Ball Street Exchange/Privacy
Last updated September 22, 2026
Ball Street Exchange ("BSX," "we," "us," or "our") operates a virtual-currency market simulation where users trade synthetic shares of professional athletes. This Privacy Policy describes how we collect, use, disclose, retain, and delete personal information in connection with:
BSX is not a fantasy contest, sportsbook, prediction market, or real-money brokerage. Phase 1 uses virtual "BSX Dollars" only. This policy is written to satisfy Apple App Store and Google Play requirements for a publicly accessible privacy policy URL, including clear disclosure of data collected, purposes, sharing, retention/deletion, and how to contact us or request account deletion.

Apple requires every App Store app to link a privacy policy that identifies what data is collected, how it is collected, how it is used, with whom it is shared (including third-party SDKs), retention/deletion practices, and how users can revoke consent or request deletion. Google Play requires a privacy policy that discloses how the app accesses, collects, uses, shares, and protects user and device data; an accurate Data safety declaration; and — when accounts can be created — a pathway to request account and associated data deletion (including a web-accessible request method).
App Store Connect "privacy labels" and Google Play "Data safety" answers must remain consistent with this policy. If our practices change, we will update this page and our store declarations.
Depending on how you use BSX, we may collect the categories below.
These records are required to operate the exchange simulation. They are not real-money bank or brokerage accounts. We do not collect payment card numbers, bank account details, or government ID for Phase 1.
If you use in-app share cards (for example trade or portfolio claims), the app may generate an image or text that includes your roster name, portfolio stats, or trade details. Sharing uses the device share sheet (or a download on web). We do not operate a social network feed inside the app; what you share outside BSX is subject to that destination's policies.
The app displays athlete, team, game, news, and price data from our sports information and market planes. That information is about public sports markets and instruments — not about you — and is described here only for clarity.
The public website is a download call-to-action for the mobile app. It does not operate an email waitlist form. Standard web server or hosting logs may still be produced when you visit the site. Historical waitlist records (if any) collected under a prior email-capture version may remain in our database until deleted under Section 7.
We use personal information to:
We do not sell personal information. We do not use personal information to run third-party advertising networks inside the app today. If that changes, we will update this policy and store disclosures before doing so.
We share personal information only as needed to run BSX, and with providers that process data on our behalf under contractual obligations. Current categories:
Sports data vendors (for example Balldontlie and public sports sources) supply athlete/game information to our information plane; they are not used as a channel to sell your personal account data.
We retain account, portfolio, order, fill, and ledger data for as long as your account remains active and as needed to operate the simulation, resolve disputes, debug systems, and meet legal obligations. Feedback and logs may be retained for a reasonable period for product and security purposes, then deleted or aggregated.
You may update certain profile fields in-app where the product allows. You may sign out at any time, which ends the active session on that device. Because account creation uses OAuth, you can also revoke BSX access from your Google (or Apple) account permissions settings.
To request deletion of your Ball Street Exchange account and associated personal data, email aaron@ballstreet.exchange from the address associated with your account (or include enough detail for us to locate it). We will verify the request and delete or de-identify personal account data, subject to limited retention needed for security, fraud prevention, legal compliance, or anonymized market integrity records (for example historical fills that no longer identify you).
This email pathway is our web-accessible deletion request method for Google Play account-deletion requirements. Signed-in users can also delete from the mobile app: Menu → Delete account, which calls the same deletion process.
We use industry-standard safeguards appropriate to a cloud-hosted consumer app, including encrypted transport (HTTPS/TLS), provider-managed database security, authentication via OAuth, and row-level access controls so users cannot write another trader's portfolio. No method of transmission or storage is 100% secure; we encourage you to protect your identity-provider account and device.
Client apps use a public anon API key scoped by security policies — never a service-role secret.
Ball Street Exchange is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us personal information, contact us and we will take appropriate steps to delete it.
We and our processors may process information in the United States and other countries where our service providers operate. If you access BSX from another region, your information may be transferred to those locations.
As of the date above, the mobile app's core flows do not require:
If a future feature needs a sensitive permission, we will request it in context, disclose the purpose, and update this policy and store forms before shipping.
The app may show news headlines or links to third-party sites. Those destinations have their own privacy practices. OAuth providers and share destinations likewise operate under their own terms.
We may update this Privacy Policy as the product, infrastructure, or legal requirements change. We will revise the "Last updated" date on this page. Material changes may also be highlighted in-app or on the website when appropriate. Continued use after an update means you acknowledge the revised policy.
