We may use providers that support hosting, databases, email, security, analytics, customer support, payment processing, content delivery, storage, and website functionality. These providers may process information on our behalf subject to contractual or legal restrictions.
At your direction
We may disclose information when you connect an external service, select a sharing option, participate in an event or sponsorship relationship, or otherwise direct us to do so.

5. Sale and Sharing of Personal Information
We do not sell personal information for money.
We may use analytics, advertising, or similar technologies that could be considered “sharing,” “targeted advertising,” or a “sale” under certain privacy laws. Where legally required, you may opt out using [COOKIE OR PRIVACY PREFERENCES LINK] or by contacting us.

Your browser may permit you to block or remove cookies. Blocking essential cookies may prevent parts of the Service from functioning.
Where required, we will request consent before using nonessential cookies. You can manage applicable choices through [COOKIE SETTINGS LINK].

Residents of the European Economic Area, United Kingdom, or similar jurisdictions may also complain to their local data-protection authority.

9. Security
We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information. No website, transmission, or storage system can be guaranteed completely secure.
You are responsible for maintaining a secure password, protecting your account credentials, and notifying us promptly of suspected unauthorized access.
10. Children and Minor Competitors
The Service is not intended for children under 13, and children under 13 may not create accounts or submit personal information.
Users between 13 and the age of legal majority may use the Service only with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian. A parent or guardian must manage any account, public competitor profile, subscription, or sponsorship activity created for a minor where required by law.
We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 submitted information to us, contact [PRIVACY EMAIL] so we can investigate and delete it.
MotorScored must implement a separate verified parental-consent process before knowingly permitting profiles or accounts for children under 13.
11. Third-Party Services
The Service may link to social networks, payment services, event websites, sponsor websites, or other third-party services. Their privacy practices are governed by their own policies, not this Privacy Policy.
12. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy periodically. We will post the revised version and update the “Last Updated” date. Where legally required, we will provide additional notice or request consent before a material change takes effect.
