Privacy & safety — a guide for parents
SoccerTools is built for young players. That means we take what we collect, who can see it, and how long we keep it seriously. Here's the plain-English version.
What we collect
- Account basics: email, username, age band, and (optionally) home club.
- Training activity: drills completed, time on timer, reps, badges, leaderboard standing.
- Video clips the player uploads to the AI Video Analyzer.
- Notes the player writes in MyWork.
We do not sell personal data, and we don't run third-party ad trackers.
Who can see your child's videos
By default, only your child can see clips they upload. A clip becomes visible to someone else only when the player explicitly shares it:
- Share with coach sends a clip to one coach the player has connected with.
- Nothing is public unless the player chooses to post it themselves (and we don't have a public feed today).
Parental consent & age
- Players under the platform's minimum age need a parent or guardian to accept the video release before any clip can be uploaded.
- The release is plain English, on one screen, and can be revoked at any time from Account & Settings.
Coaches and clubs
- A coach can only see clips the player chose to share with them.
- Setting a home club just helps with grouping — it does not grant club staff access to your child's content.
- Coaches on the platform are approved by an admin before they can receive shared clips.
Deleting data
- Delete a single clip: open the entry in MyWork → ⋯ → Delete.
- Delete the account: Account & Settings → Delete account. This removes the profile, videos, notes, and stats within 30 days.
- For a manual request, use the Contact page and we'll handle it personally.
