Version 1.0 (Draft) — Effective August 2026
The Endurance Coaching Platform (ECP) is designed to support the coaching relationship by helping coaches and athletes plan training, review performance and communicate effectively.
Our guiding principle is: Coaching comes before data.
We only collect and use information that has a genuine coaching purpose.
By creating an ECP account, you acknowledge that you have read this Privacy Notice.
The Endurance Coaching Platform ("ECP") is operated by David Lee, in an individual capacity, who is the data controller for information stored within the platform unless otherwise stated.
If you have any questions about this Privacy Notice or your personal information, please contact your coach or the ECP administrator.
Depending on how you use ECP we may collect:
Where connected services are authorised (such as Strava), ECP may receive activities, GPS routes, training metrics, heart rate, pace, cadence, elevation, session descriptions and photographs attached to activities on the connected service.
Where consent has been given, we may store photographs and video recordings for coaching analysis.
For athletes under 18 we also collect: parent or guardian name, contact details, and consent declarations.
We use information to support coaching, plan training, monitor athlete development, communicate with athletes, support athlete welfare, maintain safeguarding records, improve coaching decisions and operate the platform securely.
We do not sell personal information.
Depending on the circumstances we process information because you have given consent; processing is necessary to provide coaching services; we have legitimate interests in operating a safe coaching platform; or we have legal obligations relating to safeguarding and record keeping.
Where consent is relied upon, it may be withdrawn at any time.
You may choose to connect third-party services such as Strava. These connections are optional and may be disconnected at any time. Disconnecting a service will stop future imports but will not automatically remove data already imported into ECP.
Images and video are used primarily for coaching and technical analysis. Separate consent is requested for coaching analysis, sharing within the coaching team, and promotional use. Promotional consent is optional and may be withdrawn at any time.
ECP takes safeguarding seriously. For athletes under 18, parent or guardian consent is required. ECP is being built so that, once its communication features are available, communication involving the athlete will be accessible to their registered parent or guardian. Additional safeguards apply before accounts are activated.
Access is restricted according to role. Depending on permissions, information may be accessible to the athlete, their coach, authorised coaches within the coaching team, registered parent or guardian (where applicable), and authorised ECP administrators.
Information is retained only for as long as it serves a legitimate coaching, safeguarding or legal purpose. Former athletes may request deletion of information where appropriate, subject to legal or safeguarding obligations. See the Data Retention and Deletion Policy for full details.
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information, including secure authentication, encrypted communications where available, role-based permissions and regular software maintenance. No internet-based service can guarantee absolute security, but we continually work to protect your information.
Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to access your information, correct inaccurate information, withdraw consent, request deletion where appropriate, restrict certain processing, and receive a copy of information you have provided.
Requests should be made through your coach or the ECP administrator.
