Dale Dai is hereby referred to as the "Service Provider". ## Information Collection and Use The Application collects information when you download and use it. This information may include information such as * Your device's Internet Protocol address * The pages of the Application that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages * The time spent on the Application * your mobile operating system you use ## Cookies and tracking technologies The Application or its third-party SDKs may use cookies, SDKs, pixels, and similar technologies to support functionality, analytics, or service delivery. Where required by applicable law, the Service Provider will obtain consent before using non-essential tracking technologies. ## Analytics The Application uses PostHog, a product analytics service provided by PostHog, Inc., to understand how the Application is used and to improve it. Analytics data is processed and stored in the United States on PostHog's US cloud. The analytics data collected consists of: * Usage events, such as which screens are visited and which features are used (for example opening live timing, submitting a prediction, sharing a card, or following a driver) * Device and application information, such as device model, operating system version, app version, and language * A randomly generated identifier for your installation of the Application If you are signed in to a Trackside account, analytics events are linked to your account identifier and username so that usage can be understood per account. Analytics deliberately does not collect the content of anything you write or read in the Application: direct messages are not tracked at all, and search queries, message text, and profile field values are never included in analytics data. Analytics data is not used for advertising, is not sold, and is not shared with third parties for cross-app tracking. You can stop analytics collection by uninstalling the Application, and you can request deletion of analytics data linked to your account by contacting the Service Provider at . ## Your Rights You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal data held by the Service Provider. To exercise these rights, or to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent, contact the Service Provider at . ## Your California privacy rights (CCPA/CPRA) If you are a California resident, you have the right to know what personal information is collected, the right to delete personal information, the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, and the right to non-discrimination for exercising these rights. To exercise your CCPA/CPRA rights, contact the Service Provider at . The Service Provider may use the information you provide to send important information, required notices, and, where permitted by law, marketing communications. For a better experience while using the Application, the Service Provider may require you to provide certain personally identifiable information, including but not limited to Email, Name. The information the Service Provider requests will be retained and used as described in this privacy policy. ## Third Party Access The Service Provider shares data with third-party service providers only as described in this privacy statement, such as the analytics data described in the Analytics section above. These service providers process data on the Service Provider's behalf and are not permitted to use it for their own purposes. The Service Provider may share your information with third parties in the ways that are described in this privacy statement. ## International Data Transfers The Service Provider or its third-party service providers may transfer personal data to countries outside your country of residence, including outside the European Economic Area (EEA). Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, the Service Provider will use appropriate mechanisms. * Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission * Adequacy decisions or other legally recognized transfer mechanisms * Your consent, where required and legally permitted Data protection laws in other countries may differ from those in your jurisdiction. Where required by law, the Service Provider will apply appropriate safeguards and obtain any consent required for the transfer. The Service Provider may disclose User Provided and Automatically Collected Information: * as required by law, such as to comply with a subpoena, or similar legal process; * when they believe in good faith that disclosure is necessary to protect their rights, protect your safety or the safety of others, investigate fraud, or respond to a government request; * with their trusted services providers who work on their behalf, do not have an independent use of the information the Service Provider discloses to them, and have agreed to adhere to the rules set forth in this privacy statement. ## Opt-Out Rights You can stop further collection of information from your mobile device by uninstalling the Application. Uninstalling will stop the Application from collecting data from your device, but it does not automatically delete information that has already been transmitted to the Service Provider or to third parties. To request deletion of your personal data, to withdraw consent, or to exercise any of your rights, contact the Service Provider at . ## Account Deletion You may delete your account at any time directly within the Application, from Profile → Settings → Delete Account. Account deletion is self-service and does not require contacting the Service Provider. When you delete your account, the Service Provider permanently removes your account record, profile, and User-Generated Content associated with it, subject to the retention periods described below for backups and any records required by law. Account deletion is irreversible. ## Data Retention Policy The Service Provider retains personal data based on its necessity for the stated purposes: * User Provided Data: Retained for the duration of your use of the Application plus 12 months thereafter, unless longer retention is required by law * Automatically Collected Data: Retained for up to 24 months from collection, unless longer retention is required for legal compliance * Aggregated and Anonymized Data: Retained indefinitely as it no longer identifies you * Data required for legal compliance: Retained as long as required by applicable law You may request deletion of your personal data, subject to any legal obligation to retain it. If you want the Service Provider to delete User Provided Data submitted through the Application, please contact them at . Please note that some User Provided Data may be required for the Application to function properly. ## Children and Age Requirements The Application is not directed to children under 13, and the Service Provider does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If the Service Provider learns that it has collected personal information from a child under 13 without the consent required by applicable law, it will take steps to delete that information and the associated account as required by law. You must meet the minimum-age, consent, and parental-permission requirements that apply in your country or territory. If you believe that a child under 13 has provided personal information through the Application, contact the Service Provider at . ## Security The Service Provider is concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality of your information. The Service Provider provides physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect information the Service Provider processes and maintains. ## Data Breach Notification If a data breach occurs that affects your personal data, the Service Provider will notify you in accordance with applicable legal requirements, including, where required, providing information about the nature of the breach and the steps being taken to address it. ## Changes The Service Provider may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The Service Provider will notify you of material changes by posting the updated Privacy Policy with an effective date. Where required by law, the Service Provider will seek your consent to material changes before they take effect. Previous versions of this Privacy Policy will be maintained and made available upon request by contacting the Service Provider at . This privacy policy is effective as of 2026-08-28. ## Your Consent Where processing is based on consent, you provide that consent by affirmatively opting in to the relevant feature or action. You may withdraw consent at any time without affecting processing carried out before withdrawal. Processing based on other lawful bases is carried out as described above. ## Contact Us If you have any questions regarding privacy while using the Application, or have questions about the practices, please contact the Service Provider via email at . --- # Agent Instructions This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters: ``` GET https://trackside.gitbook.io/trackside/privacy-policy.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `build a script that syncs our docs to a CMS` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
