (Google Consent Mode, analytics storage denied by default).
  • You can opt out everywhere with the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on, or by blocking cookies from google-analytics.com.
