This show is adult-owned and adult-managed

This account and website are owned and managed by Cooper's parent/guardian. All messages, sponsorship inquiries, and publishing decisions are handled by an adult — Cooper does not manage accounts, respond to direct messages, or handle business communication.

To protect Cooper, we do not publish or discuss:

• His school name or location
• His home address or a live/real-time location
• His personal phone number or private email address
• Recurring practice locations, schedules, or routines

This site and our social accounts do not offer private messaging or community features that would let an adult contact Cooper directly. Comments are moderated, and business or guest inquiries are routed through the contact page to an adult — never to Cooper.

Before any other minor appears on the show, we get written permission from that child's parent or guardian, using the same guest-permission process described in our production documentation (docs/GUEST_PERMISSION_WORKFLOW.md).

Cooper's bold takes and predictions are about sports outcomes and opinions — not medical, financial, or gambling advice, and not fighting instruction. We don't present him as an expert on sports betting, medicine, or finance, and any boxing/MMA content is discussion and reaction, not technique instruction.

Any future sponsorship or paid partnership is reviewed and approved by an adult before it's ever recorded or published. See docs/FUTURE_MONETIZATION.md in our production documentation.

We do not run analytics, and our newsletter signup is not yet active — see the homepage for its current status. If and when we add analytics or an email list, this page will be updated first to explain exactly what's collected and why.

Game Day Central's weekly Pick'em lets visitors pick a winner in a few games and see a leaderboard. It works without an account:

• You get a fun, made-up nickname (like “TurboTiger24”) — generated for you from a fixed list of approved words. There is no place to type your own name anywhere on this site.
• A random code is stored in your browser (not readable by any page script) so we can recognize your picks if you come back. We only ever store a scrambled, one-way version of that code — never the code itself.
• Which team you picked, and when, so we can show whether you got it right.
• We never collect your real name, email, phone number, birthday, age, address, location, school, a photo, or a social media handle — and there's no comment box to type any of that into.
• Picks are kept through the current sports season, then cleared out by an adult. Clearing your browser's cookies gives you a brand-new, disconnected identity at any time.

Our hosting and database providers keep their own ordinary technical logs, the way any website does — we don't use those for anything, and we never use your IP address as part of your Pick'em identity.

A real, adult-managed inbox for privacy or safety concerns isn't set up yet — see the contact page for the current status. Once it's live, an adult reads and responds to every message.
