Who we are

This site is run by Samuel Harrison Racing Ltd (“we”, “us”), which is the controller of the personal information described here.

Questions about this notice, or any request about your information, go to support@samuelharrisonracing.com.

What we collect, and why

Enquiries
When you use a contact, coaching or partnership form: your name, email address, and anything else you choose to tell us — phone number, car, experience, company, message. We use it only to reply and to discuss what you asked about. Lawful basis: our legitimate interest in answering enquiries, and taking steps you have asked for before entering a contract.
Coaching clients
If you are a coaching client, the portal holds your account details (name, email, phone), the profile and questionnaire answers you give (car, series, experience, goals), your bookings, the messages between you and your coach, the data and video files you or your coach upload — lap telemetry and in-car footage — and the notes, feedback and actions written about your driving. We use it to provide the coaching you signed up for. Lawful basis: performance of our contract with you.
Emails
We send account emails (invitations, password resets, notices that your details changed) and booking and message notifications. These are part of the service and are not marketing.
Security logs
Like every website, our hosting records technical details of requests — IP address, browser, the page asked for — to keep the site running and to detect and stop attacks. Lawful basis: our legitimate interest in keeping the site and your data secure.

We do not sell personal information, use it for advertising, or make automated decisions about you.

Who else sees it

We use the following service providers to run the site. They act on our instructions and may not use your information for their own purposes.

Supabase
Database, sign-in and file storage for the coaching portal.
Vercel
Hosting — every page and form passes through it.
Backblaze B2 / Microsoft OneDrive
Storage for session video footage.
Google (Gmail) / Resend
Delivery of the emails the site sends.
Esri, jsDelivr, unpkg
Map imagery and globe data on the calendar page and the telemetry view are loaded by your browser directly from these services, which therefore receive your IP address.

We may also disclose information where the law requires it, or to protect our legal rights.

Outside the UK

Some of these providers store or access data outside the UK, including in the European Economic Area and the United States. Where they do, the transfer is covered by UK adequacy regulations (for example for the EEA, or the UK–US data bridge for certified companies) or by the ICO's International Data Transfer Agreement or Addendum.

How long we keep it

Enquiries
As long as it takes to deal with the enquiry, then deleted unless you become a client.
Client records
For as long as you are a client. When coaching ends your account is closed to sign-in but kept, so your history is there if you come back — ask and we will delete it instead.

Keeping it safe

Everything is sent over encrypted connections. Portal files are kept in private storage and reached only through time-limited links issued to the account they belong to, and the database only lets each client see their own records.

Your rights

You can ask for a copy of the information we hold about you, and ask us to correct it, delete it, restrict how we use it, object to how we use it, or send it to you or someone else in a portable format. Email support@samuelharrisonracing.com; we will answer within one month. There is no charge.

If you are unhappy with how we have handled your information, you can complain to the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk or on 0303 123 1113 — though we would like the chance to put it right first.

Cookies

This site sets no advertising or analytics cookies, and nothing that tracks you across other sites. The only cookies it uses are the ones it needs to work:

sb-…-auth-token
Keeps you signed in to the coaching portal. Lasts 30 days if you tick “keep me signed in”, otherwise until you close your browser.
shr-keep-signed-in
Remembers that “keep me signed in” choice. 30 days.
shr-intro-seen
Stops the homepage intro animation playing again every time you come back to the homepage during one visit. Deleted when you close your browser.
shr-admin, onedrive_state
Sign-in for the site operator's console only. 8 hours and 10 minutes.

Because these are needed for the site to do what you ask of it, they do not require consent. You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but the portal cannot keep you signed in without them.

Changes

When this notice changes, the date at the top changes with it. If a change affects how we use information we already hold about you, we will tell you directly.
