Privacy Policy
This policy explains what PROOF collects, why we collect it, and how you can control your information. PROOF is built to respect athlete identity and keep you in control of what is public.
1) Information we collect
We collect information you provide directly and information generated through your use of PROOF.
- Account data: name, email, login identifiers (e.g., magic link), profile details you choose to add.
- Athlete profile: handle, bio, avatar, region (optional), public links (optional).
- Connected data sources: when you connect a provider (e.g., Strava), we receive tokens and activity/training data permitted by your authorization.
- Usage data: logs, device/browser info, IP address, timestamps, and basic analytics needed for security and product improvement.
2) How we use your information
- Provide and operate the service (login, profile, verification flows).
- Verify activities and generate reputation signals (e.g., verified milestones / Proof Cards).
- Protect security and prevent abuse (fraud detection, rate limiting).
- Improve product quality (debugging, performance, feature refinement).
- Communicate service-related messages (verification updates, important notices).
3) What becomes public
PROOF is designed around control. Your public profile and any Proof Cards are only public if you enable sharing. Connected raw data may be used to compute verification signals without publishing everything.
- Public items may include: handle, avatar, bio, and Proof Cards you share.
- Private items typically include: email, auth tokens, full activity details (unless you share).
4) Data sharing
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited data with:
- Service providers (hosting, email delivery, analytics) to operate PROOF.
- Legal/security if required to comply with law or protect rights and safety.
- With your action when you choose to share a public profile or Proof Card link.
5) Cookies & analytics
PROOF may use cookies/local storage for authentication, preferences, and basic analytics. You can control cookies via your browser settings, but some features may stop working.
6) Data retention
We retain information only as long as needed to operate PROOF and meet legal/security obligations. You can request deletion of your account and associated data (subject to limitations for compliance/security).
7) Your rights
- Access, correct, or delete your personal information.
- Control what is public on your profile (where available).
- Revoke provider access (e.g., disconnect Strava) at any time.
8) Contact
