This policy explains what information Prove Your Pick (“we”, “us”) collects when you use proveyourpick.com and its app, what we do with it, and the choices you have. We do not sell your personal information.
1. What we collect
Information you give us:
- Your username, email address and password. Passwords are stored encrypted by our sign-in provider and we cannot read them.
- Your profile picture and any social media links you add.
- Your picks, targets, reasons, comments, votes, duels and answers to daily questions.
- Who you follow and who invited you.
- Reports you send us about other people's posts.
Information collected automatically:
- A sign-in cookie that keeps you signed in. We do not use advertising cookies.
- If you turn on notifications, a push address for your device.
- Basic technical logs such as IP address, browser type and error reports, kept by our hosting provider.
2. What is public
The game is public by design. Your username, profile picture, social links, picks, targets, results, comments, votes and leaderboard positions can be seen by anyone, and may appear in share images or on our social media. Your email address and password are never shown to other people.
3. How we use it
- To run the game: record your picks, score them and show leaderboards.
- To keep your account safe and to stop cheating and abuse.
- To send emails you need, such as confirming your address or resetting your password, and updates you can turn off.
- To send notifications, only if you turn them on.
- To run contests and contact winners.
- To understand what works and improve the service.
4. Who we share it with
We share information only with companies that help us run the service, and only what they need: our database and sign-in provider (Supabase), our hosting provider (Vercel), our email provider (Resend), and an AI provider (Anthropic) that helps summarize public company filings and news. We may also share information if the law requires it, to protect people from harm, or if the service is sold or merged.
5. How long we keep it
We keep your information while your account is open. Picks are a permanent public record while your account exists. If you delete your account, we delete or anonymise your personal information within 30 days, except where we must keep it by law.
6. Your choices
- Change your profile picture and social links on your profile.
- Turn notifications and update emails off at any time.
- Ask for a copy of your information, ask us to correct it, or ask us to delete your account by emailing us.
Depending on where you live, you may have extra rights under laws such as the GDPR or the California Consumer Privacy Act. Email us and we will help.
7. Children
The service is not for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you think a child under 13 has signed up, email us and we will delete the account.
8. Security
We use encryption and access controls to protect your information, but no service is perfectly secure. Use a password you do not use anywhere else.
9. Changes
If we change this policy, we will update the date at the top. If a change matters, we will tell you in the app or by email.
