Privacy Policy

Information We Collect

We collect information in several ways to provide you with the best experience possible. When you register for an account or sign up for group rides and cycling events, we collect your name, email address, phone number, and cycling experience level. This helps us match you with appropriate rides suited to your skill and fitness level.

We also gather usage information automatically when you browse our website. This includes your IP address, browser type, pages visited, and the time spent on each page. Additionally, we collect information about your participation in our weekend scenic cycling routes, charity bike ride announcements, and gravel trail ride schedules through event registration forms.

We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience and remember your preferences. This information helps us personalize content and understand how visitors interact with our platform.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to provide and improve our cycling club services and group ride events. Your personal data helps us organize rides tailored to the 40-60 age group demographic, send you updates about upcoming scenic routes, charity cycling events, indoor spinning class meetups, and gravel trail schedules.

We analyze usage patterns to enhance our website functionality and user experience. Your information allows us to communicate with you about ride confirmations, route changes, weather alerts, and community announcements. We also use aggregated, non-identifying data to understand trends in cycling preferences and improve our event offerings.

We never sell your personal information to third parties. However, we may share information with trusted partners who help us organize rides, manage events, or provide services essential to our operations. All partners are bound by confidentiality agreements.

We comply with applicable data protection laws and regulations. If you have concerns about how we handle your data or believe your privacy rights have been violated, please reach out to us immediately so we can address your concerns.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies to remember your preferences, improve website performance, and understand how you interact with our cycling club platform. Cookies help us provide a seamless experience across visits, such as keeping you logged in and remembering your favorite ride routes.
