Privacy Policy

• Account details — your email address, display name, username, and chosen emoji avatar.
• Google sign-in data — if you sign in with Google, we receive your email address and basic profile name from Google. We never receive your Google password.
• Phone number — only if phone verification is enabled for your signup. It is used solely to send a one-time verification code and to prevent duplicate accounts. Codes are delivered by Twilio.
• Gameplay data — challenges, wagers, point balance, ELO rating and history, friendships, comments, and reactions.
• Push tokens — if you enable push notifications, we store a device token so we can alert you about challenges and results. Push delivery uses Google Firebase Cloud Messaging.
• Diagnostics — anonymous page view counts and crash reports (error message, screen, browser type) used to fix breakage.

To run the game: authenticate you, settle challenges, calculate rankings, show friend activity, send you notifications you asked for, prevent abuse, and fix bugs. We do not sell your data and we do not run advertising networks against it.

Your username, avatar, point balance, ELO, and rank are visible to other players on leaderboards and profiles. Your challenge activity is visible to the people you challenge and to your friends in the Live Feed. Your email address and phone number are never shown to other users.

FACEOFF runs on Lovable Cloud for its database, authentication, and backend functions. Twilio delivers verification texts. Google Firebase delivers push notifications. Sports results come from publicly available ESPN endpoints. These providers process data only to deliver those functions.

We keep your account data for as long as your account exists. You can delete your account at any time from Account Settings — this permanently removes your profile, challenge history, ELO history, friendships, comments, notifications, and push tokens, and refunds any open challenges to both players. Aggregate operational logs that contain no personal identifiers may be retained.

You can edit your display name, username, and avatar at any time, turn push notifications off from Account Settings or your browser, and delete your account. To request a copy of your data, use the feedback form in Account Settings.

FACEOFF is not intended for anyone under 18 and we do not knowingly collect their data.
