- Payments: purchases via the app are handled by Apple and Google; we receive limited metadata (no full card numbers).
5) Why we process (legal bases)
- Contract: create/manage your account; provide community features; support.
- Legitimate interests: site security, fraud/abuse prevention, analytics, service improvement.
- Consent: non-essential cookies; personalized ads; marketing. You can withdraw anytime via cookie settings.
- Legal obligations: keep records required by law.
6) How we use data
Operate and secure the service, host user-generated content, moderate for safety, communicate service notices, analyze usage, run ads/measurement where permitted.
7) Sharing
- Processors/service providers (acting under contract):
- Hetzner (hosting).
- Bunny CDN (content delivery/edge caching).
- Google AdSense & AdMob (ad delivery, measurement; Google may act as controller for some ad processing).
- Twitch (embedded streams; when you view an embed, Twitch may collect data directly under its policy).
- Google (email provider).
- CookieBot (consent provider for cookies).
- Authorities/others: if required by law or to protect rights/safety.
- Public content: posts and profiles you choose to make public are visible to others.
We do not sell personal data.
8) International transfers
Data may be processed outside your country (e.g., global CDNs/ad networks). We use GDPR-approved safeguards such as Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and assess recipient laws.
9) Retention
- Account & community content: kept while your account is active; deleted or anonymized after deletion (backups may persist briefly).
- Logs/analytics: typically 12–24 months.
- Cookie/ads identifiers: per cookie banner details/provider policies.
- Legal/accounting records: as required (e.g., up to 7 years).
We delete or anonymize when no longer needed.
10) Your rights (GDPR)
You can access, correct, delete, object, restrict, and port your data; and withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.
Request via team@uflscout.com. You can also complain to your local data protection authority.
11) Cookies & ads
- Essential cookies: authentication, security, preferences.
- Non-essential: analytics/measurement and personalized advertising via Google AdSense/AdMob (browser cookies; on mobile, Ad ID/IDFA).
- Control: use our cookie banner/settings to opt in/out. Refusing non-essential cookies won’t affect core features but may reduce ad relevance.
- Third-party embeds: Twitch may set cookies when you view an embed; see Twitch’s policy.
12) Security
TLS in transit, hashed passwords, access controls, monitoring, and least-privilege practices. No system is perfectly secure, but we aim to protect against unauthorized access and misuse.
13) Children
UFL Scout is not directed to children under the digital consent age in their country (typically 13–16). Do not register if under the applicable age.
14) Automated decision-making
We don’t make automated decisions with legal or similarly significant effects on you. Ad personalization by providers may use profiling with your consent.
15) Changes
We’ll post updates here and adjust the “Last updated” date. Material changes may also be notified in-app or by email.
