Privacy Policy

Last updated: February 27, 2026

Scoriii (“we,” “our,” or “the app”) is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how the Scoriii iOS and watchOS application handles your data. The short version: we don’t collect any of it.

1. Data We DON’T Collect

Scoriii is designed with a strict no-collection architecture. We do NOT collect:

• Personal information — no names, email addresses, phone numbers, or physical addresses
• Health or fitness data — no heart rate, calorie, or workout data leaves your device
• Location data — no GPS coordinates, IP-based location, or geofencing
• Browsing history — no web activity, search queries, or referral data
• Device identifiers — no UDID, serial number, or hardware fingerprinting
• Third-party analytics — no Google Analytics, Firebase, Mixpanel, or any analytics SDK
• Personally identifiable data — no data that could identify you as an individual
• Advertising identifiers (IDFA) — we do not use or request the Identifier for Advertisers

2. Local-Only Data Storage

All data you enter in Scoriii stays on your device. The app uses Apple’s SwiftData framework for persistent local storage. The following data types are stored exclusively on your device:

• Match scores — game scores, set scores, and final results for all six racket sports
• Player profiles — player names, preferred sports, and display preferences
• Elo ratings — calculated skill ratings per sport for each player
• Match history — completed matches, dates, durations, and outcomes
• Settings — sport-specific scoring rules, notification preferences, and display options
• Partnership stats — doubles partnership records, win/loss ratios, and performance data

This data is never transmitted to any server, API, or third-party service.

3. Apple Watch Data

Scoriii includes an Apple Watch companion app for on-wrist score tracking during matches:

• Match scores and game state are synced between your iPhone and Apple Watch using Apple’s WatchConnectivity framework
• Workout data (heart rate, calories burned, duration) is recorded via HealthKit during active matches on your Apple Watch
• All data exchange occurs directly between your paired devices — no external servers are involved
• Watch data is stored locally on your Apple Watch and synced to your iPhone on-device

No Apple Watch data is transmitted to any external service or server.

4. iCloud Sync (Optional)

Scoriii offers optional iCloud synchronization for all users. If you enable iCloud sync:

• Your data is stored in your personal iCloud account, not on our servers
• Data is encrypted by Apple both in transit and at rest
• Access is controlled exclusively by your Apple ID
• You can disable iCloud sync at any time in the app or iOS Settings
• Synced data allows you to access your information across multiple Apple devices
• iCloud data is subject to Apple’s Privacy Policy

We have no access to your iCloud data. Apple manages all cloud infrastructure.

5. App Permissions

Scoriii may request the following permissions. All are optional and can be revoked at any time in iOS Settings:

• HealthKit — used to record workout data (heart rate, calories, duration) during matches on Apple Watch. Health data is stored in Apple Health and never leaves your device.
• Local Network — used for Challenge Mode peer-to-peer connectivity via MultipeerConnectivity. Data is exchanged only between nearby devices during active matches.
• Location — used for optional match tagging with city and country metadata. Location data is processed on-device and never transmitted externally.
• Notifications — used for match reminders and score alerts. All notifications are scheduled locally.
• iCloud — used for optional cross-device sync. Data goes to your personal iCloud account only.

You can review and revoke any permission at any time in iOS Settings > Scoriii.

6. HealthKit Data

Scoriii integrates with Apple’s HealthKit framework to enhance your match experience:

• Heart rate — recorded during active matches on Apple Watch to track workout intensity
• Calories burned — estimated energy expenditure during matches
• Workout duration — match length recorded as a workout session in Apple Health

All HealthKit data is stored exclusively in Apple Health on your device. Scoriii:

• Never accesses raw health data beyond active match workouts
• Never transmits health data to any server or third party
• Never sells, shares, or uses health data for advertising or analytics
• Only writes workout data to HealthKit — it does not read your existing health records

HealthKit data is subject to Apple’s Privacy Policy and Apple’s strict HealthKit usage guidelines.

7. Challenge Mode (Peer-to-Peer)

Scoriii’s Challenge Mode allows nearby players to connect and play matches together using Apple’s MultipeerConnectivity framework:

• Data is exchanged directly between nearby devices via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth — no server relay
• Only match-related data (scores, game state, player names) is shared during an active session
• Connections are temporary and exist only for the duration of the match
• No data from Challenge Mode is stored on any external server
• Both players must explicitly accept the connection before any data is exchanged

Challenge Mode uses Apple’s peer-to-peer networking, which is encrypted and limited to nearby devices. No internet connection is required.

8. Location Data

Scoriii offers optional location tagging for matches:

• When enabled, your current city and country are attached as metadata to completed matches
• Only coarse location data (city/country) is stored — no precise GPS coordinates are retained
• Location data is processed and stored entirely on your device
• Location data is never transmitted to any external server or third party
• You can disable location access at any time in iOS Settings
• Existing match location tags can be deleted individually within the app

9. Purchase & Payment Processing

Scoriii offers an optional one-time Pro upgrade that unlocks voice announcements, Display Mode, and keep-display-awake functionality:

• One-time Pro upgrade via the App Store

All payment processing is handled exclusively through Apple’s StoreKit 2 framework:

• Apple processes all billing, payments, and refunds
• We never see or store your payment information, credit card details, or Apple ID
• Purchase status is verified locally via StoreKit 2 — no server-side receipt validation
• Payment data is subject to Apple’s Privacy Policy

10. No Network Transmission

Scoriii does not include any of the following:

• No backend servers or APIs
• No analytics SDKs (Google Analytics, Firebase Analytics, Mixpanel, etc.)
• No advertising networks or ad SDKs
• No tracking pixels or web beacons
• No crash reporting services (Crashlytics, Sentry, etc.)
• No A/B testing frameworks
• No social media SDKs

The only network activity that may occur is optional iCloud synchronization (handled entirely by Apple’s CloudKit framework) and Challenge Mode peer-to-peer connections (handled entirely by Apple’s MultipeerConnectivity framework, which operates over local Wi-Fi or Bluetooth without internet).

11. Third-Party Services

Scoriii does not integrate any third-party services that collect user data. The only Apple frameworks used are:

• WatchConnectivity — for syncing match data between iPhone and Apple Watch (direct device-to-device)
• MultipeerConnectivity — for Challenge Mode peer-to-peer play (local network only, no internet)
• HealthKit — for recording workout data during matches (stored in Apple Health on-device)
• CloudKit — for optional iCloud sync (data stored in your iCloud account)
• StoreKit 2 — for in-app purchase management (handled by Apple)

Apple acts as a data processor for CloudKit data under the Apple Developer Program License Agreement (DPLA), which includes data processing provisions compliant with GDPR Article 28.

12. Data Security

Your data is protected by multiple layers of Apple’s security architecture:

• iOS Sandboxing — the app’s data container is isolated from all other apps
• Device Encryption — all data at rest is protected by your device’s hardware encryption
• SwiftData Secure Storage — data is stored in Apple’s modern persistence framework with built-in security
• No Network Exposure — since data never leaves your device (except via optional iCloud or local peer-to-peer), there is no attack surface for network-based threats
• HealthKit Protection — health data is additionally protected by Apple’s HealthKit security framework, which requires explicit user authorization for each data type

13. Your Rights (GDPR)

Under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), you have the following rights regarding your personal data:

• Right to Access — you can view all your data directly within the app at any time
• Right to Rectification — you can edit any data directly within the app
• Right to Erasure — you can delete individual matches, players, or all data via the app’s settings. Uninstalling the app permanently removes all local data.
• Right to Data Portability — your data is stored locally and accessible on your device
• Right to Object — since we do not process your data, there is nothing to object to
• Right to Restrict Processing — all processing occurs locally on your device and can be stopped by closing or uninstalling the app
• Right to Withdraw Consent — you can revoke any granted permissions (HealthKit, location, notifications, iCloud) at any time in iOS Settings

Because Scoriii does not collect or transmit personal data, most GDPR provisions are satisfied by design.

Right to Lodge a Complaint — You have the right to lodge a complaint with a data protection supervisory authority. The competent authority is:

Der Hamburgische Beauftragte für Datenschutz und Informationsfreiheit
Ludwig-Erhard-Str 22, 7. OG
20459 Hamburg
Email: mailbox@datenschutz.hamburg.de
Website: https://datenschutz.hamburg.de

14. Data Retention

• Data remains on your device for as long as the app is installed
• Uninstalling Scoriii permanently deletes all locally stored data
• If iCloud sync is enabled, data persists in your iCloud account until you manually delete it via iCloud Settings

15. Children’s Privacy (COPPA)

Scoriii complies with the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA):

• We do not collect data from any user, including children under the age of 13
• The app has no online interactions, user accounts, or registration
• There is no advertising of any kind within the app

Because Scoriii does not collect any personal information from anyone, it is inherently compliant with COPPA requirements.

16. International Data Transfers

• Scoriii does not transfer any data internationally, as all data is stored locally on your device
• If iCloud sync is enabled, Apple may store your data in data centers located in various countries. These transfers are governed by Apple’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) and the Apple Developer Program License Agreement

17. California Privacy Rights (CCPA)

Under the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), California residents have additional rights. Scoriii’s position:

• We do not sell personal information to any third party
• We do not share personal information for cross-context behavioral advertising
• We do not collect personal information as defined by the CCPA

Because Scoriii does not collect, store, or transmit personal information to any server, CCPA requirements are satisfied by design.

18. Changes to Privacy Policy

• Any updates to this Privacy Policy will be posted within the app and on this page
• Significant changes will be highlighted in App Store release notes
• Previous versions of this policy are available upon request by emailing info@jgeider.com

19. Contact Information

If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us:

• Email: info@jgeider.com
• Response time: within 48 hours

20. Verification

You can independently verify our privacy claims using the following methods:

• iOS Network Usage — check Settings > Cellular to confirm Scoriii uses no cellular data (unless iCloud sync is enabled)
• Privacy Indicators — iOS displays location indicators when in use; Scoriii only triggers these during optional match location tagging
• Network Monitoring Tools — use any network proxy or monitoring tool to verify that Scoriii makes no outbound connections (except optional iCloud and local peer-to-peer)
• App Privacy Report — check Settings > Privacy & Security > App Privacy Report to review Scoriii’s data and sensor access

21. Legal Basis for Processing (GDPR)

Where applicable under GDPR, our legal bases for processing data are:

• Consent — you provide explicit consent when granting app permissions (HealthKit, location, notifications, iCloud)
• Contract — processing is necessary to provide the app’s functionality that you have requested (score tracking, match history, player statistics)
• Legitimate Interest — on-device processing to improve app performance and personalize your experience, with no impact on your privacy

22. Automated Decision-Making

Scoriii does not perform automated decision-making or profiling as defined by GDPR Article 22. Elo rating calculations are deterministic mathematical computations based on match outcomes and do not constitute profiling. All calculations occur entirely on your device and do not produce legal or similarly significant effects.

Summary: Your match data stays on your device. We don’t collect, transmit, or sell your data. Period.
