At Fantasy Draft Race (accessible at https://fantasydraftrace.com, "we", "us", or "our"), your privacy is of paramount importance. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how we protect your data, and your rights under applicable data protection laws (including GDPR and CCPA).

1. Information We Collect

We believe in minimal data collection. We only collect the minimal information necessary to deliver our 16-bit draft order simulation services:

• Fantasy League Data (Public Metadata): When you import a Sleeper or ESPN fantasy football league, our service retrieves public league metadata (such as public team names, manager handles, user avatars, and roster counts) through public API endpoints or text provided by you. We do not store or require your fantasy platform passwords.
• Account & Sign-In Data: If you sign in or purchase a commissioner pass, we collect your email address for magic link sign-in authentication and transaction receipts.
• Payment Information: All payments for seasonal commissioner passes and tips are processed directly by our payment processor, Stripe, Inc. We never receive, store, or process your credit card numbers or banking information. Stripe handles all payment details in accordance with PCI-DSS Level 1 compliance.
• Usage Data & Analytics: We may collect anonymous browser technical data (such as browser type, operating system, page views, and referrers) to maintain server performance and optimize game physics rendering.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect strictly to:

• Simulate 16-bit football touchdown draft order races with your custom league roster.
• Generate deterministic match permalinks (?seed=...) and downloadable Championship graphic cards (.png).
• Authenticate commissioner access to cloud-saved rosters and seasonal pass features.
• Process transactions and provide customer support.
• Protect our website against fraud, spam, and abuse.

3. Cookies and Local Storage

We use browser localStorage to store your client-side league preferences (e.g. sound volume, selected stadium theme, draft mode) directly on your device. We do not sell your personal information or use tracking cookies for third-party advertising networks.

4. Third-Party Services

We may share information with trusted third-party service providers only to the extent necessary to provide our services:

• Stripe, Inc.: Payment processing for seasonal commissioner passes. (View Stripe's Privacy Policy).
• Sleeper (Blitz Studios, Inc.): Public roster querying via public API endpoints.
• Cloudflare / Edge Hosting: Content delivery network, SSL encryption, and DDoS mitigation.

5. Data Retention & Security

We retain account records for as long as your commissioner pass is active or as necessary to comply with legal obligations. We implement industry-standard HTTPS/TLS encryption and strict security measures to protect your data from unauthorized access, alteration, or disclosure.

6. Your Privacy Rights (GDPR & CCPA)

Depending on your jurisdiction, you have the right to:

• Request access to the personal data we hold about you.
• Request correction or deletion of your personal data.
• Opt-out of any marketing communications.
• Withdraw consent at any time without affecting the lawfulness of processing prior to withdrawal.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us at [email protected].

7. Children's Privacy

Fantasy Draft Race is intended for general audiences and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under the age of 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately for prompt deletion.

8. Changes to This Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or applicable legal requirements. The updated policy will be posted on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date.
