Privacy Policy

Last updated: 12 August 2026

This policy explains how Gusto handles personal information when you use our yacht racing crew coordination website and application.

1. Information we collect

We may collect information you provide, including your name, contact and emergency-contact details, profile photo, sailing experience, availability, assigned positions, boat memberships, certificates, licences and equipment records. We may also collect account, device, log and app-usage information needed to operate and secure Gusto.

2. How we use information

We use information to manage accounts, coordinate invitations and race rosters, show relevant race details, send operational notifications and expiry reminders, provide support, improve the service, prevent misuse and meet legal obligations.

3. Sharing

Relevant information may be visible to authorised organisers and administrators for boats or organisations to which you belong. We may share information with providers that host, secure or support Gusto under appropriate safeguards. We do not sell personal information.

4. Storage, security and retention

We use reasonable technical and organisational safeguards. No online system is completely secure. We retain information while it is needed to provide Gusto and meet legal or operational requirements, then delete or de-identify it where appropriate.

5. Your choices and rights

You may ask to access or correct your information, update profile details, manage available notification settings or request account deletion. Some records may be retained where legally or operationally required.

6. Overseas processing

Some providers may process information outside Australia. Where this occurs, we take reasonable steps to require appropriate handling and protection.

7. Children

Gusto is not intended for children to use independently. Where a minor participates, their organiser and parent or guardian are responsible for appropriate permissions.

8. Changes and contact

We may update this policy and will publish the revised date here. For privacy questions, requests or complaints, use the Gusto contact form.
