PRIVACY
POLICY
HomeTeamManager is committed to safeguarding your privacy online. We have
posted this privacy policy to help you understand how your personal information
will be treated as you use and enjoy our website and/or your created
league/team website. This policy may change from time to time, so please check
back periodically.
COLLECTION OF INFORMATION
As you navigate the Site, HomeTeamManager or its affiliates may be collecting
or tracking personal information, either by asking you to tell us something
about yourself (for example, when you input your name and email address during
the registration process). Information about your activities may be collected
on an aggregate (i.e., group) basis, where we will not know or keep track of
precisely who you are. Personal information may be used to contact you again
concerning use of the website, information you may need to use the website, or
administrative activity, either by electronic communication (such as email) or
by regular mail or telephone.
HomeTeamManager may use information you post on your Web pages, or information
and comments sent by email, regular mail or telephone, for the Website or other
communications.
COOKIES
HomeTeamManager uses cookies to store and retrieve information to facilitate
your usage of the Site. A cookie is a small amount of data that is sent to your
browser from our Site and stored on your computer’s hard drive. This data is
used to help us improve the HomeTeamManager Site and to remind us who you are
when you return to the HomeTeamManager Site, allowing us to store your
preferences and customize your web space.
SERVICES/SOFTWARE AND REGISTRATION DATA
In order to access certain Services/Software within the site, you may be asked

email address, subscriber name or "screen name," areas of interest,

secure. HomeTeamManager has no liability for disclosure of Registration Data
due to errors in transmission or unauthorized acts of third parties.
THIRD PARTY ADVERTISING
Ads appearing on HomeTeamManager or your created league/team website may be
delivered to users by HomeTeamManager or one of our Web advertising partners.
Our Web advertising partners may set cookies. These cookies allow the ad server
to recognize your computer each time they send you an online advertisement. In
this way, ad servers may compile information about where you, or others who are
using your computer, saw their advertisements and determine which ads are
clicked on. This information allows an ad network to deliver targeted
advertisements that they believe will be of most interest to you. This privacy
statement covers the use of cookies by HomeTeamManager and does not cover the
use of cookies by any advertisers.
HOMETEAMMANAGER CHILDREN’S PRIVACY POLICY
HomeTeamManager helps you create an online community for players, coaches
and families for the sports and activities they love. To uphold this community,
HomeTeamManager is committed to safeguarding our users' privacy, especially the
privacy of our child users. (For the purposes of this policy a child is a
person 12 years of age or younger).
ABOUT THE CHILDREN’S ONLINE PRIVACY PROTECTION ACT (COPPA)
While HomeTeamManager uses its own measures to protect the privacy of its
child users, we are also compliant with the Children's Online Privacy
Protection Act, otherwise known as COPPA. We have posted the HomeTeamManager
Children's privacy policy to help both children and parents understand how a
child's personal information will be treated as that child uses and enjoys the
HomeTeamManager website. This policy may be modified from time to time to
better address your concerns or to reflect new changes in online policy, so
please check back frequently.
The Federal Trade Commission has established new rules for Website operators to
make sure that kids' privacy is protected while they're online. These rules,
which went into effect on April 21, 2000, are part of the 1998 Children's
Online Privacy Protection Act. The law requires that Website operators post
comprehensive privacy policies on their sites, notify parents about their
information practices, and obtain parental consent before collecting any
personal information from children under the age of 13 or allowing kids under
13 to publicly post personal information such as on Web pages, bulletin boards
or chat rooms without their parent's consent. For kids, this means that they
will not have free reign of all that the Web has to offer, unless their parent
provides consent.
Basically, the law was enacted not to restrict Web operators from providing
services and capturing useful data, but to restrict kids from releasing
information about themselves that could allow a stranger to contact them.

Who collects information?
Some portions of the HomeTeamManager website and/or your created league/team
website frame the content of third parties (for example, advertising banners)
or link to third party websites. Content framed on the HomeTeamManager website,
your created league/team website or third party websites that are linked from
the HomeTeamManager website or your created league/team website may also
collect information about you or your child. The information practices of those
advertisers and websites often are outside of our control and are not covered
by this privacy statement. In addition, we recommend that children use caution
when exiting the HomeTeamManager site or your created league/team website
through links or banners.
What kind of personal information is collected and how is it used?
HomeTeamManager also collects and uses information about our users to tailor
the way our website, and associated content and advertising, are presented to
you. HomeTeamManager may review and research our users' demographics,
interests, and behavior based on the information taken from a number of
sources, including information provided during registration, through use of the
website, and during promotions. Additional system information we may gather
includes time, type of Web browser being used, the operating system/platform,
your IP address, the web site from which you link to HomeTeamManager, and CPU
speed. We also take note of whether and how you use the information and
services that we provide by recording site traffic patterns, user clickstreams
and by maintaining log files of users' access to site files.
In addition, the HomeTeamManager website allows you or your child to post
individually identifiable information in public forums. For example, you or
your child may create a league/team website that may contain, among other
things, his or her name, picture, address, email address, schedule of game
locations and telephone numbers. When you or your child posts information in
such public forums the information can be viewed by the general public. In
compliance with the COPPA, HomeTeamManager requires parental permission before
any individual under the age of 13 can post information to general forums. In
keeping with our policy to protect our young users, HomeTeamManager strongly
advises that children refrain from posting information about themselves in
public forums because anyone may have access to this information.
HomeTeamManager may use information collected from your child, personal and
aggregate, to tell your child about products or services that may be of
interest to him or her. Personal information may also be used by
HomeTeamManager to contact your child, either by electronic communication or by
regular mail.
What are cookies and how does HomeTeamManager use them?
Cookies are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser to
assist us in recognizing you as an HomeTeamManager user and personalizing your
use of our website. The use of cookies is an industry standard. In fact, most
major Websites use them because they make surfing the Internet easier and less
time-consuming for you by saving your data such as user name, purchases, and
preferences while you're at the site. Cookies also help Web developers see
which parts of their site are most popular and which are least popular.
HomeTeamManager uses cookies for the same reasons - to ease and tailor you or
your child's experience on the HomeTeamManager website.
CANCELLING YOUR ACCOUNT
You may cancel your account at any time by sending an email to
info@HomeTeamManager.com. Once HomeTeamManager has finished processing the
cancellation, HomeTeamManager will delete all your personal information from
its database and you will no longer be able to access the public forums or
create personalized Web pages. Once canceling the account, you are required to
cease use of the any downloaded software from HomeTeamManager.
SECURITY
Although HomeTeamManager will use all reasonable efforts to safeguard the
confidentiality of your information, transmissions made by means of the
Internet cannot be guaranteed to be secure. HomeTeamManager has no liability
for disclosure of your information due to errors in transmission or
unauthorized acts of third parties.
PUBLIC FORUMS
When your child discloses individually identifiably information in public
forums (like Web pages, chat rooms and message boards), anyone can read or use
it. Your child should always be careful what he or she discloses in public
forums, and should never disclose information about how to contact him or her
without parental permission.
You have the option of not allowing your child to post information on public
forums. We only allow registered users to create websites or participate in
message boards. If you do not want your child to have access to the public
forums, simply do not allow your child to register or cancel your child's
account. (See the Opt-Out section above for more details on how to prevent
access to public forums.)
