PRIVACY POLICY
Youthlete Academy understands how important your privacy is, and how much more important it is when the information concerns a child. This privacy policy (the "Privacy Policy") sets out the privacy policies and practices for 15526515 Canada Inc. and its subsidiaries and affiliates (collectively, "Youthlete Academy") with respect to how Youthlete Academy collects personal information about you and about the athlete you enrol. It also describes how Youthlete Academy maintains, uses, and discloses personal information. This Privacy Policy also sets out how you can access certain information that Youthlete Academy may collect.
In this Privacy Policy, personal information means information about an individual whose identity is apparent or can be reasonably ascertained from the information as further defined under applicable privacy laws ("Personal Information"). Personal Information does not include any information that is aggregated or otherwise de-identified.
Please note that the Site may contain links to other third-party websites that are not controlled or operated by Youthlete Academy. This Privacy Policy does not apply to such third-party websites, and Youthlete Academy is not responsible for the content of such third-party websites or the privacy practices of such third parties. Youthlete Academy encourages you to request and review the privacy policies of any third parties upon disclosing Personal Information to such parties or when visiting such third-party websites.
1. Consent of Collection of Information
By submitting Personal Information to Youthlete Academy and its Site or any of its service providers, you agree and consent to the collection of that Personal Information and consent to its use, disclosure, and transfer in accordance with the provisions of this Privacy Policy. You may always refuse or withdraw your consent by contacting Youthlete Academy at getmoving@youthleteacademy.ca. You understand that if you withdraw your consent, Youthlete Academy may not be able to continue to offer its services and provide its information to you.
2. Athletes Under 18 and Parental Consent
Youthlete Academy provides athletic development programming to young athletes, most of whom are under the age of eighteen (18). We therefore collect Personal Information about children, and we do so only with the consent of a parent or legal guardian.
2.1 Who may register. Accounts, bookings, and purchases must be created and made by a parent or legal guardian aged 18 or over. Athletes under 18 must not register, purchase, or provide Personal Information to us directly.
2.2 What we collect about an athlete. With parental or guardian consent, we may collect and hold the following about an enrolled athlete: name; date of birth or age; sex; primary sport, club or team; emergency contact details; relevant medical, injury or allergy information voluntarily disclosed for the athlete's safety; attendance records; and assessment data.
2.3 Assessment data. Where an athlete participates in a Combine, a FLY skill assessment, or another evaluation, we record performance measurements. These may include timed speed and agility results, jump and strength measurements, conditioning results, movement quality ratings, and biometric measurements including height, weight and body composition. We use this data to produce the athlete's scorecard and progress reports, to compare the athlete against their own previous results, and to build de-identified normative reference data by age and sex. Because this is sensitive information about a child, we ask the parent or legal guardian for express consent to collect it at the point of booking an assessment, separately from these general terms.
2.4 Who sees assessment data. An athlete's individual results are shared with the athlete and with their parent or legal guardian. Where an athlete is assessed as part of a team booking, aggregate and leaderboard results may be shared with that team's coaching staff; the parent or guardian may ask us in writing to exclude their athlete from any team report or leaderboard. We do not publish an identifiable athlete's results without the written consent of their parent or legal guardian.
2.5 Photographs and video. We may photograph or film sessions for coaching and promotional purposes. Consent for the use of an athlete's image is governed by our separate Media Release Agreement, which is signed by the athlete's parent or legal guardian. A parent or legal guardian may ask us to stop using a particular image at any time by writing to getmoving@youthleteacademy.ca. On such a request we will stop using the image going forward and remove it from material under our control; we cannot recall material already distributed by third parties.
2.6 Withdrawal, access and deletion. A parent or legal guardian may at any time request access to, correction of, or deletion of their athlete's Personal Information by writing to getmoving@youthleteacademy.ca. We will respond within a reasonable period and in accordance with applicable privacy law.
2.7 Retention. We retain athlete assessment data for as long as it is useful for tracking that athlete's development, and thereafter only in de-identified form as part of our normative reference data, unless deletion is requested.
3. Revisions to this Privacy Policy
Youthlete Academy reserves the right, in Youthlete Academy's sole discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions of this Privacy Policy at any time and from time to time, without prior notice to you. Youthlete Academy will treat your continued use of the Site following such revision as your acceptance of the revised terms. All revisions will be posted to the Site and will apply to any Personal Information collected on or after the date posted. Youthlete Academy will obtain the necessary consents required under applicable privacy laws if it seeks to collect, use, or disclose Personal Information for purposes other than those to which consent has been obtained, unless otherwise required or permitted by law.
4. Personal Information
4.1 What do we collect?
Youthlete Academy may directly collect the parent or guardian's name, address, phone number, and email address, together with the athlete information described in section 2.
