Data controller: Rapid Sports Pty Ltd (Namibia, company no. 2023/1036), 109 John Meinert Street, Windhoek, Namibia.
Privacy contact: admin@rapidsportss.com
1. Data we collect
We collect the information athletes, recruiters and institutions provide during sign up, onboarding and ongoing use — including identity, contact details, performance data, video links and (for youth athletes) parent or guardian contact information.
2. How we use it
Athlete data is used to build verified profiles, generate analytics and AI summaries, and (when public) make profiles discoverable to recruiters. Recruiter data is used to enable search, shortlists and contact features.
3. Youth athletes
Profiles for athletes under 18 require a verified parent or guardian contact and explicit consent before any public profile is published.
4. Storage & security
All data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest. Access is controlled by row-level security policies. Payment information is handled exclusively by PayPal — Rapid Sports never sees full card details.
5. Sharing
We never sell athlete data. Public profiles are visible only when an athlete (or guardian) explicitly opts in. Private profiles are visible only to the athlete and their authorised analyst team.
6. Your rights
You may request access, correction, deletion, portability or restriction of your personal data at any time via admin@rapidsportss.com. We respond within 30 days. To help us verify your request, please email from the address associated with your account.
EU / EEA & UK residents (GDPR / UK GDPR): you have the right to access, rectify, erase, restrict, port or object to processing of your personal data, to withdraw consent, and to lodge a complaint with your local supervisory authority (in the UK, the ICO at ico.org.uk).
California residents (CCPA / CPRA): you have the right to know what personal information we collect, to request deletion or correction, to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information and of profiling for cross-context behavioural advertising, and to non-discrimination for exercising these rights.

8. Payment data (PayPal)
When you pay through Rapid Sports, your card and bank details are collected and processed by PayPal directly under PayPal's Privacy Statement. Rapid Sports receives only a transaction id, the amount, currency, payer email, and PayPal's status updates via webhook. We never see or store your full card number, CVV, or banking credentials.
9. Jurisdiction
Rapid Sports operates from the Republic of Namibia. Personal data may be processed and stored in data centres outside Namibia and Zimbabwe (including the European Union and the United States) by our infrastructure providers. We rely on contractual safeguards with these providers to protect your data.
10. Cookies & similar technologies
We use strictly necessary cookies to keep you signed in and to remember your cookie choices, and (with consent where required) analytics cookies to understand how the product is used. We do not use advertising cookies and we do not sell or share personal information for cross-context behavioural advertising. You can change your choices at any time via Cookie preferences in the footer.
