- The club controls the data; RinkNotes processes it on the club’s behalf under a data processing agreement accepted at setup.
- No capture without consent. A player’s information isn’t captured or kept until consent is granted — by a parent on a youth team, or by the player on an adult team — and it’s blocked the moment consent is withdrawn.
- Real controls for whoever consents — a parent, or an adult player — can correct, export, and withdraw at any time. See the Parents section.
- Minimal data, minor-aware. Only a birth year is ever stored, never a full date of birth. On a youth team the player never logs in — a parent holds the account; on an adult team the player holds their own.
- Isolation between people. Parent volunteers can capture but never see any player’s outputs, and each person sees only their own player — one family, or player, can’t read another’s.
What a parent can do
Because these come up when parents ask, it helps to know the controls they have:- Correct anything that looks wrong (it’s flagged for coaching staff to review).
- Export a complete copy of everything held about their child, at any time.
- Withdraw consent — capture stops immediately and their page clears.
