Why Some Data is Retained (De-identified)
To maintain the integrity of our sports community and prevent system abuse:
- Events remain visible so other participants can view their historical match records
- Skill validations are preserved (de-identified) to maintain the integrity of the ranking system
- All retained data has your identity replaced with "Anonymous", and personal profile data is erased
- Where de-identification cannot reasonably exclude re-identification, retained records are treated as personal data and stored only with appropriate safeguards and restricted access
- This is a standard practice to prevent users from manipulating the system by deleting and recreating accounts
Backups and Technical Records
Data removed from active systems may temporarily remain in backups, system logs, or security records for a limited period necessary for recovery, security, and abuse prevention. This data is not used for active app functionality and is deleted or overwritten in accordance with internal retention schedules. As indicative maximum periods: backups – up to 90 days; security and system logs – up to 12 months. For the full data retention framework, see our Privacy Policy.
