We use information you provide us to improve the content of our Website, to communicate information to you (if you have requested it), for our marketing and research purposes, and for the purposes specified in this Privacy Policy. For instance, GSGA members can sign up to receive their official handicap revisions by e-mail. To sign up for this service, GSGA members are requested to send their name, e-mail address, GHIN number and home club name. This information is then used to communicate official handicap revisions to the respective member. We may also use the information we collect to occasionally notify you via e-mail about GSGA news and other announcements or changes to Sites. In addition, we may contact you periodically with information regarding golf competitions or GSGA news or events.
