Introduction
Welcome to Moto Race Calendar. We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This privacy policy explains how we handle your information when you use our website.
Who We Are
Moto Race Calendar is a motorcycle racing schedule aggregation service available at moto-race-cal.app. We provide unified race calendars for MotoGP, WorldSBK (WSBK), and British Superbikes (BSB).
Information We Collect
Information You Provide
We do not require you to create an account or provide any personal information to use our service. All features are available without registration.
Email Notifications (Optional)
If you choose to subscribe to email reminders, we collect and store your email address and notification preferences to send you notifications about upcoming race events. This is entirely optional and you can unsubscribe at any time.
Email Tracking: To improve our service and delivery reliability, we track basic email interactions:
- Delivery Status: Whether emails were successfully delivered or encountered errors (bounces, spam blocks)
- Link Clicks: When you click links in our emails, we log the click through a redirect to understand which content is most useful
- Open Tracking: We may track when emails are opened to understand engagement and delivery success
This tracking data is stored in our database and used solely to improve email delivery and content. It is not shared with third parties. You can opt out at any time by unsubscribing from email notifications. Your email address is used solely for sending race reminders and related tracking, and is not shared with third parties or used for marketing purposes.
Information Automatically Collected
We automatically collect minimal information to improve your experience and understand how users interact with our service:
- User ID (Local Storage): A randomly generated anonymous identifier stored in your browser's local storage. This is not linked to any personal information and is used for basic analytics to understand usage patterns. Local storage does not require cookie consent.
- Preferences (Cookies - Requires Consent): If you accept cookies, we store your selected championships, series filters, view mode, and dark mode settings in cookies so you don't have to re-select them on each visit.
- Interaction Data: Basic information about how you use the site (page loads, date changes, filter selections) is tracked using your anonymous user ID and stored in our internal analytics database.
User ID is stored in your browser's local storage and also in a cookie for backward compatibility. Preference data is stored only in first-party cookies on your device (if you accept cookies). Interaction data is stored in our internal analytics database. None of this data is shared with third parties.

- Remember your preferences and settings across sessions
- Provide you with a personalized experience
- Understand how users interact with our service to improve it

- Send email reminders about upcoming race events (if you have subscribed to email notifications)
- Analyze website traffic and usage patterns through Google Analytics to improve our service
We do not use your information for:

Third-Party Services
Google Analytics
We use Google Analytics, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC ("Google"), to help us understand how users interact with our website. Google Analytics uses cookies and similar technologies to collect information about your use of the website.
Information collected by Google Analytics includes:
- Pages you visit and how long you spend on each page
- How you arrived at our site (e.g., from a search engine, direct link, or referral)
- Your general location (country/city level, not precise location)
- Browser type, device type, and screen resolution
- Interactions with website features and buttons
This information is transmitted to and stored by Google on servers in the United States and other countries. Google will use this information to evaluate your use of the website, compile reports on website activity for us, and provide other services relating to website activity and internet usage.
Your choices regarding Google Analytics:
- You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on, available at https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout
- You can also prevent Google Analytics from collecting data by blocking cookies in your browser settings
- You can reject cookies through our consent banner, which will prevent Google Analytics from tracking your activity
For more information about how Google uses data from sites that use Google Analytics, visit Google's Privacy Policy.
Other Third-Party Services
We do not use third-party advertising networks or social media tracking. If you subscribe to email reminders, we use an email delivery provider (SendGrid or SMTP) to send race reminder emails. Your email address is shared with the delivery provider solely for the purpose of sending those emails. No other third-party services receive your email address or race reminder preferences.
We also use Vercel Analytics (provided by Vercel) to monitor site performance and availability. Vercel Analytics collects anonymised request data (page views, performance metrics) and does not use cookies or track individual users.
Data Storage and Security
We store data in two locations:
- In Your Browser: Your anonymous user ID is stored in your browser's local storage (and also in a cookie for backward compatibility). If you accept cookies, your preferences (championship filters, view mode, dark mode) are stored in first-party cookies on your device.
- In Our Database: We store the following information in our internal database:
- Basic interaction data (page loads, filter changes) associated with your anonymous user ID
- Email subscription information (email address, preferences, timezone) if you opt into email notifications
- Email delivery and interaction logs (sent status, clicks, opens) if you are subscribed to email notifications
We implement reasonable security measures to protect this data. All data is stored securely and is not accessible to third parties. We do not collect sensitive personal information such as names, addresses, or payment details (except email addresses if you voluntarily subscribe to email notifications).
Your Rights
You have the right to:
- Reject Cookies: You can decline cookies through our consent banner. Note that your anonymous user ID will still be stored in local storage as it does not require cookie consent.
- Delete Cookies: You can delete all cookies through your browser settings at any time.
- Clear Local Storage: You can clear local storage data (including your user ID) through your browser's developer tools or privacy settings.
- Access: Since we only collect an anonymous user ID and don't link it to personal information, there is no personal data to access. If you have subscribed to email notifications, you can manage your email preferences through the unsubscribe link in our emails.
- Object: You can stop using our service at any time, and you can clear your browser data to remove all stored information.
Children's Privacy
Our service is not directed at children under 13 years of age. We do not knowingly collect information from children. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with information, please contact us.
International Data Transfers
Our service may be accessed from anywhere in the world. The minimal data we collect may be stored on servers located in different jurisdictions. By using our service, you consent to this transfer of information.
Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this privacy policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated "Last Updated" date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
