Caddy Connect Privacy Policy
Last updated: 13 November 2026
1. About Caddy Connect
Caddy Connect is a pre-launch golf technology project developing a free service to help golfers discover and connect with golf caddies in Thailand.
This Privacy Policy explains how personal information is collected, used and protected through our website at caddyconnect.golf and its associated country-specific pages.
Caddy Connect is the trading and project name used for these pre-launch activities. It is not currently a registered limited company.
For privacy enquiries, please contact clubsecretary@caddyconnect.golf.
2. Information We Collect
Golfer interest registrations
When you register your interest in Caddy Connect, we collect:
- Your email address.
- The date and time of your registration.
- The source of your registration.
- A record of the registration consent wording in effect when you registered.
- Information about confirmation email processing and unsubscribe preferences.
We do not require your name, telephone number, payment information or a user account.
Website operation and security
Our website service providers may process technical information, including IP addresses, browser information and website requests, to operate, maintain and protect the website.
Website analytics (optional)
If you accept analytics, we use Google Analytics to collect information about how the website is used, such as the pages you view, how you reached the website, the type of device and browser you use, your approximate location (country or region) and whether you select certain buttons (for example the LINE, sharing and social media links). If you register your interest, analytics records only that a registration took place. Your email address and other personal details you enter are not sent to Google Analytics.
This information is collected using online identifiers stored in analytics cookies. If you do not accept analytics, no analytics information is collected.
Communications
If you contact us by email, LINE or another communication channel, we may receive and process the information you voluntarily provide in order to respond.
We do not require caddies to submit personal profiles through the holding website.
3. How We Use Your Information
We use personal information to:
- Record your interest in Caddy Connect.
- Send an acknowledgement email.
- Provide relevant pre-launch updates and announce when the service becomes available to golfers.
- Respond to enquiries.
- Manage unsubscribe and deletion requests.
- Maintain the security and operation of our website.
- Understand how the website is used and improve it, using analytics only if you have accepted.
We do not sell personal information or provide our golfer interest list to third parties for their independent marketing.
4. Our Legal Basis
We rely on consent to send golfers the launch and progress updates they have requested.
You can withdraw your consent at any time by unsubscribing or contacting us.
Where appropriate, we rely on legitimate interests to maintain website security, respond to enquiries and keep minimal records necessary to honour unsubscribe requests.
We rely on your consent for optional analytics cookies and similar technologies. You can withdraw that consent at any time (see section 8).
We may also process information where required by law.
5. Storage and Security
We use established cloud hosting, database and email delivery service providers to operate our website and manage communications.
If you accept analytics, we also use Google Analytics, provided by Google, as an external analytics service provider.
These providers process information on our behalf under applicable data protection and security arrangements.
We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal information against unauthorised access, alteration, loss or disclosure.
Access to registration information is restricted to authorised people and systems.
Some service providers may process information outside the United Kingdom. Where required, appropriate safeguards are used to protect international transfers.
This includes our analytics provider, which may process analytics information in other countries, including the United States, if you accept analytics.
6. How Long We Keep Information
Golfer interest registrations are retained for no longer than 24 months from registration, unless you provide fresh consent for continued communications.
Information may be deleted earlier if it is no longer needed or you request its deletion, subject to applicable legal requirements.
If you unsubscribe, we may retain a minimal record of your preference to prevent further unwanted emails.
When the temporary holding website is retired, its registration records will be deleted or, where appropriate, transferred to the operational Caddy Connect platform under applicable privacy requirements and existing consent preferences.
7. Emails and Unsubscribing
After registering your interest, you will receive an acknowledgement email.
We may subsequently contact you about Caddy Connect’s development and its availability to golfers.
You may unsubscribe at any time using the link in our emails or by contacting clubsecretary@caddyconnect.golf.
Unsubscribing is free and does not require creating an account.
8. Cookies, Analytics, External Links and Social Media
Our website uses technical functions necessary for its operation and security. These do not require your consent.
Optional analytics
We use Google Analytics 4, provided by Google, to understand how the website is used so that we can improve it and prepare for Caddy Connect’s launch. Analytics is switched off by default and is only used if you choose Accept analytics in the cookie notice.
If you accept, Google Analytics sets analytics cookies on your device (named _ga and _ga_ followed by an identifier) and collects the technical information described in section 2. We do not use Google’s advertising features: we do not use Google Analytics for advertising, remarketing or personalised ads, and advertising consent is always denied.
If you choose Reject analytics, or make no choice, Google Analytics is not loaded and no analytics information is collected.
Changing your choice
Your choice is remembered in your own browser (using local storage) so that we do not ask you on every page. You can change or withdraw it at any time using the Cookie settings button at the bottom of every page. If you withdraw consent, we stop analytics collection and remove the analytics cookies we can access. Information collected before you withdrew may be kept for a limited period under the retention settings we configure in Google Analytics. Clearing your browser data also resets your choice.
Google processes analytics information on our behalf and under its own terms (see section 5 on international processing).
External links and social media
Our website contains links to external services and social media platforms. These services operate under their own privacy policies and controls.
We are not responsible for the privacy practices of independent third-party websites.
9. Your Rights
Subject to applicable data protection law, you may have the right to:
- Access your personal information.
- Request correction of inaccurate information.
- Request deletion.
- Object to or restrict certain processing.
- Withdraw consent.
- Request data portability where applicable.
- Make a complaint to the relevant data protection authority.
To exercise your rights, contact clubsecretary@caddyconnect.golf.
UK residents may also contact the Information Commissioner’s Office at www.ico.org.uk.
10. Changes to This Policy
We may update this policy to reflect changes to the website, our services or applicable legal requirements.
The latest version will be published on our website.
Before launching the full Caddy Connect platform, we will update our privacy information to reflect any additional personal information collected and the purposes for which it is used.
