Privacy Policy

FanSportly collects only the data needed to operate the site, community features, abuse prevention and basic traffic measurement.

Information we process

Account features may store a nickname, a salted password hash, session records, points and community activity. Community posts, comments and uploaded media are stored when you choose to submit them. The contact form may store the email address you voluntarily provide and the message you send.

For basic analytics, FanSportly creates an anonymous browser identifier in local storage and records page visits. It may also aggregate broad device category (mobile, fold/tablet or desktop), the referring site domain and anonymous feature-use counts such as team follows or Fan Picks. Search text, IP addresses and personal browsing histories are not stored in the analytics dashboard.

Cookies and local storage

Login sessions use a secure HTTP-only cookie. An anonymous visitor identifier may be stored in your browser for traffic counting. If Google advertising is enabled in the future, Google and its advertising partners may use cookies or other local storage as described in their own policies, and consent controls will be shown where required.

Advertising and consent

FanSportly may use Google AdSense after approval. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to FanSportly or other websites. Google and its partners may use advertising cookies to personalize ads where permitted. Users can manage or opt out of personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings. For visitors in regions where consent is required, FanSportly will use a Google-certified consent management flow before personalized advertising is served.

Third-party services

The site may use Cloudflare infrastructure and automated moderation or AI services to host, secure and operate features. Articles link to third-party sources, and those sites have their own privacy practices.

Your choices

You may avoid creating an account or submitting community content. For privacy questions, account concerns or data requests, use the Contact page.
