Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 13, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains what information the You in Hockey mobile app (the "App") collects, why we collect it, who we share it with, and the choices you have. You in Hockey is a team management app for amateur and youth hockey teams: a shared schedule, attendance confirmations (RSVP), team rosters, team chat and player profiles.

The App is operated by SPORTPLAY LABS LLC, 3111 E 8th St, Panama City, FL 32401, United States (sportplay-labs.com), referred to as "we", "us" or "our". If you have any questions, write to support@youinhockey.com.

1. Information we collect

1.1. Account information

  • Email address — used as your login. When you sign in with email, we send a one-time code to it.
  • Data from Google Sign-In (if you choose it): your name, email address and profile photo. See section 3 for details.
  • Data from Sign in with Apple (if you choose it): your name and email address, or an Apple private relay email if you choose to hide your email.

1.2. Information you provide in the App

  • Player and coach profiles: first and last name, photo, date of birth, playing position, jersey number and other sports details you choose to enter.
  • Child profiles: a parent or guardian may create and manage a player profile for their child (see section 7).
  • Team data: teams you create or join, your role in a team, invitation codes.
  • Events and attendance: trainings, games and other events you create, and your RSVP answers.
  • Messages: chat messages, polls, photos and files you send in direct, group and team chats.
  • Support requests you send us by email.

We do not ask for your phone number, postal address, location, contacts or payment card details.

1.3. Camera and photo library

With your permission, the App accesses your camera or photo library only when you choose to set a profile photo or attach a photo to a chat message. Only the photos you select are uploaded. You can revoke this permission at any time in your device settings.

1.4. Information collected automatically

  • Push notification token — to deliver notifications about events, messages and team updates.
  • Usage and device data — device model, operating system version, app version, language, IP address, an advertising-independent app installation identifier, and events such as screens opened. We use it in aggregate to understand how the App is used and to improve it.
  • Crash reports — technical information about App errors (stack traces, device and app version) to find and fix bugs.

1.5. Purchases

If you buy a subscription, the payment is processed by the Apple App Store or Google Play. We receive only the purchase status needed to unlock the subscription (product, transaction identifier, expiry date). We never receive your payment card details.

2. How we use information

  • To create your account, sign you in and keep your account secure.
  • To provide the App's features: show schedules and rosters, deliver chat messages, collect RSVPs and display your profile to members of your teams.
  • To send push notifications and service emails (sign-in codes, important notices).
  • To process subscriptions purchased through the App Store or Google Play.
  • To analyze aggregated usage, fix crashes and improve the App.
  • To respond to your support requests.
  • To comply with legal obligations and enforce our Terms of Use.

We do not sell your personal information, we do not use it for targeted advertising, and we do not use it to train artificial intelligence or machine learning models.

3. Google user data

You can sign in to You in Hockey with your Google Account. This is the only way the App uses Google APIs to access Google user data.

  • What we request. Only the basic Google Sign-In scopes: openid, email and profile. We do not request access to Gmail, Google Drive, Contacts, Calendar or any other Google service.
  • What we receive. Your Google account identifier, name, email address and profile photo URL.
  • How we use it. Only to create your You in Hockey account, to sign you in, and to prefill your name and profile photo, which you can change at any time.
  • Sharing. We do not sell Google user data and do not transfer it to third parties, except to the infrastructure providers listed in section 4 that store it on our behalf, or when required by law.
  • No advertising and no AI. We do not use Google user data for advertising, and we do not use it to develop, improve or train generalized artificial intelligence or machine learning models. The App does not generate, edit or distribute AI-generated images of any kind, including sexually explicit or non-consensual intimate imagery.
  • Human access. No one reads your Google user data unless you ask us to (for example, in a support request), it is needed for security purposes, or it is required by law.
  • Deletion and revocation. When you delete your account (section 6), the data received from Google is deleted. You can also revoke the App's access at any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.

You in Hockey's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs to any other app will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements.

4. Who we share information with

4.1. Other users

Your profile (name, photo, position, number), your RSVP answers and your messages are visible to members of the teams and chats you belong to. Public events you publish are visible to all App users.

4.2. Service providers

We use the following providers, who process data only on our behalf and under our instructions:

  • Hosting provider — our servers and database, file storage for photos and chat attachments, and encrypted backups. Servers are located in Europe.
  • Our own mail server (sportplay-labs.com) — delivery of sign-in codes and service emails.
  • Apple Push Notification service and Google Firebase Cloud Messaging — delivery of push notifications to iOS and Android devices.
  • Yandex AppMetrica (Yandex) — usage analytics on iOS and Android, and crash reports on iOS.
  • Google Firebase Crashlytics — crash reports on Android.
  • Google Sign-In and Sign in with Apple — authentication, if you choose these sign-in methods.
  • Apple App Store and Google Play — processing of subscription purchases.

4.3. Legal reasons

We may disclose information if required by law, in response to a valid request from a public authority, or to protect the rights, property and safety of our users, the public or us. If our business is merged or sold, your information may be transferred to the successor, who will remain bound by this policy.

5. Where data is stored and how long we keep it

Our servers, database, file storage and backups are located in Europe. If you use the App from outside Europe, your information will be transferred to and processed there. The providers listed in section 4 may also process data in their own locations. We take reasonable measures to protect your information wherever it is processed.

  • Account, profile, team, event and chat data — while your account exists.
  • Email sign-in codes — expire after 5 minutes; their logs are deleted after 30 days.
  • Database backups — daily backups are kept for 14 days and weekly backups for 8 weeks, after which they are permanently deleted.
  • Analytics and crash data — according to the retention settings of the providers above.

6. Your choices and account deletion

  • You can view and edit your profile information in the App at any time.
  • Delete your account in the App: open Account and tap Delete account. Your account and profiles, together with the data received from Google or Apple, are deleted from our active systems. Remaining copies disappear from backups within 8 weeks.
  • You can also ask us to delete your account or to provide a copy of your data by writing to support@youinhockey.com from the email linked to your account.
  • You can turn off push notifications and camera or photo access in your device settings.

Messages you sent in team or group chats may remain visible to other participants after you delete your account.

7. Children

Users must be at least 13 years old to create an account. A player profile for a younger child can only be created and managed by a parent or guardian from their own account; the parent controls the profile's information and can delete it at any time. We do not knowingly collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will delete it.

8. Security

Data is transmitted over encrypted connections (HTTPS/TLS). Access to our servers and database is restricted to authorized personnel. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, but we take reasonable measures to protect your information.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy. When we do, we will change the "Last updated" date above and, for significant changes, notify you in the App or by email before the changes take effect.
