Privacy Policy
We believe clarity matters in business and in how personal information is handled. This notice explains what information is involved when you explore The Ryder Method website and how Ryder uses, safeguards and shares it. Coaching relationships and The Ryder App may involve additional information and agreements.
This page is a draft under legal review. It will be finalized once Ryder’s legal details are confirmed.
Who is responsible and what this covers
The Ryder Method™ is offered by Ryder. The exact legal entity responsible for personal information, its registered address and its privacy contact are being confirmed and will be named here before this notice takes effect.
This notice covers the public website, including its free educational material and The Bottleneck Test. It does not describe signed coaching engagements or The Ryder App in detail; those relationships may involve business information you choose to bring and are covered by their own agreements and notices.

Information involved when you interact with Ryder
Browsing the website
Browsing involves only the technical data and visitor statistics described above.
The Bottleneck Test and educational material
The test gives an indicative result from the answers you enter. How those answers are stored will be described here once verified against the live test. Your result is educational, not a professional diagnosis.
Inquiries and applications
When you submit a contact form or coaching application, Ryder receives the contact details, inquiry or application answers, and consent you provide. The submission also includes its time, page and available referral or campaign details. Make passes these submissions to HighLevel for Ryder to respond and manage follow-up. Application contact consent does not subscribe you to the Ryder Times.
Booking a Clarity Call
The booking calendar is embedded from HighLevel. When you use it, HighLevel receives the contact and appointment details you enter and the consent choices you make. The embedded service may use its own cookies or browser storage to support booking; those are separate from Lovable’s cookie-free visitor analytics.
Coaching clients and The Ryder App
Signed clients and App users may share business information such as plans, KPIs and team details. How that information is handled will be set out in the applicable service agreement and an App-specific notice. This website notice makes no promises about App processing.
How information is used
Website information is used to run and protect the site, remember your choices and understand how the site can be improved.
Information you submit is also used to respond to inquiries and applications, arrange calls and honor your communication preferences.
Marketing and communications
The Ryder Times signup asks for separate, optional email consent before sending the Ryder Times and marketing emails. Signup information is sent through Make to HighLevel, including your email address, consent wording and version, submission time, page and available campaign details. Giving a phone number will never on its own count as agreement to receive text messages.
SMS and text messaging
Ryder Consulting Group may send text messages, including MMS with short audio from Billy Fowler, about scheduled calls, such as booking confirmations and reminders, only to people who opt in when they book.
Message frequency varies, typically 1–3 messages per booked call. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to opt out at any time, or HELP for help. Consent to receive texts is not a condition of purchase.
Mobile phone numbers and SMS opt-in consent are not shared with or sold to third parties or affiliates for marketing purposes.
Retention and security
Information is kept only as long as its purpose needs. Retention criteria for each category will be confirmed before this notice takes effect.
Ryder and its providers use reasonable safeguards. No website or service can promise absolute security.
Your privacy requests
You can change optional analytics at any time with Cookie Preferences in the website footer.
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct or delete information, or to object to some uses. A working channel for these requests is being set up and will be listed here before this notice takes effect.
Children
The website is meant for business owners and is not directed to children.
Changes to this notice
When this notice is approved, it will show its effective date, the responsible legal entity and a tested contact. Meaningful changes will be noted on this page.
