Datenschutzerklärung

Padelyst is a padel scoring app for iPhone and Apple Watch and a set of free web tools at padelyst.app, operated by Mavens Lab (“we”, “us”). This policy explains what data Padelyst handles and why. The short version: there are no accounts, we never ask for your email or your name, and the only identifier we generate is an anonymous one tied to your device.

What we collect

In the app

• An anonymous device identifier. The app generates a random identifier (a UUID) and stores it in your device’s Keychain. It is not linked to your name, email, Apple ID, phone number, or any other personal identity — we never collect those. The identifier is used solely to scope your match history and player roster to your device.
• Match history. Scores, sets, points, timestamps, match settings, and any labels you enter yourself — player names, locations, and notes. These labels are stored exactly as you type them, so if you enter a real name it becomes part of your match data.
• Player roster. The list of player names you add in the app, associated with your device identifier.

Live tournament sessions

When you create or join a live session (Americano, Mexicano, Round Robin), the player names and scores entered into that session are stored so that everyone in the session sees the same standings. Live sessions are visible to anyone who has the session link or code. Treat them like a scoreboard at the club: use first names or nicknames if you would rather not show a full name. Live sessions are wiped from the live store after a period of inactivity; sessions that were finished with recorded results are archived so their final standings remain viewable at the same link.

On the website

The padelyst.app website uses PostHog analytics to understand how the site and tools are used. This captures page views, product events (for example, creating a session or reading a blog post), and errors/exceptions. Like any analytics service, it also receives technical information inherent to a web request: browser and device type, and an approximate location derived from your IP address. We use this data in aggregate to improve Padelyst — not to identify you.

Camera

The app requests camera access only to scan session QR codes. Scanning happens entirely on your device — camera images are never stored and never leave the device.

How we use your data

• To sync and display your match history and player roster.
• To run live tournament sessions and show shared standings to participants.
• To understand, in aggregate, how the website and tools are used and to fix errors.
• To respond when you contact support.

We do not sell your data, we do not show ads, and we do not share your data with third parties other than the infrastructure providers below, who process it on our behalf.

Where your data is stored

Match history, player rosters, and archived sessions are stored on Cloudflare’s infrastructure (a D1 database running on Cloudflare’s global edge network, including locations in the EU). Live session state is held on the same Cloudflare network for the duration of the session. Website analytics are processed by PostHog.

Retention

• Match history and rosters are kept until you delete them.
• Live sessions are wiped from the live store after a period of inactivity. Finished sessions are archived so results stay viewable.
• Analytics data is retained according to our analytics provider’s standard retention settings.

Your rights

You can delete individual matches and players directly in the app, and you can delete all data associated with your device identifier from within the app’s settings. You can also email us at support@padelyst.app to request access to, or deletion of, your data — because we hold no account or identity information, you may need to share the device identifier shown in the app’s settings so we can locate it.

If you are in the EU/EEA or the UK, you additionally have the rights granted by the GDPR: access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and objection. To exercise any of them, contact us at the address above. You also have the right to lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority.

Children

Padelyst is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect data from them. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy as Padelyst evolves. We will post the updated version on this page and revise the “last updated” date above.
