1. WHAT WE COLLECT
“Personal Information” means information that identifies, relates to, describes, is capable of being associated with, or could reasonably be linked, directly or indirectly, with a particular consumer or household. It can be used to identify you or contact you, but it can also be used to understand your behavior, preferences, and website navigation history.
Information which is not capable of reasonably being associated with an individual or household is not Personal Information and is not subject to this Policy.
We get information about you in a range of ways.
- Direct Collection. Personal Information directly collected may include your name, photographs, home address, phone number, date of birth, e-mail address, and/or billing information. For some activities, we may ask you to create a username and password and/or to provide other, Personal Information such as your age, gender, education level, information related to your usage of our Service (such as products, categories, and activities you search for), and content contributed to or posted on our Service (such as comments, blog entries, and reviews), and we may combine such information with other Personal Information. We do not require this information to gain access to our Service; however, you will not be able to utilize certain features that require registration or receive materials such as newsletters unless such information is provided.

In addition, we may use such information for security, system integrity (the prevention of hacking, etc.), or enforcement purposes.
-
Tracking Technologies. We may automatically log information using “Cookies” or related technologies (e.g. eTags, zero-pixel GIFs, or LSOs). While these are methods of indirect collection of data, you have some ability to manage these technologies via your browser or computer settings. This is different than the other forms of indirect collection of data, as those collections of data are fundamentally a component of how the website technology works.
For example, Cookies are small data files stored on your hard drive by a website. We may use both session Cookies (which expire once you close your web browser) and persistent Cookies (which stay on your computer until you delete them) to provide you with a more personal and interactive experience on our Site. Additionally, we may use “first-party” Cookies (or Cookies which we control) as well as “third party” Cookies (or Cookies which we allow a third party to set on our website).
You can typically remove and reject cookies from our Site with your browser settings. Many browsers are set to accept cookies until you change your settings. If you remove or reject our cookies, it could affect how our Site works for you.
The major browsers have attempted to implement the draft “Do Not Track” (“DNT”) standard of the World Wide Web Consortium (“W3C”) in their latest releases. As this standard has not been finalized, our website is not compatible with DNT and so does not recognize DNT settings. For information on all of these categories of cookies, and for more information generally on cookies, please refer to www.aboutcookies.org.

5. CALIFORNIA PRIVACY RIGHTS
California's Civil Code section 1798.100 et seq. provides residents of California a number of rights as they relate to Personal Information. These are the “right to know”, the “right to delete”, and the “right to opt-out”.
Right to Know. You may request LA Golf provide you the specific pieces of Personal Information that LA Golf has about you; categories of Personal Information we have collected about you; categories of sources from which the Personal Information is collected; categories of Personal Information that LA Golf sold or disclosed for a business purpose about you; categories of third parties to whom the Personal Information was sold or disclosed for a business purpose; and the business or commercial purpose for collecting or selling Personal Information. Please note that much of the information you can make a request for is already contained in this Policy. Should you wish to exercise this right, please see the section below which explains how to do so. If you do not have an account with LA Golf, we may ask for some Personal Information in order to verify your identity and your rights to the data subject to your request.
Right to Delete. California law gives residents a limited right to request deletion of their Personal Information. However, this right is limited by a number of exceptions. Fundamentally, if LA Golf has a permissible need to retain Personal Information, we are not under an obligation to delete such information, even when requested. Generally, we retain Personal Information so we may complete the transaction for which the Personal Information was collected, provide a good or service requested by you, or reasonably anticipated within the context of our ongoing business relationship with you, or otherwise perform a contract between us and you; detect security incidents, protect against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity; or prosecute those responsible for that activity; debug to identify and repair errors that impair existing intended functionality of our online properties; enable solely internal uses that are reasonably aligned with your expectations based on your relationship with LA Golf; comply with a legal obligation; or otherwise use your Personal Information, internally, in a lawful manner that is compatible with the context in which your provided the information. As such, we generally do not accept requests to delete Personal Information. However, we will respond to requests to remove Personal Information from some of our systems as a part of a request to close or otherwise disable a membership account. If you would like to request deletion of Personal Information, please see the section below which explains how to do so. If you do not have an account with LA Golf, we may ask for some Personal Information in order to verify your identity and your rights to the data subject to your request.
Right to Opt-Out. LA Golf does not sell your Personal Information to third parties, and as such there is no need for you to opt-out of the sale of your Personal Information. However, we do share Personal Information with third parties for marketing purposes and permit our marketing partners to collect data directly from you. You may choose to opt-out of the sharing of your Personal Information with third parties for marketing purposes at any time by submitting a request in writing to Our contact address below . Please note that this opt-out does not prohibit disclosure made for non-marketing purposes.
Designating an Authorized Agent. California law permits California residents to designate an agent to manage their rights under California law. If you would like to designate an agent to manage your privacy preferences, you may do so using the mechanisms noted below under “Exercising California Privacy Rights”. Note that If you do not have an account with LA Golf, we may ask for some Personal Information in order to verify your identity and your rights to the data subject to your request. We will also need sufficient Personal Information about your authorized agent to be able to identify them. As part of this process, you must have permission from your authorized agent to disclose their Personal Information to us for the purpose of acting as your agent.
Non-discrimination. California law does not permit LA Golf to discriminate against you because you exercised any your rights under this title, including, but not limited to, by: denying you access to goods or services; charging different prices or rates for goods or services, including through the use of discounts or other benefits or imposing penalties; providing a different level or quality of goods or services; suggesting that you will receive a different price or rate for goods or services or a different level or quality of goods or services.
