Hoop Dreams: Path to Glory is a single-player game with optional accounts. You can play and submit eligible leaderboard entries without creating an account. Your career save files live on your device. This page explains the information used by accounts, leaderboards and other online features.
Your career save files, settings, custom courts and jerseys are stored locally on your device. Leaderboard submissions and results used for optional account progression are sent as described below. Account data does not back up your full career save files; deleting the app can remove local saves.
Optional accounts. Firebase Authentication handles email/password sign-in, verification and password resets. Our account service receives your email and Firebase identity and stores your username, XP, achievements and linked career results. Passwords are forwarded to Firebase during sign-in or account creation and are not stored in our account database. Login tokens are stored on your device. Your username, both games’ progression summaries, approved bio and photo, and linked submission history are public, as described below. Only the profile image you choose to upload is sent.
Leaderboards. If you submit a career or a single game to the leaderboards, we receive the player name, submission name, player appearance, league, difficulty information, career identifier and submitted statistics. Guest submissions use the name you enter and do not require an account. Verified account submissions use your public account username and link to your public profile and submission history. Submitted entries are public. Your account email is not shown on leaderboards or public profiles.
Push notifications. If you turn notifications on, your device is issued a delivery token by Apple or Google, which is passed to Firebase Cloud Messaging so we can send game news and reminders. We do not ask for permission until you choose to turn notifications on, and you can turn them off at any time in your phone's settings. The token identifies your device for delivery only and is not linked to your name or your careers.
Hoop Dreams and Touchdown Dreams share one Firebase sign-in, unique username, profile bio and profile picture. XP, levels, achievements and login streaks are separate for each game. Signing in and linking a career sends qualifying results, progression records and daily-reward information to our services. The shared public profile displays both games’ levels, XP, achievement counts and login streaks, plus account-linked leaderboard activity. Entries remain on their original game’s leaderboard. An account is optional for playing and for eligible guest leaderboard submissions.
Your public username, account identifier, approved bio and photo, progression summaries and published leaderboard activity can be viewed by other players without signing in. Your email, password and session credentials are not public. Do not include sensitive information or identifying information about children in public content. Images are resized before upload; we receive only the image you select, not your photo library.
New bio and photo changes are held for review before publication. Existing approved content stays visible while a change is pending. We filter public text and may reject content, remove a profile or suspend public access for harassment, hate, sexual content, violence, impersonation or disclosure of private information. Use Report profile on a public profile to send a category and optional details to our moderation queue. We process reports and technical rate-limit information to investigate abuse.

Block player hides that account’s profile and leaderboard entries on the current device. Blocks are stored locally and can be removed in Account → Privacy & safety. They do not delete that player’s public content or prevent other people from viewing it. These games do not provide player-to-player messaging.
In either game, open Account → Privacy & safety → Delete account, enter your password and confirm. This permanently deletes the shared Firebase login, email/profile records, both games’ account XP and achievements, linked result history and account-owned leaderboard submissions. Deletion applies to both games; it cannot be undone. The service processes the request and retries if a connected service is unavailable. The screen shows completion only after cleanup and Firebase deletion finish. If a request stays pending, contact support. Temporary deletion credentials are held privately only while needed to complete the request.
Local career saves and exported files stay on their devices and can be removed separately. They are not cloud backups. Deleting the account does not delete unrelated guest submissions, copies other people have made of public content, or Apple/Google/RevenueCat purchase records. Contact support to request removal of a guest entry, giving the public player/submission name and career identifier if available. Never send passwords or login tokens. Store purchases are managed through the relevant store.
Account and progression records remain while the account is active. Pending profile changes remain until reviewed, replaced or deleted. Reports are held for moderation and removed when resolved or when the reported account is deleted. A minimal non-public deletion marker prevents old sessions/results from recreating a deleted account; completed deletion receipts contain no email, bio, photo, password or refresh token. Reserved developer usernames remain unavailable to prevent impersonation. Hosting providers may retain security logs and recovery copies under their retention policies; deleted records must not be restored to active use.
Support email is used to respond to requests and retained as needed for support and applicable obligations. Depending on your location, you may request access, correction, deletion or restriction, withdraw consent or object to processing, and contact a privacy authority. Email hyyoe11@gmail.com for help. We may need to verify ownership. Services may process information outside your country; their policies describe safeguards.
If this policy changes in a way that matters, the date at the top will move and the change will be described in the app's release notes.
