Privacy policy

Applies to the ScoreX Android app (com.scorex.mini). Last updated 3 August 2026.

ScoreX does not collect your personal data, does not have user accounts, contains no analytics or advertising, and has no server of ours to send anything to. It talks only to ScoreX scoreboard hardware on the same local network as your device.

What the app talks to

ScoreX is a courtside scoring controller. It connects directly to a ScoreX Gateway — the scoreboard's own controller — over your local Wi-Fi, or over the Wi-Fi network the scoreboard itself provides. That connection is the entire network activity of the app.

A court can be scored with no internet connection at all. There is no ScoreX cloud service, no account to create, and no login to us; the only sign-in the app offers is to the scoreboard in front of you, and those credentials are held by whoever owns that scoreboard.

What the app stores, and where

Everything below is stored only in the app's own private storage on your device. None of it is transmitted to us, because there is nowhere for it to be transmitted to. Uninstalling the app deletes all of it.

• Courts you have used — for each one: the scoreboard's hardware identifier, the name that scoreboard reports for itself, the network address it was last reached at, the name of the Wi-Fi network it was reached on, and when it was last seen. This is a convenience cache so a court reconnects quickly; deleting a court from the app, or clearing the app's storage, removes it.
• A random identifier generated on your device, used so a scoreboard can tell that a device reconnecting after a dropout is the same device that was already scoring, rather than a second person trying to take over the match. It is generated by the app itself, is not derived from any hardware identifier, is never sent anywhere except to the scoreboard you are connected to, and is discarded when the app is uninstalled.
• Scoreboard settings you change — these belong to the scoreboard and are stored on it, not by us.

The app does not read your contacts, photos, files, calendar, microphone, camera or location. It has no advertising identifier, no crash-reporting service and no analytics SDK of any kind, and its Android backup is switched off, so this data is not copied off the device by the operating system either.

Permissions, and why each one exists

• INTERNET and ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE — to open the local network connection to the scoreboard, and to notice when it drops.
• ACCESS_WIFI_STATE and CHANGE_WIFI_MULTICAST_STATE — to find scoreboards on the local network by name, and to remember which network a court was found on so it is not looked for on the wrong one.
• CHANGE_NETWORK_STATE — to offer to join the scoreboard's own Wi-Fi network when there is no shared network to meet on. Android asks you before any such join.

The app deliberately does not request any location permission. On Android, reading the current Wi-Fi network's name requires one; ScoreX would rather do without the network name than ask for your location for a convenience feature.

Children

ScoreX is a tool for running matches on ScoreX scoreboard hardware and is intended for adults operating that equipment. It is not directed to children and collects nothing from anyone.

Changes

If a future version of the app gains a feature that sends data anywhere other than the scoreboard on your local network, this page will be updated before that version is published, and the date at the top will change.

This page is on the internet; the court is not. Scoring happens directly between your device and the scoreboard over the local network.
