Privacy Policy
Last updated: 5 July 2026
WattSpot (wattspot.cc) finds sweet-spot training climbs in your own ride history. It is a small, independent, non-commercial project. This page explains what data it touches and why.
What we store
- Account identity — the identifier and display name provided by the sign-in provider you use (your intervals.icu athlete ID and name, or the account identity of the sign-in service in use), so WattSpot can keep your data separate from other users'.
- intervals.icu access credentials — the token or API key that lets WattSpot read your ride data. Stored encrypted at rest; never shown to other users, never sent to your browser.
- Rider calibration — if you calibrate: total mass, aerodynamic drag (CdA) and rolling resistance (Crr) estimates.
- Cached ride streams — GPS, elevation and distance data for rides WattSpot has analysed, cached so repeat analyses don't re-fetch them from intervals.icu.
What we do with it
One thing: detect and rank sustained climbs in your rides for you. Your data is never sold, shared with third parties, or used for advertising or profiling. There are no analytics trackers on this site.
What we access at intervals.icu
WattSpot requests read-only access to your activities (for ride streams) and settings (for your FTP and weight). It never writes to your intervals.icu account and never requests more than it needs.
Cookies
One essential session cookie keeps you signed in, plus a short-lived cookie used only during sign-in for security. No tracking or third-party cookies.
Where it lives
WattSpot runs on Microsoft Azure. Credentials are encrypted at rest and the database is backed up routinely.
Your choices
- Revoke access any time from your intervals.icu settings — WattSpot immediately loses the ability to read your data.
- Delete your data — email the address below and your account row, credentials, calibration and cached rides will be removed.
Changes
If this policy changes materially, the "last updated" date above will change and signed-in users will be told on their next visit.
