What we hold

What you send us through a form

Whatever you type into a contact or enquiry form, which is usually your name, your email address and your message. It is stored on this site and emailed to whoever looks after enquiries.

The fact that you visited

Our server keeps a short log of requests: the page, the time, your browser and your network address. It is how we find out that something is broken. Nobody reads it otherwise.

Your children, if you add them

A child's name and date of birth, and which adults may act for them. A child has a profile rather than a login. The date of birth is there because age decides which grades they may play in, and for nothing else.

Which squads you are in, and when you can play

Your answers to "are you playing on Tuesday" and the squads you belong to. Other people in your squad can see both, which is the point of them.

What you have paid

What was paid, when, and for what. Card numbers never reach this site: payment is handled on our behalf by a payment provider, and we are told only whether it succeeded.

Tickets you buy

The name and email on the booking, so the ticket can be sent to you and checked at the door.

Short links you follow

When one of our short links is used, we count it. We record the time and the browser, not who you are.

Who else sees anything

We do not sell anything about you and we do not hand it to anybody for their own use. These are the services this site needs in order to work:

Google reCAPTCHA

Checks that a form is being filled in by a person. Google sees the visit to any page carrying a form.

Our payment provider

Takes the card details directly, so they never pass through this site. They keep their own record of the payment.

Our email provider

Sends anything this site emails you, and knows the address it went to.

How long we keep it

For as long as you are involved with us, and for a while afterwards because people come back. Ask us to delete your record and we will, except where we have to keep something: a payment has to be accounted for, and a published result stays published because it is part of the record of a season.

What you can ask for

• A copy of everything we hold about you.
• Anything wrong corrected. Most of it you can correct yourself.
• Your record deleted, subject to the paragraph above.
• To be left alone: we will stop emailing you, and every email we send has an unsubscribe link.

Keeping it safe

The site is served over an encrypted connection. Passwords are stored scrambled and cannot be read back, by us or by anybody who took a copy of the database. We keep as little as we can, which is the only protection that always works.
