Privacy Policy for Bag

Effective date: September 28, 2026

Bag – Your Game in One Place (“Bag”) is provided by unnecessaryMonday LLC (“unnecessaryMonday,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).

This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, store, and share information when you use Bag and its related services.

1. Information We Collect

Account information

Bag uses Sign in with Apple. When you create an account, Apple may provide us with:

  • Your name

  • Your email address, which may be an Apple private-relay address

  • A unique account identifier

Apple may provide your name and email only when you first authorize the app. We retain this information with your account to operate the service and restore your information on returning devices.

Golf, fitness, and gameplay information

When you use Bag, we may store information about your golf activity, including:

  • Golf courses and tees selected

  • Rounds, holes, scores, shots, putts, clubs, lies, and distances

  • Practice sessions and practice history

  • Shot locations and other round details

  • Player preferences, profile information, and golf-related goals

  • Saved recommendations, insights, cues, and drills

We use this information to provide round tracking, preserve your golf history, and personalize coaching and recommendations.

Chat, journal, and other user content

We collect content you choose to submit, including:

  • Coaching conversations and written messages

  • Journal entries and notes

  • Voice-journal transcripts

  • Feedback and customer-support messages

  • Responses sent to you by our support or administrative team

  • Other free-form information you add to your profile or golf history

Because these areas allow free-form input, you should avoid including sensitive personal information that is not necessary to use the app.

Feedback screenshots

You may optionally attach screenshots to feedback or support requests. Screenshots may contain information visible on your screen when you create or copy them.

Please submit only screenshots and other content that you have the right to share.

Location information

When you enable GPS features, Bag may use and collect precise location information to:

  • Find nearby golf courses

  • Provide on-course yardages

  • Determine your position on a hole

  • Record the locations of shots or ball markers

  • Associate an optional journal entry with a position in your round

Location associated with a saved round or journal entry may be stored with your account so you can review your golf history and receive personalized insights.

Bag does not use location information for advertising or cross-app tracking. Version 1.0 does not upload or retain a separate continuous diagnostic GPS log.

You can control location access through your device settings. Disabling location access may prevent GPS-dependent features from working.

Voice recordings and transcripts

When you create a voice-journal entry:

  • Bag records an audio file locally on your device.

  • The recording remains available locally so you can play it back.

  • A temporary copy is transmitted through our server to OpenAI’s transcription service.

  • Our server processes the audio in memory and does not store the recording in Firestore, cloud storage, or another server-side audio archive.

  • OpenAI processes the recording to generate a transcript.

  • We store the resulting transcript with your account and golf history.

Depending on your Apple device and backup settings, locally stored recordings may be included in device backups managed by Apple.

Deleting the app removes its locally stored data from that device. Other device backups are controlled through your Apple account and device settings.

Usage and diagnostic information

We may collect information needed to maintain and improve the reliability of Bag, including:

  • App version and build number

  • Device type and operating-system version

  • App sessions and basic product interactions

  • Crash reports

  • Error information and diagnostic breadcrumbs

  • The Bag user ID associated with an error or crash

  • Technical information needed to investigate failures, security issues, and service performance

We do not use this information for advertising or cross-app tracking.

2. How We Use Information

We use collected information to:

  • Create and maintain your account

  • Authenticate you and protect the service

  • Provide chat, journal, round, course, GPS, and practice features

  • Save and restore your golf history

  • Generate personalized golf insights and coaching responses

  • Transcribe voice-journal entries

  • Respond to feedback and support requests

  • Diagnose crashes, errors, and service problems

  • Maintain the security, reliability, and performance of Bag

  • Comply with applicable legal obligations

We do not sell or rent your personal information.

3. Artificial Intelligence Processing

Bag uses third-party artificial-intelligence services, including OpenAI, to provide coaching responses, analyze golf-related content, and transcribe voice entries.

Information sent for AI processing may include:

  • Chat messages and journal content

  • Relevant golf context needed to generate a response

  • Temporary voice recordings submitted for transcription

We do not intentionally send your contact information to AI providers unless it is included in content you submit or is otherwise required to service your request.

Information processed by AI providers is subject to their applicable service terms and data controls. OpenAI states that information submitted through its API is not used to train or improve its models unless the API customer explicitly opts in. OpenAI’s published data controls currently list the audio-transcription endpoint as having no application-state or abuse-monitoring retention.

You should not rely on AI-generated responses as medical advice or as a substitute for professional instruction.

4. Service Providers

We use service providers to operate Bag. Depending on the feature used, these providers may process information on our behalf:

  • Apple: Sign in with Apple, device location services, maps, app distribution, and device backups

  • Google Firebase: authentication and backend data services

  • OpenAI: coaching responses, content processing, and voice transcription

  • Sentry: crash reporting, error diagnostics, and app reliability monitoring

  • Fly.io and related hosting providers: hosting and delivery of our server services

  • iGolf/Golf Intelligence: golf-course and hole information; course identifiers or location-based queries may be used to return relevant course data

  • YouTube/Google: delivery of embedded golf videos through the YouTube player

These providers process information according to their own terms and privacy policies. We provide them only with information reasonably necessary to perform services for Bag.

5. Sharing and Tracking

We may share information:

  • With service providers that operate features on our behalf

  • When required by law, legal process, or a valid government request

  • When reasonably necessary to protect users, our rights, or the security of the service

  • As part of a merger, acquisition, financing, or transfer of the business, subject to appropriate protections

We do not:

  • Sell personal information

  • Share personal information with data brokers

  • Use personal information for third-party advertising

  • Combine Bag data with information from other companies for targeted advertising

  • Track users across apps or websites owned by other companies

6. Data Retention

We retain account information, golf history, chats, journal entries, transcripts, and other saved content while your account remains active or for as long as reasonably necessary to provide Bag.

Support and diagnostic records may be retained for a reasonable period to resolve requests, investigate problems, maintain security, and comply with legal obligations.

Raw voice recordings are not retained on our servers. The local recording remains on your device until it is deleted through the app, removed with the app, or otherwise removed through your device or backup settings.

When you delete your account, we delete or de-identify account-linked information from our active systems, subject to limited exceptions for:

  • Security and fraud prevention

  • Legal obligations

  • Resolving disputes

  • Temporary backup or operational records that are later overwritten or deleted

  • Control microphone and location permissions through device settings

  • Request access to or correction of your information

  • Delete your account using the in-app account-deletion feature

  • Contact us with a privacy or data request

Deleting your account removes access to your stored history and cannot necessarily be reversed.

To make a privacy request, contact support@unnecessarymonday.com. We may need to verify that the request relates to your account before acting on it.

8. Security

We use commercially reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational measures to protect information.

No internet-connected service can guarantee complete security. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your Apple account and device.

9. Children’s Privacy

Bag is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
