Privacy policy

Your data, plainly.

Last updated November 11, 2026

MindBodyBoat is an online strength and conditioning coaching service for sailors and outdoor athletes, run by Julian Soto in California. This page explains what I collect, why, who else handles it, and how I keep it safe. Questions or requests: mindbodyboat2@gmail.com.

What I collect

Your intake formName, email, mobile number (optional), age range, your goals, what you sail or train for, upcoming events, injuries or physical limits, where you train and what equipment you have, the support you want, and how you heard about MindBodyBoat. For under-18s, a parent's name and contact details.
CallsWhen you book a call: your name, email and the time. Calls run on Google Meet and may be recorded and transcribed by note-taking tools so I can build your program from what you said. I'll tell you at the start of the call, and you can ask me not to record.
The appYour name, email and the PIN you choose; health screening answers; your program, workouts and what you log (sets, weights, notes); check-ins such as sleep, stress, pain and body weight; food you log; voice notes you record; and your feedback. If you choose to connect Strava, your Strava activities.
PaymentsStripe handles your card. I see your name, email, plan, and whether a payment went through, never your full card number.
The websiteCounts of page visits and the link tag you arrived from (like ?src=instagram), counted without cookies and without storing your IP address. Vercel Web Analytics gives me cookie-free totals. The app saves your sign-in and settings on your own device.
MessagesEmails you send me and my replies.

How I use it

I don't sell your information, I don't use it for advertising, and I don't share it with anyone for their own marketing.

Who else handles it

I use these service providers to run MindBodyBoat. Each gets only what it needs to do its job, under its own privacy and security terms:

TallyIntake and other forms
GoogleCalendar bookings, Meet calls, Gmail, call notes (Gemini) and Drive storage
GranolaCall notes and transcripts
StripePayments and subscriptions
SupabaseThe app's database
VercelHosting for the website and app, and visit totals
Anthropic (Claude)AI that reads your intake and call notes to help me check fit and draft your offer, program and emails; turns food logs into nutrition numbers; and summarizes your logs and check-ins. I review and approve everything it drafts before it reaches you or shapes your coaching.
OpenAITurns your voice notes into text
ResendEmails sent by the app
ComposioConnects my coaching tools to Gmail to send the emails I approve
StravaOnly if you connect it

Your information reaches these providers over encrypted connections (HTTPS), through their own apps and APIs. The AI providers above process it under business terms that don't let them train their models on it. If MindBodyBoat assigns you a second coach, they see your program and logs to coach you, under the same rules. I'll also disclose information if the law requires it, or to protect someone's safety.

How I keep it safe

No system is perfectly secure. If a breach affects your information, I'll tell you promptly.

How long I keep it

I keep your coaching data while you're a client and for up to two years after, so you can come back without starting over. After that I delete it or strip out anything that identifies you. Payment records are kept as long as tax law requires. Ask me to delete your data sooner and I will, apart from what the law makes me keep.

Teens

Athletes aged 13 to 17 can join only with a parent or guardian's consent, and the program stays hidden until the parent agrees. I don't accept anyone under 13. A parent can ask to see, correct or delete their teen's information at any time.

Your choices and rights

Email mindbodyboat2@gmail.com and I'll reply within 30 days.

Changes

If I change this policy, I'll update the date at the top. If a change matters to how your data is used, I'll email current clients first.
