Privacy

Short version: FairwayRates CA doesn't track you or set cookies. The only personal information involved is the email address you give our newsletter provider, beehiiv, if you choose to subscribe.

What we collect

FairwayRates CA doesn't collect any personal information itself. The site has no accounts, no ads, no analytics and no tracking scripts, and fairwayrates.com doesn't set cookies. The one exception is the optional newsletter signup, which is run by beehiiv (see below).

Search and "Use my location"

The course finder runs entirely in your browser. When you type a city, ZIP or course name, your browser downloads our public course list and does the matching on your device. If you tap "Use my location", your browser asks your permission first, and your location is only used on your device to sort courses by distance. It is never sent to us or stored.

Newsletter

The "Deals, weekly" email is sent by our newsletter provider, beehiiv. If you subscribe, your email address is stored by beehiiv and used only to send you the weekly deals email. You can unsubscribe anytime with the link at the bottom of every email. Read beehiiv's privacy policy.

The signup form is provided by beehiiv. It loads from beehiiv's servers inside our pages (the home page, the About page, and every course and region page), so when it loads, beehiiv receives basic request data such as your IP address and the page address. The form runs beehiiv's own scripts (including bot protection and Google Tag Manager) and may set beehiiv's own cookies. Those cookies belong to beehiiv, not to fairwayrates.com, and are covered by beehiiv's privacy policy. Past issues are at fairwayrates.beehiiv.com, which is also run by beehiiv.

Hosting

The site is hosted by Vercel. Like any web host, Vercel's servers handle basic technical request data (such as IP address, browser type and the page requested) to deliver pages and keep the service secure. We don't add anything to that or use it to track you.

Links to other sites

Course pages link to official course, city and booking websites. Those sites have their own privacy policies.
