Kickstand

Privacy Policy

Effective August 7, 2026. Updated September 22, 2026. Kickstand is a coordination service for recreational sports teams, operated and published by Kickstand LLC. This policy describes the personal information the service collects, how it is used, and who can access it.

Information collected

Your name, together with any of the following supplied by you or your team captain: a mobile number, an email address, a photograph, a nickname, pronouns, a preferred position, and a short profile line. The service also records your responses to scheduled events, including when you responded and whether it was through your link, a notification or a text reply, the date you last opened your link, attendance, umpiring, setup assistance and refreshments provided, the participation points these earn, any content you post to the team Huddle, and, where recorded by your captain, game scores.

Visibility

Your captain and any co-captains can view all information relating to their own team, including contact details. Teammates can view your name, photograph, level and points. Pronouns, preferred position and profile line are visible only to signed-in teammates. Your phone number and email address are visible only if you enable sharing, and then only to signed-in teammates. A person holding the team link without signing in can view names, photographs and attendance. Captain contact details are visible to everyone on the team.

Authentication

Signing in is optional and is not required in order to respond to a scheduled event. Authentication is available through Google or a single-use code sent by text message or email. Where Google is used, the service receives your email address and no other information, and uses it solely to match you to your roster entry. Signing in sets a cookie that identifies you to this application. It is not used for advertising or tracking. The service contains no third-party trackers or analytics.

Text messages and notifications

Where you have enabled game text messages, the service sends reminders about scheduled events and notification when a start time is set or changed. Message frequency varies, typically 1 to 4 messages per week during the season. Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel at any time; no further messages will be sent. Reply HELP for assistance. No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent are not shared with any third parties, excluding the carriers and Twilio, our messaging provider, solely for the purpose of delivering the messages. Where you enable browser notifications, your browser provides an anonymous address for that device for the sole purpose of delivering them; notifications can be disabled at any time from the same control.

Storage and processors

Data is stored with Supabase and the application is hosted by Vercel, both in the United States. Text messages are delivered by Twilio, email by Google, and weather forecasts are obtained from Open-Meteo, which receives only the coordinates of the venue and no personal information. Team captains may export a complete backup of their team at any time.

Retention and deletion

Your captain can remove you from the team on request. Removed records are retained briefly so that an error can be reversed, and are then permanently deleted. You may clear your own photograph, phone number and email address at any time from your player page. To request deletion of all information relating to you, contact the address below. Captains may delete their sign-in account from the Your teams page; deletion requires typed confirmation and an emailed code, and is refused while the account still administers a team.

Children

The service is intended for adult recreational leagues and is not directed to children under 13.
