World Cup Simulator ("we", "the site") is an independent, fan-made World Cup predictor. This policy describes how we handle information when you use the site at worldcup-simulator.com.
What we collect
- Account data: if you sign in with Google, we receive your name, email address and profile image to create and identify your account. We never see your Google password.
- Your predictions: the match tips, brackets and league memberships you create, so we can save and display them back to you.
- Guest data: if you play without an account, your picks are tied to a cookie-based guest identifier on your device rather than to a personal profile.
- Basic usage data: standard server logs and, with your consent, aggregated analytics about how the site is used.
Cookies and consent
We use strictly necessary cookies for sign-in and to remember guest predictions. Analytics and advertising cookies only load after you accept them in the consent banner, and you can change or withdraw that choice at any time. Full details are in our cookie policy.
Third parties
- Google sign-in (Auth) — to authenticate your account.
- Google Analytics — privacy-respecting, aggregated usage statistics, loaded only with consent.
- Google AdSense and affiliate partners — to show ads that keep the site free, loaded only with consent.
These providers process data under their own privacy policies. We do not sell your personal data.
How long we keep it
We keep account and prediction data for as long as your account is active. You can ask us to delete your account and associated predictions at any time, and guest data naturally expires when you clear your browser cookies.
Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have the right to access, correct, export or delete your personal data, and to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these, email info@succe.com and we'll help.
Changes
We may update this policy as the site evolves. Material changes will be reflected on this page with an updated date.
