This Privacy Policy informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of personal data when you use our Service and the choices you have associated with that data.
We use your data to provide and improve the Service. By using the Service, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.
We collect several different types of information for various purposes to provide and improve our Service to you.
While using our Service, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you. This may include, but is not limited to:
When you make a purchase or register for a tournament through our Service, we collect information necessary to process your payment, including your name, billing address, and payment method details. We do not store full credit card numbers on our servers. Payment processing is handled by PCI DSS-compliant third-party payment processors on behalf of the Tournament Organizer (the merchant of record). We may retain transaction identifiers, amounts, and timestamps for record-keeping and dispute resolution purposes.
We may also collect information that your browser sends whenever you visit our Service or when you access the Service by or through a mobile device. This may include your computer's IP address, browser type, browser version, the pages you visit, the time and date of your visit, time spent on those pages, unique device identifiers, and other diagnostic data.
We may use and store information about your location if you give us permission to do so. We use this data to provide features of our Service (such as tournament check-ins, GPS-based scoring, and boundary enforcement), to improve and customize our Service. You can enable or disable location services at any time through your device settings.
If you provide your phone number and opt in to receive text messages from us or a Tournament Organizer through our Service, we collect your phone number and records of messages sent and received. See the SMS/Text Messaging section below for full details on consent, frequency, and opt-out.
Our mobile applications may send push notifications related to tournament updates, scores, announcements, and other Service features. We collect device tokens necessary to deliver these notifications. You can enable or disable push notifications at any time through your device settings.
We use cookies and similar tracking technologies to track the activity on our Service and hold certain information.

Our Service allows Tournament Organizers to send SMS/text messages to participants and allows users to opt in to receive text message notifications. By providing your phone number and opting in, you consent to receive text messages from Reel Time Apps Inc. and/or the relevant Tournament Organizer through our platform.
We do not sell, rent, or share your phone number or SMS opt-in data with third parties for their marketing purposes. Phone numbers collected for SMS are used solely for delivering messages through our Service on behalf of you or your Tournament Organizer.
Reel Time Apps Inc. uses the collected data for various purposes:
When you register for a tournament, your registration data (name, contact information, and any information you provide on the registration form) is shared with the Tournament Organizer for that specific tournament. Tournament Organizers are responsible for their own use of your data in accordance with their own privacy practices. We encourage you to review any privacy disclosures provided by the Tournament Organizer.
We may employ third-party companies and individuals to facilitate our Service. These third parties have access to your Personal Data only to perform tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose. Our service providers include:

However, no method of transmission over the Internet or method of electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Data, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.
In the event of a data breach that affects your Personal Data, we will notify affected users and relevant authorities in accordance with applicable law.

Our Service is not directed at children and we do not knowingly collect Personal Data directly from anyone under the age of 18. All accounts on our Service must be created by adults (18 years of age or older).
Some fishing tournaments hosted on our platform include junior angler divisions for minors. In all such cases, a parent or legal guardian has registered their child for the tournament, and the minor's information is entered into the Service either by the parent directly or by the Tournament Organizer on the parent's behalf as part of the registration process. This registration constitutes verifiable parental consent for the collection and use of the minor's data in connection with the tournament. The parent or guardian may request access to, correction of, or deletion of their child's data at any time by contacting us at support@reeltimeapps.com.
We do not use minor's Personal Data for marketing purposes or share it with third parties beyond what is necessary to administer the tournament (i.e., sharing with the Tournament Organizer).
We may update our Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the effective date at the top. For material changes, we will provide notice via email or a prominent notice within the Service prior to the change becoming effective.
