Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how GoRideForge (“we,” “us”) collects, uses, and protects your information when you use our website. By using the site, you agree to the practices described here.

Information we collect

• Information you provide: such as your name and email address when you use the Bike Finder, subscribe to our newsletter, or contact us.
• Usage data: pages visited, links clicked, device and browser type, and similar analytics data, collected automatically.
• Cookies: small files used to remember preferences (such as your region) and to measure site performance.

How we use your information

• To provide bike recommendations and respond to your enquiries.
• To send newsletters or updates you have opted into (you can unsubscribe at any time).
• To measure and improve the performance and content of our site.
• To track affiliate referrals so partner retailers can attribute purchases.

Third-party services

We use third-party services that may process data on our behalf, including web analytics (e.g. Google Analytics) and affiliate networks. When you click an affiliate link, the destination retailer's own privacy policy governs any data you share with them. We do not sell your personal information.

Your rights

Depending on your location (including under GDPR in the UK/EU and CCPA in California), you may have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data, or to opt out of certain processing. To exercise these rights, contact us at hello@gorideforge.com.

Data retention & security

We keep personal data only as long as necessary for the purposes described above and take reasonable measures to protect it. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, however, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Children's privacy

Our site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “last updated” date above reflects the most recent revision.
