Privacy Policy

PicksLeagues is a small, ad-free sports prediction app operated by an individual. This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information we collect

• Account information from the OAuth provider you choose to sign in with (Google or Discord). We receive your email, name, and avatar image.
• Profile information you provide, such as your username and display name.
• Usage datacreated as you use the app — leagues you belong to, picks you submit, and related activity required to run the game.

How we use information

• To authenticate you and keep your account secure.
• To run league features: invites, picks, scoring, standings.
• To debug issues and protect the service from abuse.

We do not sell your data. We do not run ads. We do not use your data for advertising profiles.

Third-party services

We rely on a small set of service providers to operate the app: hosting and deployment, our database provider, and the OAuth sign-in providers listed above. They process data only as needed to provide their service.

Game data (teams, schedules, scores, odds) is fetched from public sports data sources and is not tied to your account.

Data retention and deletion

You can delete your account at any time from the account settings page. Deletion is handled as soft anonymization: your personal details (name, email, avatar) are removed from our systems, but records of picks you submitted remain attached to an anonymous placeholder so that league history and standings stay intact for the other members.

If you are the sole commissioner of a league with other members, you must transfer the role or remove the league before deleting your account.

Cookies

We use cookies that are strictly necessary to keep you signed in. We do not use tracking or advertising cookies.

Children

PicksLeagues is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect information from them.

Changes

We may update this policy from time to time. Material changes will be reflected in the “last updated” date above.
