Effective date: April 15, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Outing.golf (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information about you when you use our website and service. By using Outing.golf, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

1. Information We Collect

We collect the following types of information:

• Account information — your name and email address when you create an account or sign in with Google.
• Trip and outing data — information you enter while planning a trip, including destination preferences, budget ranges, available dates, course and lodging preferences, and group responses.
• Usage data — how you interact with the service, including pages visited, features used, and actions taken, collected through analytics tools.
• Device and browser information — IP address, browser type, operating system, and referring URLs, collected automatically when you use the service.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide, operate, and improve the Outing.golf service
• Send you transactional emails such as invite notifications and trip updates
• Respond to your questions or support requests
• Monitor and analyze usage patterns to improve the product
• Detect and prevent fraud, abuse, or security incidents
• Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

3. Information Sharing

We share your information only in the following circumstances:

• With other trip members — when you create or join an outing, certain information (such as your name and preferences) is visible to other members of that outing.
• With service providers — we use third-party vendors to help operate the service, including hosting, email delivery, and analytics. These providers only access your data to perform services on our behalf and are bound by confidentiality obligations.
• For legal reasons — we may disclose your information if required by law, court order, or government request, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of Outing.golf, our users, or the public.
• In a business transfer — if Outing.golf is acquired or merges with another company, your information may be transferred as part of that transaction. We will notify you before your information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

4. Cookies and Tracking

Outing.golf uses cookies and similar technologies to keep you signed in, remember your preferences, and understand how the service is used. You can control cookies through your browser settings, but disabling them may affect your ability to use certain features.

We use session monitoring tools (such as LogRocket) to record anonymized session activity for debugging and product improvement purposes. This data does not include passwords or payment information.

5. Data Retention

We retain your account information and trip data for as long as your account is active or as needed to provide the service. If you delete your account, we will delete or anonymize your personal information within a reasonable time, except where we are required to retain it for legal or compliance purposes.

6. Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, loss, or disclosure. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Third-Party Services

Outing.golf may display links to or content from third-party services such as golf courses, hotels, and tee time booking platforms. This Privacy Policy does not apply to those third parties. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before sharing any information with them.

8. Children’s Privacy

Outing.golf is not directed to children under 18. We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

• Update your account information through your account settings
• Request deletion of your account and associated data by emailing us
• Opt out of non-transactional emails by following the unsubscribe link in any email we send
