Privacy Policy

Effective Date: [January 30 2026]

Mat Bracket Challenge (“we,” “our,” or “us”) respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and your rights regarding that information.

1. Information We Collect

We collect only the information necessary to operate the service.

Account Information

When you create an account, we may collect:

• Email address
• Username or display name
• Authentication information (handled by Supabase)

Usage Information

We collect information related to your use of the service, such as tournament picks, pool participation, and leaderboard standings. This information is used solely to provide app functionality.

2. Payments

Payments are processed securely by Stripe. We do not store credit card numbers or payment details. Stripe may collect information required to process payments, and Stripe’s handling of payment data is governed by Stripe’s own privacy policy.

3. How We Use Your Information

4. Email Communications

By creating an account, you agree that we may send you limited, relevant emails related to the service, such as account notifications, season or tournament announcements (including bracket resets), and important updates affecting your use of the platform.

We aim to keep emails infrequent and relevant. We do not sell your email address to third parties. You may opt out of non-essential emails at any time.

5. Data Sharing

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information. We may share limited information only with trusted third-party services required to operate the platform, including Supabase (authentication/database) and Stripe (payments).

6. Data Security

We take reasonable measures to protect your information, but no system can be guaranteed to be 100% secure.

7. Data Retention

We retain account information for as long as your account remains active or as needed to provide the service. You may request account deletion by contacting us.

8. Children’s Privacy

Mat Bracket Challenge is not intended for children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
