Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to the Futbrix app (the "Application") for mobile devices, developed by Futbrix (the "Service Provider") as a Free service. This service is provided "AS IS".

Effective Date: 2026-01-01

Data and Content Accuracy

The Application provides sports results and statistical data ("Content") as part of its service. This Content is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis and is aggregated from independent third-party sources.

The Service Provider strives to keep the Application useful and reliable; however, because we depend on third-party data providers, the Service Provider does not warrant and cannot guarantee the absolute accuracy, completeness, timeliness, or reliability of any Content shown in the Application.

Your reliance on Content is at your own discretion and risk. We strongly recommend verifying any critical information (such as match times or results) with official sources. The Service Provider accepts no liability for any direct or indirect loss arising from reliance on Content or Application functionality.

For the avoidance of doubt, Content in this Application is independently sourced and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by, or specifically approved by platform providers such as Apple Inc. or Google LLC. Those platform providers are not responsible for Content accuracy.

What information does the Application obtain and how is it used?

The Application may collect user-provided and automatically collected data.

User Provided Information

The Application acquires information you provide when you download and register. Registration is not mandatory, but some features (such as Community features) may be unavailable without an account.

When you use Community features, the Service Provider collects content you create, upload, or receive from others, including:

• Profile information (such as username and avatar)
• User-Generated Content (UGC), including text posts, comments, images, and videos

We use this information to operate, maintain, and provide Application functionality, including account services, moderation, and direct communications such as email messages and push notifications.

Community Guidelines and Content Moderation

Because the Application includes a user community, strict UGC policies apply:

• Zero Tolerance Policy: Objectionable and abusive content is prohibited, including defamatory, discriminatory, pornographic, violent, or illegal content.
• Reporting and Blocking: Users can flag content and block abusive users from within the feed.
• Content Review: Reported content is reviewed and action is typically taken within 24 hours. Actions may include content removal and account suspension.
• Automated and Manual Filtering: We use automated and manual processes to detect and remove objectionable material.

Automatically Collected Information

The Application may automatically collect information such as:

• Mobile device type
• Unique device ID
• IP address
• Mobile operating system
• Mobile internet browser type
• Information about how you use the Application

Does the Application collect precise real-time location information?

No. This Application does not collect precise location information from your mobile device.

Do third parties see and/or have access to information obtained by the Application?

Yes, where necessary to operate the service. We may share data with trusted processors that perform services on our behalf (for example, hosting, analytics, crash reporting, authentication, and content delivery), subject to contractual safeguards.

The Application uses third-party technical services that have their own privacy policies:

• Google Play Services
• Google Analytics for Firebase
• Firebase Crashlytics

The Service Provider may disclose User Provided and Automatically Collected Information:

• As required by law (for example, to comply with a subpoena or legal process)
• When disclosure is necessary in good faith to protect rights, safety, investigate fraud, or respond to lawful government requests
• To trusted service providers acting under our instructions and contractual obligations

We do not sell personal data.

UK GDPR: Legal Basis for Processing

Where UK data protection law applies, we rely on one or more of the following legal bases:

• Contract performance: To provide requested services, account functionality, and community features
• Legitimate interests: To secure, maintain, improve, and analyze the Application, and to moderate abuse
• Consent: For optional push notifications and certain tracking technologies where consent is required
• Legal obligations: To comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements

International Data Transfers

Your data may be processed in countries outside the UK, including countries where our service providers operate (for example, the United States and other jurisdictions).

When we transfer personal data internationally, we use appropriate safeguards as required by law, such as:

• UK adequacy regulations, where available
• UK International Data Transfer Agreement (IDTA)
• UK Addendum to the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs)

Third-party recipient categories may include cloud hosting providers, authentication providers, analytics providers, crash-reporting providers, and moderation/support tooling providers.

Cookies and Tracking Technologies

Although the Application is primarily mobile, cookies or similar technologies may be used:

• On our website and web-based surfaces
• In embedded web content (such as WebView, where applicable)
• By analytics and service SDKs

These technologies are used for security, sign-in/session continuity, analytics, and service performance.

You can manage tracking through:

• Browser cookie settings (for website usage)
• Device-level privacy settings (for app tracking permissions where supported)
• In-app settings where available

Push Notifications and Preference Management

If you enable notifications, we may use a push notification token and related preference settings to send alerts.

You can manage notification preferences through:

• In-app controls under Settings > Notifications (if available in your app version)
• Android device settings: Settings > Apps > Futbrix > Notifications
• iOS device settings: Settings > Notifications > Futbrix

Disabling notifications does not delete your account data; it only stops notification delivery.

User Rights: Deletion and Management

You can manage your data in the Application:

• Account Deletion: You can request account deletion from Application settings. Personal profile and authentication data will be removed from active systems, subject to legal and security retention requirements.
• Content Deletion: You can delete UGC (posts, comments, images, videos) that you publish. Deleted content is removed from public view promptly.
• Opt-out: You can stop further app-side collection by uninstalling the Application.

UK GDPR Rights

Where UK GDPR applies, you may have rights to:

• Access your personal data
• Correct inaccurate data
• Request deletion
• Restrict processing
• Object to processing
• Data portability
• Withdraw consent (where processing is consent-based)
• Lodge a complaint with the UK Information Commissioner's Office (ICO)

To exercise rights, contact us at support@futbrix.com. We may need to verify your identity before fulfilling requests.

Data Retention Policy

The Service Provider retains User Provided data for as long as you use the Application and for a reasonable period afterward. Automatically Collected data is typically retained for up to 24 months and may then be stored in aggregated form.

If you want us to delete User Provided data, contact support@futbrix.com. Some data may be retained where necessary for legal, security, fraud-prevention, or legitimate business purposes.

Children

The Service Provider does not knowingly solicit data from, or market to, children under 13 years of age.

The Application is not directed to children under 13. If the Service Provider discovers that a child under 13 has provided personal information, the Service Provider will promptly delete that information from active systems. If you are a parent or guardian and believe your child has provided personal information, contact support@futbrix.com.

Security

The Service Provider is concerned about safeguarding the confidentiality and integrity of your information. We use physical, electronic, and procedural safeguards to protect information we process and maintain. Access is limited to authorized personnel and contractors who need the information to operate, develop, or improve the Application. Although we endeavor to provide reasonable security, no system can prevent all potential security breaches.
