Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 2026
This Privacy Policy applies to both Tennis Score Wizard and Tennis Score Wizard Companion. The apps store match information locally and can synchronize saved matches through the private CloudKit database for your Apple Account. The apps do not require a Tennis Score Wizard account or use a match-history server operated by the developer. The developer does not receive, sell, or use synchronized match data for advertising.
Data Collection
Tennis Score Wizard and Tennis Score Wizard Companion do not require a Tennis Score Wizard account, registration, email address, or profile. The developer does not receive match history, match statistics, workout summaries, or Health data through any server it operates. Apple may process data required to provide iCloud, the App Store, and operating-system services under Apple’s own terms and privacy policy.
Local Match History and Paired-Device Sync
Match history is stored locally on your Apple Watch and, when using Tennis Score Wizard Companion, on your paired iPhone. Automatic match stats, including points, serve, return, break points, match flow, tie-break, and available workout summary values, are stored as part of a saved match. Companion may also transfer match data directly between your paired Apple Watch and iPhone using Apple’s Watch Connectivity framework. This paired-device transfer and CloudKit synchronization are independent paths and may complete in either order.
Private iCloud Synchronization
When a device is signed in to an Apple Account and iCloud Drive is enabled, the apps can synchronize saved match records through Apple CloudKit. Records are stored in the private database for that Apple Account and count toward the user’s iCloud storage. By default, only that user can access the private database; the developer cannot view its records. Standalone and Companion use the same CloudKit container, allowing saved matches to synchronize between the two apps on Apple Watch and iPhone when they use the same Apple Account. Each Apple Account has a separate private history; changing accounts does not merge or transfer records between them.
When the apps detect an Apple Account change, they switch the visible local cache to the current account. Before removing the previous account’s local cache from that device, records still waiting to synchronize are retained in an encrypted local recovery copy tied to the previous account. Those records are not uploaded to the new account. Changing accounts does not delete records already stored in either account’s private CloudKit database.
Apple provides iCloud services under the Apple Privacy Policy and applicable iCloud Terms of Service.
Health and HealthKit
The apps can optionally request access to Health data to save tennis matches as workouts, display live heart rate during a recorded match, and show workout summary values such as Average Heart Rate, Maximum Heart Rate, Active Energy, and Match Duration after the workout is saved.
Health Access Is Optional
Health access is optional and controlled through Apple’s permission system. If permission is granted, HealthKit handles workout, heart-rate, and active-energy data on your devices, and the apps use it only for workout-related features. The apps do not send Health data to the developer, and the developer does not sell or share it.
Network Access
Scoring matches does not require network access. Network access is used when the operating system communicates with Apple services such as iCloud synchronization. The apps do not send tennis scores, match history, match stats, workout data, or heart-rate data to any server operated by the developer.
Analytics and Tracking
The apps do not use third-party analytics, advertising trackers, or tracking technologies.
Data Sharing
The developer does not sell, rent, or disclose match history, match stats, workout data, heart-rate data, or active-energy data to advertisers or data brokers. For iCloud synchronization, match records are sent to Apple’s CloudKit service. Companion can also transfer match records directly between the paired Apple Watch and iPhone through Watch Connectivity.
Deletion, Reinstallation, and Retention
Deleting a saved match inside the app synchronizes that deletion when iCloud is available. Removing the app from a device does not by itself delete match records that have already synchronized with iCloud. Those records can download again after reinstallation under the same Apple Account. A match that has not completed a successful iCloud sync may exist only on the original device.
