We retain personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this Policy, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organisational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorised access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.
These measures may include secure storage, encrypted connections, access controls, and authentication safeguards. However, no method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

If you have an app account, you can also permanently delete it in the App under Profile → Account Security → Delete Account (or Profile → Delete Account). Password accounts must confirm with their password. Google sign-in accounts confirm by typing DELETE. Deleting your account removes your profile, sessions, community posts, and fantasy manager data. Order and ticket records may be retained in anonymised form for financial and operational records.
12. Children's Privacy
The Services are intended for users aged 13 and older. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 without appropriate parental consent.
We do not verify the age of individual users and rely on parents and legal guardians to supervise children's use of the Services. If you believe a child under 13 has provided personal information without appropriate consent, please contact us and we will take reasonable steps to delete that information.
13. International Data Transfers
Invertedapps operates from Eswatini, but some service providers may process information in other countries. Where information is transferred internationally, we take reasonable steps to ensure appropriate safeguards are in place, consistent with applicable law.
14. Push Notifications and Communications
With your permission, we may send push notifications about match updates, news, promotions, account activity, or other Service-related messages.
You can manage notification preferences through your device settings or, where available, within the App. Even if you disable promotional notifications, we may still send important service or security messages where necessary.
15. Account, Authentication, and Biometric Data
If you create an account or enable security features such as biometric login, we and our service providers may process authentication credentials, session tokens, and device security data needed to verify your identity and protect your account.
Biometric authentication, where supported, is generally handled by your device's operating system. We do not receive or store your raw biometric data.

Football-related information displayed in EFG, including fixtures, results, standings, statistics, and news, is provided for informational and entertainment purposes. Our privacy practices relate to user and account information handled by Invertedapps; they do not change the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of football data itself.

We may update this Policy from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Effective Date" at the top of this page and may provide additional notice through the App, email, or other reasonable means.
