Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 7, 2026
1. Overview
athleteGPS (“we,” “our,” “the platform”) is designed to support youth athletes while protecting their privacy. We intentionally minimize the collection and storage of personal information. We do not store phone numbers, email addresses, or other personally identifiable information (PII) for guardians or minors inside our application database.
All contact information used for SMS or email communication is securely stored by our third‑party providers (Twilio and SendGrid), not by athleteGPS.
2. Information We Collect Athletes (Minors)
We collect only non‑identifying information necessary to operate the platform, such as:
username
athlete activity data
performance indicators
account password (hashed)
We do not collect or store:
phone numbers
email addresses
names
addresses
birthdates
Guardians
Guardians may provide a phone number or email address for communication purposes. These identifiers are not stored in our database.
Instead:
Phone numbers are stored by Twilio using anonymous identities.
Email addresses are stored by SendGrid using contact IDs.
athleteGPS stores only anonymous references (Twilio identity, SendGrid contact ID).
3. How We Use Information
We use anonymous identifiers to:
send guardian consent messages
deliver athlete alerts
notify guardians of important updates
manage opt‑in and opt‑out preferences
All SMS and email delivery is handled by Twilio and SendGrid.
4. SMS Messaging & Consent
Guardians may opt in to receive SMS alerts through:
a secure web form inside the athleteGPS app
replying YES to a consent message sent by Twilio
Message frequency varies based on athlete activity. Message and data rates may apply.
Guardians may opt out at any time by replying STOP. Reply HELP for assistance.
5. Non‑Sharing of Mobile Numbers
We do not share, sell, rent, or transfer guardian mobile numbers or email addresses. Because athleteGPS does not store these identifiers, they cannot be shared.
Twilio and SendGrid store contact information solely for message delivery and consent management.
6. Data Storage & Security
athleteGPS uses a zero‑PII architecture:
No phone numbers or emails are stored in our database
No minor PII is collected
All sensitive identifiers remain with Twilio and SendGrid
All passwords are hashed
All communication is encrypted in transit
If our database were compromised, no guardian or minor contact information would be exposed.
7. Children’s Privacy (COPPA Compliance)
athleteGPS is designed for youth athletes. We comply with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) by:
collecting no minor PII
requiring guardian consent for communication
storing contact information only with secure third‑party providers
allowing guardians to revoke consent at any time
8. Opt‑Out & Account Control
Guardians may:
opt out of SMS alerts by replying STOP
request deletion of athlete accounts
revoke consent for communication
request removal of Twilio or SendGrid contact records
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as needed. The latest version will always be available on this page.
