Courtempo Scorekeeper privacy policy · Updated 4 November 2026

Privacy questions: [email protected].

Who is responsible

Courtempo is operated by Piccolo Events Limited, which is responsible for personal information received for support and operation of this website. For privacy questions or requests, email [email protected]. Full company details appear in the legal information below.

Your game stays on your device

Courtempo works offline. It does not send scores, team names, game settings or saved games to the developer. The app has no accounts, advertising, tracking or third-party analytics. This release has no companion connection, remote control or cross-device game sync.

What the app saves

Your current game, team names, colours, scores, team fouls, period history, clock values, timeout and possession choices, device preferences, game presets, saved game summaries and queued next-game setup are saved in the app's private storage. This allows restoration after closing the app. A fresh process launch restores saved clocks and any saved timeout paused.

Normal Apple device or iCloud backups may include app data and settings, according to your Apple backup settings. Courtempo has no developer-operated cloud storage. Backups are not live cross-device synchronisation.

Your choices

Game menu → Reset game lets you review a new game and optionally save the current summary before replacing it. Names, team colours and device settings are retained as described in the app. You can delete individual archived summaries from Saved games after confirmation, without deleting the current game or previously shared copies.

Sharing a summary is optional and uses Apple's share interface. The destination you choose receives the summary and handles it under its own practices. Uninstalling the app removes its local data; offloading is different. Retained backups are managed through Apple settings. We cannot access or recover games stored only on your device.

Optional clock notifications

If you grant notification permission, Courtempo schedules local clock-expiry notifications on your device. No server or push service is involved. Device volume, Silent Mode, Focus and notification settings affect delivery and sound.

Feedback, support and TestFlight

When you email [email protected], we receive your email address and the information you choose to send. We use it to respond and investigate problems, retaining correspondence only as needed for that purpose and applicable obligations. Contact us to request deletion of correspondence, subject to applicable retention requirements.

For beta users, Apple processes TestFlight usage, crashes and feedback under its own terms. The developer may receive beta statistics, crash reports and screenshots or feedback you submit. Please avoid including private information in screenshots. Beta feedback can also be sent to [email protected].

This webpage and external links

The courtempo.com website is hosted by Cloudflare Pages. Cloudflare processes connection and security information, such as IP addresses, request times and browser details, to deliver and protect the website. We do not add advertising, analytics, contact forms or remote fonts. Hosting security features may use strictly necessary technologies. See Cloudflare’s privacy policy. Support and testing email is handled through Apple iCloud Mail; see Apple’s privacy policy. External links and email use the relevant provider’s services.

Why we use information

Support information may include your name, email address, messages, device and app version, and screenshots or diagnostic details you choose to send. We use it to answer questions, investigate faults and maintain the service. Website connection information may include IP addresses, browser details, requested pages and request times used by the host to deliver and protect the website.

Where UK or EU data-protection law applies, our legal grounds are legitimate interests in providing support and maintaining a secure, reliable service; performance of a contract where processing is necessary to provide contractual support; and legal obligation for records the law requires. Where processing relies on consent, you may withdraw it at any time without affecting earlier lawful processing.

Contacting support is voluntary. Without relevant information we may be unable to investigate your request. Please avoid sending sensitive information, children’s personal information or unrelated personal details. We do not use support messages for advertising or make decisions with legal or similarly significant effects about you by automated means.

Who receives information

Apple iCloud Mail handles [email protected] and [email protected], including message contents, attachments and delivery information. Cloudflare provides domain and website hosting services, including connection and security processing. Apple handles App Store transactions, device backups and TestFlight information under its own terms. Information may also be disclosed where necessary to comply with law or protect legal rights. Sharing a game summary is your choice; the recipient you select receives that summary.

How long information is kept

Local game data remains on your device until replaced or deleted using the app or Apple’s device controls. Apple manages any retained backups according to your settings and its policies. We keep support correspondence while a request is active and for 12 months after resolution, then delete it or remove identifying details. We may retain necessary records longer for an unresolved dispute or legal obligation; those records are kept only as long as that purpose requires. Provider connection and security records follow the applicable provider’s retention arrangements.

International processing

Apple and Cloudflare operate internationally and may process information in the United States and other countries where they or their service providers operate. Apple’s policy identifies Apple Distribution International Limited in Ireland as controller for relevant UK and EEA personal data and describes standard contractual clauses for international transfers. Cloudflare’s data-processing terms provide applicable EU standard contractual clauses and the UK Addendum for restricted transfers, alongside other applicable transfer arrangements. We use the applicable provider arrangements for processing for which we are responsible. Contact [email protected] for information about relevant safeguards. See Apple’s privacy policy and Cloudflare’s data-processing terms.

Your UK and EU privacy rights

Depending on the circumstances, you may ask for access, correction, deletion, restriction or portability of personal information we hold. You may object to processing based on legitimate interests and withdraw consent where we rely on it. These rights have exceptions and do not give us access to game files stored only on your device.

Send requests to [email protected]. We may need proportionate information to verify your identity. We aim to respond without undue delay and within one month; applicable law allows an extension for some complex or multiple requests, which we will explain where used.

You may complain to the UK Information Commissioner’s Office or your relevant EU supervisory authority, including where you live, work or believe an infringement occurred. You can contact an authority directly.

US privacy information

Courtempo has no advertising, cross-site behavioural tracking or third-party analytics. We do not sell personal information, share it for cross-context behavioural advertising, or use it for targeted advertising. Our website adds no analytics or advertising cookies; Cloudflare provides the hosting and security processing described above.

We do not track people across other companies’ websites, so browser Do Not Track signals do not change the app’s behaviour. Any legally applicable opt-out preference signals will be handled as required by the relevant law.

Depending on your state and whether its law applies to our business, you may have rights to access, correct, delete or obtain a copy of personal information, opt out of specified processing, or appeal a refused request. Contact [email protected] to make a request or appeal. We will explain a refusal and any appeal route required by applicable law. We do not discriminate against people for exercising applicable privacy rights.

Children’s information

Courtempo is intended for general basketball users, coaches and officials and is not specifically directed at children under 13. The app does not require an account, age, player profile or personal information to keep score. We do not knowingly collect personal information online from children under 13. If you believe a child has sent us personal information, contact [email protected] so we can investigate and delete it where appropriate. Parents and coaches should avoid including children’s identifying information in support messages and screenshots.

Security

We use reasonable safeguards appropriate to the information we handle. No internet or email service can guarantee absolute security. Please do not send passwords, payment details or Apple verification codes. Local device security and Apple backup controls are managed through your Apple settings.
