The data controller responsible for personal information processed through MyVirtualScore is Igor Sprintchan, Ukraine (contact@myvirtualscore.com).

This Privacy Policy explains our data practices, including website analytics, cookies, and our planned user registration and Google Sign-In functionality.

1. Information We Collect

MyVirtualScore provides football statistics, league information, match schedules, results, and related sports content.

Visitors can currently browse the website without creating an account.

When you visit our website, certain technical information may be collected automatically, including:

• Browser type and version.
• Device type and operating system.
• Pages visited and interactions with the website.

This information is used to maintain website functionality, improve performance, understand website usage, and protect the website against security threats.

2. Google Sign-In and User Accounts

MyVirtualScore is developing user registration and authentication functionality, including the ability to sign in using a Google account.

Once Google Sign-In becomes available, users who choose this authentication method will be able to authorize MyVirtualScore to access limited information from their Google account.

This information will be used to:

• Provide access to registered-user features.
• Associate account information with the correct user.

MyVirtualScore will not receive or store your Google account password.

Google authentication information will not be used to access Gmail messages, Google Drive files, contacts, or other unrelated Google services.

We will request only the permissions necessary to provide authentication and account functionality.

Users will be able to request access to or deletion of their personal account information by contacting contact@myvirtualscore.com.

Google Sign-In is currently under development. This section describes the intended processing of account information once the feature is launched.

3. Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC, to understand how visitors interact with our website.

Google Analytics may use cookies and similar technologies to collect information about website traffic, visitor interactions, and technical characteristics.

We use this information to:

• Understand website traffic and usage patterns.
• Identify popular football leagues and pages.
• Improve website performance and navigation.
• Enhance the overall visitor experience.

4. Cookies and Similar Technologies

MyVirtualScore may use cookies and similar technologies to support website functionality and analyze visitor activity.

These technologies may include:

Essential cookies

Cookies necessary for website operation, security, and technical functionality. These include:

• A session cookie used for security purposes, such as protecting forms against misuse. It expires when you close your browser.
• mvs_consent — stores your cookie choice for 12 months.

Once user registration becomes available, essential cookies may also be used to maintain authenticated user sessions.

Analytics cookies

Cookies associated with Google Analytics that help us understand how visitors interact with the website.

Analytics cookies are set only after you click “Accept” in the cookie banner shown on your first visit. Until then, or if you click “Reject”, Google Analytics runs without cookies and receives only limited, non-identifying signals (Google Consent Mode).

Visitors may manage or delete cookies through their browser settings.

You can change your choice at any time using the “Cookie settings” link at the bottom of every page. If you withdraw consent, Google Analytics cookies set by our website are removed.

Disabling certain cookies may affect website functionality.

5. How We Use Information

We process information collected through MyVirtualScore for the following purposes:

• Operating and maintaining the website.
• Providing football statistics and related content.
• Monitoring website performance and technical reliability.
• Understanding visitor engagement.
• Improving website usability and navigation.
• Detecting and preventing fraud, abuse, and security incidents.
• Complying with applicable legal obligations.

Once registration functionality becomes available, personal information may additionally be used to create accounts, authenticate users, and provide registered-user services.

We do not currently use Google AdSense or operate a personalized advertising program.

6. Legal Bases for Processing

Where the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) or similar laws apply, we rely on the following legal bases:

• Performance of a contract — creating and maintaining a user account and authenticating users, including sign-in with Google.
• Legitimate interests — operating, maintaining, and securing the website, including server logs, protection against abuse, and limiting repeated failed sign-in attempts.
• Consent — analytics cookies (Google Analytics), where consent is required by applicable law. Consent can be withdrawn at any time.
• Legal obligations — where processing is necessary to comply with applicable law.

7. Third-Party Services

MyVirtualScore may use third-party service providers for website hosting, technical infrastructure, football data, analytics, and authentication.

These services may include:

Google Analytics

Used to measure website traffic and understand visitor interactions.

Google Sign-In (planned)

Will be used to authenticate users who choose to sign in using their Google account.

Google Sign-In is provided by Google LLC and is subject to Google's applicable privacy policies.

Hosting and infrastructure providers

May process technical information, including IP addresses and server access logs, as necessary to deliver, maintain, and secure the website.

Football data providers

We do not sell personal information collected through MyVirtualScore.

Personal information may be shared with service providers where necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or where required by law.

8. Data Retention

We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, subject to applicable legal requirements.

Retention periods may vary depending on the type of information and the service involved.

Technical and security logs may be retained for operational, troubleshooting, and security purposes.

Specific retention periods currently include:

• Web server access logs: up to 14 days.
• Security logs used to block abusive traffic: up to 4 weeks.

• Account information: while the account remains active; deleted or anonymized within 30 days of a valid deletion request, unless longer retention is required by law.

Analytics data is retained according to the applicable Google Analytics configuration and data retention settings.

Once user accounts become available, account information will generally be retained while the account remains active or as otherwise necessary for legitimate operational and legal purposes.

Users may request deletion of their personal account information by contacting contact@myvirtualscore.com.

Following a valid deletion request, applicable personal information will be deleted or anonymized unless continued retention is necessary to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, or address legitimate security requirements.

9. International Data Processing

Some third-party service providers, including Google, may process information in countries outside the visitor's country of residence.

Where required by applicable data protection laws, appropriate safeguards will be applied to international transfers of personal information.

These measures may include secure HTTPS connections, access restrictions, authentication controls, and server security monitoring.

Access to personal information is intended to be limited to authorized persons and systems that require it for legitimate operational purposes.

However, no method of internet transmission or electronic storage can be guaranteed to be completely secure.

12. Children's Privacy

MyVirtualScore provides general football information and is not specifically directed at children.
