Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 2026

Starting Lineup ("we", "us", or "our") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how we handle your information when you use our web application.

What Information We Collect

Starting Lineup is designed to work without collecting personal data. Your lineup data (player names, positions, kit settings) is stored locally in your browser using localStorage and is never sent to our servers.

When you visit the app, our hosting provider may automatically collect basic technical information such as your IP address, browser type, and pages visited. This is standard web server logging and is not used to identify you personally.

Cookies

Starting Lineup does not use tracking cookies or analytics services. Your browser may store essential data required for the app to function (such as localStorage), but we do not use cookies for advertising or tracking purposes.

Shared Lineups

When you use the Share feature, your lineup data is encoded directly into the URL. Anyone with that URL can view the lineup data it contains. We do not store shared lineups on our servers. Be mindful of what player information you include when sharing lineup URLs publicly.

Third-Party Services

Our app is hosted on third-party infrastructure. These providers may process basic server logs as part of their service. We do not share any personal information with third parties for marketing or advertising purposes.

Data Security

Since your data is stored locally in your browser, you have full control over it. You can clear your lineup data at any time by using the Reset feature or clearing your browser's localStorage.

Your Rights

Since we do not collect or store personal data on our servers, there is typically no personal data for us to provide, correct, or delete. If you have any concerns, please contact us.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated date.
