Speedgolf Baby ยป Privacy
Privacy Policy
Effective date: May 21, 2026
Speedgolf Baby is an independent speedgolf media studio. This policy explains what information we collect through speedgolf.baby, why we collect it, and how we handle it.
What We Collect
We collect personal information only when you choose to provide it. That may include:
- Your email address when you sign up for the newsletter, the Speedgolf Starter Pack, or other email updates.
- Your name, email address, and message if you contact us, reply to a newsletter, submit a story idea, or ask for a correction.
- Information you choose to include in a public-facing submission, such as a speedgolf story, result, photo credit, or event note.
Speedgolf Baby publishes editorial coverage of speedgolf. That coverage may include publicly relevant information about players, events, results, performances, quotes, photos, and links to source materials.
Why We Collect It
We use the information above to:
- Send newsletters, starter-pack materials, and related email updates you requested.
- Respond to questions, corrections, submissions, and reader feedback.
- Produce, verify, and improve speedgolf stories, guides, podcast pages, and other editorial work.
- Protect the site from spam, abuse, or low-quality submissions.
Our email forms are intended to connect to an email service provider such as SendFox. If you subscribe, that provider may process your email address, subscription status, consent record, and basic email engagement information such as opens, clicks, or unsubscribe activity.
You can unsubscribe from marketing or newsletter emails using the unsubscribe link in those emails. We may retain limited information needed to honor unsubscribe requests and keep suppression records.
Analytics and Technical Data
Speedgolf Baby is built to be lightweight and privacy-conscious. We do not use advertising trackers. We may use Cloudflare Web Analytics or similar privacy-focused analytics to understand basic site performance and readership patterns without building personal advertising profiles.
Standard hosting, security, and delivery systems may process technical information such as IP address, browser type, device information, referring pages, timestamps, and request logs. We use this information to operate, secure, and improve the site.
Podcast Players, Embeds, and External Links
Some pages may include podcast players, audio files, newsletter tools, video embeds, social links, payment links, or links to other websites. Those third-party services may collect information according to their own privacy policies when you interact with them.
Speedgolf Directory is a related project with its own privacy policy. If you use Speedgolf Directory to submit event, meetup, or tournament information, the Directory policy applies to that activity.
How We Share Information
We do not sell your personal information. We share information only in limited situations:
- With service providers that help us operate the site, send email, host audio, deliver pages, prevent spam, or maintain security.
- When you ask us to publish or attribute information as part of a story, submission, correction, or public-facing editorial item.
- If required to comply with applicable law, respond to lawful requests, or protect the rights and safety of Speedgolf Baby, readers, contributors, or others.
How Long We Keep Information
We keep personal information only as long as it is useful for the purpose it was collected, unless a longer period is needed for legal, security, archival, editorial, or unsubscribe-record reasons. Published editorial content may remain online as part of the public record unless we decide a correction, update, or removal is appropriate.
Children
Speedgolf Baby is intended for users 13 years of age and older. If you are under 13, please do not submit personal information through the site.
Your Choices
You may ask us to review, correct, or delete personal information you have submitted. You may also ask us to correct editorial information that is inaccurate. Some requests may be limited by legitimate editorial, legal, security, or archival reasons.
Changes to This Policy
If we update this policy, we will revise the effective date above and post the new version on this page.
Contact
For privacy questions, correction requests, or deletion requests, contact Speedgolf Baby through the email address or reply path you used to subscribe, submit, or correspond with us. If a dedicated contact address is added later, this page will be updated.
