Likewise, if your account or membership is terminated or suspended, we may maintain some information to prevent re-registration.
Additional Privacy Information for California Residents
If you are a California resident, California law requires large companies to provide you with some additional information regarding the “personal information” (as defined in the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”)) they collect from and about you, and your rights with respect to your personal information. GOLF 6 is currently not required to take any action under the CCPA, but should we in the future meet any CCPA threshold, details about CCPA compliance would be found on this page.
How We Respond to Do Not Track Signals for California Residents: California Business & Professions Code Section 22575(b) (as amended effective January 1, 2014) provides that California residents are entitled to know how GOLF 6 responds to “Do Not Track” browser settings. GOLF 6 does not currently take actions to respond to Do Not Track signals because a uniform technological standard has not yet been developed. We continue to review new technologies and may adopt a standard once one is created.
Additional Privacy Information for Nevada Residents
Under Nevada law, Nevada residents who have purchased goods or services from us may opt out of the “sale” of “covered information” (as such terms are defined under Nevada law) for monetary consideration to a person for that person to license or sell such information to additional persons. GOLF 6 does not engage in such “sales” of “covered information,” but if it were to do so in the future, a Nevada resident who has purchased goods or services from us would have the right to submit a request to opt out of future “sales” activity emailing us at questions@golf6.com. Please note we may take reasonable steps to verify your identity and the authenticity of the request.
Third-Parties
Our Site may contain links to other third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or the content of these third-party sites and urge you to review their posted privacy policies.
Security
We store and process your information on our servers located in the United States. We maintain technical, physical, and administrative security measures to protect the security of your information against loss, misuse, unauthorized access, disclosure, or alteration. Some of the safeguards we use are firewalls, data encryption, physical access controls to our data centers and information access authorization controls. However, please note that no security measures or transmissions over the Internet can be 100% guaranteed to protect your information. It is your responsibility to make sure that your information is accurate and that your password(s) and account registration information are secure and not shared with third-parties.

The Site is a general audience site and it is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect “personal information” (as defined by the United States Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act or “COPPA”) on our Site.
International Transfer
As we operate internationally, and many of our computer systems are currently based in the United States, your information may be processed in the U.S. and elsewhere where data protection and privacy regulations may not offer the same level of protection as in other parts of the world, such as the European Union. If you create an account/profile, you consent to the collection and/or processing in the United States of your information and tracking technologies/cookies as described in this Privacy Policy.
