The MatchCenter application ("us", "we", "our app") values your privacy. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, and protect your information when using our application.

1. Collection of Information

Our app is designed to display live scores, statistics, schedules, and live streaming links. We DO NOT collect sensitive personal data (such as your full name, physical address, or phone number) directly on our servers.

2. Cached & Favorite Data (Local Storage)

Favorite team or match data that you save in the application is stored entirely in your device's local storage (localStorage / internal database). We do not have access to this data and do not send it to any external servers. You can delete this data by clearing your application cache.

3. Third-Party Services

To improve service performance, deliver real-time notifications, and fund the app's sustainability, we use third-party services that may collect your device's identification information:

  • Google Play Services: For basic app operations on the Android platform.
  • Google AdMob: To display sponsored ads. AdMob may use your device's advertising ID to personalize relevant ads.
  • Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) & Remote Config: To send instant goal notifications or important updates and to test new configurations.

4. Device Permissions

Our application requires several basic permissions to run optimally:

  • Internet / Network State: Required to fetch real-time live score updates and load live match streaming.
  • Notifications: Required to send notifications for goals, red cards, and kick-offs of your selected matches.

5. Security

The security of your information is our priority. We use industry-standard encryption technology when transmitting data from our APIs. However, since preference data is stored locally on your device, the physical and digital security of the device is under your own control.

6. Data Retention

Your favorite club preferences and search data will remain stored in your device's local memory as long as the application is installed or until you clear your browser/app cache data.

7. Data Deletion

You have full control to delete your preference data at any time:

  • Manual Cleaning: You can delete bookmarks or favorite teams directly through the menus in the application.
  • Clearing Cache / Uninstalling: Clearing app data through device system settings or uninstalling the app permanently will automatically remove all locally stored data.
  • Support Contact: If you have questions about how to delete your data, please contact us at support@matchcenter.com.

8. Changes to this Privacy Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time as we add new application features. We recommend you review this page periodically.
