Privacy Policy

Last updated November 10, 2026

This policy explains what Derby Trainer collects when you use derbytrainer.com, race.derbytrainer.com and the Derby Trainer app for iPhone and Android, how it is used, and how to delete it. Derby Trainer is operated by Anshea Ventures LLC ("we").

What we collect

Account details: your username, email address and password when you sign up for a stable. Passwords are stored only as a one-way hash; we can't read them.
Your stable: your horses, their stats, and the days you trained and cared for them.
Phone reminders: if you allow notifications in the app, a push token for your phone, its platform (iPhone or Android) and its time zone, so the daily care reminder arrives at 10am your time.
Security records: the network (IP) address of failed logins and sign-ups, kept for a short time, to block password guessing.
Race play: to join a race you enter a name and pick a horse. Races run live and are not saved after they end.
Sponsors: if you advertise with us, your business name, contact name, email, website, the ZIP code you want to reach, and banner. Payments are handled by Stripe; we never see your card number. Screens report each time a sponsor banner is shown, as a count only, with nothing about the viewer.
Local sponsors: to show sponsors near you, the race server estimates the city a race screen or phone is in from its network (IP) address. It's used only to pick banners and isn't stored.
Usage statistics: the race pages use Google Analytics, which records anonymous page visits and device type.

We don't collect your location, contacts, photos, or payment details. The race screens may show a sponsor's banner; it doesn't track you or collect anything.

How we use it

To run your account and stable and let you log in on the website and in the app.
To email you a link to confirm your account.
To send the daily care reminder to your phone, if you turned notifications on.
To keep the game secure and understand how it's used.

We don't sell your information or share it for advertising.

Services we use

These companies handle data on our behalf, only to provide the game:

GoDaddy hosts the website and its database.
Railway hosts the live race server.
Resend sends the account confirmation email.
Stripe processes sponsor payments.
Expo, Apple and Google deliver push notifications to your phone.
Google Analytics provides usage statistics; Google Fonts serves the site's fonts.

How long we keep it

Your account and stable are kept until you delete your account. Phone push tokens are removed when you log out in the app, delete the app, or turn off its notifications. Unconfirmed sign-ups may be removed at any time.

Deleting your account

On the website or in the app's Stable tab, tap your username at the top, then Delete my account and enter your password. This immediately and permanently deletes your account, your horses and their history, and stops reminders to your phones.

You can also turn off reminders at any time in your phone's Settings, under Notifications for Derby Trainer.

Children

Derby Trainer is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child under 13 has created an account, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes

If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top of this page.
