Privacy Policy

Your privacy is important to us. It is Société Nautique de Genève’s policy to respect your privacy and to comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding any information we may collect while using the MySuiviRegate application.

This policy takes effect on June 7, 2021 and was last updated on June 7, 2021.

Information we collect

The information we collect includes both the information you knowingly and actively provide to us when you register and participate in a regatta, and any information sent automatically by your devices as part of accessing our services.

Log data

When you start tracking, and only during a regatta, our servers can automatically record the standard data provided by the application. It can include the location of your device as well as the time and date of your tracking.

Please note that although this information is not personally identifiable on its own, it may be possible to combine it with other data to personally identify individual persons.

Collecting and using information

The MySuiviRegate application does not collect any personal information identifying you as a user. However, it does collect location information when you are actively participating in a regatta.

Security of your personal information

When we collect and process information, and while we retain such information, we will protect it by commercially acceptable means to prevent loss and theft, as well as unauthorized access, disclosure, copying, use or modification.

While we do our best to protect the personal information you provide to us, please be advised that no method of electronic transmission or storage is 100% secure and no one can guarantee absolute data security. We will comply with the laws applicable to us in respect of any data breach.

For each regatta in which you participate, you will receive a PIN code that will enable you to launch the MySuiviRegate application, ensuring the security of your own information within the limits of our services.

How long do we keep your personal information?

We only keep your personal information for as long as necessary. This period may depend on how we use your information in accordance with this Privacy Policy. If your personal information is no longer required, we will delete it or make it anonymous by removing all details that identify you.

However, if necessary, we may retain your personal information for our compliance with a legal, accounting or reporting obligation or for archiving purposes in the public interest, for scientific or historical research or for statistical purposes.
