Protecting Young Athletes

Child Safety

NextGoal is built for minor athletes. Parents and guardians are at the centre of every privacy decision.

NextGoal does not share athlete information with governments, organizations, or third parties without appropriate permissions, consent, and applicable legal requirements.

Parent Control

Parents and legal guardians control minor athlete profiles on NextGoal.

Organization Linking

Guardians must approve before a minor is linked to a school, academy, or organization.

Profile Transfers

School or academy transfers require guardian approval for minor athletes.

Privacy Settings

Granular privacy controls let guardians decide what each audience can see.

Public Visibility

Public profile visibility can be disabled entirely — minors default to restricted access.

No Mandatory Government IDs

APAAR, PEN, Aadhaar, and state IDs are optional. No child is excluded for lacking them.

Optional Government Identifiers

The following identifiers are optional and never mandatory for participation:

Future government integrations will require explicit guardian consent. Sensitive values are hashed and never displayed in full.
