Full name

CIVL ID and CIVL ranking

Why We Collect It

This data is collected to record and publicly display paragliding accuracy competition results. Our legal basis is legitimate interests, specifically operating an accurate, transparent scoring system for paragliding competitions in accordance with FAI and CIVL regulations.

Where Data Comes From

Pilot data is sourced from pgacc.app and the CIVL database, where pilots have already provided their information for competition registration. Administrators may also enter or update data directly.

Data Sharing

Your data is not shared with any third parties. Competition results are displayed publicly on this website as is standard practice for sporting competitions.

Data Retention

Pilot and competition data is retained indefinitely to maintain a complete historical record of competition results. This is consistent with how CIVL retains pilot data in their own systems. If you wish to request deletion of your data, see Your Rights below.

Your Rights

Under UK GDPR you have the right to:

Access: request a copy of the personal data we hold about you
Rectification: ask us to correct inaccurate data
Erasure: ask us to delete your data (subject to legitimate interests override for historical records)
Restriction: ask us to limit how we use your data
Portability: receive your data in a structured, machine-readable format
Objection: object to processing based on legitimate interests

To exercise any of these rights, email admin@pgascore.app. We will respond within 30 days.

Complaints
