Privacy
The short version: players give a display name and their picks, and that's all I keep about them. There are no ads and no trackers, and I don't sell data.
What is stored
- For a league: its name, settings, pick sheets and results.
- For a player: display name, jersey number and colors, picks, and an optional PIN stored only as a scrambled hash.
- For a Captain: the email address and purchase record that Stripe sends me after checkout.
- For security: short-lived counters that limit repeated attempts from one network address.
- For the site itself: a daily count of visits to the public pages, by page and by the site or app that sent the visitor. The count has no cookie, no network address and no ID in it, so it can't be traced back to a person.
Cookies
Only the cookies that keep you signed in to your league. No analytics cookies and no advertising cookies.
Who helps run it
- Cloudflare hosts the site and the database.
- Stripe handles the payment. I never see a card number.
- Anthropic's Claude writes the memos and answers. When a league uses those features, league details such as names, picks and standings are sent to it for that purpose.
- If a Captain connects Slack, Teams, Discord or Google Chat, league posts are sent to that channel.
- If email is switched on, an email provider delivers a sign-in link to each buyer after a purchase, captain sign-in links when asked, and two reminders a season about the Commish's contract.
Who can see picks
Your picks are private until each game kicks off. After that, everyone in your league can see them, and so can anyone the Captain shares the Big Board link with.
Deleting things
A Captain can remove a player at any time. To delete a whole league, the Captain can write to me and I will remove it.
Who this is for
This is built for workplaces and adults. It is not directed at children.
