What you type into the calculators

Goal times, pacing choices and run/walk intervals are calculated in your browser and are not sent to us. They are written into the page address (for example ?goal=3:30:00) so you can bookmark or share a plan. Anyone you send that link to can read those settings, and when a plan link is opened, the full address is sent to Cloudflare, which hosts the site, as with any web page.

Advertising and cookies

This site works with Google AdSense, Google's advertising service, to show ads. Where ads are shown:

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info/choices, or, in Europe, at youronlinechoices.eu.

Google AdSense is the only ad network on this site. Google explains how it uses data from sites that show its ads in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services, and lists the ad technology providers it may work with on its ad technology providers page. If we add another ad network, it will be named here, with a link to its own opt-out, before its ads appear.

In the European Economic Area, the UK and Switzerland, Google shows personalized ads only after you agree through a consent message from a Google-certified consent platform. Without that consent, any ads you see are non-personalized or limited ads.

If you live in California or another US state with a privacy law, you can turn off personalized ads in Google Ads Settings at any time. We do not sell personal information for money, and the only personal information we keep is an email you choose to send us.

Analytics

On racepaceplanner.com we use Cloudflare Web Analytics. It reports totals such as page views, visits, pages viewed, referring sites, countries, browser and device types, and page-load speed. Cloudflare states that it does not use cookies or localStorage and does not fingerprint visitors by IP address or user agent. We do not see IP addresses and cannot identify you from these reports.

We also run Umami on our own server (stats.raiansar.com). It records page views, referring sites, country, browser and device type, and three kinds of click: Print pace band, Copy plan link and Amazon affiliate links. It sets no cookies, keeps nothing in your browser, and stores no IP addresses. We do not record the goal times you enter or anything else you type.

Hosting

The site is served by Cloudflare. To deliver pages and protect the site from abuse, Cloudflare processes your IP address and request details under its own privacy policy. We do not keep our own request logs.

Amazon links

A few pages link to Amazon as an Amazon Associate, and those links carry our Associates tracking ID so Amazon can tell that a purchase came from this site. We add nothing to your browser; after you click, you are on Amazon, and its own privacy notice and cookies apply. Which links these are, and what they do not change, is in the affiliate disclosure.

Children

The site is written for adult runners. It is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Email and your choices

If you email hello@racepaceplanner.com, we use your message only to reply and to fix the site, and we delete it when it is no longer needed for that. It is not added to any list. To ask what we hold about you or to have it deleted, email the same address.

When this policy changes, the date at the top changes with it. The terms of use cover the rest of how the site may be used.
