Data collection

The developer does not receive or store your identity, contact details, scoring data or app usage. The app does not create an account, advertising profile or analytics record.

On-device operation

Toss results, teams, scores, settings and match history are produced and stored locally on your iPhone. You can remove scoring records in the app, or remove all local information by deleting the app.

Optional Match Weather

If you open Match Weather and allow location access, your current coordinates are sent to Open-Meteo to return the requested forecast. Bat or Bowl does not save this location or weather history. The app does not use Apple Weather or WeatherKit.

Open-Meteo retention

Open-Meteo states that its free service may keep server logs containing IP addresses and geographic coordinates for troubleshooting, and deletes those logs after 90 days. It states that it does not link this information to user identities or share it with third parties.

Your choices

Match Weather is optional. You can deny or withdraw location access at any time in iPhone Settings under Privacy & Security, Location Services, Bat or Bowl. The toss and all scoring features remain available without location access.
