Privacy

What we collect, and why.

Last updated: 2026-05-13

Placeholder

This policy is in draft. Full legal language is being prepared. The headings below describe the league's actual data practices in plain terms; the placeholder banner will come down when reviewed copy is in. For questions, use the contact form.

1. Information we collect

When you create an account, we collect the information you give us directly: your first and last name, email address, optional phone number, the username you choose for league display, and your self-selected skill level. We also store your registration history (which seasons you've been part of), the matches you've proposed or joined, and the scores you've submitted.

We do not collect a date of birth, address, or any payment-card details. Card details for season fees are handled by Stripe; we receive only a payment confirmation and a Stripe identifier, never the card itself.

2. How we use it

Your information powers the league: showing your match schedule, calculating leaderboards, sending you confirmation and reminder emails, and letting other registered players see who's in the league. We don't sell your information to third parties. We don't use it for advertising. We don't email you about anything beyond league activity.

3. Who else can see it

Other registered players in your city can see your name, username, skill level, and contact (email, optionally phone) in the season's Members directory. This is by design — the league is small and players need to be able to contact each other to schedule matches. The directory is not accessible to the public or to anyone outside the city's roster.

The league organizer (Amy, for Kalamazoo) has full administrative visibility into your registration and match history. This is necessary to run the league.

Third-party processors we use for league operations:

  • Clerk handles authentication. Email and authentication metadata are stored with them.
  • Stripe processes season-fee payments. They receive your name and email for billing.
  • Resend delivers our transactional email. Recipient addresses and message contents pass through their systems.
  • Neon hosts the primary database. The league's data lives there in the United States.
  • Vercel hosts the web application.

4. Your controls

You can edit your profile any time from inside the portal — including your username, contact details, skill level, and notification preferences. Toggling notifications off suppresses non-essential email (transactional mail like match confirmations and payment receipts always sends).

To delete your account, contact the organizer. Account deletion removes your profile and personal contact details; match scores remain in the league's historical record but the player name on those rows is anonymized.

5. Cookies and analytics

The portal uses cookies for authentication (set by Clerk) and to remember your last-used filters and tab preferences. No third-party analytics or advertising trackers are installed in v1.

6. Children

The Scramble is for adults (18+). We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a child has registered, contact the organizer and the account will be removed.

7. Changes to this policy

We'll update this page when our practices change and adjust the "last updated" date above. Substantial changes will be communicated to registered players by email.
