Privacy Policy
Last updated 8 October 2026
Matchday turns the teams you follow into a calendar that keeps itself up to date. This page explains exactly what we collect to do that, and what we do not.
Matchday is operated by Péter Fehér, a sole proprietor in British Columbia, Canada ("we", "us"). For anything on this page, contact support@matchdayfeed.com.
What we collect
| Data | Why |
|---|---|
| Your email address, if you provide one | It identifies your account so you can restore your calendars on another device, and it is where the sign-in link is sent. Addresses are normalised for matching (a +tag is stripped, and Gmail addresses have dots removed), so one inbox is one account. |
| Your selections: the competitions and teams you follow, your calendar's name, reminder setting and language | This is the calendar itself. Without it there is no calendar. |
| Calendar link tokens | The random identifier in your calendar link, which is how your calendar app fetches your calendar without signing in. |
| When a calendar app first and most recently fetched your calendar | To show you that your calendar is connected, and to email you once if it never connects. Only the date and time are kept, not which app or device. |
| Subscription state: your plan, free-trial dates, and a Stripe customer identifier | To know what your plan covers and when a trial ends. |
| Short-lived sign-in tokens and email send counters | To keep you signed in and to stop the sign-in email being used to flood an inbox. These expire automatically. |
We never receive your card details. Payments are handled entirely by Stripe; card numbers are entered on Stripe's systems and never reach ours.
What we do not do
- No cookies. Matchday sets none. Your list of calendars and your preferences are kept in your own browser's local storage, which never leaves your device except when you create or update a calendar.
- No advertising, no profiling, no data sales. We do not sell or rent your data, and we do not share it for anyone else's marketing.
- No tracking across other websites. Our analytics (below) is cookieless and cannot follow you off this site.
Analytics
We use umami, a privacy-focused, cookieless analytics service, to count page views and a few product events, such as a calendar being created and which competitions are popular. These are aggregate counts. They are not tied to your email address or your calendar, and umami does not set cookies or build a cross-site profile.
Who else processes your data
- Amazon Web Services hosts the service and stores its data, in the US West (Oregon) region of the United States.
- Stripe processes payments and, for subscriptions bought through Stripe's Managed Payments, is the merchant of record. Stripe receives your email address and payment details directly from you.
- Resend delivers our transactional email (the sign-in link and a notice before a trial ends). We do not send marketing email.
- umami receives the anonymous, cookieless analytics described above.
Because our servers are in the United States, using Matchday involves your data being transferred there and to the providers listed above.
How long we keep it
Your account, calendars and selections are kept until you delete them, because a calendar has to keep working. Sign-in tokens, sign-in links and email counters expire automatically within hours or days. Backups may retain a copy for a short period after deletion.
Deleting your data
Sign in, open the account panel from the top right, and choose Delete account. That cancels any subscription, deletes your account and every calendar you own, and cannot be undone. Your calendar app will stop receiving updates, and any calendar link you had subscribed will stop working. You can also delete a single calendar from the list of your calendars, or email support@matchdayfeed.com and we will do it for you.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, export or delete your personal information, to withdraw consent, and to complain to a data protection authority. Email support@matchdayfeed.com to exercise any of them. We will not charge you or degrade the service for asking.
A note on calendar links
Your calendar link contains a random token and is not password-protected, because calendar applications cannot sign in. Anyone you give that link to can see the fixtures in that calendar. Treat it as private, and delete the calendar if you think the link has spread.
Children
Matchday is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect their personal information.
Changes
If this policy changes we will update the date at the top. Material changes affecting existing accounts will also be sent by email.
