Privacy Policy

Overview

Local Legend ("Local Legend," "we," "us") is a pickup basketball app that helps you find nearby courts and runs, connect with other players, and build a reputation through community ratings. We collect only the information we need to run the app and keep it fair and safe. We do not sell your personal information.

Information We Collect

We collect the following information when you create an account and use the app:

• Phone number — used to create and secure your account through a one-time passcode (OTP) sent by text message.
• Full name — shown on your profile and to players you connect with.
• Username — your public handle in the app.
• Profile photo (optional) — if you choose to add one.
• Location (when you permit it) — used to find nearby courts and runs. You can grant or revoke location access at any time in your device settings.
• Camera and photo library (optional) — accessed only if you choose to upload or take a profile picture.
• Ratings and run history — the runs you join and the ratings you give and receive, which power reputation and Court of the Week.
• Push notification tokens — used to deliver notifications about runs, ratings, and updates.
• Device fingerprint — a technical identifier used to prevent abuse, spam, and fake accounts.

Information We Do Not Collect

• Payment information — there are no paid features yet, so we do not collect or process payment data.
• Email address — unless you choose to add one to your account.
• Your contacts — we never access or upload your address book.
• Microphone audio — we do not access your microphone.
• Health or fitness data — we do not collect any health data.

How We Use Your Information

We use the information above to: verify your identity and secure your account; show you nearby courts and runs; let you connect with and rate other players; build community reputation and Court of the Week; deliver notifications you've opted into; and detect and prevent abuse, spam, and fake accounts.

SMS / Text Messaging Terms

Local Legend uses SMS text messaging solely to send one-time passcodes (OTP) for account verification and sign-in. We do not send marketing or promotional SMS.

• Opt-in: By entering your mobile phone number in the app and tapping "Send Code", you consent to receive a one-time verification passcode via SMS. The app displays the notice "We'll text you a 6-digit code. Standard rates apply." before you submit your number.
• Message content: A typical message reads: "Your Local Legend code is 123456. This code expires in 5 minutes. Reply STOP to unsubscribe."
• Message frequency: You will receive an SMS only when you actively request a verification code (typically 1-2 messages per sign-in attempt). We do not send unsolicited or scheduled messages.
• Costs: Message and data rates may apply according to your mobile carrier plan. Local Legend does not charge for these messages.
• Opt-out: Reply STOP to any verification message to unsubscribe from all Local Legend SMS. Note that opting out will prevent you from signing in via SMS OTP; contact support@locallegendhoops.com if you need assistance accessing your account.
• Help: Reply HELP for assistance, or contact support@locallegendhoops.com.
• Supported carriers: Messaging is supported on all major US carriers including AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and their MVNOs. Carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
• Phone number sharing: Mobile phone numbers and consent to receive SMS are not shared with any third parties or affiliates for marketing purposes. Phone numbers are shared only with our SMS delivery provider (Twilio) solely for the purpose of delivering the verification code you requested.

Third Parties We Work With

We use a small set of trusted service providers to operate the app. They process data only on our behalf and under their own privacy and security obligations:

• Supabase — secure data storage and backend (hosted in the United States).
• Twilio — delivery of SMS verification codes. Twilio processes your phone number solely to route the one-time passcode you requested.
• Expo — delivery of push notifications.
• Sentry — crash and error reporting to help us fix bugs.
• PostHog — product analytics to understand how the app is used.

We do not sell your personal information to anyone, and we do not share it for cross-app advertising.

Children's Privacy

Local Legend is rated 17+ because it contains user-generated content and social features. The app is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. We comply with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). If we learn that we have collected information from a child under 13, we will delete it. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us information, contact support@locallegendhoops.com.

• Delete your account — you can delete your account at any time from Settings in the app, or by emailing us.
• Export your data — you can request a copy of your data by emailing support@locallegendhoops.com.
• Manage permissions — you control location, camera, photo, and notification access from your device settings at any time.

Data Retention

We keep information for active accounts for as long as the account remains active. When you delete your account — or request deletion — we remove your personal information within 30 days, except where we are required to retain limited records to comply with legal obligations or to prevent abuse.
