Introduction
Sportinkaart ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and safeguard your information when you use our mobile application.
Information we collect
Information you provide directly
When you use the in-app suggestion form to submit suggestions, questions, or requests to change location information, you provide the following, which is transmitted from your device to us so we can respond:
- Name: The name you enter in the suggestion form
- Email address: The email address you enter so we can reply to you
- User-generated content: Any information you include when suggesting new sports locations or requesting updates to existing locations (for example, the location name, address, or a description of the change)
Providing this information is optional: it is collected only if you choose to use the suggestion form. You can use the rest of the app without submitting any name or email address.
