Data Storage and Security
All user-generated content (favorites, notes, game plans, preferences) is stored locally on your device using AsyncStorage. We do not operate servers that store your personal data.

Third-Party Links
The app may contain links to external websites or services (such as the Google Play Store). We are not responsible for the privacy practices of these third-party sites. We encourage you to review their privacy policies.
