If you choose to create a social account, certain data (display name, handicap index, round summaries) is transmitted to and stored on Stream's servers as described in our Privacy Policy. This is optional and can be disabled at any time. Your GPS shot positions are never uploaded to any server regardless of your account status.

You are responsible for any content posted to your feed. We reserve the right to remove content or suspend accounts that violate these Terms.
