Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your personal data when you visit bagiq.app, use the BagIQ disc golf bag tool at app.bagiq.app, or sign up to receive emails from us. We are based in the UK and process personal data in line with the UK GDPR, the Data Protection Act 2018, the Privacy and Electronic Communications Regulations (PECR), and other relevant privacy laws.
Golf With Discs is the data controller. Contact us at [email protected] for any privacy questions.
1. The BagIQ app (app.bagiq.app)
The BagIQ bag tool stores your bag data locally in your browser using localStorage. No account is required to use the app.
To enable cross-device access, the app automatically saves your bag to our servers under a randomly generated 6-character code. This code is the only identifier — it is not linked to your name, email address, IP address, or any account. You can share this code with yourself to load your bag on another device.
The bag data saved to our servers includes your disc selections, shot labels, and a computed analysis (gaps, overlaps, coverage). Bag names and disc nicknames are free-text fields you control. We recommend avoiding personal information in these fields, as they are included in the saved bag data.
We use this data in aggregate to understand how the product is used — for example, which disc gaps are most common and which discs are most frequently carried. We do not use it to identify or profile individual users. Our legal basis for this processing is legitimate interest in improving the product.
We use PostHog, a privacy-first analytics tool, to understand how the app is used. PostHog is configured with no cookies, no IP address logging, and no personal profiles. Only anonymous usage events are collected, such as which features are used and how often. PostHog processes this data on EU servers.
2. Email sign-up (bagiq.app)
When you sign up through the email form on bagiq.app, we collect your email address and the date and time of sign-up. We use this to send occasional updates about BagIQ, including new features, useful disc golf content, and anything else worth knowing. No filler.
We use Brevo (formerly Sendinblue) to manage our email list and send emails. Your email address is stored with Brevo. Brevo may transfer data outside the UK or EEA. Where this happens, appropriate safeguards apply, including Standard Contractual Clauses.
You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email we send. We may keep a suppression record after you unsubscribe to make sure we do not contact you again by mistake.
The legal basis for processing your email address is your consent. You can withdraw consent at any time by unsubscribing.
3. Website analytics
We use Cloudflare Web Analytics on bagiq.app. Cloudflare Web Analytics is cookieless and does not track individuals. It collects only aggregate data such as page views, country, and browser type. No personal data is stored or shared. This does not require your consent under PECR.
4. Cookies
The BagIQ marketing site (bagiq.app) does not use cookies. The app (app.bagiq.app) uses localStorage to store your bag data locally. localStorage is not a cookie and is not sent to any server. No tracking cookies are used on either site.
5. Your rights
Under the UK GDPR, you have the right to access, correct, or delete your personal data; to object to processing; and to withdraw consent where we rely on it. To exercise any of these rights, email [email protected]. You can also contact the Information Commissioner's Office at ico.org.uk.
6. Data retention
Email subscription data is retained while you remain subscribed. After unsubscribing, we may keep a suppression record. Analytics data is aggregated and anonymised.
Anonymous bag snapshots saved to our servers are retained indefinitely for product analytics purposes. Because there is no account link, we cannot identify which bag belongs to you. If you reset your bag in the app, the local data is cleared but the server-side snapshot is not automatically deleted. To request deletion of a bag snapshot, email [email protected] with your 6-character bag code (shown in the Share or Profile sections of the app).
7. Third-party services
We use the following third-party services:
- Brevo — email list management and delivery
- PostHog (EU) — anonymous, cookieless app analytics
- Cloudflare — web performance, security, and cookieless website analytics
- Cloudflare Pages — website and app hosting
8. Changes to this policy
We may update this policy. The latest version will always be at bagiq.app/privacy.html with the updated date shown above.
