[ 01 ]ABOUT THIS POLICY
This Privacy Policy explains how Cyril Paul Guirguis, operating as What's Your Pick? ("we," "us," "our") collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you use the What's Your Pick? mobile application ("WYP," the "App").
By creating an account or using WYP, you agree to the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the App.
We've written this in plain language. If anything is unclear, contact us at whatsyourpickapp@gmail.com.
[ 02 ]WHO WE ARE
WYP is a free social prediction game for the 2026 international soccer tournament. The App lets users make predictions about matches, compete in private groups with friends, and view leaderboards. There is no real-money gambling, no betting, no in-app purchases, and no advertising.
The data controller for the purposes of GDPR and equivalent laws is:

[ 03 ]INFORMATION WE COLLECT
We collect only the information necessary to operate WYP. We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties.
3.1 INFORMATION YOU PROVIDE
- Account information: When you sign in with Apple, Google, or email, we collect your email address. If signing in with Apple or Google, we may also receive your name (you can edit this in the App).
- Profile information: Your display name and optional profile photo.
- User-generated content: Predictions you make on matches, groups you create or join, and any text you enter (group names, etc.).
3.2 INFORMATION WE RECEIVE AUTOMATICALLY
- Account identifier: A unique user ID assigned by our backend (Supabase) when you sign in.
- Authentication tokens: Cryptographic tokens issued by Apple, Google, or our backend used to keep you signed in securely. These are stored on your device and never shared with third parties.
- Technical logs: Standard server logs (IP address, timestamp, request type) generated by our backend infrastructure for security, debugging, and abuse prevention. These logs are retained for up to 30 days unless required longer for legal or security reasons.
3.3 INFORMATION WE DO NOT COLLECT
To be explicit, WYP does not collect:
- Your precise location
- Your contacts
- Your photos or media (except a profile photo you voluntarily upload)
- Your microphone or camera data
- Your browsing or app usage outside of WYP
- Advertising identifiers (IDFA, AAID)
- Health, financial, or payment data
- Biometric data
We do not use any third-party analytics, advertising SDKs, or tracking tools. We do not engage in cross-app or cross-website tracking.
[ 04 ]HOW WE USE YOUR INFORMATION
We use the information we collect only for these purposes:
| PURPOSE | EXAMPLES |
|---|---|
| Provide the service | Display your predictions, calculate scores, show leaderboards, sync data across your devices |
| Authenticate you | Verify your identity at sign-in, keep you signed in securely |
| Communicate with you | Send transactional notifications (e.g., "Your match locks in 10 minutes") and support responses |
| Maintain security | Detect abuse, prevent fraud, debug issues, comply with legal obligations |
| Comply with the law | Respond to lawful requests from regulators or courts |
Our legal basis for processing (under GDPR) is performance of a contract with you (we cannot provide the App without processing your account data) and our legitimate interests in operating a secure service.

5.4 BUSINESS TRANSFERS

[ 06 ]WHERE YOUR DATA IS STORED
Your data is stored on servers operated by Supabase, located in the United States (AWS region us-east-1).

CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS (CCPA / CPRA)
If you are a California resident, you have specific rights including the right to know, the right to delete, the right to correct, and the right to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information.

[ 09 ]ACCOUNT DELETION
You can permanently delete your account at any time:

This action immediately removes your profile, predictions, and group memberships from our active database. The deletion is permanent and cannot be undone.
You can also request deletion by emailing whatsyourpickapp@gmail.com — we will action it within 30 days.
[ 10 ]CHILDREN'S PRIVACY
WYP is rated 12+ and is not intended for children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child under 13 has provided us with personal information, please contact us at cpguirguis@gmail.com and we will delete it promptly.
If you are between 13 and the age of majority in your country, please use the App only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.
[ 11 ]DATA SECURITY
We use industry-standard security measures to protect your data:
- All connections between the App and our backend are encrypted using HTTPS / TLS 1.2 or higher
- Passwords (where applicable) are never stored in plaintext; we use Supabase's bcrypt-based hashing
- Database access is restricted by row-level security policies that ensure users can only read their own data and data they're explicitly permitted to see
- Authentication tokens are stored securely on your device's keychain (iOS) or keystore (Android)
- We regularly review our security practices and dependencies
No system is completely secure, however. If we become aware of a data breach affecting your personal information, we will notify you and applicable regulators as required by law.
[ 12 ]INTERNATIONAL USERS
WYP is operated from Canada. If you access the App from outside Canada, you understand that your data may be processed in a country with different data protection laws than your own. We take steps (including Standard Contractual Clauses where required) to ensure your data receives an adequate level of protection wherever it is processed.
[ 13 ]CHANGES TO THIS POLICY
We may update this policy from time to time. When we do:
- We will update the "Last Updated" date at the top
- For material changes, we will notify you in the App and/or by email at least 14 days before the changes take effect
- Continued use of the App after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated policy
The current version of this policy is always available at whatsyourpick.app/privacypolicy and within the App under Settings → Privacy & Terms.
