Privacy

Overview

Yellowjacket Software Ltd. (Yellowjacket) operates the {{sCore.getSiteName()}} website. This page will inform you of our policies for the collection, use, and disclosure of personal information of anyone who uses our website.

If you choose to use our website, then you agree to the collection and use of information as described below. We will not use or share your information with anyone except as described in this Privacy policy.

Information Collection and Use

The information we hold depends on how you use hockey.bz. If you create an account, we hold your name, username, email address and password. Coaches and team managers enter information about the people on their teams: names, email addresses and phone numbers of players, parents, coaches and volunteers, along with availability notes and responses to events. Coaches may also record evaluation scores and notes about players. If a coach uses location tracking for a session, we hold the location traces recorded for it. If you buy something through the site, we hold the payment reference, your name and email, and the name of the player the order is for. If you use the TeamSnap import, we hold the access token TeamSnap gives us and the rosters we import with it.

This information is used to contact you and to deliver our programs and services, including email sent on behalf of coaches and team managers (invitations, reminders and bulletins).

Who Can See It

Coaches and team managers can see the contact details of the members of their team. Other members of a team, including parents of other players, can also see each member's name, email address and phone number. Anyone who holds an event share link can see that event's roster.

Log Data

When you visit our website we will collect and save data that your browser sends to us, to be used for analytical purposes and to operate and secure the service. This data may include information such as your computer's Internet Protocol ('IP') address, browser version, pages that you visit, the time and date of your visit, the time spent on those pages, and other statistics. Our server logs record the address of each page requested, without the query string that follows it. Server logs are kept for 7 days.

Cookies

Cookies are files with small amount of data that is commonly used an anonymous unique identifier. These are sent to your browser from the website that you visit and are stored on your computer's hard drive. Our website uses a session cookie to keep you signed in, and sets it whenever you use the site. We also use Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics, which load on all pages, including pages when you are signed in, and may set cookies and collect information about how the site is used, as described by Google. The site does not currently offer a choice to accept or refuse cookies; you can block or delete cookies in your browser settings, but if you do, you may not be able to use some portions of our website.

Third Parties

We use the following third-party services to run the website and deliver our programs:

Amazon Web Services (AWS): hosts the website (Elastic Beanstalk), stores uploaded files and calendar files (S3) and sends email (SES).
MongoDB Atlas: hosts our database.
Stripe: processes payments for checkout.
TeamSnap: when you choose to import a team, we exchange data with TeamSnap using your authorization.
Google Tag Manager and Google Analytics: site usage analytics, as above.
Vimeo: videos embedded on some feature pages.
cdnjs and jsDelivr: serve scripts the site needs. Like any internet service, these providers receive your IP address when your browser loads them.

These third parties may have access to your personal information to perform the tasks assigned to them on our behalf. However, they are obligated to not disclose or use the information for any other purpose.

Retention

We keep account, team, evaluation and mailing list information until it is removed; we do not currently delete it on a schedule. The exception is standalone events, which are deleted nightly. Mailing list subscribers and the recipient lists saved with each sent bulletin are kept, including after someone unsubscribes, so that we can honour the unsubscribe. TeamSnap access tokens are stored in our database. Database backups are kept for up to four weeks, so information we delete may remain in a backup for that time.

Requesting Access or Deletion

There is no way yet to delete an account or see your information from within the site. To ask for access to, correction of, or deletion of your information, or your child's, please email us at info@{{sCore.getDomain()}}.

Security

We value your trust in providing us your personal information, and we strive to use the best means of protecting it. However, no method of transmission over the internet, or method of electronic storage is 100% secure and reliable, and we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

Links to Other Sites

Our website may contain links to other sites. If you click on a third-party link, you will be directed to that site. Note that these external sites are not operated by us. Therefore, we strongly advise you to review the Privacy policy of those websites. We have no control over, and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party sites or services.

Children's Privacy

Accounts on hockey.bz require the user to confirm they are 13 or older. Coaches and team managers, not children, enter information about players, which can include minors' names, parents' email addresses and evaluation scores; this information is held for the coach or team that entered it. If you are a parent or guardian and want information about your child changed or removed, please contact us.

Hockey.bz: Stats & Records (Android and iOS apps)

The Hockey.bz: Stats & Records app for Android and iOS (bz.hockey.stats) does not require an account, and we do not ask for your name, email address, or any other information that identifies you. Choices such as your selected league, time frame, and season are saved only on your device and are never transmitted to us or to any third party. Removing the app deletes them.

The app shows banner ads provided by Google AdMob (publisher ID pub-7847952311476026). To serve and measure these ads and to prevent fraud, Google collects device identifiers, approximate location derived from your IP address, how you interact with the app and its ads, and diagnostic information such as crash logs, in accordance with its own privacy policies. On Android this includes your advertising ID. On iOS the app does not ask for permission to track you, so Apple's advertising identifier (IDFA) is not shared. You can read how Google uses data from apps that use its services at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

Where the law requires it (for example, in the European Economic Area and the United Kingdom), the app shows a Google consent message when it starts and asks for your consent before personalized ads are shown. If you are in a region where this message applies, an "Ad privacy options" entry appears under Privacy in the app's Settings, where you can review or change your choice at any time. In other regions the app does not show a consent message or this entry.

To fetch statistics, the app connects to api.yellowjacket.bz, a service run by Yellowjacket Software on Amazon Web Services (AWS). When you share a stat card, the app loads a page from our website to draw the card. The app downloads updates from Expo, the service it is built with. Like any internet service, these services and Google (for ads) receive your device's IP address and process it to deliver the request. We do not use the IP address to identify you, and it may be kept in standard server logs for a limited time for security and operations.

The app is not directed at children under 13.

You can opt out of personalized ads at any time in your device's settings.

Please email us if you have any questions about the app and your privacy.

We may update our Privacy policy from time to time. Thus, we advise you to review this page periodically for any changes. Such changes come into effect as soon as they are posted on this page.
