Privacy
How PACEFIELD handles account and browsing data.
PACEFIELD stores only the limited information needed for password-protected accounts, site security, reliable operation, and features you explicitly use. We do not verify that an email address belongs to the person registering it.

Account information
When you register, we store the email address, its normalized form, account status, creation time, and recent sign-in time. The email remains unverified and the account must not be used for sensitive information, payments, or administrative access.
My Training Plan data
My Training Plan uses the height, weight, preferred units, race category and starting point you choose. The starting point is translated on this device into an activity level, goal and limiter; optional result-page adjustments can change those details. Those inputs, the plan version, generation date, current week and completed-session markers are saved only in this browser's local storage so the result and progress can return after a refresh. They are not sent to PACEFIELD, attached to an account or stored in our database. Race category is used only for movement-standard context, height for movement setup, and weight for reviewed load references. Selecting Start over, clearing this site's browser data or using a different browser removes or leaves that local copy unavailable.
Passwords and security data
We never store the password itself. We store a salted, versioned scrypt password hash, the password update time, hashed verification answers, hashed network and browser-binding values, and hashed rate-limit keys. Failed authentication events are retained temporarily for abuse prevention.
Sessions
Session tokens are stored only as hashes. Sessions expire after 30 days unless they are signed out earlier. Changing a password revokes older sessions and creates a fresh session for the browser completing the change.
Cookies and local storage
Necessary cookies support verification and sign-in. A separate cookie remembers that you accepted the cookie notice. My Training Plan uses browser local storage rather than a cookie. PACEFIELD does not currently use advertising or analytics cookies.
Operational data
Standard security and reliability logs may include request time, browser information, and network information. Logs must not contain passwords, password hashes, verification answers, session tokens, authentication secrets, or full email addresses.
External links
Official race, gym, equipment and publisher links lead to third-party websites with their own privacy practices. Review those policies before sharing information with them.
