Review standards

Privacy and reviewer identities

Private does not mean absolutely anonymous

Public results will omit reviewer names and individual response cards. A one-response summary reflects that person’s answers, and small counts may make answers or participants inferable. Verification information, reports, and moderation notes are not public. Access should be limited to authorized people who need it to run the review process. Do not submit children’s names, jersey numbers, medical details, identifying disputes, or unnecessary documents.

Small-team context may still reveal who participated. We cannot promise complete anonymity or immunity from legal disclosure. Any legal request must be assessed for validity and scope before a response; these standards do not promise that information can never be disclosed or that every request will be challenged.

The account data-control notice describes collection, access, retention and deletion. The private request channel for privacy questions, corrections, and deletion requests is not accepting messages yet. It must be verified before reviews open and will be handled by the same administrator.

Withdrawing a review removes it from eligible public results; it does not erase its stored answers or moderation history. Account holders can read existing decision notices and withdraw an existing submission on the club’s review page. New submissions, revisions, and reconsideration requests are unavailable until the launch safeguards are verified. Notices are not currently sent by email.

Not yet accepting ratings

Review collection opens only after the security, private request, retention, verification, and moderation safeguards are verified. Parent, Player, and Coach club submissions, individual-Coach ratings, attachment requests, and public results remain closed. Disputes will use reconsideration by the sole administrator, not independent appeals.

The rules below describe the approved combined release design; they do not mean collection is open or that its safeguards are operational. Club summaries will keep Parent, Player, and Coach perspectives separate. Individual-Coach ratings will remain limited to eligible adult parents and require the coach’s account registration and verified club attachment. Existing directory listings alone do not make an individual coach eligible.

Safety reports belong in the right channel

Ratings are not a channel for allegations of abuse, discrimination, crimes, or other misconduct, and they are not monitored as an emergency service. No public misconduct labels will be offered. A high or low score is not a safeguarding finding.

For immediate danger, call 911. For other safeguarding concerns, follow the official reporting directions in our player safety guide. A private rating dispute is not a substitute for reporting to the responsible authority.
