- Activity Data: Tournament predictions, sweepstakes entries, interaction with golf news content, favorite players, and notification preferences (tours you follow and score alert categories).
- Notifications: If you enable push alerts, we store a device push token, device type, and optional device name to deliver notifications; we also keep an in-app notification history (titles and messages about players and tournaments you follow).
- Inferred Data: Based on your interaction with specific players or equipment, we may infer preferences to personalize your feed.
- Device & Technical Data: IP address, unique device identifiers, and precise geolocation (only with your explicit opt-in for localized tournament features).

4. 2026 Transparency & Disclosures
- No Sale of Data: We do not "sell" your personal information for money. However, we may "share" aggregated or de-identified engagement metrics (such as how many users follow a tour or receive alerts) with partners and investors. We may also share data with partners (like equipment brands) to provide personalized offers. You can opt out of targeted sharing via Settings → Privacy & data or the in-app privacy controls.
- Push Notifications: Delivered through Apple, Google, and Expo push services when you grant permission. You can turn off alerts in device settings or adjust tours, players, and event types in Settings → Notifications.
- Automated Decision-Making: We use algorithms to determine sweepstakes winners based on prediction accuracy. You have the right to request a manual review of any automated scoring that impacts your eligibility for prizes.
- Global Privacy Control (GPC): We honor GPC signals. If your browser or device has GPC enabled, we automatically treat it as a request to opt-out of "sharing" for targeted advertising.

6. Data Retention & Security
We retain your data only as long as necessary. Sweepstakes entry data is held for 7 years to comply with tax and legal audit requirements. Notification history and push tokens are removed when you delete your data, delete your account, or unregister a device. Inactive accounts are flagged for deletion after 24 months of total inactivity.
