Children's Privacy Notice

For parents and guardians of athletes under 13 — what we collect, how we use it, and the control you keep.

Working draft. This page describes how the product operates today and is being finalized with legal counsel. It is not yet a final, legally-reviewed policy — check back for the completed version.

Why you're reading this

Athlete Barn is used by athletes under 13. This notice is directed to their parents and guardians. Before a child under 13 can have an active profile, a parent or legal guardian must create and own the account and provide consent. This page explains what that means so you can make an informed choice.

What we collect from a child

To build and run the athlete’s profile, we collect:

  • Name, date of birth, school, and ZIP.
  • Athletic details (position, measurables) and a headshot the guardian uploads.
  • Film links, coach notes, and messages exchanged with coaches.
  • The guardian’s contact email as the account holder.

We ask only for what’s needed to provide the service and do not require a child to disclose more than is reasonably necessary to participate.

How the information is used

The information builds the athlete’s profile and makes it visible to coaches and college recruiters on the platform, powers the monthly coach rotation and messaging, and runs account and billing features. We do not sell children’s personal information.

Your consent

A parent or guardian creates the account, provides the athlete’s information, and consents before the profile activates. Because the guardian owns the account, they can see and control what the child shares at any time.

Your rights as a parent or guardian

You can, at any time:

  • Review the personal information collected from your child.
  • Ask us to correct or delete it.
  • Refuse further collection or use of your child’s information.
  • Withdraw consent — which deactivates the account.

Permanent deletion is handled by our support team (not a one-click wipe). After we verify you are the guardian or account owner, we complete deletion or irreversible anonymization of personal profile data within 14 calendar days.

How to reach us

To review your child’s information, withdraw consent, or request deletion, email support@athletebarn.com or use our contact page.

This notice works alongside our Privacy Policy and Terms of Service.
