Privacy policy

Last updated: 8 November 2026.

The short version

RACQIX Academy has no accounts and no password. Your lesson progress is stored in your own browser, on your own device, and is never sent to RACQIX. The first lesson is open to everyone. To open the rest, the Academy asks for your email address and your permission to receive RACQIX emails — the lessons themselves are free, and there is still no account and no password. The Academy uses privacy-respecting analytics to understand which lessons people play and where they get stuck. It still has no accounts, no advertising, and sets no tracking cookies.

What is stored, and where

When you play lessons, the Academy records your progress — which lessons you have attempted, the reads you made, and whether you have earned mastery — in your browser’s local storage (localStorage). That record stays on your device. RACQIX cannot see it, and it is not transmitted to any server. If you clear your browser’s site data, the record is deleted. The share features (sharing your progress summary or a practice opponent) act only when you tap them: they copy text or a link to your clipboard so you can share it yourself. Those links contain practice settings only, not personal information.

Email sign-up

All 50 lessons are free. Your first lesson opens without any sign-up. If you choose to open more lessons, the Academy asks for your email address and your express permission to receive marketing email from RACQIX. In exchange, every lesson unlocks on that browser. RACQIX records your email address, the time you agreed, and the exact wording you agreed to, so your consent can be demonstrated. Your address is stored in RACQIX’s subscriber database (hosted by Supabase), shared with Resend, which sends RACQIX’s email, and kept on RACQIX’s subscriber list. It is used only to send the emails you agreed to and to keep the lessons unlocked on your browser. Every email includes an unsubscribe link; unsubscribing stops the emails — it does not remove your access to the lessons on that browser. You can also withdraw consent by contacting RACQIX at connect@racqix.com. Consent records are kept while you remain subscribed and afterwards as proof of consent, then deleted. Signing up is never required to read any article or page on this site, and your lesson progress is never connected to your email address.

Analytics

The Academy uses Vercel Web Analytics to count page visits, referrers and countries. It sets no cookies and does not identify individual visitors. The Academy also records anonymous information about how lessons are played — which lessons are opened, which shot a player chooses at each decision, and whether they replay or move on — and stores it in RACQIX’s own database (hosted by Supabase). Each visit is given a random identifier that lasts only for that visit; nothing connects it to you, your device, or a later visit. These records are never connected to an email address, and your progress record still stays in your own browser and is never uploaded. These records are kept for up to twelve months and then deleted; only overall totals are kept after that.

Cookies and tracking

The Academy sets no cookies. Nothing in the Academy follows you across other websites. Your sign-up state — including the email address you gave — is kept in the same browser storage as your progress, on your device, and clearing your browser’s site data removes it.

Hosting

The site is hosted by Vercel. Like any web host, its servers keep standard technical logs (such as IP address, time of request and browser type) in order to deliver the site and keep it secure. RACQIX does not use those logs to profile visitors.

Links to other sites

Some Academy pages and articles link to third-party websites, including sources credited for tour data. Those sites have their own privacy policies, which RACQIX does not control.

Changes to this policy

If the Academy’s practices change — for example, if analytics are introduced — this page will be updated to describe the new practice as part of the same change.
