How we look after your details

Who we are

The tournaments on this site are run by SK Badminton Hub.

What we keep, and why

• Your account: name, email, password (stored scrambled, never readable), and if you add them, phone, club and county. Used to sign you in and to contact you about tournaments you've entered.
• Tournament entries: the player's name, club, email, Badminton England number (if given), gender (for the right event) and check-in times on the day. Used to make the draws, run the day and keep results.
• Results: scores, draws and who won, kept as each tournament's record.
• Face ID / fingerprint sign-in (if you switch it on): your face or fingerprint never leaves your phone. We keep only a key your phone proves it holds (website), or a scrambled copy of a key kept in your phone's Keychain (iPhone app).
• iPhone app notifications (if you allow them): the phone's notification address, linked to your account while you're signed in, to tell you when your match goes on court. Signing out unlinks it.
• Camera: used only while you scan a QR code; no pictures are taken or kept.
• Cookies: one to keep you signed in, and one security cookie for forms. No advertising or tracking cookies.

Who can see it

• Everyone: player names and clubs in draws, live courts and results.
• The tournament's organisers and helpers: the entry details above, to run the day.
• Nobody else. We don't sell or share your details, and there are no adverts. Email is sent through the club's own email provider; iPhone notifications through Apple.

Children

Many players are juniors. A parent or guardian should create and look after the account of a child under 13, and we only ask for what's needed to run the tournament. Only names and clubs are shown publicly.

How long we keep it

• Player accounts not used for 12 months are closed, after an email warning 30 days before (signing in keeps it open).
• Closing or deleting an account removes the login, email, phone, club, Face ID and notification links. Results stay under the name entered for each tournament, as part of its record.
• Any medical, emergency or guardian details collected for a tournament are deleted 30 days after it.

Your choices

• See or correct your details: My settings → Your details.
• Delete your account at any time: My settings → Delete my account (on the website or in the app).
• Switch off Face ID sign-in or notifications in My settings, the app, or your phone's settings.
• Anything else, or a copy of what we hold about you: ask the tournament organiser. You can also contact the Information Commissioner's Office (ico.org.uk).
