Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how the Bangalore Bicycle Championships (“BBCh”, “we”, “us” or “our”) collects, uses and safeguards your personal information when you visit bbch.in, register for an event, or otherwise interact with us. By using our website you agree to the practices described here.

• Registration details — name, email address, phone number, gender, age category, team affiliation and emergency contact, provided when you enter an event.
• Race data — your results, timings, rankings and category, which we publish as part of the public race archive.
• Media — photographs and video captured at events, which may feature participants and be published in our gallery and on social media.
• Technical data — basic analytics such as device type, browser, approximate location and pages visited, collected automatically to help us improve the site.

• To register you for events and manage your participation.
• To publish start lists, results and rider profiles.
• To communicate with you about events, schedules, safety information and important updates.
• To operate, maintain and improve this website.
• To comply with legal and regulatory obligations.

BBCh is a competitive sporting event, and results are public by nature. Your name, team, category, timings and rankings appear on public event and rider pages, and may be indexed by search engines. Please contact us if you have concerns about a specific result being displayed.

We use a small number of cookies and privacy-conscious analytics to understand how the site is used and to keep it working reliably. You can control or block cookies through your browser settings; some features may not function correctly if cookies are disabled.

Our site embeds or links to third-party services that have their own privacy policies, including social platforms such as Facebook, Instagram and Strava, and, where applicable, payment providers used for event registration. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these external services.

We do not sell your personal information. We may share it with trusted partners who help us run events (for example, timing and registration providers), or when required by law. These partners are only permitted to use your data to provide their services to us.

We retain registration data for as long as needed to run events and meet legal obligations. Race results form a permanent public archive and are retained indefinitely as a historical record of the championship.

You may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and you may object to certain uses. To exercise any of these rights, please get in touch using the details below. Note that we may need to retain certain information to comply with legal obligations or to maintain the integrity of the public results archive.

Where participants are minors, registration and consent must be provided by a parent or legal guardian. We handle the data of junior riders with additional care and only as necessary to run youth categories.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a revised “last updated” date.

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy or how your data is handled, email us at hello@bbch.in or visit our contact page.
