Privacy Policy

The short version

Who is responsible

This site is operated by Fuzzy Sports (“we”), who is the data controller for the information described here. For anything in this policy — including a request to see or delete your data — write to hello@fuzzysports.com.

What we collect, and why

That is the complete list. We do not ask for your real name, your address, your date of birth, or any payment details — and we could not use payment details if we had them, because nothing in this game costs money or pays out money.

Cookies

This site sets exactly one cookie, and it is strictly necessary for the service to work:

We use no analytics cookies, no advertising cookies and no third-party cookies. Nothing on this site follows you anywhere else, and no page loads a script, font, image or style from another company’s server — a Content-Security-Policy on every response forbids it outright.

This is also why you were not shown a cookie banner. Under the ePrivacy rules a banner asks your permission for cookies that are not essential, and there are none here to ask about. A banner in that situation would be theatre: it would train you to dismiss a box that protects nothing. If we ever add advertising or analytics — neither is in place today — we will ask properly, before setting anything, and update this page.

Who else handles your data

We keep the list of companies involved as short as we can. Today it is two:

Both act as processors on our instructions. Neither is permitted to use your information for their own purposes. Depending on where these services run, your data may be processed outside your country, including in the United States.

Player names, statistics and schedules come from public sources (nflverse). That is a one-directional pull of public sporting facts into this site — nothing about you is sent anywhere as part of it.

Why we are allowed to hold it

If the UK or EU GDPR applies to you, our legal bases are: performance of a contract for your account and everything you do in the game, since we cannot run a league for you without them; and our legitimate interests in keeping the service secure and working, for the infrastructure logs. We do not rely on consent, because we do not do anything with your data that would require it.

Your rights

You can ask us to show you what we hold about you, correct it, delete it, export it in a portable form, or restrict or object to what we do with it. Write to hello@fuzzysports.com and we will respond within one month.

Deleting your account removes your email address, display name and game records. One caveat we would rather state than bury: deleting a manager mid-season affects the league other people are playing in, so we may retain an anonymised trace — a record that a trade happened, with no person attached — where that is needed to keep other managers’ settled results correct. Nothing in that trace identifies you.

If you are in the UK or EEA and think we have got this wrong, you can complain to your national data protection authority. We would rather you told us first.

Children

This game is not intended for children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect anything from them. If you believe a child has given us their information, write to [CONTACT EMAIL] and we will delete it. See also the age requirement in the Terms of Service.

Security

We never see or store a password, because there isn’t one — signing in is a link emailed to an address you control. Your session cookie is signed and cannot be read by JavaScript. Traffic to the site is encrypted in transit. No system is perfect, and we will not pretend otherwise; if a breach affects you, we will tell you.

Changes

If we change this policy we will update the date at the top. If a change actually matters — a new category of data, a new company handling it, or anything that would need your consent — we will say so clearly rather than quietly reposting the page.
