A school is listed when its public athletics website, a vendor partner page, a job posting or a staff title references SeatGeek with at least medium confidence. Detection is automated and re-run as directories refresh: absence means not detected, not not used, and contracts change, so confirm with the department before relying on a single listing.

The ticketing and revenue staff listed in each department's directory. Whistle shows their names, titles, emails and phones (where published) on paid plans, with alerts when the role changes hands.
From the staff directories athletic departments publish on their official websites, read automatically on a rolling schedule (NCAA Division I roughly weekly, Division II and III every three to four weeks). Whistle never publishes names, emails or phone numbers on public pages; staff can remove their details at any time at gowhistle.io/remove-my-info.
