Playing Time & Sub Rotation: Privacy Policy

Effective 27 September 2026. This policy covers the Android app Playing Time & Sub Rotation (package com.digitalshijil.playingtime), published by DIGITAL SHIJIL LLC. Questions: contact@digitalshijil.com. This policy is published at https://apps.digitalshijil.com/playing-time/privacy/.

In short

• The app is a tool for the coach. It has no account, no sign-in, no server and no team sync.
• No advertising, no analytics and no tracking code.
• What the coach types stays on the phone. The only thing that leaves it is what Google Play's own billing library sends to Google, described below, and anything the coach chooses to share.

What the app keeps on the phone, and what it deliberately does not

Stored only in the app's private storage:

• Team names and each team's sport and format.
• For each player: a first name or nickname, a shirt number, preferred positions, whether they keep goal, and an "out today" mark.
• Each game: who was available, the substitution plan, when each player went on and off, the game clock, and any goals, assists or notes the coach taps in.
• Settings such as sunlight mode and the vibration setting.

The app deliberately has no place for a player's photo, date of birth, surname, school, address, or a parent's name, phone number or email. Players are typically children; the app is designed so that the least possible information about them is ever typed in.

The publisher never receives any of this data and cannot see, recover or delete it.

Permissions

The app asks for one permission of its own: vibration (android.permission.VIBRATE), for a short buzz when a planned substitution is due. It involves no data. The Google Play Billing library adds four entries to the installed app: com.android.vending.BILLING, android.permission.INTERNET, android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, and a signature-level permission that protects the app's own internal broadcasts. The app's own code makes no network requests. There is no camera, microphone, location, contacts or storage permission.

Purchases (Google Play)

Pro is sold by Google Play as a monthly or yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Google processes your payment; the app never sees your card or payment details. The app asks Google Play only whether your account owns Pro, so that Pro comes back on a new phone. If a subscription ends, nothing you recorded is deleted.

The Google Play Billing library sends diagnostic information about the billing connection to Google. In the Play Console Data safety form this is declared as: App info and performance > Diagnostics: collected, not shared, required. Google uses it to run and troubleshoot purchases. The publisher does not receive it and it is not used for advertising.

Backups

If Android backup is on for your Google account, Android may include the app's teams, games and settings in your own device backup, so they can move to a new phone. That backup is held by Google under your account and governed by Google's privacy policy; the publisher has no access to it. The cached Pro status is never backed up.

Sharing and exports

Nothing is shared unless the coach shares it. A minutes summary (text or PDF), a roster file for an assistant coach, or the "Export all my data" file is created on the phone and handed to the app or place the coach picks. What happens next is governed by that app or service.

Deleting your data

Settings > Delete all data erases every team, player, game and setting and returns the app to a fresh install. Uninstalling the app also removes everything it stored. A Pro purchase is not affected: it belongs to your Google account and is restored by Google Play.

Children

The app is for adult coaches and is not directed at children. It does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, child or adult: player names and numbers are typed by the coach and never leave the coach's phone unless the coach shares them.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be published at https://apps.digitalshijil.com/playing-time/privacy/ with a new effective date, and material changes will be noted in the release notes.
