1. Introduction

Welcome to clutchwatch.

clutchwatch is a sports discovery platform designed to help fans discover live sporting events, understand why games matter, follow developing storylines, personalize their sports experience, and quickly find where to watch the events that interest them.

This Privacy Policy explains how CLUTCHWATCH, INC. ("clutchwatch," "we," "our," or "us") collects, uses, stores, and shares information when you use the clutchwatch mobile application, website, and related services (collectively, the "Services").

We believe privacy should be straightforward. This policy explains:

G. Installation Identifier

When you use the Services, the application stores a randomly generated installation identifier on your device. This identifier is used to maintain your live-feed session and basic app functionality.

H. Aggregate, Non-Personal Analytics

clutchwatch keeps an aggregate counter of how many times certain game or share pages are viewed, so we can understand which content is popular. This counter:

5. Sports Data and External Content

clutchwatch aggregates and presents sports-related information from a variety of sources, including licensed providers, official public APIs, publicly available sports information, and proprietary clutchwatch analysis.

When clutchwatch retrieves sports information from external providers, requests generally consist of anonymous sports-related queries such as:

These requests are not used to transmit your personal identity to sports data providers.

Our proprietary features—including personalized recommendations, watchability ratings, narratives, and other clutchwatch-generated insights—are produced using information from multiple sources combined with clutchwatch's own analysis.


6. How We Use Information

We use the information we collect to:

We use your email address only for account-related and transactional messages — such as sign-in, password reset, security notices, and important account or service updates. At launch, clutchwatch does not send marketing or promotional email.

We do not use your personal information to build advertising profiles for third-party advertisers.


7. How We Share Information

We do not sell your personal information.

We also do not share personal information with sports data providers for marketing or advertising purposes.

We may share information only in the following circumstances.

Service Providers

We use carefully selected service providers that help operate clutchwatch.

These providers may process information on our behalf solely to provide services requested by us. Our current service providers are:

Each provider receives only the limited information needed to perform its function — for example, your email address for transactional email, or your device push token for notification delivery. These providers are contractually required to protect the information they process for us, and they do not use your information for their own advertising or tracking purposes.

Identity Providers

If you choose to sign in using a third-party authentication provider, information necessary to complete authentication is exchanged between clutchwatch and that provider.

Those providers operate under their own privacy policies.

Legal Requirements

We may disclose information if we believe disclosure is necessary to:

Business Transfers

If clutchwatch is involved in a merger, acquisition, financing, asset sale, bankruptcy proceeding, or similar transaction, user information may be transferred as part of that transaction, subject to applicable law.


8. Data Security

We use administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information.
