Privacy Policy

TackTracker Cloud

The TackTracker Cloud offers live race tracking and race replays for yacht races, navigation rallies and other public sporting events. Such events take place on a well known course area where the location data is not of a sensitive nature.

During a live event, current tracker location data is available publicly from the internet. Any person or club publishing a live race is responsible for ensuring that consent is obtained from all participants.

Data of a sensitive or private nature must not be published to the TackTracker Cloud. This includes event published privately or "friends only".

Personally Identifiable Information (PII)

Competitors

The "Name" and "Details" fields are used to identify competitor boats on the map and in the competitor list. These fields should be populated with a subset of the competitor information already publicly available in race results and entry lists. Specifically, they should never contain email addresses or phone numbers.

User Accounts

Users may register an account on the TackTracker Cloud. For each account, we store name and email information as provided by the user. Names and email addresses are kept private and not disclosed to anyone else.

TackTracker Cloud Usernames are public and discoverable. A user may also contribute public information, such as Yacht Club and Country, to their profile if they wish.

From time to time, TackTracker may publish an email newsletter to registered TackTracker Cloud users. Users have the option to opt out of receiving such a newsletter if they wish. Users may also delete their account at any time. These actions are available from your profile page.

Third Party Processors

TackTracker hosts its systems and stores data on the Google Cloud Platform, in the US region.

If something's not right

If we discover material published to the TackTracker cloud that appears in breach of this policy, we reserve the right to remove it. We will contact the account holder to discuss the situation. Users found to be abusing the platform will be removed.
