Privacy policy

How we collect, use and protect personal information on the FootyPeople website and platform.

Draft for review. Items shown like [THIS] must be confirmed by Raddco Technologies before publication.

Last updated: [DATE]

1. Who we are

FootyPeople is operated by Raddco Technologies ([LEGAL ENTITY NAME, e.g. Raddco Technologies Limited]), [LEGAL ENTITY ADDRESS], [COUNTRY OF REGISTRATION, e.g. United States] ("we", "us"), operating from the United States and Sierra Leone. We are the data controller for personal information collected through this website (footypeople.com) and, in relation to the FootyPeople platform, we act on behalf of the association or club that is our customer.

2. Information we collect

Website visitors

  • Contact form: your name, email address, organisation, phone number (if given), the type of organisation you are enquiring for, your message, and the page you sent it from.
  • Technical data: IP address, browser type and the pages requested, which our hosting provider (Cloudflare) processes to deliver the site and protect it from abuse. We use this to rate-limit the contact form and to detect automated submissions.

Platform users

  • Account data: name, email address, password (stored only as a salted hash) and the roles assigned to you.
  • Football records: information your association or club enters about players, coaches, referees, staff, contracts, transfers, injuries, training attendance, fines, match events and photographs.
  • Usage records: who created or changed a record and when, kept as an audit trail.

We do not use third-party analytics or advertising trackers on this website.

3. How we use it

  • To respond to your enquiry and arrange a demo.
  • To provide, secure and support the FootyPeople platform for our customers.
  • To send service notices about the platform. We do not send marketing email without your consent.
  • To comply with legal obligations.

4. Platform data and our customers

When an association or club uses FootyPeople, that organisation decides what personal information is entered and who may see it. Each customer's data is held in an isolated tenant. We process that data only on the customer's instructions and under our agreement with them. If you are a player, coach, official or supporter whose details are held in FootyPeople, please contact your association or club in the first instance; we will help them respond to your request.

5. Sharing and sub-processors

We do not sell personal information. We share it only with the service providers needed to run FootyPeople:

  • Cloudflare, Inc. — hosting, content delivery, security and media storage (R2).
  • [DATABASE PROVIDER, e.g. Neon, Inc.] — managed PostgreSQL hosting in [DATABASE REGION].
  • Professional advisers and authorities where the law requires it.

6. International transfers

Our providers may store or process data outside your country, including in the United States and [OTHER REGIONS, e.g. the European Union]. Where they do, we rely on contractual safeguards that require a level of protection comparable to the privacy laws that apply to us.

7. Retention

Contact-form enquiries are kept for [RETENTION PERIOD, e.g. 24 months] after our last correspondence. Platform records are retained for as long as the customer's agreement is in force and for [POST-TERMINATION PERIOD, e.g. 90 days] afterwards, unless the customer asks for earlier deletion or the law requires longer. Records in the platform are soft-deleted first and purged on a schedule.

8. Security

All traffic is encrypted in transit. Passwords are hashed with ASP.NET Core Identity. Access is controlled by roles and permissions, and sign-in tokens are short-lived and rotated. Mobile apps store tokens in the device's secure storage only.

9. Your rights

Under the privacy laws that apply to you, which may include United States state privacy laws, the Sierra Leone data protection framework and, where it applies, the GDPR, you may ask to access or correct personal information we hold about you, and in some cases to have it deleted or restricted. To exercise these rights, use the contact form or write to [PRIVACY CONTACT EMAIL]. You may also complain to the data protection regulator in your country.

10. Cookies

This website sets no cookies of its own. The admin console at admin.footypeople.com uses strictly necessary cookies to keep you signed in.

11. Changes

We will post any changes to this policy on this page and update the date above. Material changes affecting platform users will be notified to our customers.
