4 Children's Privacy & Junior Golfer Data

This section is important. The Service is designed for use by golf courses and coaches (adults). Junior Golfer accounts are created within programs managed by our Customers, who are responsible for obtaining appropriate parental consent.

4.1 Our Role

GoJrGolf acts as a data processor for Junior Golfer information — we store and process it on behalf of the golf course or coach (the Customer) who administers the program. The Customer is the responsible party with respect to junior data and guardian consent.

4.2 Minimum Data for Juniors

Junior Golfer registration in the app requires only a first name and a password. No date of birth, school, location, photo, or financial information is collected from Junior Golfers. Email address and guardian contact details are optional fields.

4.3 Customer Obligations Regarding Consent

Customers are required by our Terms & Conditions to obtain appropriate parental or guardian consent before enrolling any junior under the age of 13. We comply with the requirements of Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and, to the extent applicable, the U.S. Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) for programs serving U.S. participants.

4.4 Parental Access & Deletion

Parents or guardians who wish to review, correct, or delete their child's information may contact the golf course or coach who administers the program, or contact us directly at hello@gojrgolf.com. We will action verified requests promptly and within 30 days.

4.5 No Advertising to Juniors

We do not serve advertising to Junior Golfers, and we do not use Junior Golfer data for any purpose beyond delivering the program features within the Service.

5 Information Sharing & Disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or trade your information or Junior Golfer data to any third party. We share information only in the following limited circumstances:

5.1 Service Providers

We share data with trusted third-party providers who help us operate the Service, strictly on our instructions and under confidentiality obligations. These include:

5.2 Legal Requirements

We may disclose information if required to do so by law, court order, or governmental authority, or if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary to protect our rights, prevent fraud, or protect the safety of any person.

5.3 Business Transfers

In the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you by email and/or a prominent notice on the Service before your information becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

5.4 Aggregated Data

We may share aggregated, de-identified statistics (e.g., "courses using GoJrGolf run an average of X seasons per year") that cannot reasonably be used to identify any individual.

6 Third-Party Services

Stripe

Payment processing is handled entirely by Stripe. When you subscribe, you are directed to Stripe's secure checkout. GoJrGolf never receives or stores your full card number, CVV, or bank account details. Stripe is PCI DSS compliant. Please review Stripe's Privacy Policy for details on how they handle payment data.

No Third-Party Analytics or Advertising SDKs

We do not embed Google Analytics, Facebook Pixel, or any advertising SDK in the Service. Usage data is collected through our own server logs for operational purposes only.

7 Data Retention

We retain personal information only for as long as necessary to provide the Service and fulfil the purposes described in this Policy.

8 Security

We take the security of your data seriously and implement industry-standard safeguards, including:

No method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your information, we cannot guarantee absolute security. In the event of a data breach that is likely to result in risk to individuals, we will notify affected parties as required by applicable law.

9 Your Rights & Choices

Depending on your location and applicable law (including PIPEDA in Canada and GDPR for individuals in the European Economic Area), you may have the following rights:

RightWhat it means
Access Request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
Correction Request that we correct inaccurate or incomplete information. Most account details can be updated directly in the admin settings.

Data portability Export your program data (leaderboard, completions) in CSV format from the admin panel at any time.
Withdraw consent Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw it at any time. Withdrawal does not affect the lawfulness of prior processing.
Object / restrict Object to or request restriction of certain processing activities where permitted by law.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us at hello@gojrgolf.com. We will respond within 30 days of receiving a verified request. We may need to verify your identity before processing certain requests.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your privacy rights.

10 Cookies & Tracking

10.1 Essential Cookies

We use session cookies that are strictly necessary to operate the Service — specifically, to maintain your authenticated session in the admin panel and Jr. Golfer app. These cookies are essential and cannot be disabled without preventing the Service from functioning.

10.2 No Tracking or Advertising Cookies

We do not use advertising cookies, cross-site tracking pixels, or third-party analytics cookies. We do not participate in cookie-based retargeting or behavioural advertising networks.

10.3 Managing Cookies

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Blocking all cookies will prevent you from logging in to the Service. We do not respond to "Do Not Track" signals at this time, as we do not engage in the cross-site tracking that such signals are designed to prevent.

11 Cross-Border Data Transfers

GoJrGolf is based in Canada. If you access the Service from outside Canada, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in Canada or in other countries where our infrastructure providers operate (such as the United States).

Where we transfer data internationally, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place consistent with PIPEDA and, where applicable, GDPR requirements — such as standard contractual clauses or processing by providers in countries with adequate data protection laws.

12 Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable law. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email and/or by a notice in the admin panel at least 14 days before the changes take effect.

The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision. We encourage you to review this Policy periodically. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Policy.
