PokerSjef runs live poker events in a room. A club uses it to record the players, the clock, the seats, the results and the money that the club collects at the table. This page states what PokerSjef keeps about a person, where it keeps that data, and how to remove it.

Who Is Responsible

Francois Mouton, in Norway, operates PokerSjef. The club that runs the event decides what the records contain. The operator keeps PokerSjef in operation and is responsible for this page. If you have a question about this page or about your data, write to [email protected].

What PokerSjef Keeps

• Your name, as you or a club director writes it.
• Your first and last name. PokerSjef takes them from your Google or Facebook sign-in when you join. You can change them in Profile. Only you and the directors of your clubs see them.
• Your settings: the language, the date format, the picture to show, and your choice about the product newsletter. The newsletter is off until you set it to on. PokerSjef records when you change this choice.
• Your email address, when you sign in with one.
• The role that a club gives you, such as director, dealer or player.
• Your entries, your seats, your exits and your finishing places.
• The amounts that a club records for you, in whole minor units of money.
• A record of each change, with the account that made it and the time.
• A photo of an event's winner, when the club takes one or the winner adds their own. See "The Winner's Photo" below.

A player who never signs in still gets a record with a display name. The desk (a director or the Floor) creates that record when the person arrives. The record contains no email address.

Sign-In with Google or Facebook

Both sign-in buttons ask for the same two things from the account that you choose: your email address and your basic public profile. Your basic public profile is your name and your picture. PokerSjef asks for nothing else. It reads no mail, no contacts, no files, no photographs, no calendar, no posts and no list of friends. It never writes anything to your Google or Facebook account, and it never posts on your behalf.

PokerSjef uses the email address to recognise you when you return. It uses the name so that a club director can find you in a list. If there is a picture, PokerSjef shows it beside your name on the club roster.

You can remove the connection at any time. In a Google account, it is under Security, then "Your connections to third-party apps". In a Facebook account, it is under Settings, then "Apps and websites".

The Winner's Photo

When an event ends, a Floor or a director of the club can take a photo of the winner. PokerSjef tells them to ask the winner first. The winner can also add a photo of their own. The room clock and the results of the event show the photo to the people who can see that event. For a private event, these people are only its players and the club's owners and directors. For all other events, these people are the members of the club.

The photo has a long, random address, and no list shows it. From a phone, a person can share a card that shows the photo. The person who shares a card is responsible for what happens to it.

The winner can remove a photo of themselves from the results of the event at any time. A Floor or a director of the club can also remove it. PokerSjef also deletes the photo when somebody deletes the event, and when the winner deletes their account. When a club closes, its finished events keep their photos for the players who played them.

Where PokerSjef Keeps the Data

PokerSjef keeps the data in one PostgreSQL database at Supabase, in Stockholm, Sweden. The part of PokerSjef that makes the changes is at Supabase, in Frankfurt, Germany. The web pages and the address pokersjef.com come from Cloudflare. Cloudflare sees each visit to the pages (such as the address that it comes from), but not the data in the database.

When a club director types the name or the address of a venue in the club's settings, Google suggests places. PokerSjef sends the text that the director types there to Google, from its server, and it sends nothing else. No player's data goes to Google in this way. Supabase, Cloudflare and Google process the data on behalf of the club. No advertising company receives anything. PokerSjef sells nothing, and it shares nothing with another company.

You can open the venue of an event in Google Maps. That link takes you to Google's site, where Google's privacy terms apply. This site sends nothing to Google until you press the link.

Your Browser

PokerSjef keeps a sign-in token in your browser's storage, so that you stay signed in between visits. It also keeps your language and your date format there, so that the page opens in your language before you sign in. It uses no advertising cookie, no analytics service and no tracker. Nobody follows you to another site.

Money

No payment passes through PokerSjef. Cash moves in the room, between the people at the table. PokerSjef records the amount that a director enters. It keeps no card number and no bank details.

How Long PokerSjef Keeps the Data

A club keeps the history of a finished event, because the seasons and leagues use it. If you ask, the operator removes your email address and replaces your name in the records that are not part of a finished event. If you ask the operator to close your account, the operator deletes the account and the email address that belongs to it.

When a club closes, PokerSjef removes its members and their roles. PokerSjef also deletes the events of the club that did not start before it closed. It also deletes the private notes and the contact details that the club kept for players. The finished events of the club stay as they are, in the results of the players who played them. Only those players, and the operator for support, can see them.

How to Delete Your Data

At any time, you can delete your account and the data in it. It does not matter if you sign in with Google, with Facebook or with an email address.

1. To delete your account yourself, do these steps:
   1. Sign in to PokerSjef.
   2. To open the account menu, press your name and picture at the bottom of the sidebar. On a phone, press your picture at the top right of the screen.
   3. Choose Profile.
   4. Open the Danger Zone section.
   5. Press "Delete Account". The window shows what changes.
   6. Type your email address to confirm.
   7. Press "Delete My Account for Good". PokerSjef deletes the account at once.
2. Or write to [email protected] from the email address that you sign in with. Ask the operator to delete your account. The operator deletes the account within 30 days and then replies to you.
3. Either way, PokerSjef deletes your email address, your picture, any winner's photo of you and your sign-in link to Google or Facebook. It also replaces your name with "Deleted player" everywhere. If you are the owner or the only director of a club, give the club to another member first.
4. A finished event keeps its result, because the seasons and leagues of a club use it. PokerSjef replaces your name there, so the result does not show who you are.
5. If you want Facebook to share nothing with PokerSjef, remove PokerSjef in your Facebook account. It is under Settings, then "Apps and websites". In a Google account, it is under Security, then "Your connections to third-party apps". If you remove the connection there, your PokerSjef account stays. To delete the account, press "Delete Account" in Profile, or write to the email address above.

Your Choices

• Ask the operator for a copy of the data that PokerSjef keeps about you.
• Ask the operator to correct anything that is wrong.
• Ask the operator to remove your account and your email address.
• Refuse both social connections, Google and Facebook. If you ask, the operator gives you an account that you sign in to with an email address and a password instead. PokerSjef does not create this kind of account by itself.

Write to [email protected]. The operator answers within 30 days. You can also complain to the Norwegian Data Protection Authority, Datatilsynet.

Security

Each club sees only its own data. The database checks the role of the account on every read and every write. PokerSjef records who made each change.

Children

PokerSjef is for adults who play at a club. Do not create an account for a child.
