SportsThis policy says what SportsCalz collects when you visit, subscribe to a calendar or make an account, and who else is involved. Last updated November 10, 2026.
What we collect
You do not need an account to subscribe to a calendar, and we do not ask for your name or email to add one.
Accounts
You can make a free account to build calendars for your own teams. We keep your email address, your password (stored scrambled, so nobody can read it), and the first name you give us. If you tick the box to get emails from us, we keep the exact wording you agreed to and the date, and we only send that kind of email. You can ask us to stop or to delete your account through the contact page. We do not sell or share your email address.
If you invite someone to edit one of your calendars, they can see and change its games and settings until you remove them. If you put a calendar on another website, we count how often it is shown, the same way we count clicks.
If you use “Add games from a screenshot or text”, the picture or text you send is passed to Anthropic, the company that makes the Claude AI, so it can be read into a list of games for you to check. We do not keep the picture or the text after it is read. Anthropic handles it under its own privacy policy. Please crop out anything private, such as phone numbers, before you send it.
To stop spam accounts, the sign-up and sign-in forms keep a scrambled code made from your connection for one hour, then delete it. It cannot be turned back into an address.
The calendars you make, and the games, places and notes you put in them, are stored on our server. A public calendar can be seen by anyone and can show up in search engines. A private calendar is seen only by you and by people you give its link to. Anyone with the link can see it and subscribe, so share it only with people you trust, and reset the link in My Calendars if it goes too far. Please do not put children’s full names, addresses or other personal details in a calendar.
Analytics
SportsCalz uses Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages people read. Google Analytics sets cookies in your browser and records things like the pages you view, how long you stay, your general location, your device and your browser. We use it only to understand how the site is used. Google handles this information under its own privacy policy, and you can opt out with Google’s opt-out browser add-on.
Calendar subscriptions
When you subscribe, your calendar app or calendar service, such as Apple, Google or Microsoft, checks our calendar link from time to time to pick up changes. We count those checks to see how many people use each calendar. We do not store IP addresses for this. To count each device once a day, we keep a scrambled code that cannot be turned back into an address, and we delete it after two days. The calendar link names only the team and the calendar app, nothing about you.
When you tap a subscribe button, we count the tap with the team, the calendar app and the type of device, and nothing else. Each game in your calendar has short links back to SportsCalz and to our sister site SportsDealz. We count clicks on those links the same way.
Saved on your device
SportsCalz remembers on your own device which calendar app you chose and which teams you added, so the right button comes first on your next visit. This stays in your browser’s storage and is never sent to us. Clearing your browser’s site data removes it.
Cookies: when you sign in, WordPress sets the cookies that keep you signed in. When you arrive from a link that says where it came from, such as a calendar shown on a team’s own website, we set one cookie for 30 days that holds only that source. If you make an account during that time, the source is saved with your account so we can see which links bring in new calendar makers. Apart from these and the Google Analytics cookies described above, SportsCalz sets no cookies.
The contact form
If you use the contact form, we keep what you send, which is your name, email, subject and message, so we can answer you. The form also records your IP address and browser with it, which helps us block spam. We use it only to answer you, and we do not sell it or share it.
Who else is involved
Like every website, SportsCalz runs on servers that keep standard logs, including your IP address and browser type. The site is hosted by Hostinger and protected by Cloudflare, and both handle that information under their own privacy policies. Cloudflare may set a small security cookie. Pages load the Archivo typeface from Google Fonts, so your browser contacts Google when a page loads.
Children
SportsCalz is meant for a general audience and does not knowingly collect information from children.
