Privacy notice
This website is run by the Chelmsford City Darts League committee to publish fixtures, results and league tables.
What we collect
- Photos of result sheets that team captains send in. These show player names and scores.
- Player names, teams and match statistics such as 180s and checkouts.
- Committee members' email addresses so they can sign in.
- Your IP address is used briefly to stop too many uploads from one place. It is not used to identify you.
Why we use it
To run the league: checking results, working out tables and publishing player statistics. Names and scores appear on the public website once a result is approved.
Who can see it
Result sheet photos are kept private. Only committee members who have signed in can open them. An AI service (OpenAI) reads the photos to suggest the scores and names. A committee member checks every result before it is published.
The site is hosted on Railway in Western Europe and the data is stored with Supabase in Ireland.
Cookies and other services
- Committee members get a sign-in cookie so the site knows they are signed in. This is needed for the committee area to work.
- We do not use advertising cookies. Analytics cookies are only used if you accept them (see below).
- The result sheet form uses Cloudflare Turnstile, a spam check, so a small amount of technical information about your browser is sent to Cloudflare when you open that form.
- The site loads its fonts from Google Fonts, so your browser contacts Google when a page loads.
- Your browser may keep a few small settings on your own device, for example a draft that has not been sent yet, and your cookie choice. These are not sent to us.
Analytics cookies
If you press Accept on the cookie banner, we use Google Analytics to count visits and see which pages and sections of the site are used, such as tables, fixtures and players. This helps the committee decide what to improve. Google Analytics sets cookies on your device (they start with _ga) and sends information such as the pages you view, your approximate location, and your browser and device type to Google. We do not send player names, team names or any details from result sheets. We have switched off Google's advertising features and data sharing.
Nothing is sent to Google Analytics unless you accept. If you press Decline, or ignore the banner, no analytics cookies are set. The committee area and sign-in page are never included in analytics.
Our legal basis is your consent. You can change your mind at any time using the button below, or the Cookie settings link at the bottom of the main site. Declining or withdrawing removes the analytics cookies this site set.
Google may process this data outside the UK and Europe, including in the United States, under its own data protection terms. See how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
How long we keep photos
Photos are kept so a result can be checked if anyone queries it. They are normally kept until the end of the season, and may be kept for longer. The committee deletes old photos from time to time. Published results and player statistics are kept as the league's record.
Your rights
You can ask to see, correct or remove your details, including a player name on a published result. Contact Steve Redpath, League Secretary, at sredpath78@gmail.com.
