1. Overview & Data Minimisation
At Pace & Fuel (accessible via https://paceandfuel.com), we treat visitor privacy with strict data minimisation principles. We do not require user account registration, we do not lock calculators behind sign-up forms, and we do not harvest or sell personal data.
2. Data Collected via Contact Forms
When you use our direct web submission form on our Contact page, the information you submit (name, email address, inquiry topic, and message content) is processed securely via our transmission partner, Formspree Inc.
This data is collected solely for the legitimate operational purpose of responding to your inquiry, correcting race checkpoints, or addressing commercial communication. We do not use submitted email addresses for automated marketing sequences or spam lists.
3. Affiliate Links & Third-Party Network Cookies
Pace & Fuel contains outbound links to merchant partners and sports equipment retailers. When you click an affiliate link on this website, tracking cookies may be set on your device by the retailer or affiliate network to register qualifying purchases and attribute referral commissions.
- Amazon Services LLC Associates Program: We participate in Amazon's associate advertising program. Amazon uses cookies to identify referrals and track purchases according to the Amazon Privacy Notice.
- Awin Affiliate Network: We partner with merchants operating via the Awin network (such as Runnr Active). Awin utilizes attribution cookies to monitor lead generation and successful transactions without recording sensitive personally identifiable information.
These cookies typically expire after a standard duration (often between 24 hours and 30 days) and do not give Pace & Fuel direct access to your payment details, billing address, or customer account data on the target vendor's site.
4. Hosting & Server Log Analytics
Our web assets are served through distributed cloud infrastructure (including Cloudflare). Edge servers routinely record technical diagnostic data such as Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser user-agent strings, referring URLs, and timestamps. This information is processed exclusively to maintain infrastructure uptime, prevent denial-of-service attempts, and protect platform security.
5. Cookie Management & Browser Controls
You have full control over the storage of cookies on your browser. You can modify your browser settings to refuse third-party cookies, clear existing cookies, or notify you when a cookie is placed. Note that disabling cookies will not affect your ability to view and use our fueling calculators, pace generators, or training schedules.
6. UK GDPR & Data Protection Rights
Under the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and Data Protection Act 2018, visitors located in the United Kingdom and the European Economic Area possess statutory rights regarding personal data, including the right to request access, rectification, or erasure of any communication submitted to us.
