Legal
How Skillzy collects, uses and protects your personal information on our website and mobile app.
Skillzy runs skill-based competitions through the website skillzyiq.com and the Skillzy mobile apps for iOS and Android. This policy explains what personal information we collect, why we collect it and the choices you have.
By using Skillzy you agree to this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our services.
Account details: your name, email address, phone number, region/city, and confirmation that you are 18 or older. Your password is stored only in encrypted (hashed) form.
Entries and orders: the competitions you enter, ticket numbers, answers to skill questions, cart contents, order and wallet history, and any prizes you win.
Payments: card and payment details are entered on our payment provider's secure page. We receive only the payment status and reference — we never see or store your full card number.
Device and usage data: language preference, device and browser type, IP address and basic logs needed to keep the service secure and working.
Camera: the app uses your camera only when you choose to scan a voucher QR code. Images are processed on your device and are not stored or uploaded.
We use your information to create and manage your account, process entries and payments, run draws and contact winners, send important service messages (such as order confirmations and password resets), provide support, prevent fraud and abuse, and comply with the law.
If you subscribe to our newsletter, we use your email to send competition news. You can unsubscribe at any time.
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers who help us run Skillzy (such as payment processing, hosting and email delivery), under obligations to keep it confidential, and with authorities when required by law.
To keep draws transparent, a winner's name, city and prize may be shown on our Winners and Results pages and on our social media.
We keep your information while your account is active and afterwards only as long as needed for legal, accounting or fraud-prevention reasons.
We protect your data with encrypted connections (HTTPS), hashed passwords and restricted access. No system is completely secure, but we take reasonable steps to protect your information.
You can view and update your account details at any time from your profile. You can delete your account directly in the app (Profile → Delete account) or by contacting us; your personal data is then deleted or anonymised, except where we must keep records by law.
You may also ask us for a copy of your data or to correct it.
Skillzy is only for people aged 18 and over. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If you believe a minor has created an account, please contact us and we will remove it.
We may update this policy from time to time. We will post the new version on this page, and important changes will be announced in the app or by email.
For any privacy questions or requests, contact us via the details on our Contact page at skillzyiq.com/contact.
