What HockeyDash receives when you sign in with Google, what it stores for guests, and how to delete your account.

Browser storage

When you use HockeyDash as a guest, pinned teams, players, series, saved views, section order, and games are stored in localStorage on your device.

When you first sign in, HockeyDash imports those guest preferences into your account and removes the local pin data.

  • hockeydash.pins.v1 stores guest pins and saved views.
  • hockeydash.pins.seeded.v1 records whether guest dashboard defaults were initialized.

Google account data

Signing in is optional. HockeyDash requests only the 'openid' and 'email' scopes, which provide your Google account identifier and your verified email address. Nothing else is requested or received.

HockeyDash does not receive your name, profile picture, or Google password, and has no access to any other Google service, such as Gmail, Drive, Contacts or Calendar.

That data is used for one purpose: to create and sign you in to your HockeyDash profile, so that pinned teams, players, series and views sync across your browsers and devices. Your email address is also used to contact you about your account if that becomes necessary.

HockeyDash does not sell your data, does not share it with third parties, and does not use it for advertising.

  • Google account identifier — links your sign-in to your HockeyDash profile.
  • Verified email address — identifies your account and allows account-related contact.
  • Dashboard preferences — the pins and saved views you create on HockeyDash.

Analytics and feedback

HockeyDash uses Plausible analytics to understand aggregate site usage.

If you send feedback, your message, selected category, and optional email address are used to review and respond to that report.

Your controls

Guests can clear HockeyDash localStorage through their browser's site data settings. Signed-in preferences remain in the account profile.

You can sign out at any time from the HockeyDash top bar.

Deleting your account and data

You can ask for your HockeyDash account to be deleted at any time. Send the request from the contact page at thehockeydash.com/contact, using the email address you signed in with, and choose the 'Other' category.

Deletion removes your HockeyDash profile, including your Google account identifier, your email address, and your saved pins and views. Requests are actioned within 30 days.

You can also disconnect HockeyDash from your Google account at any time through your Google Account's third-party access settings. That stops future sign-ins but does not by itself delete the HockeyDash profile, so send the deletion request as well if that is what you want.
