FixturePoint privacy policy

Last updated: 6 November 2026

FixturePoint is an app for organising a five-a-side (or any format) football group: who is playing each week, the teams, the scores and who has paid. It is made by NoPointApps ("we", "us"). This policy explains what the app stores, who can see it, and what we do with it.

Groups: who can see what

Every group has an organiser who sets it up. Other players join with a group code or a private link. Information you add to a group is visible to that group:

• Everyone in your group can see player names, who is in, out or on the reserve list, team sheets, match results, goals, and profile photos once they are approved.
• Your organiser can also see and edit payment records (who has paid and account balances), join requests, and can remove players.

What we collect

• Your account: your email address and password. Your password is stored only in scrambled form (a one-way hash) and we never see it.
• Your player details in a group: the name you are known by, an optional profile photo, and an optional nationality flag.
• Your football activity: weekly availability (in, out, reserve, holiday dates), team assignments, match results and goals, who has the ball or bibs, and ratings worked out from results.
• Payment records: the amount each player owes or has in credit, and a history of payments the organiser has marked. See "Payments" below.
• Notification details: if you switch on notifications, a device token so your phone can receive them. You can switch them off at any time in your phone's settings.
• A simple usage log: which screen was opened and when, and for some screens your player name, whether you used the app or the web version, and the app version. Only the developer can see this. It is used to fix bugs and to see whether people are on an old version.
• Your bio and settings: an optional short bio, which your group can see, and your app settings (such as theme and voting preferences), saved with your account so they follow you to a new phone.

Profile photos

If you add a photo, your phone's photo picker opens and only the photo you choose is used. It is cropped to a small square thumbnail (160 pixels) on your phone before it is sent, then stored on NoPointApps' own server, so it is only visible to signed-in members of your group. We do not use any outside photo-hosting service. A new or changed photo is held for your organiser to approve before the rest of the group sees it. You can remove your photo at any time from your Profile tab, which deletes it.

Keeping your data safe

• Everything travels between the app and our server over encrypted connections (HTTPS).
• Your group's data, including photos, is only shown to signed-in members of that group. Someone joining sees just the player names and photos, and only with the group's join code.
• Passwords are stored only as a one-way scrambled hash, never as typed.
• The server's disks are encrypted, and our nightly backups are encrypted before they are stored.

Payments

FixturePoint keeps a record of who has paid so your organiser can keep track. It does not collect or process game payments and never sees your card or bank details. The organiser may add their own bank details or a payment link for players to use. If you tap a card payment link you are taken to that third party's website, which has its own privacy policy.

Organiser subscription and tip

Players use FixturePoint for free. Creating and running a group needs an organiser subscription (7-day free trial, then £7.99 a month, renewing until cancelled). There is also an optional 99p tip that unlocks nothing. These are bought through the App Store or Google Play, which take the payment and handle your card details; we never see them. We only learn whether your subscription is active. You can cancel at any time in your Apple ID or Google Play subscription settings. If it lapses you become a player in your group until you subscribe again; nothing is deleted. Apple's standard Terms of Use apply on iPhone: apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula.

Apple Watch

If you use the optional Apple Watch app to log goals, the goals and scorers you enter are saved to your group's records in the same way as if you had entered them on your phone. If you allow it, the watch app also records each game as a Football workout in Apple Health and shows your heart rate on the scoreboard. That workout and heart rate stay in Apple Health on your devices: FixturePoint never sends them to its server or anyone else, and you can switch this off in the watch app's Settings or in the Health app. The watch app does not collect anything else.

Who we share data with

We only use these services to run the app, and we do not sell or rent your data to anyone:

• Oracle Cloud (hosting): the app's data, including profile photos and sign-ins, is stored on NoPointApps' own server, which runs in Oracle's London data centre in the UK.
• Resend (email): sends password reset emails. It receives only your email address and the message.
• Apple and Google notification services: deliver notifications to your phone if you switch them on.

The developer, as the operator of the database the app runs on, has technical access to the stored data. That access is used only to keep the service running, fix problems and answer support requests.

What we do not do

• No adverts.
• No analytics, tracking or advertising tools.
• No selling or sharing your data for marketing.
• No access to your location, contacts or microphone.

Keeping and deleting your data

We keep your information while your account and group exist. Match results and ratings are part of your group's history. To have your account and the personal details we hold about you deleted or anonymised, email us (below) and we will do it. Your organiser can also remove you from a group.

Backups

Our server keeps an encrypted nightly backup for 14 days. Since 7 October 2026 an encrypted copy also goes each night to private Oracle Cloud storage in London (UK), where it is deleted automatically after 30 days. Only the developer can get to these backups, and they are used only to put things back after a problem. When your account or data is deleted, it is removed from the app straight away, but it can stay in these encrypted backups until they expire, up to 30 days. It is never put back into the app, except to recover from a failure.

Children

FixturePoint is not aimed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you think a child under 13 has signed up, contact us and we will delete it.

Your rights

Under UK GDPR and similar laws you can ask to see, correct or delete the information we hold about you, or object to how it is used. Email us and we will reply within 30 days.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes we will update this page and the date at the top.
