3. Data Roles, Ownership & Responsibility

PlayMaker provides a software platform. Different parties control different types of data.

D. Data Responsibility Disclaimer

PlayMaker is not responsible for scoring decisions, statistical accuracy, or user-entered content. Disputes regarding data should be addressed with the applicable team or organization.

We may provide tools to correct or update data where technically feasible.

5. Team vs Platform Responsibility

PlayMaker does not control how teams interpret, distribute, or publish their data outside the platform.

6. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to:

  • Operate and secure the Services

  • Remember preferences

  • Analyze usage and performance

  • Improve functionality

  • Support marketing and advertising

You may control cookies through your browser settings. Some features may not function properly if disabled.

We may use third-party analytics and advertising tools. Where required, we honor Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals.

 

 

7. Data Related to Minors

PlayMaker operates in youth and amateur sports environments. We may process information about minors when provided by a parent, guardian, coach, or team administrator.

We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent.

If you believe a child’s information was collected improperly, contact us and we will take appropriate action, including deletion where required by law.

 

 

8. Data Retention

We retain information as long as necessary to:

  • Provide the Services

  • Maintain accounts and team records

  • Preserve historical sports statistics

  • Comply with legal obligations

  • Resolve disputes and enforce agreements

Users may request deletion of their account, subject to legal, operational, and record-keeping requirements.

We implement reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards to protect information.

However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

 

 

10. Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights to:

  • Access personal information

  • Correct inaccurate information

  • Request deletion

  • Data portability

  • Restrict or object to processing

  • Once recorded, data may be used for historical reporting and analytics

  • Teams are responsible for reviewing and correcting scoring inputs

This ensures transparency while preserving integrity of historical records.

 

 

12. Youth Sports Data Context

Because PlayMaker is used in youth sports:
