Privacy Policy

About this policy

ABScore (“ABScore,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) provides live football scores, fixtures, results, match statistics, predictions, rankings, and community features. This Privacy Policy applies whenever you access or use an ABScore service that links to it.

By using ABScore, you acknowledge the practices described in this policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.

1. Information we collect

Information you provide

• Account details such as your username, email address, profile information, and password or sign-in credentials.
• Content you submit, including forum posts, comments, football predictions, reactions, reports, and messages sent to support.
• Your preferences, such as favourite teams, competitions, notification settings, and language.

Information collected automatically

• Device and app information, including device type, operating system, app version, language, identifiers, and network information.
• Usage and diagnostics, such as screens viewed, features used, interactions, crash logs, performance data, and approximate location derived from your IP address.
• Cookies and similar technologies used on our website to remember preferences, understand usage, maintain security, and measure performance.

ABScore does not request or collect precise GPS location, contacts, photos, videos, audio recordings, health information, financial information, or payment card details unless a feature clearly asks for the information and you choose to provide it.

Information from third parties

If you sign in through a third-party provider, we may receive information that provider makes available to us, such as your name, email address, and account identifier. We may also receive football data and analytics information from service providers.

2. Mobile app permissions

The ABScore app may request permission to send notifications so you can receive match alerts, score updates, and other notifications you select. Notification permission is optional and can be changed at any time in your device settings.

If a future app feature requires another device permission, ABScore will request it at the time it is needed and explain its purpose. Denying an optional permission will not prevent use of unrelated features.

3. How we use information

• Provide, personalise, maintain, and improve ABScore and its features.
• Create and manage accounts, remember preferences, and deliver notifications you request.
• Display community contributions and manage prediction rankings and leaderboards.
• Monitor performance, troubleshoot errors, develop features, and understand service usage.
• Detect spam, fraud, abuse, security incidents, and violations of our rules.
• Respond to enquiries, provide support, send important notices, comply with law, and enforce our terms.

4. How we share information

We do not sell your personal information. We may share information in these circumstances:

• Public activity: Your username, profile, posts, comments, predictions, and leaderboard results may be visible to other users and the public.
• Service providers: Vendors may process information for hosting, analytics, crash reporting, notifications, security, customer support, and related services.
• Legal and safety reasons: We may disclose information to comply with law, respond to valid legal process, protect rights and safety, or investigate misuse.
• Business changes: Information may transfer as part of a merger, acquisition, financing, reorganisation, or sale of assets, subject to appropriate safeguards.
• With your direction: We may share information when you request or consent to it.

5. Your choices and rights

You can update certain profile details, favourite teams, and notification preferences within ABScore. You may disable push notifications through your device settings and manage website cookies through your browser.

Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing, or receive a portable copy of your personal information. You may also withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

To make a privacy request, contact feedback@abscore.com. To delete an account, follow the steps on our Account Deletion page. We may verify your identity. Some information may be retained where required by law or for legitimate security, fraud-prevention, or record-keeping purposes.

6. Data retention and security

We retain personal information only as long as reasonably necessary to provide the service, fulfil the purposes in this policy, resolve disputes, maintain security, and meet legal requirements. Retention periods depend on the information and why we hold it.

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and organisational safeguards designed to protect personal information. No transmission or storage method is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

7. Children's privacy

ABScore is intended for users aged 18 and above. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided personal information to us, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

8. International data transfers

ABScore and its service providers may process information in countries other than the country where you live. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards for international transfers and handle information according to applicable data protection law.

9. Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes to our services, practices, or legal obligations. We will post the revised policy here and update the effective date. Where required, we will provide additional notice or request consent.
