Seam Cam does not have accounts, ads or analytics, and it does not send your team data to the developer. Almost everything stays on your device.
What the app uses, and why
- Camera and microphone. To record video and match audio. Recording happens on your device.
- Photo library. To save finished matches and clips to Photos, to show saved videos, and to let you pick a team logo.
- Local network and Bluetooth. To link a camera phone with a scoring iPad or iPhone nearby. The link is encrypted, needs the same six-digit code on both devices, and only works between devices close to each other.
- Your YouTube account (optional). If you choose to go live to YouTube, you sign in with Google. Seam Cam asks for permission to create and manage live broadcasts on your channel, and it uses that permission only to start and stop the broadcast you ask for.
What is stored on your device
Team names, colors and logos, rosters (player names and numbers), game scores, clip tags, settings, and the videos and clips you record. This information is stored in the app on your device. It is not uploaded to the developer or to any server run by the developer.
Your Google sign-in tokens and any stream address or key you enter are kept in your device's secure storage. Signing out in the app removes the tokens. You can also revoke access any time at myaccount.google.com/permissions.
When data leaves your device
- Going live. If you start a live stream, your video and audio are sent to YouTube, or to the service whose address you entered. That service's own privacy policy applies to what it receives.
- Sharing. Videos and clips are files you control. If you share them, upload them or send them to others, that is your choice.
- App updates. The app downloads its updates from Expo's update service, and Apple delivers the app through TestFlight or the App Store. These services may see standard technical information such as your IP address and app version, under their own policies.
Google user data
Seam Cam's use and transfer to any other app of information received from Google APIs will adhere to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including the Limited Use requirements. The app does not store your YouTube data on any server, does not share it, and does not use it for advertising.
What the app does not do
- No accounts with the developer, no advertising, no tracking and no analytics or crash-reporting services.
- No selling or sharing of your information.
- No access to your contacts, location or health data.
Video of children and teams
Seam Cam is built for filming youth and club sports, but it is a tool for adults and is not directed at children under 13. Rosters are typed in by the person using the app and stay on their device. If you film, stream or share video of other people's children, get the permissions your club, league or venue requires.
Keeping and deleting your data
You can delete teams, games and clips inside the app. Deleting the app removes everything it stored. Videos and clips you saved to Photos are separate files and stay there until you delete them.
