Privacy Policy

To operate Formula A we collect the following categories of information:

• Account information — the email address and sign-in details used to create and access a Formula A account.
• Team and program information — team names, competitive level, roster size, and similar coaching context a coach chooses to enter.
• Coaching content — practices, drills, notes, ratings, schedules, and other material a coach creates or saves in Formula A.
• Coaching staff contacts — the name, role, and mobile number a head coach enters for the adult coaching staff they work with.
• Product usage information — basic records of actions taken in the product so features work correctly and can be improved.

Formula A is built for coaching staff and team-level planning. We do not ask for, and coaches should not enter, athlete medical or health details, birthdates, school identifiers, home addresses, or other sensitive youth information.

• To create and secure accounts and keep coaching content available to the coach who owns it.
• To generate, save, schedule, print, and share practice plans.
• To deliver coaching communications a recipient has asked to receive.
• To operate, troubleshoot, secure, and improve the Formula A service.
• To meet legal obligations where they apply.

A head coach may store mobile numbers for their adult coaching staff so practice plans and coaching updates can reach them. A stored number is never treated as agreement to receive text messages. Text messages are only ever sent to a person who has confirmed their own opt-in on a Formula A opt-in page. Formula A's optional text-message program is not yet active — today, practice plans are shared from the coach's own device.

Mobile phone numbers and SMS opt-in or consent information are not sold, rented, or shared with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

• Text messages from Formula A are transactional coaching communications, such as practice-plan links, schedules, and coaching-team collaboration updates.
• Message frequency varies based on coaching activity.
• Message and data rates may apply.
• Reply STOP at any time to stop receiving messages.
• Reply HELP for help, or use the support contact listed below.
• Consent is optional and is not required to use Formula A.

We keep a record of each opt-in, including when it happened, how it was given, and the exact disclosure wording shown at the time, so a recipient's choice is verifiable. Opting out is recorded the same way.

We use a small number of service providers to run Formula A, including hosting, database, and communications providers. They may process information only to provide services to Formula A, under contract, and may not use it for their own purposes. We do not sell personal information, and we do not share mobile numbers or SMS consent information with third parties or affiliates for their own marketing or promotional purposes.

Information may also be disclosed where required by law, or to protect the rights, safety, and security of Formula A and its users.

A coach may create a read-only link to a practice plan. That link shows the practice content only. It does not include account details, coaching staff contact details, or any mobile number, and it stops working after it expires or is turned off by the coach.

Access to coaching content is restricted to the account that owns it, enforced at the database level. Opt-in links use single-use cryptographically random codes, and only a one-way hash of each code is stored. Data is retained while an account is active and for as long as needed to operate the service, resolve issues, and meet legal obligations. Consent records are retained as proof of a recipient's choice.

No system can promise perfect security, and we do not claim to. We work to protect information using reasonable, current practices.

• Review, correct, or remove coaching staff contact details at any time in the team profile.
• Stop text messages at any time by replying STOP or by asking the coach who invited you.
• Request access to, correction of, or deletion of your information using the support contact below.

We may update this policy as Formula A develops. The effective date at the top of this page shows when it last changed.
