Confirm it yourself — get the gold star

MatchWatch is live in London. We build listings from public business information and from the match listings venues publish on their own websites — so if your site names the games you’re showing, fans already see you as “On their site”.

Confirm the matches you’re showing through your venue profile and you earn the gold star: listed first for that match, and the only venues in the app’s Confirmed filter. While you’re there, add your screens and sound, booking options and photos — the whole profile takes about 3 minutes. It’s free, no account is required, and you can update or remove your listing at any time.

Get your personal link

We’ll email you a private link to your venue’s profile. Already had an email from us? The link in it is yours — no need to ask again.

Possible
Where every listing starts: built from public business information, nothing yet about this match.
Likely
Your website says you show this competition, but doesn’t name the match.
On their site
Your own website lists the match, so fans see it in green — no action needed from you.
Confirmed
You told us yourself. Gold star: first in the list for that match, the only venues in the app’s Confirmed filter, and a gold pin on the map.

✓ Add or claim your venue listing
✓ Update your venue details
✓ Correct match screening information
✓ Change your email preferences
✓ Request removal from the app
✓ Ask what data we hold about your venue

Privacy & data

What we collect and why

A plain-English summary of how MatchWatch handles data while we run our MVP. The full detail lives in the privacy notice and the cookies & browser storage notice.

What we collect

Public venue details (name, address, listed contact info)
Match screening responses you give us
Contact and communication preferences
Limited, cookieless app-usage data to improve the service

We use no cookies. Usage measurement is limited, self-hosted analytics — no advertising or cross-site trackers, aggregate-only, with an on/off switch in the cookies notice — and nothing is stored on your device beyond your own choices (your filters, your map location if you share it, your analytics switch).

Why we collect it

Only to operate MatchWatch: to show fans accurate listings, verify whether a venue is screening a fixture, and respond to venue requests.

Your choices

Venues can update details, change email preferences, or request removal at any time. We never sell your data.

Match screening responsesKept for the relevant season, then reviewed.
Removal requestsActioned promptly; we keep a minimal record that you asked to be removed.
Email correspondenceRetained while needed to handle your request.

Ask us to delete your venue’s data at any time and we’ll confirm once it’s done.
