Privacy

Your data and choices

Account information is private by default. You decide whether your owner name may be public.

Privacy at a glance

Dog profiles, events and competition results form a public sport archive. Account details, contact information and microchip numbers are not public.

Public owner name is off by default. It can be enabled or withdrawn at any time in My Scorebook.

Who is responsible

Thomas Lindgren Holmedal is the data controller for Canine Scorebook. Privacy, account and data requests can be sent to support@caninescorebook.com.

The website and its software are created and maintained by Feralcode.

What we use and why

Public sport records

Dog profiles, registered names, breeds, sex, birth dates, photos, events, placements and competition results may be public when recorded. This supports the legitimate interest in maintaining an accurate and useful historical result archive under GDPR Article 6(1)(f).

Accounts and scorebook features

We use username, email address, a securely hashed password, session information, password reset requests, favorites, privacy choices, dog requests, change requests and messages to provide the account and the features you ask for. Password reset tokens are stored only as hashes. The legal basis is performance of the user service under GDPR Article 6(1)(b).

Public owner name

An owner name is shown publicly only after an explicit choice in My Scorebook. The legal basis is consent under GDPR Article 6(1)(a). Withdrawing consent hides the name again without affecting the dog’s competition results.

Security and administration

Session data, server logs and administrative change history may be used to protect accounts, prevent misuse, correct errors and preserve database integrity. The legal basis is legitimate interests under GDPR Article 6(1)(f).

Sources, sharing and cookies

Where information comes from

Account information comes directly from the user. Sport records may come from published competition sources, result providers, organizers or approved manual entries. User reports and administrator reviews may correct or complete the archive.

What an account requires

A username, email address and password are required to create and use an account. Without them, Canine Scorebook cannot provide login or account recovery. Showing an owner name publicly is always optional.

Who can receive information

Public result data can be viewed by anyone. Private data is available only to the user where relevant and the administrator. Oderland provides web hosting and email delivery. The primary result database is privately operated by the data controller and is not outsourced to a third-party database provider. Personal data is not sold.

International data transfers

Oderland stores its hosting and email data in Sweden. The current service setup does not routinely transfer private account data outside the European Economic Area. If this changes, Canine Scorebook will use a valid GDPR safeguard and update this information.

Cookies and advertising

The site uses the essential canine_scorebook session cookie for login, security and form protection. It expires when the browser session ends. The web server may retain standard technical access logs and aggregated visitor statistics for operation and security. Canine Scorebook does not use optional tracking cookies or third-party advertising scripts. Direct sponsor images are served from this website. The sponsor system records aggregate advertisement views, once per visitor session, placement and day, together with sponsor-link clicks. It does not build advertising profiles. Following a sponsor link takes you to that sponsor’s website.

Automated decisions

Canine Rating 1.0 and sport statistics are calculations based on competition data. They do not make decisions about people and have no legal or similarly significant effect on a user.

Retention and deletion

Account information is kept while the account is active. Deleting an account removes the login, favorites, connection requests and personal settings, including consent to show the owner name.

A password reset link expires after 60 minutes and can be used once. Used and expired reset records are removed during routine cleanup.

Dogs, owner records, events and results may remain for as long as they are needed to maintain the historical sport archive. Administrative history and security logs are kept only as long as needed to protect the service, document changes and investigate errors.

Your rights

Depending on the situation, you may request access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection or data portability. You can withdraw public-name consent at any time. A request to remove data from the historical result archive will be reviewed against the reason the data is kept and the rights of others.

Email support@caninescorebook.com to exercise a right or ask a privacy question. Include enough information to identify the relevant account or record, but never send a password.

You may submit a complaint to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (IMY) or to the data protection authority in the EEA country where you live, work or believe an infringement occurred.
