Privacy on the pitch

This is not a maze of subclauses. It is a plain account of what Baskigol notices — and, more usefully, what it refuses to notice.

Ceiling, not a catalogue. Baskigol is a mood scanner, not a filing cabinet. Users do not pass personal data to one another. We do not collect a biography. The most identifying thing we may hold is a unique identifier used for tracking and push notifications.

The short version

The app turns public sports conversation into a readable report. It does not run a social network. There is no feed where strangers trade files, and no back-channel where the developer stockpiles private lives. If you came here expecting a novel-length policy because “that is how these pages look,” you can leave lighter: the design is to know less.

What actually leaves the device as content

When you request a mood report or continue in chat, you type a team name, a player name, or a follow-up question. That text is the payload. We do not ask for your legal name to run a scan. We do not harvest your address book, camera roll, or precise location in order to write a paragraph about a football club.

Onboarding is short on purpose. The home screen is a subject picker, not an interrogation.

OpenAI, as a third-party service

Report writing and chat replies are generated with OpenAI, a third-party service. The service receives the text of the message you entered — the sports subject and your question — and not a personal file. No identity packet rides along with the prompt. No private account history is stapled on as “context.” The model is hired to draft language about sport, not to learn who is holding the phone.

You send written words about teams, players, matches, and follow-up questions. You do not send a dossier. If you paste someone else’s private details into the chat, that is your doing; the product is not built to collect them.

The other benches: Firebase, Singular, OneSignal

A few specialist services sit on the sideline so the scanner can exist at all:

  • Firebase — infrastructure. The unglamorous plumbing that keeps the Android app running.
  • Singular — measurement. So we can tell which signals brought someone to the scanner, not so we can sketch a personality.
  • OneSignal — the courier for push notifications. A ping needs a destination; that destination is a device hook, not a biography.

Each of these is a third-party service. They may process a unique identifier and the technical crumbs required to do their jobs. They are not given a life story, because we do not keep one to give.

A locker number, not a name tag

A unique ID may be created so a notification can find the same device twice, and so we can see whether the scanner is alive. That is the ceiling: tracking and pushes. It is not a profile of who you are, who you support, or who you sit next to at the ground.

The list of absences

  • We do not sell personal information, because we do not stock a warehouse of it.
  • Users never transmit personal data to other users through Baskigol; there is no such pipe.
  • The developer does not collect personal data as a product feature. The scan is about the public mood around sport, not about you.
  • We do not need your contacts to compare two midfielders.

Children

Baskigol is not aimed at children. Do not use it if you are not old enough, in your country, to agree to a product like this.

When this page moves

If the plumbing of the scanner changes in a way that honestly affects privacy, we will change this page and the stamp at the top. The date is the honest part; treat a new date as a reason to reread, not as decoration.
