Player’s Health needs personal information about your organization, your athletes, coaches and any stakeholder as applicable to provide the Service, and your providing the information to us constitutes your consent to our processing of this information. Additionally, because we provide a wide range of Risk Management and benefits management features, we may collect information about you from your sports organization, rather than directly from you. By submitting information to us, you represent and warrant that you have permission and the authority to do so and that any permission has been granted in accordance with applicable law.

Uses and Disclosures of Your Information
Player’s Health uses the information it collects about you as set forth below:

- To integrate with Third Parties: To support our Users and ensure safety in sports, Player’s Health may integrate our system with third parties. For example, Player’s Health may integrate the Service to support your preferred sports registration service. If you have an independent direct relationship with a third party integrated into the Service, any permissions you may have granted to that third party will govern their use of your data. Otherwise, any third party used by Player’s Health to help provide the Services will not have any independent right to access or use your personal information.
- To communicate with you: Player’s Health wants to help you know how to best take advantage of the Service, especially as we improve and develop new features. We may send messages relating to your use of the Service – for example, we may send you a note that a new concussion legislation has passed. We may also send you messages about Service-related matters through our dashboard or by email. Also, because we want to improve the Service, we may occasionally send promotional materials out via email so that you are able to take advantage of new or unused features. More details about our advertising and marketing activities are provided below. You can control whether you receive future non-Service-related messages by unsubscribing in the message itself.
- To advertise and market to you: As noted above, Player’s Health relies on cookies, beacons, and mobile SDKs to recognize your browser or mobile device in order to serve you ads. These same technologies are used by Player’s Health to analyze the effectiveness of our advertising and email marketing campaigns. Player’s Health may use third party services, data, and software tools to target advertising to you, perform campaign effectiveness analysis, help us identify and reach potential Users, and track the performance of our site and advertising generally. Player’s Health’s third party advertising vendors do not have any independent right to use Player’s Health’s personal information or that of its Users.
- To work with our vendors and service providers: Player’s Health uses third party vendors and service providers to provide the Service to you.

Similarly, Player’s Health’s instance in AWS is not accessible to any Amazon employee except at our request and to carry out our instructions.

We also support secure https access to the Playershealth.com website. To protect any data you store on our servers, we also regularly monitor our system for possible vulnerabilities and attacks.
- As you know, however, the Internet is not a 100% secure environment, and as a result, we cannot ensure or warrant the security of any information that you transmit to us. There is no guarantee that information may not be accessed, disclosed, altered, or destroyed by breach of any of our administrative, technical, or physical safeguards. It is your responsibility to protect the security of your login information. Please help keep your account safe by using a strong password.

Requests may be made only once a year and are free of charge. Under Section 1798.83, we currently do not share any personal information with third parties for their own direct marketing purposes.
- California’s Do-Not-Track Disclosure: As required by the California Online Privacy Protection Act (California Business and Professions Code Sections 22575-22579), Player’s Health notes that although we do our best to honor the privacy preferences of our Users, and have implemented industry standard safeguards as described above, we do not respond to Do-Not-Track signals from your browser at this time due to the lack of a neutral and consistent industry standard. Player’s Health does not collect personal information about your online activities over time and across third party websites or services.
