Welcome to SportsUTD. Your privacy is important to us. This Privacy Policy explains what data we collect, how it may be used, and your rights when visiting our website.
1. Who We Are
Our website address is https://sportsutd.com. SportsUTD is a sports media website providing news, updates, and features about football, cricket, esports, tennis, and other sports.
2. Comments
When visitors leave comments on the site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help with spam detection. An anonymised string (hash) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service’s privacy policy is available here. After your comment is approved, your profile picture (if any) becomes visible to the public alongside your comment.
3. Media
If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the website may download and extract any location data from images on the site.
4. Cookies
If you leave a comment, you may opt in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so that you do not need to fill in these details again when you comment next time. These cookies last for one year.
If you visit our login page, a temporary cookie will determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.
When you log in, we set several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days. Screen option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out removes these cookies automatically.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.
5. Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content such as videos, images, or social media posts. Embedded content behaves exactly as if the visitor has visited the originating website. These websites may collect data, use cookies, or embed third-party tracking to monitor your interaction with their content. If you have an account and are logged in to that website, they may also track your interactions.
6. Who We Share Your Data With
If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. Beyond this, SportsUTD does not share your data with any third parties except for basic spam-filtering and analytics services such as Google Analytics or Akismet.
7. How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them for moderation. For users who register on our website (if any), we store the personal information they provide in their user profile. Users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time except username changes. Website administrators can also view and edit that information. We do not retain any personal data beyond what is necessary for the above functions.
8. Your Rights
If you have an account or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You can also request that we delete any personal data we hold about you, excluding data retained for administrative, legal, or security purposes. Requests can be sent to contact@sportsutd.com.
9. Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to prevent misuse or fraudulent activity.
10. Contact
If you have any questions about this Privacy Policy, please contact us at contact@sportsutd.com.
