Privacy Policy — Copa
Last updated: 20 September 2026
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy governs your use of the mobile application Copa (previously released as RefAssistant) for iPhone and iPad, created by me, Vladimir Muravev ("I", "me").
Copa lets you manage amateur football tournaments: teams, players, matches and the events within those matches.
2. What I collect
Nothing. Copa contains no analytics, no tracking, no advertising and no user accounts. I receive no information about you or about how you use the app, and I have no access to the content you create.
3. Where your data is stored
Everything you enter — teams, players, matches, tournaments and statistics — is stored on your device.
If you are signed in to iCloud, this data is also synchronised through your own private iCloud database using Apple CloudKit, so that it is available on your other devices and survives a lost or replaced device. That data resides in your personal Apple account: I have no access to it and it is not shared with any third party. Apple's handling of iCloud data is governed by Apple's own privacy policy.
Copa works fully offline. Syncing is optional and stops if you sign out of iCloud or turn iCloud off for the app in Settings.
Player photos are optional and follow the same path. The image is downscaled to 512 pixels on its long side, stored on your device, and synchronised through your own private iCloud database when syncing is on. I have no access to these images, they are not shared with anyone, and they are not used for analytics.
4. Sensitive data
Copa does not request or collect location, microphone, contacts, health or payment data.
The camera is used in one place only: when you choose to take a photo for a player's card. iOS asks for permission at that moment, and you can decline it or revoke it later in Settings — the rest of the app works unchanged. Copa never asks for access to your photo library: when you pick an existing picture, you choose it in the system picker, which hands the app that one image and nothing else.
5. Your choices
Stop syncing: turn iCloud off for Copa in iOS Settings, or sign out of iCloud.
Remove a photo: open the player's card and choose "Remove photo".
Delete your data: remove items inside the app, or uninstall the app to erase everything stored on the device. Data held in your iCloud account can be managed in iOS Settings → your name → iCloud.
6. Children
Copa is rated for all ages and collects no data, so no personal information about children is gathered.
7. Changes to this policy
I may update this policy as the app develops. The current version is always available at this address, and the date at the top shows when it last changed.
8. Agreement
By using Copa, you agree to this Privacy Policy.
