Rider submissions

Information submitted through BRAAP Scotland forms may be used to manage rider submissions, respond to you, and contact you about relevant BRAAP Scotland content or opportunities.

Forms may be provided through third-party services used to operate the website.

How we use your information

We use personal information to respond to enquiries, plan BRAAP Scotland content and filming, contact riders who may be relevant to future stories, manage commercial or partnership enquiries, operate and secure the website, and meet legal or administrative requirements.

Depending on how you interact with us, our lawful basis may be your consent, our legitimate interests in operating and developing BRAAP Scotland, or processing necessary to take steps towards or perform a contract.

Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw that consent at any time.

Sharing your information

We do not sell your personal information.

Information may be processed by trusted service providers required to operate BRAAP Scotland, including website hosting, email, form and embedded-content providers. Information may also be disclosed where required by law or where necessary to establish or defend legal rights.

Some third-party services may process information outside the UK. Where this happens, appropriate data-protection safeguards are used where required.

How long we keep information

We keep information only for as long as it remains reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected.

Rider submission information may be retained while it remains useful for future BRAAP Scotland coverage and is reviewed periodically. You can ask for your Rider submission information to be removed at any time.

Business and contractual records may be kept for longer where required for accounting, taxation or legal purposes.

Children and young riders

BRAAP Scotland regularly covers youth motorcycle sport. Where personal information relating to a young person is supplied, appropriate parental or guardian involvement or permission should be provided where required.
