5. Selling and Sharing Personal Information
Pinnacle does not sell personal information for money.
Some Website analytics, social-media, or advertising technologies may disclose device or activity information to third parties. Under certain privacy laws, this type of disclosure may be considered “sharing” even when no money is exchanged.
Where legally required, visitors may opt out through available cookie controls, browser-based Global Privacy Control signals, or by contacting us.
6. Cookies and Tracking
The Website and its service providers may use cookies and similar technologies to:
-
Operate Website features;
-
Remember settings;
-
Maintain security;
-
Measure Website traffic and performance; and
-
Support communications or advertising.
You can adjust cookie settings through your browser or any cookie controls made available on the Website. Disabling cookies may affect certain Website features.
Pinnacle does not currently respond to traditional “Do Not Track” browser signals. Where required by applicable law, we will process recognized opt-out preference signals, such as Global Privacy Control, for covered data practices.
Third parties may collect information about your online activities over time and across different websites according to their own policies.
7. Children’s Privacy
Pinnacle serves youth athletes, but the Website’s registration and purchasing features are intended to be used by parents, legal guardians, and individuals age 13 or older.
Children under 13 should not submit personal information directly through the Website. A parent or guardian should submit information on the child’s behalf.
When we receive information about a child from a parent or guardian, we use it for registration, safety, coaching, communication, and program administration. We seek to collect only information reasonably necessary for those purposes.
When legally required, Pinnacle will provide notice and obtain verifiable parental consent before knowingly collecting personal information online directly from a child under 13.
Parents and guardians may contact us to request access to, correction of, or deletion of a child’s personal information. We may need to verify the requester’s identity and relationship to the child before completing the request.
If we learn that information was submitted directly by a child under 13 without required parental authorization, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.
8. Photographs and Video
Pinnacle may use photographs or recordings in accordance with the media authorization selected during registration or otherwise provided by a parent, guardian, or adult participant.
A parent or guardian may contact us about media preferences. We will make reasonable efforts to honor documented restrictions, recognizing that Pinnacle may not control photography or recording at public tournaments, third-party facilities, or other public events.
9. Data Retention
We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Policy, including program operations, safety, insurance, accounting, dispute resolution, and legal compliance.
Retention periods vary based on the type of record and applicable obligations. When information is no longer reasonably necessary, we may delete, anonymize, or securely dispose of it.
10. Data Security
Pinnacle uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information.
No website, transmission method, or storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure. You should use caution when sending sensitive information electronically and contact us if you believe your information has been misused.
11. Your Choices and Privacy Rights
You may:
-
Unsubscribe from marketing emails using the link in the message;
-
Request access to personal information we maintain about you or your child;
-
Ask us to correct inaccurate information;
-

Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have additional rights to know, access, correct, or delete personal information; opt out of certain sales or sharing; limit certain uses of sensitive information; or receive information in a portable format.
We will not discriminate against you for exercising an applicable privacy right. We may need to verify your identity or authority before completing a request. An authorized agent may submit a request where permitted by law, but we may require proof of authorization.
To submit a privacy request, email PinnacleAthleticClub2026@gmail.com with the subject line “Privacy Request.”
12. Third-Party Websites
The Website may contain links to third-party websites and services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this Privacy Policy. We encourage you to review those policies before providing personal information.
13. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our practices, programs, or legal obligations change. The revised Policy will be posted on the Website with an updated effective date.
If a change materially affects how we use previously collected information, we will provide additional notice when required by law.
