Privacy Policy
Last updated: 30 October 2026.
Who we are
Fulltime Stats ("we", "us") is an independent website that publishes statistical football predictions. It is run by its editor, who writes as Leo Tempo (a pen name) and is responsible for this policy. You can reach us at our contact page or by email at contact@fulltimestats.com.
What we collect
We do not ask you to create an account and we do not knowingly collect personal information you type in. We may process:
- Usage data — pages viewed, approximate region, device/browser type, collected through privacy-respecting analytics.
- Cookies and similar technologies — see our Cookie Policy. A preference cookie remembers your light/dark theme and your cookie choices.
- Advertising data — when advertising is enabled, ad partners (e.g. Google AdSense) may set cookies to serve and measure ads. These run only after you consent where consent is required.
- Poll votes — if you vote in a “Who will win?” poll, we store only your choice and the time of the vote. We do not store your IP address, a hash of it, or any identifier, so a vote cannot be linked to you, and only the percentages are ever shown. Your browser keeps a note that it voted on that match so the buttons are not shown again; it holds no identifier and is never sent to us. To keep automated voting out, the vote is checked by Cloudflare Turnstile, from Cloudflare, which already hosts and delivers this site; it runs only when you vote.
How we use it
To operate and improve the site, understand which content is useful, and — where enabled and consented — to show advertising that helps fund the site. We do not sell your personal data.
Third parties
Football data is retrieved by our servers from API-Football (api-sports.io); this happens on our side and does not share your identity with them. If we enable analytics or advertising (e.g. Google), those providers process data under their own privacy policies, subject to your consent.
Advertising
We use Google AdSense to show advertising that helps fund the site. In plain terms:
- Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website or to other websites.
- Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the Internet.
- You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalised advertising at www.aboutads.info.
- How Google uses information from sites that use its services is explained at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
- In the EEA, the UK and Switzerland, ads are personalised only if you consent through Google's certified consent message; without consent, Google may show non-personalised ads, which use cookies only for purposes such as frequency capping, aggregated reporting and fraud prevention. You can change your choice at any time through the cookie settings.
Your rights
Depending on where you live (e.g. under the EU/UK GDPR), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or object to the processing of your personal data, and to withdraw consent for cookies at any time via the cookie settings. Contact us to exercise these rights.
Children
This site is not directed at children under 16 and we do not knowingly collect their data.
Changes
We may update this policy; the "last updated" date above reflects the latest version.
