CSWStats ("we", "us", "our") is committed to protecting your personal data. This policy explains what data we collect, why, and how we use it, in line with the UK General Data Protection Regulation (UK GDPR).
The data controller is CSW STATS LTD, a company registered in England and Wales with company number 17251461, contactable at contact@cswdarts.co.uk.
You can browse the darts schedules, results, rankings, checkout guides and the daily game without an account and without giving us any personal data at all. The table below is collected only if you register. Like every website, our server also keeps a short technical log of visits, described under Server logs.
| Data | Why we collect it | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Email address | Account creation, login, verifying your address and password resets | Contract |
| Password (scrypt hash) | Account authentication | Contract |
| Display name | Shown on your own records and the scored-games leaderboard, if you choose to appear on it | Contract |
| Profile photo (optional) | Your own avatar, if you upload one. Only you can see it. You can remove it at any time from your account page | Consent |
| Games you score | Your game history, records and averages | Contract |
| Whether you asked for stats syncing back | Counting demand for stats syncing, if you click to register interest | Consent |
| Session cookie | Keeping you logged in | Legitimate interest |
Server logs. Our web server records each request it receives: the address of the page, the time, your IP address, the page you came from and your browser's name. We use these logs to keep the site running and secure and to count visits. This is necessary for the site to work (legitimate interest). The logs are deleted automatically after 14 days and are never shared.
We do not sell your data. The only advertising on the site is described under Cookies below: Mediavine and its partners choose the ads, and they are only personalised if you agree.
The camera in the autoscorer. The autoscorer reads your dartboard from your phone's camera, and that picture is processed on your phone: it is not sent to us. Two things can leave the phone, and only these:
When you play someone at random, no camera picture is sent at all: each player only sees the other's darts drawn on a board. Chat with a random opponent is limited to set phrases. In every online game the darts you throw and the name you enter are shown to the other player.
CSW Darts in ChatGPT and Claude. If you use our darts tools inside ChatGPT (OpenAI) or Claude (Anthropic), the assistant sends our server only what your question needs, such as a player's name or a score. We do not receive your conversation, your name or your account details. These requests appear in our server logs, which are kept for 14 days, and nothing else is stored. OpenAI's and Anthropic's own privacy policies cover what they do with your conversation. See CSW Darts in ChatGPT and Claude.
Server logs are kept for 14 days. We retain your account data for as long as your account is active. If you delete your account, we will permanently delete your personal data within 30 days, except where we are required to retain it for legal or accounting purposes (e.g. payment records for up to 7 years under UK law).
We use the following cookies:
_ga, _ga_*) - only set if you agree in the consent message (to storing information on your device and measuring content, for Google). Used to count visitors and see which pages get the most attention. IPs are anonymised. You can change your mind any time with the privacy settings link the consent message provides.Advertising. Ads on this site are served by Mediavine and its partners. When you first visit, a consent message (an IAB Transparency and Consent Framework tool) asks whether you agree to cookies and similar technologies being used for ads and measurement. If you agree, Mediavine and its partners may use them to show ads based on your visits to this and other websites. If you do not, you still see ads, but they are not personalised and only use cookies where the law allows, for example to limit how often an ad is shown and to prevent fraud. You can change your choice at any time through the "Update Privacy Settings" link the consent message provides, and turn off personalised ads across Google at My Ad Center. We do not run any other advertising or retargeting of our own.

You also have the right to lodge a complaint with the UK's data protection authority, the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO).
Your CSWStats password is stored as a scrypt hash and is never readable by us in plaintext. All data in transit is encrypted via HTTPS/TLS. We apply industry-standard server security practices to our Oracle Cloud infrastructure, including rate limiting on authentication endpoints to prevent brute-force attacks.
CSWStats is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from anyone under 13. If you believe a child has registered, please contact us and we will delete the account.
We may update this policy. When we do, the new version goes on this page with a new "last updated" date. Please check back from time to time.
