Privacy Policy

Last updated: 10 Dec 2025

This privacy policy describes how Court Bookings collects, uses, and protects information from both club administrators (“Clubs”) and end-users (“Players”) who use our court booking and facility management platform.

1. Information We Collect

1.1 Information Provided by Clubs

Clubs provide various details when creating and configuring their tenant, including: club contact information, administrator names and emails, phone numbers, physical addresses, membership fees, payment provider credentials (e.g., Zapper API keys or Yoco keys), smart switch credentials, and configuration settings used to operate club facilities.

1.2 Information Provided by Players

Players provide only the information required to use the platform: first name, last name, and email address. Players may also provide booking information relevant to court reservations.

1.3 System-Generated Data

We collect platform activity logs such as booking actions, authentication events, payment attempts, smart-switch commands, and error logs. Although we do not directly collect IP addresses or browser details for analytics, some infrastructure services may automatically generate metadata as part of normal logging operations.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use collected information to operate, maintain, and improve the Court Bookings platform. This includes enabling bookings, managing memberships, processing payments, recording smart-switch activity, monitoring system reliability, and supporting clubs and players.

We may also use information to contact Clubs regarding platform updates, billing, technical issues, and optional features.

3. How Clubs Use Player Information

Each Club has full access to the player information stored within its own tenant. Court Bookings does not control or dictate how Clubs manage this data. Clubs are responsible for:

  • their own membership policies
  • any waivers or terms they require from players
  • communication with their players
  • compliance with their local data protection requirements

Court Bookings does not share player information with Clubs — instead, the platform simply provides a secure interface where Clubs can access data for their own tenant.

4. Legal Basis for Processing

We process information to provide the platform functionality that Clubs request. Clubs typically initiate service by contacting us for a trial or subscription, and continued use of the platform indicates agreement to these terms and our processing of necessary data.

5. Sharing of Information

We do not sell or rent your information. We may share information only with trusted third-party service providers required to operate the platform (such as payment gateways). These providers only receive the minimum information necessary for system functionality.

Club-specific data is never shared across tenants. Each Club can only access information within their own tenant.

6. Data Security

We use industry-standard security practices to protect stored data. While we take reasonable measures to safeguard information, no system is fully immune to risks.

7. Data Retention

We retain Club and Player data for as long as necessary to provide the service. If a Club stops using the platform, we may archive or delete data after a reasonable period unless required for legal, security, or audit purposes.

8. Player Rights

Players may contact their Club at any time to request corrections or deletion of their information. If a Player contacts Court Bookings directly, we will forward the request to the relevant Club, which is responsible for managing Player data.

9. Children’s Privacy

The platform does not collect age, date of birth, or any sensitive personal information. Only a name and email address are required to create an account. Clubs are responsible for determining whether minors may use the platform and ensuring appropriate parental permissions where applicable.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Updated versions will be posted on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date. Continued use of the platform indicates acceptance of changes.
