Privacy Policy

1. Introduction

Welcome to Foosoc ("we," "our," or "us"). Foosoc is a mobile application for real-time soccer match tracking, available on Google Play. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you use our app and related services.

By downloading, installing, or using Foosoc, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy. If you do not agree with the terms of this Privacy Policy, please do not access or use the application.

2. Information We Collect

Foosoc is designed with privacy in mind. The app operates primarily offline, and most data is stored locally on your device. We may collect the following types of information:

Information You Provide

• Team and player information (names, positions, photos you choose to add)
• Match data (scores, goals, assists, cards, substitutions, and other events)
• App preferences and settings you configure within the app

Automatically Collected Information

• Device information (device model, operating system version)
• App usage analytics (feature usage, crash reports) if you opt in to analytics
• Diagnostic data to help us improve app stability and performance

3. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

• Provide and maintain the Foosoc application
• Enable match tracking, team management, and statistics features
• Improve app performance, reliability, and user experience
• Respond to your support requests and inquiries
• Send important updates about the app (with your consent where required)
• Detect, prevent, and address technical issues

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

4. Data Storage and Security

Foosoc is built with an offline-first architecture. Your match data, team rosters, and player profiles are stored locally on your device by default. This means your data remains under your control and is accessible even without an internet connection.

We implement appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect any data that is transmitted to or stored by us. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

5. Third-Party Services

Foosoc may integrate with third-party services to provide certain functionality. These may include:

• Google Play Services for app distribution and in-app updates
• Analytics services (only if you have opted in) to help us understand app usage patterns
• Cloud backup services if you choose to enable them

These third parties have their own privacy policies governing the use of your information. We encourage you to review their policies. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party services.

6. Children's Privacy

Foosoc may be used to track youth soccer matches. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without verifiable parental consent. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided us with personal information, please contact us at foosoc.app@gmail.com, and we will take steps to delete such information.

7. Your Rights and Choices

Depending on your location, you may have certain rights regarding your personal information, including:

• The right to access the personal data we hold about you
• The right to request correction of inaccurate data
• The right to request deletion of your data
• The right to opt out of analytics collection
• The right to export your match and team data

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at foosoc.app@gmail.com. We will respond to your request within a reasonable timeframe.

8. Data Retention

Data stored locally on your device remains there until you delete it or uninstall the app. If you use cloud backup features, retained data will be governed by the backup service's retention policies.

We retain information collected through analytics or support channels only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy, unless a longer retention period is required by law.

9. International Data Transfers

Foosoc is available globally. If you are accessing the app from outside the country where our servers are located, your information may be transferred to, stored, and processed in a different country. By using Foosoc, you consent to such transfer and processing.

We take steps to ensure that any international transfers of personal data comply with applicable data protection laws.

10. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will notify you of any material changes by posting the new Privacy Policy on this page and updating the "Last updated" date. You are advised to review this Privacy Policy periodically for any changes.

Continued use of Foosoc after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy.
