Formula D1 ("Formula D1," "we," "our," or "us") provides an online platform that helps student-athletes discover college athletic programs, organize recruiting opportunities, and communicate with college coaches.
This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you visit formulad1.com, use app.formulad1.com, or interact with our services.
1. Information We Collect
Account Information
When you register, we may collect your name, email address, account credentials, Google account identifier if you sign in with Google, and information necessary to authenticate and maintain your account.
Athlete Profile Information
We collect information you choose to provide, which may include:
- Name, high school, and graduation year
- Sports, positions, athletic measurements, and performance statistics
- Recruiting preferences and preferred college divisions
- Highlight film links and athletic profiles
- Schools you select, outreach drafts, and recruiting activity
Connected Google Accounts
If you connect your Google account, we may access information authorized through Google's permission process to provide sign-in and Gmail-related functionality.
When you authorize Gmail access, Formula D1 uses that authorization to support recruiting emails and related account functionality.
We do not sell Google user data or use it to target advertisements.
Our use and transfer of information received from Google APIs complies with the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
Coach and Recruiting Information
Our platform may process information about college athletic programs and coaches, including names, positions, professional contact details, and recruiting-related communication activity.
Where these features are available, we may record email delivery or opening events and engagement with tracked recruiting or highlight-film links. Such tracking may involve technical information such as timestamps, IP addresses, device information, and link interactions.
Payment Information
Payments and subscriptions are processed through Stripe. We may receive billing status, subscription identifiers, payment confirmation, and limited transaction details necessary to administer subscriptions.
Stripe processes payment-card information according to its own privacy practices. Formula D1 does not need to store full payment-card numbers to provide the service.
Technical Information and Cookies
We may collect technical information such as IP addresses, browser information, device characteristics, session information, logs, and information about how the service operates.
We may use essential cookies, browser storage, or similar technologies to maintain sessions, authenticate users, and protect the platform.
Additional analytics or advertising technologies, if introduced, will be disclosed and managed according to applicable law.
Support Requests
If you contact support, we may process your account email, request category, messages, screenshots or other attachments you choose to provide, and information needed to respond to your request.
2. How We Use Information
We use information to:
- Create, authenticate, and maintain accounts
- Personalize recruiting recommendations and athlete profiles
- Provide school discovery, recruiting templates, and outreach functionality
- Connect authorized Gmail accounts and facilitate user-directed communication
- Display recruiting engagement information
- Process subscriptions and provide customer support
- Detect fraud, prevent unauthorized access, and enforce platform rules
- Improve reliability, performance, and security
- Meet applicable legal obligations
4. Gmail Access and User Control
Connecting Gmail is optional unless required for a feature you choose to use.
Formula D1 accesses Google information only within the permissions you authorize and for disclosed functionality.
You can revoke Formula D1's access through your Google Account permissions. Revoking access may disable Gmail-dependent features.
Google data is handled subject to applicable Google API policies and the retention practices described here.
6. Data Security
We take steps intended to protect personal information appropriate to the nature of the service.
No internet service can guarantee absolute security.
7. Data Retention
We retain personal information for as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, maintain security, meet legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements.
Retention periods vary by data category and purpose.
8. Your Privacy Choices
You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information associated with your account, subject to applicable law and legitimate retention requirements.
You may also disconnect authorized Google access and request information about our privacy practices.
Where applicable state privacy laws provide additional rights, we will honor those rights as required.
Submit requests by email to jack@acquisitionenterprises.net. Please include your Formula D1 account email so we can locate your account.
9. Children and Minors
Formula D1 is intended for individuals aged 13 or older and is not directed to children under 13.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without legally required parental consent.
If we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under 13 without the necessary consent, we will take appropriate steps to stop unauthorized collection and delete the information or otherwise comply with applicable law.
If you believe a child under 13 has provided information, contact us at jack@acquisitionenterprises.net.
10. International Users
Information may be processed and stored in the United States or other locations where our service providers operate, subject to applicable legal protections.
11. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as our services or legal obligations change. We will publish the updated policy with a revised effective date and provide additional notice where required.
