Who runs Force Out
Force Out is run by Frank Teichman. Contact: privacy@forceoutapp.com
What we collect
We collect your email address, the name you enter and the date you made the account. We collect sign-in codes, which expire after 15 minutes. We keep a session token in your phone's secure storage. We collect mail you send us.
When you join or set up a team, we also collect the team name, the sport, the season and your role on the team. If you are a parent or guardian, you can add your child. For a child, we collect a first name, a last initial and an age group. You enter these yourself.
What we do not collect
We do not collect passwords, phone numbers or location. We use no ads, analytics or tracking. Our logs do not record IP addresses, names or email addresses. The website sets no cookies, runs no scripts and keeps no access logs.
How we use it
We use your email address to send your sign-in codes. We use your name to show it in the app. We use mail you send us to answer you. We do not sell your information or use it for advertising.
Teams
Coaches and other staff see the first name and last initial of each child on their team, such as "Ava R.". They also see the name of the parent or guardian who asked for the child to join. Other members of the team see the first names and last initials of the players who have joined. They also see the first names and last initials of the coaches. Only a child's parents or guardians can see the child's age group.
Consent
When you add your child to a team, we ask for your consent first. We record that you agreed, along with the date of this policy. A coach then approves the request. Your child does not join the team, and nobody on the team sees your child, until the coach approves.
Leaving a team
When a child leaves a team, or a coach removes the child, your consent ends. We also remove the link between the child and the team. If no parent or guardian is left on the child, we clear the age group. When a team is deleted, its players are deleted too.
Who processes it
Amazon Web Services hosts the app in the United States and sends our email. Google also processes some data, because mail to our contact addresses is forwarded to a Gmail inbox. Google Fonts supplies the website's fonts, so your browser sends your IP address to Google when you open a page.
How long we keep it
- Your account: until you close it. Closing an account is final. It cannot be restored.
- After you close it: sign-in is removed within minutes. Account data is deleted after 30 days. Database backups keep it up to 7 more days.
- What survives: an audit record and a deletion record that hold only random IDs, action names and times, never your email or name. They show that the deletion happened.
- Logs: 14 days.
- Contact mail: 30 days in our mail store. The forwarded copy is deleted 12 months after your last message.
Your choices
You can change your name or close your account in Settings. Email privacy@forceoutapp.com for a copy of your data or any question. We reply within 30 days.
Children
Accounts are for adults. Children do not have accounts. A parent or guardian adds a child to a team from their own account. We do not knowingly collect information from children under 13 for an account. An account found to belong to one is deleted.
Security
We use TLS everywhere and encryption at rest. Only the operator has access.
Changes
When we change this policy, we change the date at the top.
