Privacy Policy

Last updated 9 November 2026

This policy explains what information DartScore.uk (“we”) uses when you visit www.dartscore.uk or use the scoreboard, why we use it, and the choices you have. If you have a question, email [email protected].

Playing without an account

You can use the scoreboard without signing up. Player names you type, game progress and statistics are stored in your own browser (using local storage and IndexedDB) so that games can resume and your statistics can be shown. This information stays on your device unless you sign in. Clearing your browser's site data deletes it.

If you create an account

We store the following so that your account works:

• Your email address, username and display name.
• Your password in hashed form, if you register with a password. We cannot read it.
• If you use Google Sign-In, the basic profile details Google shares with us, such as your name and email address.
• Your game history, statistics and achievements.
• Login session details, including your IP address, used to keep you signed in and protect your account.

We use this information to provide the service: to sign you in, sync your statistics between devices and show your progress. Our legal basis is providing the service you asked for and our legitimate interest in keeping it secure.

Your display name and statistics can appear on the public leaderboard once you have played recorded games. If you would prefer not to appear, ask us to delete your account.

Cookies we set

Advertising (Google AdSense)

We may show adverts provided by Google AdSense. Google and its partners act as third-party vendors and use cookies to serve adverts.

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve adverts based on your previous visits to this website or other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve adverts to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
• You can opt out of personalised advertising in Google Ads Settings, or opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies at aboutads.info.

Google explains more in How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.

Analytics

• Google Analytics tells us how many people visit, which pages they read and roughly where they are from. See the Google Privacy Policy.
• Microsoft Clarity records how visitors use pages, such as clicks, scrolling and session replays, so that we can find usability problems. See the Microsoft Privacy Statement.

Other service providers

• Cloudflare delivers and protects the website, and processes technical data such as IP addresses to do so.
• jsDelivr delivers a software library used by the scoreboard, and receives standard request data such as your IP address.
• Our hosting provider stores the website and account database.

We do not sell your personal information. Some of these providers operate outside the UK, so your information may be processed in other countries under their own safeguards.

How long we keep information

We keep account information while your account exists. Email us to have your account and its data deleted. Data stored in your browser stays until you clear it.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, including the UK and EU, you may have the right to access, correct or delete your personal data, to object to or restrict how it is used, to withdraw consent, and to receive a copy of it. To use any of these rights, email [email protected]. If you are in the UK you can also complain to the Information Commissioner's Office.

Managing cookies

You can block or delete cookies in your browser settings. The scoreboard still works without an account, but signing in needs cookies.

Children

DartScore.uk is not directed at children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect their personal information. If you believe a child has created an account, please contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We will post any changes on this page and update the date at the top.
