• Contact Information: Your name, email address, and telephone number.
• Team & Venue Details: The pub or club you represent.

• Any additional information you choose to provide in the comments or message sections.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to manage and run the league effectively. Specifically, we use it to:

• Process team registrations and entry requests.
• Create fixtures, division tables, and track match results or statistics (such as high and fast finishes).
• Communicate important league updates, meeting notices, or fixture changes via email or phone.

4. How We Share Your Information

We respect your privacy and do not sell or rent your personal details to third parties. However, to run the league, we may share elements of your information as follows:

5. Data Retention

We will only keep your personal information for as long as is necessary to fulfil the purposes we collected it for, including any legal or reporting requirements. Typically, contact details for team representatives are refreshed or deleted at the conclusion of each season if they choose not to re-register.
