Privacy Policy

Last Modified March 12, 2017

 

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.

We do NOT store in our systems any information related to our users’ name, golf habits, courses, GPS positioning, scoring trends, and related data; information about our users’ relationships with golf facilities; etc.

All the user’s golf course and app information is solely stored in the user device, and the user is responsible for the proper use of it.
