Collecting Your Data

"Personal data" is information that identifies you as an individual, such as name, photograph and email address. All personal data that you provide to us must be true, complete and accurate, and you must notify us of any changes to such personal data. You must not register under someone else’s name. You must keep your log-in details confidential. You are responsible for all activity under your my-pro account.

In order to register as a PGA Club Professional, you must provide us with your name, email address, golf club attachment, county/dependency/state/province and country of location, which PGA you are a member of and your PGA membership number. You can then add further personal data to your profile on the Site, including a profile picture, your date of birth, place of birth, when you became a professional, your position within your business, and a contact telephone number together with a brief biography and details about the golf clubs you use, your playing record and any sponsors you have.

In order to register as a player, you must provide us with your name, email address, county/dependency/state/province and country of location, gender, whether you are a member of the club where the PGA Professional is located, whether you are left or right handed and details about your golf handicap. On registration, you must add details of the golf clubs that you use, assess your performance with each club and set a performance objective. You may also add scorecards to update your on-course analysis data.

As a PGA Club Professional you may choose to provide us with the email address of a friend, contact or other individual who you believe may wish to join my-pro. If you do so, you must first obtain the consent of the individual. We shall then send an email to the individual on your behalf explaining that you provided their email address to us so that we could contact them and invite them to join my-pro.

We use cookies on this site to better your experience when you visit us. Cookies are small files saved on your computer's hard drive that track, save and store information about your interactions and usage of a website. There are two types of cookie. A "persistent" cookie will remain valid until its set expiry date unless it is deleted by the user before the expiry date. A "session" cookie will expire at the end of the user session, when the web browser is closed.

We use "persistent" cookies so that we may provide you with a tailored experience every time you visit us.

Our website does have partner links and therefore non my-pro cookies may be stored on your computer if and when you visit our partners. When you visit a partner no personal identifiable information is stored, saved or collected by them unless you voluntarily submit this detail.

If you wish to deny the use and saving of cookies from this website on to your computer's hard drive you should take the necessary steps within your web browsers security settings to block all cookies from this website and its external serving partners.

We also use my-pro Analytics to monitor how the my-pro website is used. my-pro Analytics collects information anonymously and generates reports detailing information such as the number of visits to the system, where visitors generally came from, how long they stayed on the system, and which pages they visited. my-pro Analytics does not place persistent cookies on your computer's hard drive.

Security

We adopt appropriate data collection, storage and processing practices and security measures to protect against unauthorised access, alteration, disclosure or destruction of your Personal Identifiable Information and data stored on our site. Private data exchange between the site and its user happens over a SSL secured communication channel and is encrypted and protected with digital signatures. However, no system can be completely secure. Therefore, although we take steps to secure your information, we do not promise that your personal data or other content that you upload to the system will always remain secure.

Advertising

Our objective at my-pro is to keep our site free from excessive and inappropriate advertising. With this in mind our site "Sponsor" and "Partners" will only be able to communicate with our users through relevant functions within the site.

The majority of our "Partners" are leading manufacturers operating within the golf industry. Our site "Sponsor" may operate outside of the golf industry. Where appropriate we will provide links to their websites should our users wish to learn more about their products and activities.

We do not control the content or links that appear on our "Partners" websites and are not responsible for the practices employed by them. In addition, these sites or services, including their content and links, may be constantly changing. These sites and services may have their own privacy policies and customer service policies. Browsing and interaction on any other website, including websites which have a link to our site, is subject to that website's own terms and policies.

When you are logged in to your profile you can access and edit your personal details from all pages on the site by simply going to your name in the top right hand corner of the screen and selecting "Profile" in the drop down menu.

You have the right to obtain from us a copy of the personal data that we hold for you, and to require us to correct errors in the personal data that we process for you if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
