Baseball Tracker Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Adelyons Software LLC ("we," "our," or "us") operates the Baseball Tracker mobile application (the "App"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, protect, and share your data when you use Baseball Tracker.

Our Commitment: We are transparent about the data we collect and how it's used. Baseball Tracker is a community-driven platform that connects baseball/softball players, coaches, and scouts. Your privacy choices are yours to make—you control your profile visibility and data sharing through settings.

2. Information We Collect

Authentication Data:

• Google Sign-In: If you sign in with Google, we receive your Google account email address and a Google-issued ID token used to authenticate with our servers. We do not receive your Google password.
• Apple Sign-In: If you sign in with Apple, we receive your Apple user identifier and, on first sign-in only, your email address and display name. Apple may relay or mask your email at your option.
• Anonymous / Device ID: On first launch before you sign in, a unique device identifier is generated locally to maintain your session. This is not tied to your name or contact information.
• Device Information: Device type, OS version, app version for app functionality and crash diagnostics.

Profile Data (Optional but Required for Full Features):

• Player Profile: Name, age, position, height, profile picture, and geographic location (latitude/longitude coordinates).
• Coach/Scout Profile: Name, profile picture, location (city/state), and bio. These profiles are publicly visible on leaderboards for recruitment purposes.

Location Data:

• GPS Coordinates: Your precise latitude and longitude coordinates, collected when you set your profile location via device GPS or manual entry.
• Location Usage: Used for geospatial leaderboard filtering, allowing coaches/scouts to discover players within a specific geographic radius (e.g., "Show players within 25 miles").
• Location Visibility: Your location is visible to others on leaderboards when filtering by radius. If you prefer privacy, you can disable location sharing in settings (this may limit your discoverability).

Video & Performance Data:

• Video Files: Videos you upload showing pitching, batting, or running. These are processed via AI analysis (see Section 4).
• Athletic Metrics: Throwing speed (MPH), bat swing speed (MPH), running speed—extracted from your videos by AI analysis.
• Session Data: Date, time, position type (pitcher, batter, runner), and aggregate statistics from each recorded session.

Watchlist & Notification Data:

• Watchlist Entries: If you're a coach/scout, we store which players you've added to your watchlist.
• Notifications: When added to a watchlist, players receive in-app notifications showing the coach/scout's name, location, and bio.

Team & Roster Data:

• Teams: Team name, location, and coach assignment.
• Rosters: Player memberships in teams, enabling team-level analytics and team-filtered leaderboards.

Subscription & Payment Data:

• In-App Purchase Records: We track your subscription status (free tier vs. Pro). Actual payment information (credit card, etc.) is processed by Google Play Store or Apple App Store—we do not store payment details.

The Website (baseballtracker.app):

We keep our own record of how baseballtracker.app is used: which pages are opened, how long a page is on screen, how far down it is read, and which buttons are pressed. We do this ourselves. No advertising network and no analytics company receives any of it, and we do not use it to show you advertising.

• A random identifier: To tell one visit from another, the site stores a random identifier in your browser. It is not your name or your email address and it says nothing about you by itself. If you sign in, what that browser did is connected to your account.
• Links in our email: If you arrived from an email we sent to your program, the link carried a code for that program (a school's team, not a person) and a random identifier for that click. The site keeps both in your browser, so we can see that a visit came from the email sent to that program. The link does not identify which coach on a staff opened it.
• What is left out: We do not record what you type, the names on your roster, your opponents, or the names of your video files in this record.
• How long: We keep this record for 13 months and then delete it. To have the record of your account's visits deleted sooner, write to dev@adelyons.com.
• Your choice: You can clear the identifiers at any time by clearing this site's data in your browser. The site works the same with them blocked.

What We DO NOT Collect:

• Contact lists, photos unrelated to baseball, or files on your device
• Real-time location tracking (we use point-in-time GPS, not continuous tracking)
• Call logs, text messages, or communication metadata
• Google or Apple account passwords
• Advertising identifiers or cross-app tracking identifiers for advertising purposes

3. User Types & Data Sharing

Baseball Tracker has three user types, each with different data visibility:

4. How We Use Your Data

• To Provide the App: Profile data, videos, and metrics are used to deliver leaderboards, watchlists, notifications, and statistical analytics.
• AI-Powered Analysis: Your videos are uploaded to a Supabase Edge Function and processed by Google Gemini to extract throwing speed, bat speed, and running speed. Google processes your video data according to their privacy policy. Videos are not retained by Google after analysis is complete.
• Leaderboard Ranking: Your performance metrics are aggregated and ranked on public leaderboards, grouped by stat type (throwing velocity, hitting speed, running speed), age bracket, and geographic radius.
• Recruitment & Discovery: Coach/Scout and Player profiles are visible to enable recruitment and player scouting. Players can be discovered and contacted by coaches/scouts.
• Location-Based Discovery: Your location coordinates enable coaches/scouts to filter players by geographic proximity. Your approximate location may be revealed to other users through leaderboard filtering.
• Analytics & Improvement: Aggregated, anonymized statistics help us improve the app and AI analysis accuracy.
• No Commercial Resale: We do not sell individual user performance data to third parties outside the Baseball Tracker community (scouts, data brokers, etc.), except as visible on public leaderboards. Aggregated statistics may be used for product research and improvement.

5. Video & Data Storage

• Cloud Storage: Your videos, profile data, and performance metrics are stored in Supabase (a PostgreSQL-based cloud platform) for accessibility across devices.
• Video Retention: Uploaded videos are retained in Supabase indefinitely (for historical stats and leaderboard records) unless you explicitly delete them. You can delete individual videos or your entire account at any time.
• Encryption: All data in transit uses TLS 1.3 encryption. Data at rest in Supabase is encrypted using industry-standard encryption.
• Third-Party Processing: Videos are sent to Google Gemini API via Supabase Edge Functions for analysis. Google's privacy policy applies to their processing.
• Server Security: Adelyons maintains secure infrastructure and limits access to user data. We do not grant third parties access to raw videos or personal statistics without explicit user consent.

6. Permissions & Why We Need Them

• Camera Permission: Required to record videos of pitching, batting, and running for AI analysis.
• Storage Permission: To access and upload video files from your device to our servers.
• Location Permission: To detect and store your GPS coordinates for profile location, geospatial leaderboard filtering, and coach/scout discovery. Location access is requested when you set your profile location.
• Network/Internet Permission: To upload videos, process them via Gemini API, and sync statistics with Supabase.
• No Background Activity: The app does not access your camera or collect location when closed, unless you explicitly enable background uploads.

7. Sharing & Third-Party Services

• Google Sign-In: If you use Google to sign in, your Google account email and ID token are shared with Google's OAuth service. Google's privacy policy applies.
• Apple Sign-In: If you use Sign in with Apple, your Apple identifier and (on first sign-in) name/email are shared with Apple's authentication service. Apple's privacy policy applies.
• Google Gemini API: Videos are sent to Google Gemini for AI analysis to extract performance metrics. Google's privacy policy applies to their processing.
• Supabase: Your account data, videos, and performance metrics are stored on Supabase infrastructure. See Supabase's privacy policy for their security practices.
• Leaderboard Visibility: Your name, age, location, position, and performance metrics are displayed on public leaderboards by default. You can hide from leaderboards via "Private Profile" setting in your account.
• Coach/Scout Visibility: Coach and Scout profiles are publicly visible on leaderboards to enable recruitment. Players can see your name, location, and bio when you add them to your watchlist.
• Watchlist Notifications: When you (coach/scout) add a player to your watchlist, they receive a notification showing your name, location, and bio.
• In-App Purchase: Subscription billing is processed through Google Play Store or Apple App Store. Adelyons does not store payment information; those companies handle it per their privacy policies.
• Promotion: We feature a user's video, or a clip or chart made from it, in our marketing only with that user's express permission for that video, and for anyone under 18 shown in it, a parent or guardian's. Permission can be withdrawn at any time. See Section 7 of the Terms of Service.
• No Further Data Sharing: We do not share individual user data with external recruiters, sports organizations, or data brokers—except as visible on public leaderboards.

8. Data Retention & Deletion

• Account Deletion: You can request complete account deletion at any time by contacting dev@adelyons.com. This removes your profile, videos, statistics, and watchlist data from Supabase within 30 days.
• Video Deletion: You can delete individual videos within the app. Deletion from Supabase may take up to 48 hours to propagate.
• Profile Visibility: You can toggle "Private Profile" mode to hide from leaderboards without deleting your account.
• Default Retention: If your account becomes inactive for 24+ months, we reserve the right to delete your data. We will attempt to notify you before deletion.
• No Archival: Adelyons does not retain archived copies of deleted data, unless required by law.
• Backup Copies: Supabase maintains automated backups for disaster recovery; these are deleted per their retention policies.

Invite a Friend (Optional)

Baseball Tracker includes an optional invite feature: if a friend enters your invite code, you both receive 30 days of Baseball Tracker Pro at no charge. When — and only when — you open the invite screen or enter a code, the App sends the following to our invite service (hosted on Supabase) so the free month can be granted through RevenueCat:

• A random installation identifier generated on your device the first time the invite screen is used. It is a random value, not a device or advertising ID.
• Your RevenueCat customer identifier, so the free month is applied to the right customer.
• The six-character invite code being created or redeemed.

That is the entire payload. Nothing else you have entered or created in Baseball Tracker is involved in the invite feature, and we do not learn your contacts or who you shared a code with.

9. Children's Privacy

Baseball Tracker is designed for baseball/softball players of all ages, including minors. We comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA):

• We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without parental consent.
• Parents/guardians can review, edit, or delete their child's profile and video data by requesting account access.
• Coaches and scouts may add child players to watchlists, triggering notifications visible to the child's account.
• Parents should review their child's profile privacy settings (e.g., Private Profile mode) to control discoverability.

10. International Privacy Laws
