This information may be processed to provide the requested communication functionality, maintain the service, protect users, investigate abuse, and provide customer support.

2. Google Account and Gmail Data

CSN may allow a user to voluntarily connect their Google account to CSN.

Connecting a Google account is optional and occurs only after the user authorizes access through Google's OAuth authorization process.

Depending on the features the user enables and permissions granted, CSN may request permission to:

  • Send email through the user's Gmail account;
  • Access or read email information necessary to provide user-requested recruiting email features;
  • Display relevant email or response information within CSN;
  • Help the user manage recruiting communications and coach responses.

CSN does not obtain a user's Google password.

How We Use Google User Data

Google user data accessed by CSN is used only to provide or improve user-facing functionality that the user has requested or authorized, such as allowing an athlete to send recruiting emails from their own account and view or manage recruiting-related responses within CSN.

  • CSN will not sell Google user data.
  • CSN will not use or transfer Google user data for personalized advertising, retargeting, interest-based advertising, creditworthiness, lending, or data-broker purposes.
  • CSN will not use Google Workspace user data to develop, improve, or train generalized artificial intelligence or machine-learning models.
  • Human access to Google user data is prohibited except where the user has provided affirmative consent for specific data, where access is necessary for security or abuse investigation, where required by law, or where otherwise permitted under Google's applicable policies.
  • CSN's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.
  • Users may disconnect their Google account and revoke CSN's Google permissions through their Google account permissions.
  • CSN requests only Google permissions reasonably necessary to provide the functionality selected by the user.

3. Usage and Technical Information

When users access CSN, we and our service providers may automatically collect technical and usage information such as:

We may use this information to operate, secure, analyze, troubleshoot, and improve CSN.

4. Location Information

Certain CSN functionality may use location information when necessary and when permission has been provided.

Depending on the feature, this may include precise or approximate location.

Location information may be used to provide location-dependent functionality, relevant recruiting information, events, schools, opportunities, or other features requested by the user.

Users can control device-level location permissions through their device settings.

5. How We Use Information

  • Enforce our agreements and policies.

6. How Information Is Shared

CSN does not sell personal information or Google user data to data brokers.

We may share information only as reasonably necessary to operate CSN, provide functionality requested by users, or comply with legal obligations.

Service Providers

We may use third-party companies to provide infrastructure or functionality such as:

  • Cloud hosting
  • Database infrastructure
  • Authentication
  • Email connectivity
  • Analytics
  • Error monitoring
  • Communications
  • Customer support
  • Payment processing
  • Application development or infrastructure
  • Security
  • Other technology services

These providers may process information only as necessary to provide services to CSN and are expected to protect information consistent with applicable contractual and legal requirements.

Where Apple requirements apply, third parties receiving user data are required to provide the same or equivalent protection of user data as described in this Privacy Policy.

Coaches, Recruiters, and Other Users

CSN is designed in part to help athletes participate in the recruiting process.

Information a user chooses to make available through an athlete profile or explicitly shares may therefore be visible to or shared with:

  • College coaches
  • Recruiting personnel
  • Athletic programs
  • Teams or organizations
  • Other CSN users
  • Individuals receiving a shared profile link

Users should not include information in publicly or broadly shared portions of their profiles that they do not want others to see.

Parents and Athletes

Where parent and athlete accounts are connected, certain recruiting, account, or profile information may be accessible between the linked accounts as part of CSN's functionality.

Legal and Safety Reasons

We may disclose information when reasonably necessary to:

  • Comply with applicable law or legal process;
  • Respond to valid government or regulatory requests;
  • Protect the rights, property, or safety of CSN, our users, or others;
  • Investigate fraud, abuse, security incidents, or violations of our terms;
  • Establish, exercise, or defend legal claims.

Business Transactions

If CSN is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganization, bankruptcy, or sale of some or all of its business or assets, information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.

Where Google Workspace user data is implicated, any transfer will be handled subject to Google's applicable Limited Use requirements, including any required user consent.

7. Advertising and Marketing

CSN may use information such as contact information and interactions with CSN to communicate with users about CSN products, services, events, recruiting resources, or offers where permitted by law.

Users may opt out of promotional emails by using the unsubscribe mechanism provided in those communications.

Transactional, account, security, or service-related communications may still be sent when necessary to provide the service.

Google Workspace user data obtained through restricted or sensitive Google scopes is not used for advertising, retargeting, personalized advertising, or interest-based advertising.

8. User-Generated Content and Community Features

CSN may include community, messaging, profile, commenting, posting, or other user-generated-content functionality.

Information users post in areas designed to be visible to other users may be viewed by those users.

Users are responsible for the information they choose to publish or share.

CSN may moderate, restrict, remove, or review content when necessary to enforce platform rules, respond to reports, protect users, comply with law, or maintain platform safety.

Users may report inappropriate content or behavior and may have access to controls for blocking other users where applicable.

9. Children's and Teen Privacy

CSN provides sports recruiting and development services that may be used by high-school athletes, some of whom may be minors.

Where required by applicable law, we may require involvement, authorization, or consent from a parent or legal guardian before collecting or processing certain personal information from minors.

Parents and guardians should supervise minors' use of CSN and review the information their athlete provides or makes publicly available.

CSN does not knowingly use children's personal information for unlawful behavioral advertising or sell children's personal information.

If a parent or guardian believes that information relating to their child has been collected or processed improperly, they may contact CSN to request review or deletion.

10. Data Retention

CSN retains personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including providing the service, maintaining accounts, satisfying legitimate business requirements, resolving disputes, enforcing agreements, maintaining security, and complying with legal obligations.

Retention periods may differ depending on the type of information and why it was collected.

When information is no longer reasonably required, CSN may delete, anonymize, or otherwise securely dispose of it, subject to applicable legal requirements and technical limitations such as backup retention cycles.

Google user data is retained only as necessary to provide the user-authorized functionality and subject to Google's applicable policies.

11. Account and Data Deletion

Users may request deletion of their account and associated personal information through available account controls or by contacting CSN.

Upon receiving a valid deletion request, CSN will delete or de-identify information as required by applicable law, except information that we are permitted or required to retain for purposes such as:

  • Legal compliance;
  • Fraud prevention;
  • Security;
  • Financial or transaction records;
  • Resolving disputes;
  • Enforcing agreements.

Information contained in backups may remain temporarily until those backups are overwritten or deleted according to our normal retention procedures.

Content previously shared with another user or third party may remain with that recipient after the user's account is deleted.

12. Revoking Permissions and Consent

Users may withdraw certain permissions at any time.

Depending on the permission, users may:

  • Change permissions through their device settings;
  • Disconnect third-party integrations;
  • Revoke Google access through their Google Account;
  • Unsubscribe from marketing communications;
  • Delete content;
  • Request account deletion;
  • Contact CSN regarding privacy choices.

Revoking a permission may prevent certain CSN functionality from operating.

13. Data Security

CSN uses reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, alteration, loss, misuse, or disclosure.

Where appropriate, information is protected through safeguards such as authentication, access controls, and encryption in transit.

No internet-connected system can be guaranteed to be completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Users are responsible for protecting their account credentials and should notify CSN if they believe their account has been compromised.

14. Third-Party Services and Links

CSN may contain integrations with or links to third-party services, including Google and other service providers.

A user's interaction with a third-party service may also be governed by that third party's privacy policy and terms.

CSN is not responsible for independent third-party websites or services that are outside CSN's control.

15. Cookies and Similar Technologies

Our websites and services may use cookies, local storage, pixels, SDKs, or similar technologies where applicable to:

  • Maintain sessions;
  • Authenticate users;
  • Remember preferences;
  • Provide functionality;
  • Understand usage;
  • Measure performance;
  • Maintain security;
  • Measure marketing effectiveness where permitted.

Users may have controls over some of these technologies through their browser, device, or applicable consent settings.

16. U.S. State Privacy Rights

Depending on where a user resides and applicable law, users may have rights regarding their personal information, which may include the right to:

  • Request access to personal information;
  • Request correction of inaccurate information;
  • Request deletion;
  • Obtain information about categories of information collected or disclosed;
  • Obtain a portable copy of certain information;
  • Opt out of certain uses or disclosures where legally applicable;
  • Appeal certain privacy decisions;
  • Not be discriminated against for exercising applicable privacy rights.

CSN will process valid requests in accordance with applicable law.

We may need to verify a user's identity before fulfilling certain requests.

17. International Users

CSN is based in the United States.

If users access CSN from outside the United States, their information may be processed or stored in the United States or other jurisdictions where CSN or its service providers operate.

Where required, CSN will take appropriate measures relating to international transfers of personal information.

18. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as CSN evolves, our practices change, or legal and regulatory requirements change.

When we make material changes, we may provide notice through the app, website, email, or another appropriate method.

If a change materially affects how Google user data is accessed or used, we will provide notice and obtain consent where required before using that data for the new purpose.

The effective or last-updated date at the top of this Privacy Policy identifies the current version.
