Privacy | Healthylete

The short version

No ads. No selling your data. No third-party trackers. No Google Analytics, no ad networks, nothing like that.
Everything stays on our own server. The basic analytics we collect live on the same server that runs this site.
We only collect what helps us make the site better for teen athletes.

What we collect

When you visit, our own software records some standard web information so we can see what's popular and fix what's broken:

Pages you view and when, so we know which articles and recipes are useful.
Rough location (city/region and country), worked out from your internet (IP) address.
Your device basics — browser, screen size, and language — so the site looks right on your phone or laptop.
Where you came from (for example a search or a link), if your browser shares it.
A random visitor ID saved in your browser so we can tell a returning visitor from a new one. It is not your name and we can't identify you personally from it.

We do not ask for or collect your name, email, address, or any account — there's nothing to sign up for.

Why we collect it

Just to understand what's helpful and improve the site — which topics to write more about, what's confusing, and whether everything works on different devices.

Your choices

Do Not Track: if your browser sends a “Do Not Track” signal, our visitor beacon turns itself off automatically.
Clear it anytime: clearing your browser's site data for healthylete.com removes the random visitor ID.
Block it: a content blocker or private window stops the analytics beacon entirely. The site still works fully.

A note for parents & younger athletes

Healthylete is written for student-athletes around ages 13–18. We deliberately keep data collection minimal and first-party, with no advertising and no third-party tracking. If you're a parent or guardian and want visitor data related to your household removed, reach out and we'll help.
