Caddie IQ Privacy Policy

What Caddie IQ is
Caddie IQ is a golf app made by Otti Coded: GPS yardages, a golf bag, round scoring, swing video tools and Fairway Coach golf tips. This page explains what data the app uses and why. It covers the Caddie IQ app only.
Your account
You sign in with Apple or Google through Clerk, our sign-in provider. Clerk stores your name, email address and a user ID. If you use Sign in with Apple and hide your email, we only get Apple's relay address.
Clerk also stores how many free Fairway Coach answers you have used.
Location
With your permission, the app reads your location on your phone to show yardages from where you stand and how far courses are. Your location stays on your phone. We do not send it to our server or sell it.
Live weather is looked up for the course you are playing (the course's position, not yours) from Open-Meteo.
Rounds, scores and shots
Your golf bag, rounds, scores, tracked shots and notes are saved on your phone. They are not uploaded to our server.
Camera and swing videos
With your permission, the camera films your swing for Slow-Mo Replay, Swing Breakdown and Swing Report. The app records video only, never sound.
Swing videos, the body positions read from them, and their results are saved on your phone. They are not uploaded to our server.
When you import a swing, you pick the video in Apple's photo picker, and the app only gets that one video.
Fairway Coach
Before your first question, the app asks your permission to send questions to an outside service. Nothing is sent until you agree, and the rest of the app works if you say no.
When you ask Fairway Coach a question, the question text is sent through our server to OpenAI to write the answer. We send the question only, not your name or email. OpenAI does not use API data to train its models.
Subscriptions
Payments are handled by Apple. RevenueCat keeps a record of your subscription under your Caddie IQ user ID so Premium works on your devices. We never see your card details.
Maps and course data
Satellite map tiles come from Esri. Course and green outlines come from OpenStreetMap. Green slopes come from USGS 3DEP lidar elevation data, bundled in the app.
No ads, no selling
Caddie IQ has no ads and no ad tracking. We do not sell or share your personal data for advertising.
Deleting your data
In the app, go to Me, then the menu, then Delete Account. This deletes your Clerk account (name, email, coach count) and erases the app's data on your phone, including swing videos.
Deleting your account does not cancel a subscription. Cancel it in your Apple Account settings under Subscriptions. Apple and RevenueCat keep purchase records as required for billing and tax.
Children
Caddie IQ is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their data.
