Privacy Policy

At Sportbex, we respect your privacy and are dedicated to protecting your personal data with the highest standards of care. Our website and services focus on providing sports-related data, statistics, and updates. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect the information you share when using our sports data platform.

This Policy applies to everyone who interacts with Sportbex, including visitors, registered users, and customers. Whether you are browsing our site, creating an account, subscribing to our services, or contacting us for support, you can trust that your information will be handled responsibly and transparently. By using our Website and Services, you confirm that you understand and accept this Policy. If you do not agree, we ask that you stop using our Website and Services.

This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in our services, regulatory requirements, or best practices. When significant updates occur, we may notify you through our website, by email, or other direct communication methods. We also encourage you to review our Policy on a regular basis to remain up to date on how we are protecting your personal data.

Automatic Collection of Information

When you use the Sportbex website, some information is collected automatically from your device or browser. This may include your IP address, browser type, operating system, language settings, the page you visited before coming to Sportbex, the pages you view on our site, how long you spend on them, your search activity, and the date and time of your visits. 

We collect this information to protect our services, prevent abuse, and better understand how users use our website. The information is combined into general statistics and is not linked to you personally, so your privacy remains protected.

Collection of Personal Information

You can browse and use most parts of the website without sharing who you are or giving any personal details. However, if you want to use certain features, you may need to provide information such as your name, email address, or login details like a username and password.

We only collect the information you choose to give us, for example when you create an account or fill in a form. Sometimes, we may also get information from trusted sources such as public databases or partners.

Sharing personal information is always your choice. Please note that without it, some features of the website may not be available to you. If you are unsure about which details are required, you can always contact us for clarification.

Use and Processing of Collected Information

To provide you with access to our Website and Services, or to comply with legal requirements, we need to collect and use certain Personal Information. If you choose not to provide the requested information, we may not be able to deliver the products or services you need. The information we collect from you may be used for purposes such as:

• Creating and managing your user account
• Sending important updates and administrative information
• Responding to your questions and providing support
• Improving your overall experience on our Website
• Operating and maintaining the Website and Services effectively

The way we process your Personal Information depends on how you use our Website and Services, your location, and specific legal requirements. We may process your data if:

1. You have given consent for one or more specific purposes (unless restricted by laws like the CCPA or European data protection rules).
2. The information is needed to perform an agreement with you or fulfill pre-contractual obligations.
3. We are required to do so by law.
4. The processing is required for actions performed in the public interest or with governmental authority. 
5. It is needed for legitimate interests pursued by us or a third party.

In some regions, we may process your information without relying on consent, unless you object (opt out). If you want to know the exact legal basis that applies to your data, we are always available to provide clarification, including whether sharing your information is required by law, contract, or necessary to use our services.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

At Sportbex, we value your privacy and want you to clearly understand how we use cookies and similar technologies. This section explains what cookies are, why we use them, how long they stay on your device, and how you can manage or disable them if you prefer.

Cookies are small text files placed on your device by a website server. They cannot run programs, install software, or deliver viruses. Each cookie is unique to you and can only be read by the website that created it. At Sportbex, we may use cookies to improve your online experience, remember your preferences, and collect anonymous statistics that help us understand how people use our Website and Services.

You can choose whether to accept or decline cookies. Most browsers accept them automatically, but you can adjust your settings at any time to block or delete them. If you decline cookies, some features of our Website may not work properly. 

Managing Information

You have the option to delete certain Personal Information we hold about you. The type of information you can remove may vary as our Website and Services are updated. Please note, even if you delete your information, we may still keep a copy of the original record for as long as necessary to meet our legal duties, support our partners, or for the purposes explained in this Policy.

If you wish to delete your Personal Information or permanently close your account, you can do so through the account settings on our Website, or by simply contacting us directly.

Disclosure of Information

To provide the Services you request or to complete certain transactions, we may share your information with your consent with trusted third parties that help us operate the Website and Services. These may include our affiliates, subsidiaries, or service providers who work with us. We never share your Personal Information with unrelated third parties.

The service providers we work with are only allowed to use your information to perform specific tasks on our behalf or when required by law. They are not permitted to use or disclose your Personal Information for their own marketing or any other purposes.

When we share your information, it is only with third parties whose privacy practices are consistent with ours or who have agreed to follow our standards for handling Personal Information. These parties receive only the data necessary to carry out their duties, and nothing more.

Retention of Information

We keep your Personal Information only for as long as it is needed to meet our legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce our agreements. If the law requires or allows us to keep it for a longer period, we may do so.

Even after you update or delete your information, we may continue to use aggregated data that includes your information, but only in a way that does not personally identify you.

Once the retention period ends, your Personal Information will be permanently deleted. At that point, rights such as access, erasure, correction, or data portability cannot be applied.

Transfer of Information

Depending on where you live, we may need to transfer and store your information in a country different from your own. This could include transfers to countries outside the European Union or to international organizations (for example, the United Nations). Whenever such transfers happen, we take appropriate security measures to protect your information and keep it safe.

You have the right to know the legal basis for these transfers and the safeguards we use to protect your data. More details can be found in the relevant sections of this Policy, or you can contact us directly using the information provided in the “Contact” section.

The rights of users

You have several rights when it comes to the personal information we collect and use. You can take back your consent at any time if you had previously agreed to us using your data. You also have the right to say no to certain types of data processing if it is not based on your consent.

You can ask us if we are using your information, get details about how it is being used, and request a copy of the data we hold about you. If your information is wrong or incomplete, you can ask us to correct or update it. In some cases, you can also request that we stop using your data, meaning we will only keep it stored but not use it for anything else.

In certain situations, you can ask us to delete your personal information completely. You also have the right to receive your data in a simple, commonly used digital format. If possible, you can even ask us to send your data directly to another service provider. These rights apply mainly when your data is handled through automated systems and when the processing is based on your consent or an agreement with us.

Data Protection Rights under GDPR

If you live in the European Economic Area (EEA), you are given special data protection rights under GDPR. We take steps to make sure you can view, correct, update, or limit how we use your personal information. If you would like to know what data we hold about you or if you want it removed from our systems, please contact us.

Here are your main rights under GDPR:

• Access: You can request a copy of the personal information we have about you.
• Correction: If any of your data is wrong or incomplete, you can ask us to correct or complete it.
• Erasure: You can request that we delete your personal information in certain situations.
• Object: You can object to us using your personal data for certain purposes.
• Restriction: You can ask us to stop processing your data. In that case, we will keep it stored but not use it further.
• Data Portability: You can request your information in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. You can also ask us to transfer it to another service provider where possible.
• Complain: You have the right to file a complaint with your local Data Protection Authority if you are unhappy with how we collect or use your personal information.

Privacy of Children

We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under the age of 18. If you are under 18, please do not share any personal details on our Website or Services. Parents and guardians are strongly encouraged to guide and monitor their children’s online activity, and to make sure they understand not to provide personal information without permission.

If we find out that a child under 18 has shared personal data with us, we will take steps to remove it. If you believe this has happened, please contact us immediately. In some countries, you must also be at least 16 years old to give consent for us to process your personal information. If you are younger than that, your parent or guardian may need to give consent on your behalf.

Do Not Track Signals

Some web browsers include a “Do Not Track” option that sends a signal to websites, telling them you don’t want your online activity monitored. In this context, tracking means collecting personal details about your behavior as you move across different sites over time. We want you to know that Sportbex does not track users in this way. Still, third-party websites linked through our services may track your browsing to personalize the content they show.

Links to Other Websites

From time to time, our Website and Services may provide links to other websites or resources. These external sites are not operated or controlled by Sportbex, and we cannot be held responsible for their privacy practices. We recommend that you read the privacy policies of any site you visit outside of Sportbex, especially if you share personal details there.

Information Security

We make every effort to protect the information you provide by storing it on secure servers and using safeguards designed to prevent unauthorized access, misuse, or disclosure. Our protections include technical, physical, and administrative measures. However, it’s important to understand that no system or online transmission is completely risk-free. While we work hard to safeguard your data, there is always a small chance information could be intercepted or tampered with during transfer.

Data Breach

If a security issue ever compromises our systems or exposes personal data to third parties, we will act quickly. This may involve conducting an internal investigation, working with law enforcement, and taking measures to prevent further incidents. If we believe you are at risk or if the law requires it, we will notify you either by posting a notice on our website or by contacting you directly via email.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy occasionally to reflect changes in our services, new legal requirements, or industry practices. When changes are made, we will revise the “last updated” date at the bottom of this page. In cases of major changes, we may also notify you through direct communication such as email. The updated Policy will take effect immediately upon posting unless we say otherwise. We will never use your personal information in a new way without your consent.

Acceptance of This Policy

By visiting or using the Sportbex Website and Services, you confirm that you have read and agreed to our Terms of Service. If you do not accept the terms outlined here, we respectfully ask that you stop using our Website and Services.
