Privacy Policy

Effective Date: June 10, 2026
Last Updated: June 10, 2026

​Real Sporting Academy, also referred to as “RSA,” “we,” “our,” or “us,” respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and protect personal information when you visit our website, submit a form, request tryout information, register interest in a program, contact us, or otherwise interact with us online.

This Privacy Policy applies to:

https://www.realsportingacademy.com/

This Privacy Policy also applies to any related pages, landing pages, forms, or subdomains operated by Real Sporting Academy, including tryout-related pages.

Our website is hosted and operated through Wix. We use Wix’s built-in website tools, including Wix Forms, Wix Contacts/CRM, Wix Inbox, Wix Automations, and Wix Analytics, to operate our website, receive form submissions, manage inquiries, communicate with families, and understand general website performance.

​​

We also use Google Analytics to help us understand how visitors find and use our website. Google Analytics may collect information such as pages visited, device and browser information, approximate location, traffic source, and general website activity. We use this information to improve our website, programs, communications, and user experience.

By using our website or submitting information to us, you agree to the practices described in this Privacy Policy.

2. Parent and Guardian Submission for Minors

 

Real Sporting Academy provides youth soccer programs. Our website forms are intended to be completed by parents, legal guardians, or adults submitting their own information.

If you are under 13 years old, do not submit personal information through our website. A parent or legal guardian must complete forms on behalf of a minor player.

 

If we learn that we collected personal information directly from a child under 13 without appropriate parent or guardian involvement, we will take reasonable steps to delete the information or obtain proper parent or guardian consent.

 

Parents or legal guardians may contact us to review, correct, or request deletion of personal information related to their child, subject to legal, safety, administrative, insurance, program, or recordkeeping needs.

 

3. How We Use Personal Information

 

We may use personal information for the following purposes:

  • To respond to inquiries

  • To process tryout, evaluation, or program interest forms

  • To communicate with parents, guardians, players, coaches, and families

  • To manage academy programs, teams, schedules, events, and tryouts

  • To evaluate player eligibility, age group, program fit, or placement

  • To provide safety-related support during academy activities

  • To maintain internal records

  • To send academy updates, program information, event reminders, and related communications

  • To improve our website, programs, forms, communications, and user experience

  • To protect the rights, safety, and security of RSA, our players, families, staff, coaches, and website users

  • To comply with legal, administrative, insurance, or operational obligations

 

4. Wix Forms, Wix CRM, Wix Analytics, and Google Analytics

 

Our website is built and operated through Wix.

When you submit a form on our website, your submission may be processed through Wix Forms and stored in Wix’s built-in CRM, Contacts, Inbox, Automations, or related Wix tools. Authorized RSA staff, coaches, administrators, or website collaborators may access this information when necessary to manage academy communications, respond to inquiries, or operate RSA programs.

We use Wix Analytics and Google Analytics to understand general website activity, such as page visits, traffic sources, device and browser information, approximate visitor location, and how visitors interact with our website. We use this information to improve the website and understand which pages or programs visitors are interested in.

We do not intentionally use Wix Analytics or Google Analytics to collect sensitive player information, medical information, or private form message content for advertising purposes.

7. Selling or Sharing Personal Information

 

We do not sell personal information for monetary payment.

Based on our current setup, we use Wix’s native website, form, CRM, and analytics tools, as well as Google Analytics for general website measurement. We do not intentionally share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising.

We do not use Google Analytics to intentionally collect sensitive player information, medical information, or private form message content for advertising purposes.

If we later add advertising pixels, remarketing tools, third-party tracking scripts, or similar technologies, we will update this Privacy Policy and provide any required opt-out rights or cookie controls.

14. California Do Not Track Disclosures

 

Some browsers offer a “Do Not Track” setting. Because there is not currently a uniform industry standard for responding to these signals, our website may not respond to all Do Not Track browser signals.

 

We use Wix’s built-in website and analytics tools, as well as Google Analytics, to operate, measure, and improve the website. We do not intentionally allow third-party advertising networks to collect personal information through our website for cross-context behavioral advertising based on our current setup.
