Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy sets forth the terms on which DYSports, LLC (“DYSports”, “we”, “us”, “our”) collects, uses, and otherwise processes personal information from users of, participants in, or visitors to, the Site, Shop, Sporting Events, and other Services provided by DYSports which reference our Terms of Use. This Privacy Policy is incorporated into and forms a part of the Terms of Use (“Terms”), together with all other terms and policies linked or otherwise referenced within the Terms or our Privacy Policy. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings provided in the Terms.

Please read this Privacy Policy carefully before using our Services. We allow users to agree to our Terms by accessing or using the Services, or by signing, checking a box, or clicking a button indicating acceptance of the Terms or of a registration form, addendum, invoice, and/or other written agreement(s) between DYSports and you which incorporates this Privacy Policy or the Terms by reference. By indicating your acceptance of the Terms, you agree to be bound by the Terms (which include this Privacy Policy).

We may revise and update this Privacy Policy at any time in accordance with the Terms. The “Last Updated” date provided at the top of this page indicates the date on which we posted the most recent version of this Privacy Policy. If you have registered for an account to use our Services, we may also notify you of changes to this Privacy Policy by sending a notice to the primary e-mail address specified in your account. We encourage you to review our Privacy Policy whenever you visit the Services to make sure that you understand how your Personal Information is being processed.

DEFINITION OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

As used in this Privacy Policy, "Personal Information" means information that can be used to identify an individual, the processing of which is subject to applicable data privacy laws. The term “Personal Information” can include information such as your name and e-mail address, but can also include indirect identifiers such as your IP address or device identifier. The term “Personal Information” does not include aggregate information, which is data we collect about the use of the Services or categories of such users unless it is linked with your other Personal Information.

DATA THAT WE COLLECT

To use our Services, you may need to submit, or we may collect, Personal Information of various Participants in our Sporting Events, as well as parents of Participants, team coaches, and attendees. Our purposes for using or otherwise processing the foregoing Personal Information are described in the section titled “Our Uses of Personal Information” below. By providing Personal Information to DYSports for processing, you affirm that you have provided all notices and obtained all consents necessary under applicable data protection laws to permit DYSports to process such Personal Information for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy.

Generally, you may provide us with two categories of data: User Data and Services Usage Data. The types of information that you may provide in each category, along with the technologies that we use to collect such information, are generally described in the sub-sections below.

User Data

“User Data” is the Personal Information that you provide when you register Participants for our Sporting Events, sign up to receive our Services, send us messages in connection with the Services, or submit Personal Information for processing by the Services. Any User Data that we receive about you is provided directly by you, or on your behalf, on a voluntary basis. We describe the most common types of User Data that you may expect to provide below:

• Use of the Services. You will be required to provide Personal Information to use or access certain tools and features of the Services. If you register for an account for our Services, you may be required to provide us with Personal Information such as your contact information, including your full name and e-mail address. Additionally, our Service Providers (as defined below) may collect and process additional Personal Information when you use or interact with the functions that they provide. For example, DYSports Apparel—our Shop which offers DYSports-themed gear and apparel—is supported by service providers; those service providers will collect Personal Information such as payment information when you enter it into the Services in connection with a transaction in order to process payments for our products.
• We may also collect and process analytical and statistical data regarding your use of our Services, such as bug/crash reports, to enable us to maintain, develop, and improve the features and performance of our Services, and otherwise for the purposes described in this policy.
• Communications with DYSports. When you send e-mail messages to DYSports, we may receive Personal Information about you, and may use the information that you provide to respond to your communication and/or as described in this Privacy Policy. We may also archive this information and/or use it for future communications with you where we are permitted by law to do so.
• Automatically Collected Information: When you visit, use, and interact with the Site(s), we automatically collect data about those visits, uses, or interactions. We may use analytics service providers, including Google Analytics, to collect information regarding visitors to our Site(s), such as their behavior on our Site(s) or information about their demographics. For more information about Google Analytics, see https://www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/. You may opt out of Google Analytics by visiting https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout. Information collected may depend on the type of device you use and its settings; however, the types of information that we collect include the following:
  • Usage and Engagement Data: Metadata about your activities on and use of the Site(s), such as the types of content that you view or engage with, the features you use, and the actions you take, as well as your time zone, country, the dates and times of access, user agent and version, type of computer or mobile device, computer connection, your IP address.
  • Log Data: Information that your browser automatically sends whenever you visit our Site(s), such as your IP address, browser type and settings, the date and time of your request, and how you interacted with our Site(s).
  • Device Information: Name and model of your device, the operating system used, and (if you access the Services via a web browser) the browser that you are using.

You are responsible for verifying the accuracy of the Personal Information you submit to the Services, whether on your own behalf or behalf of a third party, and ensuring that any Personal Information that you provide (directly or indirectly) is kept up to date for the purposes for which you provide it. Inaccurate information may affect your ability to use the Services, the information you receive when using the Services, and our ability to contact you.

Some Personal Information that you submit can be removed at any time upon your request. Note, however, that some Personal Information is necessary to use our Services. As such, even if you remove all Personal Information from your account, we may retain some of your Personal Information to comply with our legal obligations or as necessary to provide the Services to you.

Services Usage Data

We, as well as our Service Providers (defined below), automatically track and collect certain types of information about visits to and use of our Site (“Services Usage Data”), such as your IP address, geolocation data, device identification, browser type, and operating system, as well as the referring or exit pages, the page(s) requested, and cookie information. We do not treat Services Usage Data as Personal Information if it does not identify you and is not directly linked to your Personal Information.

We may use information about you to create and use anonymous, pseudonymous, statistical, or aggregated data (collectively, “Aggregated Data”). Such Aggregated Data does not allow another party to identify you or any other specific user, and is not Personal Information subject to this Privacy Policy.

HOW WE COLLECT PERSONAL INFORMATION

In addition to Personal Information that you submit directly to our Site or Services, or in communications with us, we collect Personal Information from the following sources:

• Sporting Event/Camp Attendees. We may collect Personal Information relating from attendees on site at the Sporting Events and Camps that we organize, manage, hold, or otherwise administer as part of providing the Services, such as Participants, parents or guardians of Participants, coaches, referees, administrators, or volunteers at the Sporting Event or Camp.
• Service Providers. We may receive Personal Information that you submit directly to our Service Providers in connection with registration for Sporting Events or Camps. For example, as part of the registration and administration process, we may share with, or receive from, our Service Providers the Personal Information submitted by or on behalf of Participants in connection with their participation in the Sporting Event or Camp (such as name, birthdate, height, addresses, phone numbers, email addresses, or other demographic data), as applicable.

All such Personal Information is processed for the purposes described in “OUR USES OF PERSONAL INFORMATION” below.

Cookies; Do-Not-Track Signals

We, and our Service Providers, use a variety of online analytics products that automatically deploy cookies, pixel tags, local storage, and other technologies to collect information through our Services to help us with analyzing how users use our Services.  A “cookie” is a piece of data sent to your browser by a website you visit. Depending on the type of information collected, cookies may constitute Personal Information. Depending on your device specifications and settings, you may be able to configure your browser to accept all cookies, to reject all cookies, or to notify you whenever a cookie is offered so that you can decide each time whether to accept it. Note that refusing a cookie may in some cases preclude you from using, or negatively affect the display or function of, a website or certain areas or features of a website.

Our use of cookies and other automatic technologies falls into the following categories:

• Strictly Necessary: Technologies that allow you to access our Services and use our features, and tools that help us identify irregular site behavior and prevent fraudulent activity or improve security.
• Functionality: Technologies that collect information about your use of our Services, including measuring, understanding, and reporting on your usage of the Services. We may use these cookies to measure the effectiveness of that content, including information about what content was shown, how often or how long it was shown, when and where it was shown, and what actions, if any, you took on the content.
• Performance: Technologies that store information or provide access to information that is already stored on your device, such whether you have logged into our site previously.
• Marketing/Advertising: Technologies that collect information about your use of our Services, including measuring, understanding, and reporting on your usage of the Services. We may use these cookies to personalize your experience with our Services, and to deliver content and product and service offerings relevant to your interests, including targeted offers and ads through our Site, third-party sites, and via email (with your consent where required by law).

Opt-Outs

You may be able to opt out of providing certain categories of Personal Information to us by following the instructions below. You may stop or restrict the placement of cookies on your device or remove them as your browser or device permits. Note that some browsers have incorporated “Do Not Track” (DNT) features that can send a signal to the websites you visit indicating you do not wish to be tracked. As of the date on which this Privacy Policy was last updated, however, there is no standardized DNT signal. As such, our Services do not currently respond to browser DNT signals.  If you do not wish to be tracked, you may be able to opt out by selecting certain options in the settings of the browser or device that you use to access the Services, or by using third-party applications and programs.

If you have any questions about viewing or updating information we have on file about you, please contact us using the methods provided at the end of this page.

SHARING OF PERSONAL INFORMATION

DYSports does not process the Personal Information that you provide except as required to provide the Services to you, as specified in this Privacy Policy, with your consent, or as otherwise permitted by law. A non-exhaustive list of examples of our sharing of Personal Information are described below:

• From time to time, we may share Personal Information with consultants, vendors, and service providers (“Service Providers”) who assist us in providing the Services and related services. These Service Providers may include vendors and suppliers that provide us with technology, services, and/or other content related to the operation and maintenance of the Services. Our Service Providers may access the categories of Personal Information specified in the section “User Data” to the extent necessary to provide their products or services to us.

We may provide limited Personal Information to these entities related to their collaborations with us on promotions, events, special offers, and other joint projects. The use of the Personal Information that you submit by such third parties may also be governed by these third parties’ privacy policies.
• DYSports may share Personal Information submitted under this Privacy Policy with government authorities in the scenarios described below. In such cases, we reserve the right to raise or waive any legal objection or right available to us at our discretion:
  • if we are required to do so by law, regulation, or legal process (such as a court order or subpoena);
  • in response to requests by government agencies, such as law enforcement authorities; and/or
  • if we have a good faith belief that the disclosure is necessary or appropriate to comply with law or legal process.
• We also may share Personal Information when we believe it is appropriate to investigate, prevent, or take action regarding illegal or suspected illegal activities; to protect and defend the rights, property, or safety of DYSports, the Services, our users, or others; to prevent and protect DYSports and its users from fraudulent, abusive, unlawful, or unauthorized use of the Services; to otherwise enforce our rights and agreements; and otherwise in connection with our Terms and other agreements with you, in each case as permitted by applicable laws.

PROTECTING PERSONAL INFORMATION

DYSports uses commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards to protect Personal Information against accidental or unlawful destruction or loss, or unauthorized disclosure, access, or use. You should be aware, however, that "perfect security" does not exist on the Internet or in any method of storage. To protect the confidentiality of the Personal Information that you submit, you must keep the Personal Information associated with your account confidential and not disclose it to any other person. You are responsible for all uses of the Services by any person using your account.

YOUR RESPONSIBILITIES; OPTING OUT OF COMMUNICATIONS

You acknowledge and agree that you, not DYSports, are solely responsible for the accuracy, quality, integrity, legality, reliability, appropriateness, and intellectual property ownership or right to use of all Personal Information that you submit, and for ensuring that any Personal Information that you provide is kept up to date for the purposes for which you provide it. Inaccurate information may affect your ability to use the Services, the information you receive when using the Services, and our ability to contact you.

We only send promotional e-mails to persons who have provided their e-mail addresses directly to us and who have consented to receive communications from us. If you do not wish to receive promotional e-mails from DYSports, you may opt out by contacting us using the information provided at the bottom of the page, or by clicking the “unsubscribe” link at the bottom of each promotional e-mail. Please note that even if you opt out of receiving e-mails from DYSports, you may still receive relationship e-mails from us, including responses to e-mails that you send to us, notices of updates or changes to our policies and procedures, or other messages relating to your account or your use of the Services.

This Privacy Policy does not address, and DYSports is not responsible for, the policies and practices of third parties with respect to Personal Information that you disclose to such third parties through or in connection with your use of the Services. This includes any third party operating a site or service to which the Services may link. The inclusion of a link to a third party’s site, services, products, or other offerings in the Services does not imply endorsement of the linked third-party site or service by DYSports.

INFORMATION RETENTION AND DELETION                                                       

Personal Information that we collect will be processed in accordance with this Privacy Policy and our internal retention guidelines. We will retain the Personal Information that you provide for as long as necessary to fulfill the purpose(s) for which it was collected, such as to enable or improve your access to or use of the Services. You may submit a request to review or delete the Personal Information that you submit to our Services for processing by contacting us using the contact information provided in the “Contact Us” section below.
