Privacy notice
Last updated 9 October 2026. Covers barbadospadelladder.com, our events site for tournaments and coaching. Written with the Barbados Data Protection Act 2019 in mind.
Who is responsible
Stacey runs the Barbados Padel Ladder and is responsible for the personal data on this site. Contact: hello@barbadoswomenpadel.com.
What we collect and why
- Players booking coaching or entering a tournament (usually through the women's or men's ladder app): your name, email, skill level, which app you came from, and whether you are confirmed or waitlisted. For tournaments also the name you sign the waiver with and the time you signed it, plus your scores and results.
- Coaches: your name, email, optional phone number and short bio, your rates, and a password (stored only as a one-way hash, never in plain text). We also record failed sign-in attempts so we can lock an account that is being guessed at.
- Sessions and bookings: the sessions coaches post, who booked them, and who was picked to book the court.
- Technical data: a sign-in cookie for coaches and the admin, and ordinary server logs, to keep the site working and secure. No tracking, analytics or advertising cookies.
We do not take payments on this site, and we do not collect payment card details, your location, health data, contacts or photos. Coaching fees are paid to the coach directly, in cash.
Who sees what
- A coach sees the names of the players booked on their sessions, and the email addresses where needed to contact them (for example if a session is cancelled).
- Players booked on the same session see each other's names, and who is booking the court.
- Tournament players see names, schedules and standings of the tournament they entered.
- The Owner and the ladder admins can see everything needed to run events.
We do not sell personal data or use it for advertising.
Messages we send
We email and send phone notifications about bookings: for example a cancelled session, a place opening up from the waiting list, being picked to book the court, or (to coaches) their session filling up or their account being approved. These are sent through the women's or men's ladder app the player belongs to. We do not send advertising.
Who else handles your data
- Vercel: hosts the site.
- Supabase: stores bookings, tournament entries and coach accounts.
- Neon: the ladder databases, which the site checks to confirm someone is a ladder member.
- Resend: sends emails (through the ladder apps).
These services keep data on servers outside Barbados, mainly in the United States, under contracts that protect your data. By using the site you consent to this transfer.
How long we keep it
Bookings and tournament entries for up to 12 months after the event, then they are deleted or anonymised. Coach accounts until you ask us to close them.
Delete your data
Email hello@barbadoswomenpadel.com from the address you used, with the subject "Delete my data". We will delete your coach account, bookings and tournament entries within 30 days. (Deleting your ladder app account is covered in that app's privacy notice.)
Your rights
Under the Barbados Data Protection Act 2019 you can ask to see, correct or delete your personal data, object to how it is used, or withdraw consent. Email us as above. If you are unhappy with our answer you can complain to the Data Protection Commissioner of Barbados. This site is for adults only.
