Running World Cup Privacy Policy

Running World Cup (the “Company”) is committed to protecting the privacy of its users. This Privacy Policy (“Privacy Policy”) explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect it, helping you make informed decisions about your use of our Service. This Privacy Policy applies to our websites, mobile apps, and services provided through partnered or unaffiliated sites.

By using our Service, you agree to the practices described in this policy.

  

I. CONSENT

By accessing our Service, you confirm that you accept this Privacy Policy and our Terms of Use. You consent to the collection, use, storage, and disclosure of your personal data as outlined. Additionally, if you use any third-party service integrated with ours (such as Apple or Google Play services), you are also agreeing to their respective terms and privacy policies.

For Google Play Store and Apple App Store compliance, you will be asked to provide explicit consent (i.e., opt-in) for the collection of any personal data before its collection. Consent must be obtained before processing data, and you can withdraw consent at any time. You may also be asked for permissions related to device features (e.g., location, notifications), which you can grant or revoke in your device settings.

  

II. INFORMATION WE COLLECT

We may collect the following types of information:

  1. Personal Information: Data that identifies you personally (e.g., name, email, billing      address, payment information). This includes any information collected by      Google or Apple for login or payment.
  2. Non-Personal Information: Anonymous usage data (e.g., app activity, browsing patterns, and      app crash reports).
  3. Location Information: With your explicit consent, we may collect location data to      enhance your experience (e.g., for fitness tracking or location-based      services).
  4. Device Information: Information such as device type, operating system, and unique      device identifiers (UDID/IDFA) may be collected.

Note: For apps published through Google Play or Apple App Store, compliance with their specific guidelines (including permissions requests) is required. We will inform users of all permissions requested and their intended use.

  

III. HOW WE USE AND SHARE INFORMATION

  1. Personal Information:
    • We use your data to provide the services requested, process transactions, and improve user experience.  Your data may be shared with trusted third-party service providers (e.g., payment processors or data storage services) only as necessary for their  services to the Company.
    • For apps on Google Play and the App Store, certain services may involve the transfer of personal information to comply with their data-handling requirements.

  1. Non-Personal Information:
    • We use non-personal information to improve our services, app performance, and user experience.

  1. Third-Party Service Providers:
    • Google Play Services/Apple Services: Any data processed by Google Play Services or Apple App Store (e.g., in-app purchases, cloud storage) follows their respective privacy policies.
    • You should refer to the third-party privacy policies for more details on their data collection and usage practices.

  1. Advertising and Analytics:
    • We may use third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand app usage patterns. We may also use advertising networks that collect and share device and usage data to serve personalized ads (you will have the ability to opt-out of personalized advertising).

      

IV. HOW WE PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION

We take appropriate security measures to protect your personal information against unauthorized access or disclosure. However, we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your data. By using our Service, you agree that we are not liable for breaches of security beyond our control.

For app compliance with both Google Play and Apple App Store, encryption and secure transmission (e.g., SSL/TLS) are used for sensitive data.

  • Access: You can      request a copy of the personal information we hold about you.
  • Correction: You may request correction of any inaccuracies in your data.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at nick.beresford@runningworldcup.com.

For Google Play and Apple App Store compliance, users can manage their data via app settings or through their Google or Apple account settings. Permissions for data collection (e.g., access to location or notifications) can be adjusted in device settings.

  

VI. INTERNATIONAL TRANSFERS

If you are accessing our services from outside the UK or EU, please note that your data may be transferred internationally. We ensure such transfers comply with applicable data protection laws, including the GDPR, using standard contractual clauses or equivalent mechanisms.

  

VII. CHILDREN'S PRIVACY

Our services are not intended for children under the age of 13. If we become aware that we have inadvertently collected personal data from children under 13, we will delete such information promptly.

For Google Play and Apple compliance, specific parental consent may be required when an app is targeted toward children.
