Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 6, 2026

1. Information We Collect

When you create an account and use The Trail Golf, we collect the following: • Phone number (required): used to sign you in and verify your identity by text message (SMS). • Username (required): the name shown to you and other players. • Village (required): the community or area you play in, used for social and leaderboard features. • Backup email address (optional): if you choose to add one, so we can help you recover your account. • Date of birth (optional): if you choose to add it, used to confirm you meet the minimum age and for age-based features. • Golf scores and round data you enter in the app. • Friend code, generated for you so other players can connect with you. Location (only while you are using the app) is used on your device to show current weather for where you are. Your location itself is not stored. When you save a round played that day, the weather conditions at that time and place (temperature, wind, and general conditions) may be stored with that round, so we can show course conditions and personal insights later. If you choose to rate a round after playing it, we collect your rating, any course or game tags you select, and any note you add. This feedback is kept private and is used, together with other players' feedback, in aggregate to improve courses and the app. It is never shown to other players. We do not collect your contacts, and we do not sell your personal information.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use your information to: • Create and secure your account and sign you in by text message. • Display your player profile, scores, and statistics. • Connect you with other players and power leaderboards. • Manage your subscription and free trial. • Contact you about your account or important changes to the app. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with any third party for their own marketing.

3. Where Your Data Is Stored

Your account and profile information, including your phone number, username, village, and any backup email or date of birth you add, is stored in our secure cloud database, not just on your phone. This lets you keep your data if you change or reset your device, and powers features like friends and leaderboards. Some information (such as your in-progress round) is also kept on your device for convenience.

4. Service Providers We Share Data With

To run The Trail Golf, we use trusted third-party companies that process some of your data on our behalf: • Twilio: sends the text message (SMS) we use to verify your phone number when you sign in. Twilio receives your phone number for this purpose. • RevenueCat: helps us manage subscriptions and free trials and confirm your subscription status. RevenueCat receives a limited identifier tied to your subscription. • Apple App Store: processes all subscription payments. We never see or store your payment card details. These providers are only permitted to use your data to provide their service to us.

5. Subscriptions

Subscription payments are processed by Apple through the App Store. The Trail Golf does not collect or store your payment information. You can manage or cancel your subscription in your Apple ID settings. We use RevenueCat to confirm whether your subscription or free trial is active.

6. Your Right to Delete Your Account

You can request deletion of your account at any time. When you do, we permanently remove or anonymize the personal information we hold about you in our cloud database, including your phone number, username, village, and any backup email or date of birth, so that it can no longer identify you. Some records may be kept in anonymized form for statistics or as required by law. To delete your account or request deletion of your data, use the in-app option under the Profile tab, or contact us at support@thetrailgolf.com.

7. Children's Privacy

The Trail Golf is intended for users 18 years of age and older. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 18.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any significant changes through the app and update the effective date above. Continued use of The Trail Golf after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
