This Privacy Policy explains how SpinLimiter (“we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, stores and shares personal information when you use our website and social fantasy golf experience at spinlimiter.com (the “Service”). We are committed to protecting your privacy and handling your data in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR) and the Data Protection Act 2018.
1. Who we are
The data controller responsible for your personal data is SpinLimiter. For any privacy-related questions, contact us at [email protected] or by phone on +44 20 7946 1188.
2. What data we collect
Depending on how you use the Service, we may process the following categories of information:
- Account and profile data: name or display name, email address, password (stored in hashed form), country or region, date of birth or age confirmation where required, and preferences you set in your account.
- Usage and technical data: IP address, browser type, device identifiers, approximate location derived from IP, pages viewed, referring URLs, timestamps and similar analytics generated as you browse or use the Service.
- Communications: messages you send us (for example support requests), feedback, and records of correspondence.
- Cookie and similar technologies data: as described in our Cookie Policy.
We do not ask you to submit special category data (such as health information). Please do not send us sensitive personal data unless we explicitly request it.
3. How we use your data and lawful bases
We use personal data only where we have a valid lawful basis under UK GDPR. These include:
- Contract: to register and maintain your account, provide fantasy golf features, scoring, leaderboards and in-Service communications you expect.
- Legitimate interests: to secure the Service, prevent fraud and abuse, improve performance and usability, analyse aggregated usage trends, and inform you about similar products where permitted and you have not opted out.
- Legal obligation: where we must comply with applicable law or respond to lawful requests from authorities.
- Consent: where required for certain cookies or marketing communications; you may withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal.
4. Marketing
We may send promotional emails about SpinLimiter where we have your consent or another lawful basis. You can unsubscribe using the link in any marketing email or by contacting support.
5. Sharing and processors
We do not sell your personal data. We may share data with trusted service providers who assist us (for example hosting, email delivery, analytics, or customer chat), strictly under contracts that require them to protect your data and use it only on our instructions. Some providers may be located outside the UK; where we transfer personal data internationally, we use appropriate safeguards such as the UK International Data Transfer Agreement or addendum, or adequacy regulations, as applicable.
6. Retention
We keep personal data only for as long as needed for the purposes above, including legal, accounting and reporting requirements. When data is no longer required, we delete or anonymise it securely.
7. Security
We implement appropriate technical and organisational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental loss, unauthorised access, alteration or disclosure. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure; we encourage you to use a strong, unique password and keep your login details confidential.
8. Your rights
Under UK data protection law you may have the right to: access your personal data; rectify inaccurate data; erase data in certain circumstances; restrict processing; object to processing based on legitimate interests or for direct marketing; data portability where processing is based on consent or contract and automated; and withdraw consent where processing is consent-based.
To exercise these rights, contact [email protected]. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) at ico.org.uk.
9. Children
The Service is intended for adults aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect personal data from anyone under 18. If you believe we have collected data from a minor, please contact us and we will take steps to delete it.
10. Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date at the top will change when we do. Material changes may be communicated via the Service or by email where appropriate.
