Privacy

When you create or sign in to an account, we store the account details needed to identify you, such as your name, email address, profile image from an authentication provider, linked provider account, and session records.

When you use the app, we store profile preferences, bracket names, picks, group rankings, league memberships, join requests, and related tournament activity.

We use this information to keep you signed in, save your brackets, manage leagues, score picks, display leaderboards, prevent abuse, and operate the service.

Private brackets and private league activity are not intended for public display. Public brackets, public leaderboard entries, display names, and league-visible picks may be visible to other users when you choose those options or participate in a league.

Your email address is not shown on public bracket pages.

Bracket Challenge uses essential cookies for authentication, session management, and tournament context. We do not need advertising cookies to provide the bracket experience.

Account and bracket data is retained while your account remains active or while it is needed to operate leagues and leaderboards. To request deletion or ask a privacy question, email contact@thegaffer.ca.
