Safe Sport
We never hold the tape. That is the product.
Youth sport film — especially swim, dive, and gym — does not belong on a random server and does not belong in a consumer chat by default. Deck Stills is built so the recording stays with the person who pressed record.
- Custody. Video is read on-device. We do not operate a clip archive, a roster of minors, or a “team library.”
- Consent stays yours. Written parent/guardian consent, who may see the stills, and how long you keep them are club and family decisions. We cannot grant what we never received.
- Deck only. Do not film locker rooms, bathrooms, changing areas, or behind-the-block shots that are not the skill. The app will not make a prohibited camera legal.
- What leaves the phone is a pack you export. A PDF or sheet in Files is still an image of an athlete. Share it the way your club policy already requires — not because a cloud checkbox said yes.
- No one-on-one backchannel. We do not message athletes. There is no in-app chat with minors.
- Platforms will still scan what you upload elsewhere. If you drop a pack into a consumer AI chat, that service’s rules apply. We do not route the file for you.
This is architecture, not a waiver. Follow USA Swimming / U.S. Center for SafeSport (or your NGB) photography and electronic-communication policy. If a parent refuses film, that is the end of the conversation.
