Privacy Policy
Last Revised: April 2026
What we do: Forge is an action-first relationship coach that turns a short voice or text share into one clear step you can do today. Forge analyzes your input to suggest a tailored challenge and tracks recent effort so you can see momentum over time. Because analysis of your input is fundamental to delivering the service, we cannot provide Forge without performing this type of automated processing. Opting out of this analysis would be equivalent to opting out of the service itself.
We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting it through this Privacy Policy. “Forge,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Forge. “You” and “your” refer to a visitor to the website at forgebonds.com or a user of the Forge product.
