This Privacy Policy explains how Fore-ward Thinking, a sole proprietorship operated from the State of Indiana, USA (“Fore-ward Thinking,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use Fore-ward Thinking, our AI golf coaching service (the “Service”). The Service is operated from the United States and is intended for users located in the United States.
This Policy applies to information we handle through the Service. It does not cover third-party services we use to operate the Service (listed in Section 6), which have their own privacy policies. By using the Service, you agree to this Policy and to our Terms of Service.
To generate coaching responses, the Service sends your relevant inputs (for example, your messages and pertinent profile/session data) to our AI provider, Anthropic, which processes them through its Claude API and returns a response. This processing is what powers Coach.
We use the following service providers to operate the Service. They process information on our behalf and are permitted to use it only to provide their services to us:
| Provider | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Supabase | Database and authentication (account, profile, and session data) |
| Anthropic | AI processing (generating coaching responses) |
| Stripe | Payment processing and subscription billing |
| Resend | Sending transactional and account emails |
| Vercel | Application hosting and delivery |
| Sentry | Error reporting and diagnostics |
We do not sell your personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We share information only:
We keep your information for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the Service. If you cancel your subscription, your Golfer DNA and account data remain so you can pick up where you left off if you return, until you ask us to delete them or close your account. We may retain limited information as required by law or for legitimate business purposes (such as billing records).
You can access and update your account information in the app, and you can delete your account. You may also request to access, correct, export, or delete your personal information by contacting us at support@forewardthinking.com. We will respond consistent with applicable law.
If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information we collect, to request access to or deletion of it, to request correction, and to not be discriminated against for exercising these rights.
We do not sell or share (for cross-context behavioral advertising) your personal information. The categories of personal information we collect are described in Section 2 (identifiers such as name and email; commercial information such as subscription status; internet/usage activity; and the golf-performance content you provide). To exercise your rights, contact support@forewardthinking.com.
The Service uses your browser’s local storage to keep you signed in (authentication tokens) and to cache session data for performance. We use privacy-friendly product analytics (Vercel Analytics) to understand aggregate usage. We do not use third-party advertising cookies.
We take reasonable measures to protect your information, including encryption in transit and database-level access controls (row-level security). However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
If we become aware of a security incident that affects your personal information, we will notify you and any relevant authorities as required by applicable law, without undue delay.
The Service is intended for adults and is not directed to children. Consistent with our Terms, you must be at least 18 to use the Service. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided us information, contact support@forewardthinking.com and we will delete it.
The Service is operated from, and your information is processed in, the United States. The Service is intended for users in the United States; if you access it from elsewhere, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local law.
We may update this Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the “Last updated” date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice within the Service.
