This Privacy Policy explains what information EverythingBodybuilding.com ("we," "us," or "the site") collects, how we use it, and the choices you have. By using this site, you agree to the practices described here.
Information We Collect
Account information
If you create an account, we collect your email address, a username, and a password. Passwords are handled entirely by our authentication provider, Supabase — we never see or store your password in plain text.
User content
Anything you post — forum threads, replies, and likes — is stored against your account and is visible to other visitors as part of the normal operation of the forum.
Automatically collected information
Like most websites, our hosting provider (Vercel) automatically logs standard technical data for every visitor — such as IP address, browser type, device type, and pages visited — for security and performance purposes.
Cookies and local storage
We use a small amount of browser storage to keep you signed in between visits (managed by Supabase Auth). If we display advertising on this site (for example, through Google AdSense), our advertising partners may also set cookies to serve and measure ads — see "Advertising" below.
How We Use Your Information
- To create and secure your account, and let you sign in with your email or username
- To display your username and posts in the forum
- To send account-related email, such as confirming your email address
- To maintain the security, performance, and reliability of the site
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
Third-Party Service Providers
We rely on a small number of third-party services to run this site:
- Supabase — authentication and database hosting for accounts, forum threads, and posts.
- Vercel — website hosting and standard server logs.
Each of these providers processes data under their own privacy policies and security practices.
Advertising
This site may display ads served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this or other websites. You can learn more about how Google uses this data, and opt out of personalized advertising, at Google's Ads Policy page or via Google Ads Settings.
Data Retention
We keep your account information and content for as long as your account is active. If you'd like your account and associated data deleted, contact us using the email below and we'll process the request.
Your Rights and Choices
- You can update your username at any time from your profile (limited to once every 30 days).
- You can request a copy, correction, or deletion of your personal data by contacting us.
- You can delete your own forum threads and replies at any time.
Children's Privacy
This site is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it.
Security
We use industry-standard providers (Supabase and Vercel) that encrypt data in transit and follow modern security practices. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we work to protect your information appropriately.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last updated" date.
