2. Information We Collect
Information You Provide Directly
When you contact us through our contact form or by email, we collect your name, email address, and the content of your message. When you join a waitlist for one of our apps, we collect your email address and the app you expressed interest in. We do not collect payment information directly — any purchases are handled by third-party payment processors.

When you visit our website, we may collect standard technical information including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, and pages visited. This information is used to understand how our site is used and to improve the experience for all visitors. We may use cookies or similar technologies for this purpose.
Golf Performance Data (Apps)
Our applications are designed to help you track and improve your golf game. Depending on the app, this may include shot data, putting statistics, tempo training sessions, and course information. Where possible, this data is stored locally on your device. Where cloud sync is offered, data is transmitted securely and stored in encrypted form.

5. Third-Party Services
Our applications may integrate with third-party services including Google's Gemini AI for coaching features and weather data providers for performance correlation. These services have their own privacy policies, and we encourage you to review them. We only share the minimum data necessary for these integrations to function.
