This
document discloses the privacy practices for www.droidcaddie.com web site and DroidCaddie
applications, (collectively “DroidCaddie Apps”, “We”,
and “Us”).
We
are providing this Privacy Policy to inform you (the “User”) of our policies
and procedures regarding the collection, use and disclosure of information
related to our DroidCaddie Application (the
"Service" or "Application").
By
visiting our website (the "Site"), or using the Service, you agree
that your personal information will be handled as described in this Policy
available here.
Description
of Products
DroidCaddie is a software application product made available for
download on an Android compatible mobile device. The DroidCaddie
App provides the user with distances to key landmarks on the golf course and
tracks the user’s playing statistics, in addition to offering other features
related to playing golf.
The
DroidCaddie App only connects to our Website to
download golf course information; it never uploads any user information from
his device, like GPS positions, user handicap or scores; all these bits of
information remain only in the user device.
The
Droidcaddie Website provides the user with
information about the application usage, shows golf courses available for
download in the Droidcaddie App and offers general
and descriptive information about the service.
To
utilize the Service, The User is individually responsible for:
1. Providing all necessary hardware equipment
required to use the DroidCaddie App and/or DroidCaddie Website, including but not limited to a
Smartphone, Tablet, Computer, or “Wearable” internet-enabled device.
2. Providing internet connection required
to use the DroidCaddie App and/or DroidCaddie
Website including but not limited to cell phone data services.
3. Paying any costs and fees, whether
one-time or ongoing, related to their own provision of items referenced above
in (1) or (2), including those specific to service contracts of individual cell
phone coverage carriers. The user’s normal applicable carrier rates and fees
apply.
4. Ensuring user device is properly secured
with the commonly used mechanisms like physical device protection, authentication,
authorization, proper wireless network management, etc…
Information
Collection
We
collect information in the following ways:
1. We collect information from all
end-users of the Site: the domain name and host from which you access the
Internet and the Internet address of the site from which you direct-linked to
ours; the date and time you access the Site and pages you visit. Please note
that when the user downloads a golf course information to his device from the DroidCaddie application this is transformed into a page website
download, and so the information above is collected.
2. The application saves user statistics
and GPS positioning information for the sole purpose of storing golf playing
tracking, but this information is solely stored in the user’s mobile device
where the application is installed. We never send, use or store this
information outside the user’s mobile device. It is the user responsibility to properly
store, share, backup or delete such information from the device database.
3. If –optionally- you request for a new golf
course to be mapped using our site, we will ask for your email address, for the
sole purpose of you being notified when that course is available.
Cookies

internal business operations and to respond to your support requests in a

We
do NOT store in our systems any information related to our users’ name, golf

All
the user’s golf course and app information is solely stored in the user device,
