To function as your race engineer and to power community features, we collect detailed activity data including:
- Session Data:Lap times, split times, gap data, race results, and session dates.

We may share generic aggregated demographic information or aggregated racing statistics (not linked to any personal identification information) with our business partners and advertisers for the purposes outlined above.
We may disclose your information in the following limited circumstances:
- Service Providers:We may employ third-party companies and individuals (e.g., cloud hosting providers, database management services) to facilitate our App or perform App-related services. These third parties have access to your Personal Information only to perform these tasks on our behalf and are obligated not to disclose or use it for any other purpose.
