Collection of Personal Information
At www.mCaddie.com / www.AccelGolf.com (the “Site”), mCaddie, Inc. (“mCaddie”, "AccelGolf", or “we”) may ask you to provide personal information, such as your e-mail address, name, mailing address, or telephone number. If you choose to subscribe to our premium service or any other subscription-based service, we will ask for additional information, such as your credit card number and billing address, which is used to create a AccelGolf billing account.
We may collect information about your interaction with the Site. For example, we may use tools to retrieve information from your browser, including the website you came from, the search engine(s) and the keywords you used to find the Site, the pages you view on the Site, your browser add-ons, and your browser’s width and height. We may also use “cookies” (discussed below), to collect information about the pages you view, the links you click and other actions you take on the Site.

Use of Personal Information
AccelGolf collects and uses your personal information primarily to operate and improve the Site and the services offered on the Site. These uses may include, but are not limited to, (i) providing you with more effective customer service, (ii) making the Site or our services easier to use, and (iii) performing research and analysis aimed at improving the content of the Site and the quality of our services. AccelGolf may also use your personal information to identify and authenticate you when you access the Site, and to communicate with you about various matters.

Sharing of Personal Information
Except as described in this Privacy Policy, AccelGolf will not disclose your personal information outside of AccelGolf without your consent.
We may share your personal information with certain golf courses and other third-party businesses so that they can contact you about their products, services or offers through your AccelGolf profile or via email or SMS text messaging. AccelGolf will not provide any golf course or other third-party business with your email address or other personal information which you have identified as “private” in your AccelGolf account settings.
We may hire other companies to provide limited services on our behalf, such as hosting the Site, processing transactions, or storing data. Those vendors will be permitted to obtain only the personal information they need to deliver the service(s) they provide to AccelGolf. They are required to maintain the confidentiality of the information and are prohibited from using it for any purpose other than their provision of services to AccelGolf.
We may offer some of our services in connection with business partners. In such cases, personal information you provide under your AccelGolf account may be shared with our business partners to provide services requested by you. We process your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. Although we choose our business partners carefully, AccelGolf cannot be responsible for the privacy practices of websites operated by third parties that are linked to or from the Site. Once you have left the Site, you should be sure to check the applicable privacy policy of the third party website to determine how they will use personal information they collect from you.
We may access or disclose your personal information, including the content of your communications, in order to (i) comply with applicable law or respond to lawful requests or legal process, (ii) protect the rights or property of AccelGolf, including the enforcement of agreements or policies governing your use of our services, (iii) prevent fraud or suspected fraud, or (iv) protect the personal safety of AccelGolf employees, customers or the public.
We may disclose your personal information if AccelGolf merges with or is acquired by another company, or if the Site or a portion of it is acquired by another company (each, a “Sale”). In the event of a Sale, AccelGolf will notify you before your personal information is transferred and becomes subject to a different privacy policy.

Security of Personal Information
AccelGolf is committed to protecting the security of your personal information. We use a variety of security measures to help protect your personal information from unauthorized access, use, or disclosure, and require our vendors to do the same.
A password is used to help protect your account and personal information. It is your responsibility to keep your password confidential, and you should not share it with anyone. If you are sharing a computer with other people, you should log out before leaving the Site to protect access to your information from subsequent users.
