Last updated: September 23, 2026

ScoutGlimpse is a self-serve tool for sports-sponsorship agencies and brands to check an athlete's real public audience numbers before signing a deal. This page covers two different things, because they're genuinely different: the account data you give us when you sign up, and the public athlete data our product looks up on your behalf. We only collect what the product needs to function — nothing more.

Account data (what we collect from you)

Athlete data (what the product looks up)

This is the core of the product, and the part most worth being precise about: the athletes you research through ScoutGlimpse are not our customers and have no account with us. We don't collect anything from them directly, and we never ask them to connect an account or grant us access. Everything we show about an athlete comes from data that's already public, pulled from these sources:

What we don't do: we don't collect data from TikTok (we only link to profiles that schools publish), don't scrape private or login-gated pages, and don't request access to any athlete's own account, inbox, or private information. Name-based matching (for news and stats) can occasionally match the wrong person with a common name — we flag this as a known limitation rather than presenting every match as certain, and you should treat any single data point as a lead to verify, not a final answer.

We retain a rolling history of an athlete's public follower/subscriber and view/post counts (snapshots) for athletes on a customer's watchlist, so we can show real growth trends instead of a single point-in-time number. Public profile counts looked up once are kept in a shared cache for up to a day so that repeat searches don't re-query the platform. We don't sell or license this data to anyone outside of showing it to the customer who watchlisted that athlete.

YouTube API Services

ScoutGlimpse uses YouTube API Services to power the athlete lookup, watchlist, and Discovery features described above. This is read-only, public-data access via our own server credential — no customer or athlete ever connects a YouTube account or grants us access to anything requiring a login. By using these features, you're also agreeing to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service.

Because we use YouTube API Services, Google's own Privacy Policy also applies to how Google handles data in connection with that API — see Google's Privacy Policy.

ScoutGlimpse'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.

Retention of YouTube data. The public channel data we receive from YouTube (name, picture, description, subscriber and view counts, and the growth readings built from them) is kept only for channels on a customer's watchlist and is refreshed every few hours. Readings older than 30 days, and channels that no watchlist tracks and that we have not refreshed in 30 days, are deleted automatically. You can ask us to delete any channel's data earlier at [email protected]. A YouTube channel owner can also manage or revoke access to data held by Google through the Google security settings page, although ScoutGlimpse never asks channel owners to connect an account.

Billing

Subscription payments are processed by Stripe. We never see or store your full card number — Stripe handles that directly, under its own privacy policy. We store only your subscription status and tier.

Where data lives

Data is stored on Cloudflare's infrastructure (D1 database) and processed by our backend (Cloudflare Workers). Password-reset emails are sent via Cloudflare's own email-sending infrastructure. We do not operate our own physical servers.

How we protect data

Data sharing and disclosure

We do not sell, rent, or trade account data or athlete data — including any data obtained via YouTube API Services — to advertisers, data brokers, or any other third party for their own purposes. We disclose data only in these limited cases:

If you're an athlete whose public data appears in ScoutGlimpse

If you're an athlete (or represent one) and believe your public data is being shown inaccurately, or you'd like to understand what a specific customer's watchlist entry contains, contact us at the email below. We can't control what's publicly published on YouTube, ESPN, or NCAA sites — that data lives with its original source, and correcting it there is the most effective fix — but we will review and, where reasonable, correct a name-matching error on our side, or remove an entry from active tracking on request.

Your controls

Children's privacy

ScoutGlimpse is a B2B tool built for sponsorship agencies and brands, not for personal or consumer use, and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect account data from anyone under 18.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes materially, we'll update the "Last updated" date above and, for significant changes, notify active account holders by email.
