Privacy Policy

Last updated: 7 August 2026

Who we are

IPSC Calendar (ipsc-calendar.com) is an aggregator of practical-shooting matches. Data controller: the site operator, reachable at the contact form.

What we collect and why

• E‑mail subscriptions — your e‑mail address and alert preferences (countries, disciplines, levels, alert types). Legal basis: consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a)), collected with double opt-in. We record the consent text and timestamp. Used solely to send the alerts you selected.
• Match submissions — organizer contact details you provide with a listing. Used to review and communicate about the listing.
• Contact messages — name, e‑mail and message content, kept for correspondence.
• Technical logs — standard web-server logs (IP address, user agent) kept short-term for security and abuse prevention (legitimate interest). Rate-limiting stores a salted hash of your IP, not the IP itself.

What we don't do

• No advertising trackers, no analytics cookies, no sale or sharing of your data with third parties for marketing.
• Only strictly necessary cookies: a session cookie (forms/security) and, for administrators, a login session.

Processors

Alert e‑mails are delivered via Brevo (Sendinblue GmbH, EU) acting as our processor. Map tiles are loaded from OpenStreetMap servers when you open a map view; your browser sends them your IP address as with any embedded resource.

Retention

Subscriber data is kept until you unsubscribe (plus a short suppression record so we don't e‑mail you again). Submissions and contact messages are kept as long as needed for the listing or correspondence.

Your rights

You can access, correct, export or delete your data at any time: every e‑mail contains a preferences link and a one-click unsubscribe. For anything else — or complaints — contact us; you also have the right to complain to your data-protection authority (in Slovenia: Informacijski pooblaščenec).
