Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy describes how Falcon Forged Ventures LLC (“we,” “us”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use the Walkups iOS app (the “App”) and the website at https://getwalkups.com (the “Site”). It is written to meet the California Online Privacy Protection Act (CalOPPA) and the California Consumer Privacy Act as amended by the CPRA (“CCPA”), and it applies to everyone who uses the App or the Site, wherever they live.

The short version

• Walkups requires Sign in with Apple; every feature is team-based, so there is no mode without an account.
• Rosters, lineups, song picks, start points, scores, and field playlists live on your iPhone and are synced to our servers for the teams you belong to, so your teammates can see them.
• You can delete your account, and everything tied to it, from inside the App at any time.
• We do not run ads, we do not use analytics or tracking SDKs in the App, and we do not sell or share personal information.

Information we collect

Information you provide. Team names, logos, player names, nicknames, jersey numbers, positions, batting orders, song choices and start points, game details, and scores. If you add a player from your Contacts, the phone number or email you pick is kept on your device only and is used to address an invite that you send from your own Messages or Mail app.

Account information. Walkups requires Sign in with Apple; it is the only way to sign in, and every feature is team-based, so there is no mode without an account. When you sign in we receive a stable identifier from Apple, the email address Apple provides (which may be a private relay address), and, on first sign-in only, the name Apple shares. We store the identifier, the email, and the display name you choose.

Team data. Each team’s roster, games, lineups, song picks, and field playlist, along with who belongs to the team and their role, are stored on our servers so the members you invite can access them. Nobody outside a team can see its data; there is no public feed.

Music service data. To search and play music the App connects to Apple Music through Apple’s MusicKit, or to Spotify through Spotify’s API. Your sign-in with those services happens directly with Apple or Spotify under their own privacy policies (Apple, Spotify). A Spotify access token is stored only in your device’s Keychain. We do not receive your listening history or account details from either service.

Automatically collected information. The App contains no analytics, advertising, or crash reporting SDKs. The Site is hosted on Vercel, whose infrastructure records standard server logs (such as IP address, browser type, and pages requested) for security and operations. The Site does not set tracking cookies.

Support communications. If you email us, we keep the message and your email address so we can reply.

How we use information

• To provide the App and the Site, including syncing shared teams between members.
• To sign you in and keep your account secure.
• To respond to support requests and notify you about material changes to the service.
• To comply with law and protect our rights, users, and services.

We do not use your information for advertising, profiling, or automated decision-making.

How we share information

We do not sell personal information, and we do not share it for cross-context behavioral advertising. We disclose information only to:

• Service providers that process data on our behalf under contract: Supabase (database and authentication hosting for shared teams), Vercel (website hosting), and Apple (Sign in with Apple, App Store, MusicKit).
• Your teammates, for teams you choose to share. Owners and managers of a shared team can see the roster and game data you contribute.
• Legal and safety recipients when required by law, legal process, or to protect the rights, property, or safety of our users or the public.
• A successor in the event of a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets, subject to this policy.

Your choices and controls

• Delete your account anytime in the App: Settings → Account → Delete Account. This permanently deletes your account and profile, and any team that only you belong to. If you are the sole Owner of a team that has other members, the App asks you to make a teammate an Owner first so they keep their data.
• Delete a team in the App to remove its synced data from our servers.
• Revoke Walkups’ access to Apple Music in iOS Settings, or disconnect Spotify in the App’s Settings.
• Or email us and we will delete your account and any data associated with it for you.

Your California privacy rights

California residents have the right to know what personal information we collect, use, and disclose; to request deletion; to request correction of inaccurate information; to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information (we do neither); to limit the use of sensitive personal information (we collect none); and not to be discriminated against for exercising these rights. Whether or not the CCPA applies to us in a given year, we extend these rights to all users.

To exercise any of these rights, email support@getwalkups.com with the subject “Privacy request.” We will verify the request using the email associated with your account or by asking about details only the account holder would know, respond within 45 days, and honor requests made by an authorized agent with proof of authorization. We keep a record of requests as required by law.

Categories of personal information collected in the last 12 months: identifiers (Apple account identifier, email, name); customer records you enter (roster and game data); and internet activity limited to server logs for the Site. Sources: you, Apple, and the teammates who share a team with you. Business purposes: providing and securing the service. We do not collect precise geolocation, biometric, financial, health, or other sensitive personal information.

Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control. Because we do not track users across sites or sell or share personal information, browser Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control signals do not change how the Site behaves; the Site treats every visitor the same way.

Data retention

On-device data stays until you delete it or remove the App. Team data stays until the team is deleted or you delete your account (in the App, or by emailing us). Server logs are retained for a short period consistent with our hosting provider’s defaults. Support emails are kept as long as needed to resolve the request and for our records.

Security

Shared team data is transmitted over TLS and stored in access-controlled databases with row-level permissions, so members can only read the teams they belong to. No method of transmission or storage is perfectly secure; please keep your Apple ID protected.

Children

Walkups is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. Roster entries for minors on a team are added by adult team managers. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we will delete it.

Users outside the United States

Our servers are in the United States. By using the App or the Site you understand that your information is processed there. Where local law grants additional rights, such as access, portability, or objection, you may exercise them by contacting us.

Changes to this policy

We will post any changes on this page and update the date at the top. For material changes affecting account holders we will also notify you in the App or by email before the change takes effect.
