Example: Exported Data

You want to protect your data and so do we.  Should you feel the need to leave us, we want you to have all your stuff that you worked hard to track.

Now you can export all your data through the Settings>Log Importer & Exporter. We looked at many compression algorithms and formats and settled on a zipped Comma Separated Values (.csv) which can be easily opened with Microsoft Excel™ or NotePad™. Windows, Mac and Linux users should have no problems opening these up and exploring their data.

Furthermore, even though your log data is backed up, encrypted, and sent to three datacenters around the world daily for safe keeping, we thought you might want to have a backup of your own… automatically. Now, by clicking the “Backup Quarterly by Email” check box, we will email you a compressed copy of your log every three months to provide even greater peace of mind.

To edit your settings, visit  Settings which can be found under the  icon in the menu.

NOTE: Backups are sent on the first day of a new quarter from auto_backup(at)runpartner.com. Make sure your spam filters do not reject them.

The power of the internet is not just being able to access your data from anywhere. The power is searching all those runs/comments/competitions/friends instantly to glean epiphanies or combat boredom.

Now search using all features listed on the search pages and from the many View All links throughout the site.

• Log Comments: All RunPartners, Your Private Comments
