Who we are

This website is run by Bishop's Stortford Running Club (including our triathlon section, Stortford Tri), c/o Hockerill Sports & Social Club, Beldams Lane, Bishop's Stortford CM23 5LG. The club is responsible for the information you send us through the site. To ask about anything on this page, use the contact form.

What we collect

We only collect what you choose to send us:

• Contact form: your name, email address, the topic you pick and your message.
• Results form: your name and email address, plus the race, date, distance, times, any results link and notes you add.

The website doesn't ask you to create an account, and it doesn't use analytics or advertising trackers.

How we use it

• Contact form messages are emailed to the club volunteer who looks after that topic (for example membership or juniors), so they can reply to you.
• Race results you submit are used to update the club's results, records and championship standings, which are published on this website and shared with members. Your email address is not published.

We use this information because you have asked us to respond or to record your result (our legitimate interest in running the club). We don't sell it or use it for marketing.

Who handles it for us

• Cloudflare hosts the website and runs the forms. Like most web hosts it keeps short-term technical logs, such as IP addresses, to keep the site secure.
• Resend, an email delivery service based in the United States, sends form messages on to the club's email addresses.
• The club's email accounts are hosted by 20i.

Membership, bookings and event sign-ups happen on myclubhouse, not on this website, and are covered by the club's membership privacy information there.

How long we keep it

We keep form messages only as long as we need to deal with them. Race results become part of the club's published results history.

Cookies and embedded content

This website does not set any cookies of its own, and doesn't use analytics or advertising trackers.

Some pages show maps from Google Maps and route maps from Strava, which set their own cookies. These only load if you choose Accept on the cookie banner; if you choose Reject, the site works as normal and those maps stay hidden. Your choice is remembered in your browser (not as a cookie), and you can change it at any time with Cookie settings at the bottom of every page. Google's and Strava's own privacy policies apply to their content.

The championship standings page shows the club's own standings app, which is run separately from this website and doesn't set cookies.

Your rights

Under UK data protection law you can ask to see the information we hold about you, and ask us to correct or delete it. Use the contact form and we'll respond within a month. If you're unhappy with how we've handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.
