Privacy Policy

Effective Date: July 21, 2025

Fortney Engineering LLC ("we", "us", "our") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect information in connection with The Shooters Hub web platform and related services.

1. Information We Collect

  • Account Information: Name, email, shooter details (such as class or division), and preferences.
  • Match Data: Participation records, scores, and registrations tied to your account.
  • Usage Data: Log data, IP addresses, device/browser info, and interaction data to help us improve the platform.
  • Cookies: We use cookies to manage sessions, remember preferences, and understand how people use the site.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To operate and maintain The Shooters Hub platform.
  • To enable registration, communication, and scoring for matches and events.
  • To notify you about updates, new features, or upcoming events (if you opt in).
  • To improve performance and troubleshoot issues.

3. Youth Privacy

The Shooters Hub is not intended for direct use by individuals under the age of 18. If a youth participates in matches, a parent or legal guardian must manage the account and provide all information. We do not knowingly collect personal data directly from minors.

If you believe a minor has created an account without parental oversight, please contact us at contact@fortneyengineering.com and we will take appropriate action, including account deletion if needed.

4. California Privacy Rights (CCPA)

If you are a California resident, you have the right to:

  • Request to know what personal information we collect and how it’s used.
  • Request deletion of your personal information (subject to match participation and legal obligations).
  • Opt out of any sale of your personal information (note: we do not sell your data).

To exercise these rights, email contact@fortneyengineering.com with “CCPA Request” in the subject line.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. Your information is only shared with:

  • Clubs or match directors—only when you register for their matches.
  • Trusted service providers—like hosting, email, or analytics tools, all under strict data protection terms.

6. Cookies & Tracking

We use cookies and similar technologies to maintain login sessions, remember preferences, and improve performance. You can disable cookies in your browser settings, but some features may not work correctly.

7. Data Security

We use encryption, access controls, and regular audits to protect your information. That said, no system is 100% secure, so we encourage you to use strong passwords and reach out if you suspect any unauthorized access.

8. Data Retention

We retain your data as long as your account is active or as needed for legitimate operational or legal purposes (e.g., preserving match records). You can request deletion at any time unless your data is required for ongoing club records or obligations.

9. Jurisdiction

This Privacy Policy is governed by the laws of the State of Wisconsin, USA. Any disputes relating to this policy will be handled in Vernon County, Wisconsin, in accordance with our Terms of Service.

10. Your Rights

You may contact us to:

  • Request access to your personal data
  • Update or correct your information
  • Request deletion of your account
  • Ask questions about how your data is handled
