This Privacy Policy explains how World Cup 2026 Schedule (“the App,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) handles information when you use our Android mobile application and related website pages.
World Cup 2026 Schedule is an unofficial football schedule app. It provides offline fixtures, local match times, teams, groups, stadiums, favorites, reminders, and tournament-related schedule information.
1. Information We Do Not Require
World Cup 2026 Schedule is designed to work without an account. We do not require users to sign up, log in, or provide personal identity information to use the main features of the app.
The app does not require:
- Name
- Email address
- Phone number
- User account or password
- Location permission
- Payment information
- Contacts
- Calendar access
2. Information Stored Locally on Your Device
The app may store some information locally on your device so that the app can remember your preferences and provide a better experience.
Locally stored information may include:
- Favorite teams
- Favorite matches
- Match reminder settings
- Notification timing preferences
- Timezone preference
- Theme preference, such as light mode, dark mode, or system default
- Onboarding completion status
- App settings
This information is intended to remain on your device. It is used to make the app work properly and personalize your app experience.
3. Match Schedule and Offline Data
The app includes football match schedule information stored locally inside the app. This allows users to view fixtures, teams, groups, stadiums, host cities, and match times even without an internet connection.
The offline schedule data does not identify you personally.
4. Timezone and Local Match Time
World Cup 2026 Schedule shows match kickoff times based on your device timezone or the timezone you manually choose inside the app.
The app does not need your precise location to show local match times. It does not request GPS, background location, or live location tracking.
Timezone settings may be stored locally on your device so that the app can continue showing match times in your preferred timezone.
5. Notifications and Match Reminders
The app may request notification permission so it can send match reminders and schedule alerts. Notifications are optional.
Notifications may include:
- Today’s match summary
- Tomorrow’s match summary
- Favorite team match reminders
- Favorite match reminders
- Kickoff countdown alerts, such as 1 hour or 30 minutes before a match
These reminders are local app notifications based on the offline schedule and your selected settings. You can disable notifications in the app settings or your Android device settings.
6. Favorites and Preferences
If you favorite a team or match, that information is stored locally on your device to help the app highlight your selected teams and matches.
Favorites are not used to create an account, and they are not intended to be shared with us in v1.
7. Live Scores, Results, and Match Summaries
The current version of the app does not provide live scores, match results, live commentary, streaming, betting, ticketing, or official tournament services.
If future versions add online data features, this Privacy Policy may be updated to explain any new data processing, APIs, or third-party services.
8. Advertising
World Cup 2026 Schedule may show ads in the free version of the app.
If third-party advertising services such as Google AdMob are added, those services may collect or process information such as device identifiers, advertising identifiers, approximate location, app interactions, diagnostics, or other information according to their own privacy policies.
If ads are not enabled in your current app version, this section applies to future ad-supported versions. When advertising is enabled, the Google Play Data Safety form should be updated accordingly.
9. Analytics and Diagnostics
The app may use analytics or crash reporting tools in the future to help understand app performance, fix crashes, and improve reliability.
If analytics or diagnostics services are added, this Privacy Policy and the Google Play Data Safety form should be updated to reflect those services.
10. Third-Party Links
The app may include links to official schedule sources, privacy policy pages, terms pages, support pages, or other websites.
When you open an external website, that website may collect or process information according to its own privacy policy. We are not responsible for the privacy practices of third-party websites.
11. How We Use Information
Information stored by the app is used for app functionality, including:
- Showing match schedules
- Displaying match times in your selected timezone
- Saving favorite teams and matches
- Scheduling match reminders
- Remembering notification preferences
- Remembering theme settings
- Improving the user experience
- Providing support if you contact us
12. Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information.
In the current offline-first version, favorites, reminders, timezone settings, and preferences are intended to be stored locally on your device.
Information may be processed or shared only in limited situations, such as:
- If you choose to open an external source link or website
- If future versions include third-party ads, analytics, diagnostics, or APIs
- If required by law
- If needed to protect users, our rights, or the public
- If you contact us for support
13. Data Retention
Locally stored app data remains on your device until you delete it, clear the app’s storage, reset app settings, or uninstall the app.
Support emails or messages may be retained as long as needed to respond to your request and maintain support records.
14. Data Deletion
Since the app does not require an account in v1, most app data is stored locally on your device.
You can delete app data by:
- Removing favorite teams or matches inside the app
- Clearing reminder settings inside the app
- Clearing app data from Android system settings
- Uninstalling the app
If you contacted us by email and want to request deletion of support communication, contact us at: contact@mypetspal.org
15. Children’s Privacy
World Cup 2026 Schedule is intended for general audiences and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.
If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.
16. Security
We use reasonable safeguards to protect information. However, no method of storage or transmission is completely secure.
Because app preferences and reminders are stored on your device in v1, you are responsible for protecting access to your device.
17. International Users
If you use the app outside your country of residence, information may be processed in countries with different data protection laws.
18. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date.
You are encouraged to review this Privacy Policy periodically.
