Tickets, Events, and Registrations

When you purchase tickets, spectator passes, or register for KCS-related events, your information may be used to confirm your purchase, manage admission, communicate event updates, verify registration details, coordinate safety procedures, and support event operations.

If a ticketing, registration, payment, or fulfillment partner is used, information may be processed by that third-party provider as needed to complete the transaction or provide the service.

Minor Participants and Youth Event Information

Some KCS events may involve minors as competitors, attendees, family members, or participants in event-related media. KCS may collect limited information about minors when reasonably necessary for registration, eligibility, parent or guardian consent, emergency contact, event administration, safety, media permissions, or compliance purposes.

Where required, KCS may request consent from a parent or legal guardian before a minor participates in events, competitions, interviews, livestreams, VOD, media activities, or other KCS-approved opportunities.

KCS may use minor participant information to help verify consent, manage event access, coordinate safety procedures, apply restricted-area rules, and respond to safety or conduct concerns.

Merchandise and Store Orders

When you purchase merchandise through the KCS website, we may collect and process order details, shipping information, billing information, payment-related information, return or exchange details, and customer support communications.

Payments and fulfillment may be processed through Shopify, payment processors, print or fulfillment providers, shipping providers, or other service providers used to complete your order.

Cookies and Tracking

Our website may use cookies, pixels, analytics tools, and similar technologies to understand website traffic, remember preferences, improve performance, and support marketing or advertising efforts.

You can control cookies through your browser settings. Some parts of the website may not function properly if cookies are disabled.

Video, VOD, and Account Access

If KCS offers account features, paid VOD, replay passes, protected video access, saved checkout information, or other gated digital experiences, we may collect and use account, purchase, entitlement, access-log, device, and support information needed to verify access and operate those services.

Video access may involve third-party hosting, payment processors, DRM or protected playback providers, analytics, watermarking, signed links, or access-control tools. These providers may process information as needed to deliver and protect the service.

How We Share Information

KCS does not sell your personal information to advertisers. We may share information only when necessary to operate the website, provide services, complete transactions, protect safety, enforce rules, or comply with legal obligations.

  • Event partners, venues, vendors, security, staff, judges, or officials when needed for event operations, safety, eligibility, or competition administration.

  • Legal, security, fraud prevention, emergency services, venue security, law enforcement, or appropriate authorities where necessary.

Marketing Communications

If you sign up for updates, make a purchase, register for an event, request support, or otherwise provide your contact information, we may send you KCS-related updates, announcements, promotions, ticket information, event communications, VOD access information, or operational notices.

You may unsubscribe from marketing emails using the unsubscribe link included in those emails, where available. Transactional, safety, event, purchase, or account-related messages may still be sent when necessary.

If you tag KCS, submit content, interact with KCS social media accounts, or voluntarily provide photos, videos, testimonials, appeals, reports, or public-facing content, that content may be visible to others depending on the platform, submission method, and your privacy settings.

Data Retention

We keep information for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, including for order history, event records, rankings, bracket history, customer support, appeals, safety records, legal obligations, security, fraud prevention, accounting, and business operations.

Security

We take reasonable steps to protect personal information. However, no website, payment system, account system, video platform, or online service can guarantee complete security. You are responsible for keeping your own account information, devices, and passwords secure.
