What is public
The fleet total, the number of runners enlisted, the pace, milestone crossings and the projected return. These are sums across every runner. No individual's mileage is ever shown to anyone but that runner and the mission admins.
If you opt in, your first name is shown next to a milestone your run crossed. This is off by default and can be changed on your account page.
What is stored
- Your name, email address and a hashed password. If you sign in with Strava or Google instead, we store the id that service gives us for you; with Strava there is no email unless you add one.
- Each run you log: date, distance, activity type and the timezone your browser reported.
- If you connect a fitness service such as Strava or Garmin: the connection tokens, stored encrypted, and for each synced run its date, distance, activity type and the service's id for it. The raw record the service sent is kept so the entry can be rebuilt or checked.
- Standard server logs for a short period.
Nothing is sold or shared with advertisers. There are no tracking scripts.
Connected services
Connecting a service lets it tell us about your runs. We read only activity data, never messages, contacts or location streams. You can disconnect at any time from your log page. Disconnecting keeps the runs already counted and stops new ones. You can also revoke access from the service's own settings.
Deleting your account
You can delete your account from the account page. Your name, email and connections are removed. Your runs stay in the ledger as anonymous rows with no link to you, so the fleet total does not go backwards. If you want those rows removed as well, email us and we will do it.
We send email only to verify your address, reset your password or answer something you asked. There is no newsletter.
