Important Note About Recommendations and Matching

CAMPUS may use information such as athletic data, academic information, preferences, profile content, roster information, and platform activity to generate recommendations, fit indicators, rankings, comparison tools, and recruiting insights.

These outputs are designed to assist with recruiting decisions and platform usability. They do not guarantee recruiting outcomes, scholarship offers, admissions decisions, roster spots, playing time, transfer opportunities, or coach responses.

4. Profile Visibility, Messaging, and User Content

CAMPUS is designed to help users connect through profiles, messaging, recruiting insights, and shared content. As a result, certain information may be visible to other users depending on account type, privacy settings, and platform features.

Profile Visibility

Depending on product settings and user role, portions of an athlete, coach, academy, or program profile may be visible to:

college coaches and programs;
parents or guardians linked to an athlete account;
academy or coaching partners where applicable;
other authorized users of the platform; and
in some cases, the public, if a user chooses to make portions of a profile public.

Users may be able to control certain profile visibility settings through their account settings. Some information may still remain visible where necessary to provide the Services.

Messaging

If you send messages or outreach through CAMPUS, we may process, store, and deliver those communications as part of the Services. We may also monitor message metadata and, where necessary, message content for safety, abuse prevention, platform integrity, customer support, and enforcement of our Terms and policies.

If CAMPUS offers coach engagement tracking, such as message opens, clicks, or related activity, those features may be used to provide users with communication insights.

User Content

Users may upload or submit content such as:

profile photos
swing videos
tournament videos
images
statistics
written bios
academic and recruiting content
messages and communications

That content may be visible to other users based on account type, privacy settings, and platform functionality.

If you upload photos, videos, or other content featuring a minor, you represent that you are the minor’s parent or guardian, or otherwise have the legal authority to provide that content and authorize its use on the platform.

We may remove or restrict content that violates our Terms, safety standards, or applicable law.

5. Children’s Privacy and Parental Rights (COPPA)

CAMPUS complies with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). We take children’s privacy seriously and have implemented specific protections for users under 13.

Information We Collect from Children Under 13

With verified parental consent, we collect the following categories of personal information from children under 13:

Identity: first name, last name, email address, and password (for account login)
Demographics: date of birth and gender (for recruiting eligibility and program matching)
Location: city and state (for geographic matching with college programs)
Education: high school name, school level, and graduation year (for recruiting timeline)
Golf: experience level, tournament results, handicap, and performance statistics (for program matching and coach visibility)
Academics: GPA, SAT/ACT scores (if voluntarily provided, for academic eligibility)
Preferences: recruiting goals, college priorities, and operating style (for personalized guidance)

How We Use Children’s Information

Profile creation: displaying the child’s recruiting profile to college coaches
College matching: matching the child with appropriate college golf programs based on their goals and qualifications
Communication: enabling coaches and athletes to communicate through the platform
Platform functionality: providing personalized recruiting guidance and recommendations

Who Can See Children’s Information

College coaches who use CAMPUS for recruiting purposes
The linked parent or guardian through the Parent Dashboard
CAMPUS staff for platform support and maintenance
Service providers (hosting, payment processing) as necessary to operate the platform

We do not sell children’s personal information to third parties. We do not use children’s data for targeted advertising.

Parental Consent Process

We obtain verifiable parental consent using the FTC-approved “email-plus” method:

When a child under 13 begins signup, we collect only their date of birth and gender, then immediately request parent contact information.
We send a detailed consent email to the parent disclosing exactly what data will be collected and how it will be used.
The parent reviews the disclosure and provides explicit consent by checking a consent checkbox.
The parent completes account setup and the $299/year subscription payment, which serves as additional identity verification.

Parental Rights

Parents and guardians of children under 13 have the following rights, which can be exercised through the Parent Dashboard at /parent/dashboard or by contacting us:

Review: access all information collected about your child at any time
Download: export a complete copy of your child’s data in JSON format
Correct: request changes or corrections to inaccurate data
Revoke: withdraw your consent at any time, which will immediately deactivate your child’s account and cancel their subscription
Delete: request permanent deletion of all your child’s personal information

Data Retention for Children

Active accounts: data retained while parental consent is valid and the account is active
Consent revocation: account deactivated immediately; personal data deleted from active systems within 30 days
Account deletion: data removed from active systems within 30 days, from backups within 90 days
Consent records: retained for 7 years for legal compliance, even after account deletion

Contact for COPPA Inquiries

For questions about our children’s privacy practices, to exercise parental rights, or to report concerns, contact us at support@gocampus.io.

Users Under 18

For users aged 13-17, we encourage parental involvement. CAMPUS may apply age-based restrictions, privacy defaults, messaging limitations, or additional safeguards for minors.

6. How We Share Information

We do not sell personal information in the ordinary meaning of the term. We may share information in the following circumstances:

Service Providers

We may share information with vendors and service providers that help us operate CAMPUS, such as providers of:

hosting and cloud storage
authentication
analytics
payment processing
email delivery
customer support
security and fraud prevention
product infrastructure and communications tools

These providers may access information only as necessary to perform services on our behalf, subject to contractual protections.

Coaches, Programs, and Other Users

We may share athlete profile information, videos, messages, and related recruiting content with coaches, programs, academies, or other users as part of the Services and according to privacy settings and platform functionality.

Parents or Guardians

Where a minor account is linked to a parent or guardian, we may share relevant account information with that parent or guardian.

Referral or Integration Partners

If you connect CAMPUS with a partner organization, academy, tour, scoring platform, or other integrated service, we may share or receive information as needed to provide the requested functionality, consistent with your permissions and applicable law.

Legal and Safety Reasons

We may disclose information:

to comply with applicable law, regulation, court order, or legal process;
to investigate or prevent fraud, abuse, or security issues;
to enforce our Terms or other agreements;
to protect the rights, property, safety, or security of CAMPUS, our users, or others.

7. Cookies and Analytics

We and our service providers may use cookies, pixels, SDKs, and similar technologies to:

operate and secure the Services;
remember preferences and settings;
understand traffic and usage patterns;
measure campaign performance;
improve the user experience; and
support communications and marketing.

You may be able to adjust cookie settings through your browser or device settings. Please note that disabling certain technologies may affect functionality.

If required by applicable law, we will provide additional notice or consent options for cookies and similar technologies.

8. Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to:

provide the Services;

support recruiting history and user activity;
comply with legal, accounting, tax, or regulatory obligations;
resolve disputes;
enforce agreements; and
protect platform safety and integrity.

We may retain de-identified or aggregated information for analytics, research, and product improvement purposes.

Deletion of an account does not necessarily mean immediate deletion from backups or all retained systems, though we will process deletion requests in accordance with applicable law.

9. Data Security

We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, use, alteration, and disclosure.

These measures may include:

encryption in transit;
access controls;
password hashing;
vendor management and system monitoring; and
other industry-standard security practices.

However, no method of storage or transmission over the internet is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Your Choices and Rights

Depending on where you live and how you use CAMPUS, you may have the right to:

access the personal information we hold about you;
correct or update your information;
delete your account or request deletion of certain data;
opt out of marketing emails by using the unsubscribe link in those emails;
adjust certain profile visibility or messaging settings;
disconnect third-party integrations where available;
request information about how your data is used; and
exercise additional privacy rights available under applicable law.

Parents or guardians may also have rights regarding information associated with a minor account, as described above.

11. State Privacy Notices

If you are a resident of certain U.S. states, including California, Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, Oregon, Texas, Utah, Virginia, or other states with applicable privacy laws, you may have additional rights regarding your personal information, including rights to access, correct, delete, or opt out of certain processing activities.

CAMPUS does not sell personal information in the ordinary meaning of that term, but some privacy laws define “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising” broadly. If CAMPUS uses cookies, analytics, or advertising technologies in ways that trigger those laws, users may have additional opt-out rights.

If required by applicable law, CAMPUS will honor eligible privacy requests and provide a means to exercise those rights.

You may contact us to submit a state privacy request using the contact information below.

12. Third-Party Services and Links

CAMPUS may contain links to third-party websites or services and may allow integrations with third-party platforms. Those third parties operate under their own privacy policies and terms, and CAMPUS is not responsible for their practices.

We encourage you to review the privacy policies of any third-party services you access through CAMPUS.

13. International Users

If you access CAMPUS from outside the United States, please note that your information may be transferred to, processed, and stored in the United States or other countries where our service providers operate.

By using the Services, you understand that your information may be transferred to jurisdictions that may not provide the same level of data protection as your home country.

If CAMPUS expands into jurisdictions with specific legal requirements, we may provide supplemental disclosures as required by law.

14. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will post the updated version and revise the “Last Updated” date above.

If we make material changes, we may provide additional notice through the Services or by email where required by law.

Your continued use of CAMPUS after an updated Privacy Policy becomes effective means that you acknowledge the revised policy.
