Privacy Policy

What we collect

• Your account: your name, email address and settings, and which version of the Terms of Service you agreed to and when.
• Your leagues: what you and your league add, such as teams, schedules, results, scores, posts, comments and notes, and the ways to pay league money a commissioner enters. League money itself goes straight to the commissioner; we never see it.
• People you add: the names and emails of people invited or added to a league, and your address book of past teammates, which only you can see.
• Messages and requests: what you send us, such as contact form messages and waitlist requests.
• Payments and subscriptions: Stripe handles your card; we never see the card number. We keep what we need to run and account for payments: amounts, dates, status, refunds and disputes, Stripe's reference numbers, and records of what you agreed to when you paid or subscribed.
• Device and usage: your IP address and browser when you sign in, use our forms or features, or pay; which emails we sent you and whether they arrived; and counts of visits to our public pages.
• Security and fraud signals: information we derive from the above to keep Rival Nights safe, such as request counts and one-way fingerprints of email addresses.

Cookies and storage on your device

We use cookies and browser storage that Rival Nights needs to work: keeping you signed in, remembering your settings, and holding things like live scores waiting to send when you're offline. Our payment and bot-protection providers set their own cookies when you pay or use our forms, to prevent fraud. We don't use advertising cookies, and our visit counts don't use cookies to identify you.

Do Not Track

We don't track you across other sites, so Rival Nights doesn't respond to the Do Not Track signal browsers can send. We don't sell your information or share it for advertising. Our payment and bot-protection providers may recognize your device on other sites that use them, only to prevent fraud and abuse.

How we use it

• To run Rival Nights and your leagues.
• To send the emails Rival Nights runs on, such as sign-in codes, invites, reminders and league updates.
• To take payments, keep records of them and of what you agreed to, and meet tax and legal requirements.
• To keep accounts secure and prevent fraud, abuse and repeat misuse of free offers, including with the security and fraud signals above.
• To answer your questions.
• To see, in totals, how Rival Nights is used, so we can make it better.

Who can see what

• Members of a league see what's posted in it, such as players' names, teams, results, feed posts and the ways to pay league money its commissioners enter.
• Commissioners see the email addresses of everyone in their league. Teammates see the emails of people invited to their team. Replies to a league's emails go to its commissioners.
• Anyone with a link a league or player shares (spectator access, a TV screen, a shared result or a calendar subscription) sees what that link shows, never email addresses.

Companies that help us run Rival Nights

Other companies run parts of Rival Nights for us: hosting, the database, sending and forwarding email, payments, bot protection and visit counts. They use your information only to provide that service to us, and may process it in the United States or other countries. The current list names them.

We also share information when the law requires it, to protect people or prevent fraud, or with a company that takes over Rival Nights, which must then follow this policy.

How long we keep it

• Your account and league information: while your account is open.
• Security records, such as sign-in codes and request counts: a short time, usually days.
• Messages to us: as long as we need them to answer you and keep a record of the conversation.
• Payment records and records of what you agreed to: as long as tax, accounting and consumer-protection laws require, even after you delete your account.
• Fraud and abuse prevention information: as long as it's needed for that, even after you delete your account.

When you delete your account (on your profile, or by asking us), we delete your personal information or remove what ties it to you, apart from what we keep as above. League history stays so other players' standings still add up, shown as “Deleted player.” Details you entered for a league that aren't tied to your account, such as a payment username, stay with the league, so remove them before you go.

Your choices

• Change your name or email address on your profile at any time.
• Turn off optional emails on your profile, or with the link at the bottom of those emails.
• Delete your account from your profile at any time, or send a message through our contact form, using the email address on your account, to have us delete it or to get a copy of your information.
• Some states, such as California, give residents more rights over their information. We honor these requests for everyone, wherever you live.

Children

You must be at least 13 to use Rival Nights (see the Terms of Service), and we don't knowingly collect information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has an account, tell us and we'll delete it.

Security

We protect your information with encrypted connections, limited access to our systems and other safeguards. No system is perfectly secure; if a breach affects your information, we'll tell you as the law requires.

Changes and contact

When this policy changes, we'll update the date at the top. If a change lets us use or share your information in a new way, we'll email account holders before it takes effect. Updates to the list of companies we use don't change this policy. Questions: use our contact form. The rules for using Rival Nights are in the Terms of Service.
