The Fine Print
Privacy Policy
Fourth & Long is testing an AI-assisted fantasy football newspaper. We collect the minimum information needed to run the Founding Beta, and we do not sell or rent personal information.
Interest list
When you join the Founding Beta interest list, we store your email, when and where the form was submitted, and advertising attribution sent with the visit, such as UTM campaign values or a platform click ID. We use this information to manage invitations, contact you about the beta, prevent abuse, and understand which campaign led to the request. A pseudonymous network rate-limit key may also be stored to prevent one client from overwhelming the form; the raw network address is not kept in the waitlist table. Email-only requests are recorded as unverified; a verified Google/Clerk identity is marked separately. We do not treat an unverified request as permission for unrelated marketing.
Accounts and Google
If you choose an account or Google sign-in option, our authentication provider handles that sign-in and gives us basic identity information, including a verified email. Fourth & Long does not request access to your Gmail messages, contacts, or files. Signing in does not by itself create a paper or grant a beta invitation.
Invited commissioners
If invited, we store your paper settings and the Sleeper league ID you provide. Sleeper league IDs let us read league data available through Sleeper’s API, including names, rosters, records, matchups, and transactions. We never ask for your Sleeper password.
Member access and papers
Some league papers are public to anyone with their web address. The default league paper and its curated photo archive are private. For private access, we process the email you enter, compare it with the league roster, send a short-lived sign-in link, and set a signed, HttpOnly member cookie after that link is opened. Paper pages may include fantasy team names, standings, rosters, transactions, and AI-assisted editorial copy. Account details, roster email addresses, and commissioner settings are not published.
Paper delivery and feedback
If you subscribe to a paper, we store your email, subscription status, paper association, and an unsubscribe token so editions and service notices can be delivered. Feedback submissions may include the name and note you provide, the page and visual theme, and a shortened browser identifier. We use those details to respond to feedback, improve the paper, and prevent abuse. You can unsubscribe through the confirmation link in any issue.
Service providers
We use service providers for authentication, hosting, database storage, AI writing or artwork, email delivery, and the Sleeper data connection. Each receives only the information needed for its part of the service. Paid checkout is not currently open in the Founding Beta.
