Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 2, 2026

FindAutoRaces.com ("we," "us," or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information. By using this site, you agree to the practices described below.

1. Information We Collect

Information You Provide Voluntarily

We collect information you choose to submit through our forms, including:

  • Your name and email address when you submit a Contact message
  • Your email address and comments when you submit an Error Report
  • Any information you choose to include in the body of your message

This information is used solely to respond to your message or fix reported issues. We do not store it in a database — it is delivered to us via email and retained only in that email thread.

Track Photos

When you share a photo of a track, we store the photo, its caption, the name you give for the photo credit and, if you provide it, your email address. We review each photo before publishing it. Approved photos are shown on the track's page with the caption and credit name. Your email address is never shown; we use it only if we need to contact you about your photo. Photos are stored with the location and camera data removed. To have a photo you shared taken down, contact us.

Information Collected Automatically

When you visit FindAutoRaces.com, certain information is collected automatically, including:

  • Pages visited and time spent on the site
  • Browser type and approximate geographic region
  • Referring website (how you arrived at our site)
  • Device type (desktop, mobile, tablet)

This data is collected in aggregate and anonymized via Google Analytics 4 (see Section 3). We cannot identify individual users from this data.

2. Cookies

FindAutoRaces.com uses cookies and similar technologies for the following purposes:

  • Analytics cookies — Set by Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors use the site (pages visited, session duration, traffic sources).
  • Session cookies — Set by our application to remember your filter preferences (e.g., which racing series or date range you last selected) during your visit. These expire when you close your browser.
  • Authentication cookies — If you are an administrator, Auth0 sets session cookies to keep you logged in securely.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some site functionality (such as filter preferences not being remembered).

3. Third-Party Services

We use the following third-party services. Each has its own privacy policy governing the data they collect:

4. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Respond to contact messages and error reports you submit
  • Understand how the site is being used and improve its content and usability
  • Maintain the security and performance of the site

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal information with third parties for marketing purposes.

5. Data Retention

Contact and error report submissions are retained in our email inbox for as long as needed to address the inquiry, then deleted. We do not maintain a separate database of user-submitted contact information. Google Analytics data is retained according to Google's default data retention settings (26 months).

6. Children's Privacy

FindAutoRaces.com is not directed at children under the age of 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has submitted personal information through our site, please contact us and we will delete it promptly.

7. Your Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have rights regarding your personal data, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of any information you've submitted to us. To exercise these rights, please contact us and we will respond within a reasonable time.

8. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top of this page reflects when the most recent changes were made. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
