Privacy.
The short version
You can read every page, statistic and leaderboard on this site without an account, without accepting cookies and without giving us anything. Nothing on OTIS is sold, shared or handed to advertisers, and there are no third-party tracking or advertising scripts.
If you create an account
An account is optional. It exists so you can keep a watchlist of players and courses, save searches you have built, and export larger CSV files. Creating one stores your email address, along with the watchlist and saved searches you choose to create. That data is used only to provide those features — it is not used for marketing, and there is no newsletter. Accounts are handled by Amazon Cognito; passwords are managed there and are never visible to this site.
Analytics
OTIS records anonymous usage data through Amazon CloudWatch RUM, to see which pages get used and to catch performance problems. It is anonymous by construction rather than by promise: the client runs with cookies switched off, so there is no identity carried between visits; browsers authenticate as anonymous guests; and the recorded events carry counts only. No IP address, no user identifier and nothing you type is recorded — a search is logged as “a search happened”, never as the text you searched for.
What stays on your device
Your light or dark theme choice, and the column and sort preferences you set on the data tables, are stored in your browser's local storage. They never leave your device and are not sent to any server. Clearing your browser storage removes them.
Third parties
Player headshots and course photographs are served from the PGA Tour's own image CDN rather than copied onto this site. As with any image embedded from another domain, your browser contacts that CDN directly to fetch them, and it can see the request. The site is hosted on Amazon Web Services, which processes requests in the ordinary course of serving pages.
