Information we collect
Information you give us directly — when you request a consultation, book a session, or fill out a contact or intake form, we collect the information you provide, which may include your name, email address, phone number, and any details you choose to share about your goals, schedule, or (for training-safety purposes only) relevant physical considerations on an intake or waiver form.
Information collected automatically — this site is built and hosted on GoHighLevel, our website and scheduling platform. GoHighLevel may automatically collect basic technical information (such as pages visited) and may use cookies to operate the site and, if you accept them, to understand aggregate site usage. See our Cookie Policy for details and how to control this.
We do not use Google Analytics or Meta/Facebook Pixel on this site, and we do not run ad retargeting campaigns based on your visit.
How we use your information
- To respond to your inquiry and schedule a free consultation or training session
- To communicate with you about your session — including appointment confirmations and reminders by phone, text, or email
- To provide and administer training services, including any safety-related information you've shared
- To maintain ordinary business records
We do not use your information for any purpose beyond running this training business, and we do not sell or rent your personal information to anyone.
Text messages and phone calls
If you provide your phone number, we may contact you by phone or text message about your inquiry, your free consultation, or a scheduled session (for example, an appointment reminder). Message and data rates may apply. Consent to receive texts is never a condition of booking, and you can opt out at any time by replying STOP to any text, or by contacting us directly.
Who we share information with
We share limited information only with the service providers that help us operate the business:
- GoHighLevel — our website, scheduling, and client-communication platform, which stores the contact and appointment information you submit on our behalf.
- Payment apps (Zelle, PayPal, or Venmo) — if you choose to pay through one of these, the transaction happens directly on that provider's platform under its own privacy policy. We never see or store your card, bank account, or login details.
Beyond these, we do not share, sell, or disclose your personal information to third parties, except where required by law (for example, in response to a valid legal request).
Health-related information
If you disclose physical limitations, injuries, or other health-related information on an intake or waiver form, we use it solely to train you safely and appropriately. We are not a healthcare provider and this site is not a substitute for medical advice — see our Terms & Conditions.
Data retention
We keep your personal information for as long as reasonably needed to provide our services, respond to your inquiries, and maintain ordinary business and tax records, after which we delete or de-identify it.
Your choices
- You can ask us to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you at any time by emailing [email protected].
- You can control non-essential cookies through the cookie banner on this site — see our Cookie Policy.
- You can opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP.
If you are a California (or other US state) resident, you may have additional rights under your state's privacy law, including the right to know what personal information we hold and to request its deletion. We do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising. To exercise any of these rights, contact us using the details above.
Children's privacy
This site is not directed at children. Group or family sessions involving minors are booked and consented to by a parent or guardian, who is the one submitting any information to us on the minor's behalf.
Security
We take reasonable steps to protect the information you share with us, but no method of transmission or storage over the internet is completely secure, and we can't guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy from time to time. The "Effective" date at the top reflects the latest version. Continued use of this site after a change means you accept the updated policy.
