Privacy Policy

01Overview

GameCoachAI ("GameCoachAI," "we," "us") is an AI coaching app for competitive gamers, built by independent developer Aaron Scott, who is also the data controller for the information described here. This policy explains what information the app collects, why, and who it's shared with. It applies to the GameCoachAI mobile app on iOS and Android and any associated web app.

We collect only what the coaching loop needs to work — an account, the gameplay you tell us about, and the analysis our AI produces from it. We do not show advertising, do not track you across other companies' apps or websites, and do not use third-party advertising or analytics SDKs. The one third-party SDK in the app is RevenueCat, which handles subscription purchases (see "How we share information").

02Information we collect

Account & identity

Gameplay content

AI-generated coaching data

From the content above, our AI produces and we store: identified mistakes and why they happen, practice recommendations, recurring-weakness trends, and progress metrics over time. This is the core output of the app and is tied to your account.

Purchases & subscription

If you subscribe to GameCoachAI Pro, Apple processes the payment — we never see your card or payment details. We, and our subscription provider RevenueCat, receive your subscription status, plan, purchase and renewal dates, and an app user ID (your GameCoachAI account ID). We also track how many AI analyses you've used in the current month to apply the free-plan limit.

Device, technical & notifications

If you allow notifications, we store a push token, your device platform, and a device name so we can deliver reminders. Notifications are sent through Expo's push notification service, which relays them to Apple's push service (APNs) or Google's (Firebase Cloud Messaging). Our service providers also receive standard technical data such as IP address and app version in their server logs. We do not collect precise location, contacts, or health data, and no advertising identifier is collected.

Feedback you send us

Bug reports, feature feedback, and thumbs up/down ratings on coaching results, along with the app version and platform you sent them from.

03How we use your information

• To run the core coaching loop: analyze what you log and return a specific mistake and practice recommendation.
• To track recurring weaknesses and measure improvement across sessions.
• To provide your subscription, apply plan limits, and let you restore or manage purchases.
• To maintain and secure your account, and to send transactional email (e.g. account confirmation and password reset).
• To send optional push notifications you've enabled.
• To respond to support requests and improve the app based on feedback and ratings you submit.

We do not use your data for advertising, and we do not sell it.

04How we share information

We use a small number of service providers to run GameCoachAI. Each only receives what it needs to perform its function:

05Data retention & deletion

We keep your account and gameplay history for as long as your account is active, since past sessions are what let the app measure improvement over time.

You can delete your data yourself, any time, in the app under Settings → Privacy & Data: Delete gameplay history removes your sessions, analyses, and tracked weaknesses while keeping your account, and Delete account permanently deletes your account and everything tied to it. Deleted data is removed from our database immediately; copies held in our infrastructure provider's backups are purged on its normal backup cycle, typically within 30 days. We may retain limited information where the law requires it.

Deleting your account does not cancel an active GameCoachAI Pro subscription. Subscriptions are managed by Apple; cancel yours in your Apple ID settings (or in the app under Settings → Manage Subscription) before or after deleting your account.

06Your rights & choices

You can access and download a copy of your data (Settings → Privacy & Data → Download my data) and delete it as described above. For anything else — corrections, questions, or a request you can't complete in the app — email ascott54454@gmail.com from the address on your account and we'll respond within 30 days.

If you're in the EEA, UK, or a US state with its own privacy law, you have these rights regardless of where you live, and you may also object to or restrict certain processing. If you're in the EEA or UK you can lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority. We do not sell or share personal information as those terms are defined under California law.

Legal bases (EEA & UK)

We process your information to perform our contract with you (providing your account, coaching, and subscription), for our legitimate interests in securing and improving the service, with your consent for optional push notifications (which you can withdraw in your device settings), and to comply with legal obligations.

07Children's privacy

GameCoachAI is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has created an account, contact us and we'll delete it.

08Security

Data is encrypted in transit (TLS) and at rest by our infrastructure provider. Access to your data is restricted by row-level security tied to your account — no other player can read your sessions, analyses, or profile. No system is perfectly secure, and we can't guarantee absolute security.

09Data location

Our infrastructure is hosted in the United States. If you access GameCoachAI from outside the US, your information will be transferred to and processed in the US, where our providers apply contractual safeguards for international transfers where required.

10Changes to this policy

If we make material changes, we'll update the effective date above and, for significant changes, notify you in the app.
