We use industry-standard technology, including but not limited to data encryption and physical access controls to safeguard the personal information we collect from you.

SHARING PERSONAL INFORMATION

We may disclose your personal information to a third party for a business purpose.

YOUR RIGHTS AND CHOICES

Your privacy choices are important to us and we would like to make sure you are fully aware of all of your data protection rights. Every user is entitled to the following:

The right to access – You have the right to request Unknown Golf disclose what personal information it collects, uses, discloses or sells. Once we receive and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will disclose to you:

•   Our business or commercial purpose for collecting that personal information.

•   The categories of third parties with whom we share that personal information.

Unknown Golf does not sell your personal information for monetary compensation. However, as described in this Privacy Policy, we may allow certain third parties, like golf venues, obtain your personal information to provide services to you. Under some circumstances a transfer of personal information to a third party without monetary consideration may be considered a “sale” under California law.

To submit an access request, please email privacy@unknowngolf.com

The right to rectification – You have the right to request that Unknown Golf correct any information you believe is inaccurate. You also have the right to request Unknown Golf to complete the information you believe is incomplete. Our correction and completion of information is limited to personal data collected over the last 12 months and does not include game, tournament, or challenge data or information.    

To submit a rectification request, please email privacy@unknowngolf.com.

The right to data portability – You have the right to request that Unknown Golf transfer the personal information data that we have collected to directly to you under certain conditions.

The right to erasure – California residents also have the right to request the deletion of their personal information collected or maintained by Unknown Golf. Once we receive a request for deletion and confirm your verifiable consumer request, we will (to the extent required by law) delete the personal information we hold about you as of the date of your request from our records. In some cases, deletion may be accomplished through de-identification of the information. If you choose to delete your personal information, you may not be able to use certain Site functions that require your personal information to operate.

If you wish to make a request for information or to delete your personal information, or for any questions about our privacy practices and compliance with California law, please contact us via email at privacy@unknowngolf.com.

We may deny your deletion request if retaining the information is necessary for us or our service providers to:

  1. Complete the transaction for which we collected the personal information or take actions reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you.
  2. Detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, or prosecute those responsible for such activities.
  3. Debug products to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality.
  4. Exercise free speech, ensure the right of another consumer to exercise their free speech rights, or exercise another right provided for by law.
  5. Comply with the California Electronic Communications Privacy Act (Cal. Penal Code § 1546 seq.).
  6. Enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with consumer expectations based on your relationship with us.
  7. Comply with a legal obligation.
  8. Make other internal and lawful uses of that information that are compatible with the context in which you provided it.

Verifying Requests Access, Data Portability, and Deletion Rights

Only you or a person registered with the California Secretary of State that you authorize to act on your behalf, may make a verifiable consumer request related to your personal information. You may also make a verifiable consumer request on behalf of your minor child. To help protect your privacy and maintain security, we will take steps to verify your identity before granting you access to your personal information or complying with your request.

You may only make a verifiable consumer request for access or data portability twice within a 12-month period. The verifiable consumer request must:

•   Provide sufficient information that allows us to reasonably verify you are the person about whom we collected personal information or an authorized representative. In addition, if you ask us to provide you with specific pieces of personal information, we will require you to sign a declaration under penalty of perjury that you are the consumer whose personal information is the subject of the request. If you designate an authorized agent to make an access, deletion or opt-out of sale request on your behalf (a) we may require you to provide the authorized agent written permission to do so, and (b) for access and deletion requests, we may require you to verify your own identity directly with us.

•   Describe your request with sufficient detail that allows us to properly understand, evaluate, and respond to it.

We cannot respond to your request or provide you with personal information if we cannot verify your identity or authority to make the request and confirm the personal information relates to you. Making a verifiable consumer request does not require you to create an account with us. We will only use personal information provided in a verifiable consumer request to verify the requestor’s identity or authority to make the request.

If you make a request, we have 45 days to respond to you.

We will not discriminate against you for exercising your rights. This means we will not deny you service, charge different prices or rates, provide a different level of service, or suggest that you might receive a different price or level of quality for service. Please know, if you ask us to delete your information or stop transferring your information, it may impact your experience using our Site.
