Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

1. Information We Collect

When you create an account on Badminton Stats, we collect:

  • Account Information: Email address, username, date of birth, and profile details you choose to provide.
  • Match Data: Scores, opponents, dates, and notes you log through the app.
  • Media: Videos and images you upload for Shorts, AI Coach analysis, or match highlights.
  • Usage Data: How you interact with the app, including features used and session duration.
  • Device Information: Browser type, operating system, and push notification tokens.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • To provide and improve our services, including match tracking, statistics, and AI coaching.
  • To send push notifications about friend requests, likes, comments, and tags.
  • To analyze uploaded videos using AI for coaching feedback (processed via secure third-party AI services).
  • To display your public profile and stats to other users (based on your privacy settings).

3. AI Video Analysis

When you use our AI Coach feature, your uploaded videos are temporarily processed to extract frames for analysis. These frames are sent to a third-party AI service (Claude by Anthropic) for technique evaluation. Video files are deleted from our servers after processing is complete. AI analysis results are stored in your account.

4. Data Sharing

We do not sell your personal data. We share information only:

  • With other users based on your privacy settings (public, friends-only, or private).
  • With AI service providers for video analysis (frames only, no personal data).
  • When required by law or to protect our rights.

5. Data Retention & Deletion

You can delete your account at any time from your Profile page. This permanently removes all your data including matches, posts, messages, AI sessions, and friend connections. Uploaded media files are deleted within 30 days of account deletion.

6. Security

We use industry-standard security measures including encrypted passwords (bcrypt), secure HTTPS connections, and JWT-based authentication. However, no method of transmission over the Internet is 100% secure.

7. Your Rights

  • Access, update, or delete your personal data through your Profile settings.
  • Control your profile visibility (public, friends-only, or private).
  • Opt out of push notifications at any time.
  • Request a copy of your data by contacting us.
