What Rundown Is
Rundown is a softball and baseball training app with three parts: players work through game situations in the IQ Game, Swing Lab gives feedback from a side-view swing filmed on the player's own device, and Coaches Corner helps a coach plan and run practice. The app is built so we know as little about your kid as possible.
What a Team Roster Holds
- First name and, if the coach adds it, one last initial. No full surname.
- Jersey number and fielding position, if supplied.
- Confirmation that the player is 13 or older, entered by the coach. We do not collect a birth date. Under-13 roster access is closed.
- Quiz answers, scores, sport, position, and round times, linked to the roster profile by an internal random identifier. The coach can see those practice results.
Signed-In Player Accounts
A roster profile and a signed-in account are different. Creating a Player account uses an email address. We keep a random account identifier, sign-in records, and any App Store purchase and access records. New accounts also keep an eligibility declaration, notice version, and declaration time. Joining a team links that account to the player's roster profile. The account section of our Privacy Policy explains what we keep and why.
A parent or guardian managing an account uses their own email address. This does not open under-13 roster access or record verified parental consent.
What Roster Forms Do Not Ask For
- Full last name, home address, email address, or phone number
- Date of birth
- Photos, videos, or voice recordings
- Location
- Biometric data
- Advertising IDs or cross-site tracking cookies
There are no ads in Rundown, and we never sell data. Not player data, not anyone's.
What About Swing Lab? It Uses the Camera.
Swing Lab lets your kid film a swing and get checkpoint feedback. Here is what happens to the video:
- The video is analyzed entirely on your own device, in the browser. It is never uploaded. We never receive it, never store it, and cannot see it.
- The body-position estimates the analysis creates are discarded when it finishes. They never leave the device either.
- The only thing kept is a short results summary (things like "head position: on track"), saved in your browser's local storage on your device so your kid can see their trend. Clearing browser data deletes it. We do not receive it.
The Website's Free Practice Leaderboard
The free practice game on the website has a public high-score list. The name box above it is optional. The iPhone app keeps its free-practice name and scores on the device and does not post them to this list. Signed-in team practice can save results to the coach's roster.
- Leave the box blank and the score posts as "Guest". The game plays the same either way.
- If a name is typed, we keep the first word only, up to 12 characters. Anything after the first space is dropped before the score is sent, so a last name cannot reach us even if one is typed.
- No account, email address, or device identifier is attached to it.
- To have an entry taken down, email support@rundownsports.app with the name shown and the rough date.
How Long We Keep It
We do not keep a kid's information indefinitely. In plain terms:
- A player's roster records are deleted 12 months after their last activity, whether or not anyone asks.
- If a whole team goes quiet, its player records are deleted after 13 months.
- Leaderboard entries are deleted 12 months after they are posted.
A signed-in account is kept while it is open. You can request deletion in the signed-in app or contact us. You never have to wait for the dates above. The full schedule, including account and payment records, is section 12 of the Privacy Policy.
Players Under 13
The account screen asks for age before showing email or password fields. An answer below 13 closes account entry and leaves the free sample available. The exact age is not saved or sent to Rundown. A refusal flag stays on the device so reloading does not reopen account entry. It contains no age or email. Accepted declarations are not verified age or parental consent.
Under-13 roster access is not open yet. Rundown will not activate an under-13 player until the parent-consent flow is complete. A parent or coach can still use the free sample with a child, and Swing Lab can run on the family's device without creating a player account or uploading the video.
How to See or Delete Your Kid's Data
Email privacy@rundownsports.app and ask. You can:
- Review what we have, including roster details, recorded practice results, and any signed-in account information
- Delete it entirely
- Refuse any further collection
We verify the request and respond within 30 days, usually much faster.
