Who we share it with

We don't sell your personal data and we don't currently share it with marketing partners. We use these service providers to run the site, and they only process data on our behalf or to provide the sign-in you choose:

  • Base44 — Hosting, database, sign-in, file storage, email delivery and usage statistics.
  • Valve (Steam) — Steam sign-in and public Steam profile information.
  • Google — Sign in with Google, if you choose it.
  • Meta (Facebook) — Sign in with Facebook, if you choose it.

Some of these providers may process data outside the EU/EEA. Where that happens, the transfer is covered by safeguards such as the EU Standard Contractual Clauses.

We may also disclose data if we're required to by law.

How long we keep it

  • Account, Steam membership and preferences — until you ask us to delete your account.
  • Newsletter — until you unsubscribe or withdraw consent.
  • Giveaway entries — until the giveaway is finished and prizes are delivered, and no longer than 12 months after it ends.
  • Emails to us — as long as needed to handle your request.
  • Signed-in sessions — Baseline Court sessions expire after 30 days.
05

Under the GDPR you have the right to:

  • Access — get a copy of the personal data we hold about you.

  • Restriction and objection — limit or object to how we use your data, including for marketing.
  • Portability — receive your data in a machine-readable format.
  • Withdraw consent — at any time, for anything based on consent, such as the newsletter.

To use any of these rights, email info@baselinebasketballmanager.com. We'll respond within one month. If you're unhappy with how we handle your data, you can complain to the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection (Integritetsskyddsmyndigheten, imy.se) or your local data protection authority.
