How We Use Your Information

We do not use your information to send unsolicited marketing emails. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

How We Share Information

We share information only in limited circumstances:

• Service providers. We work with hosting providers, analytics services (such as Google Analytics), and email tools that may process data on our behalf.
• Advertising partners. Third-party advertisers and affiliate networks may use cookies to serve ads relevant to your interests. See the Cookies section below.
• Legal compliance. We may disclose information if required by law, subpoena, or to protect our legal rights or the safety of others.
• Business transfers. If SportsScores is acquired, merged, or sold, your information may be transferred to the new owner under the same privacy commitments.

Cookies & Tracking

Our site uses cookies — small text files stored on your device — to make the site work properly and to understand how it is used.

Types of Cookies We Use

• Essential cookies. Required for the site to function (such as remembering your preferences).
• Analytics cookies. Help us understand which pages are visited most, how long users stay, and how to improve the site.
• Advertising cookies. Set by third-party advertisers and affiliate partners to measure ad performance and serve more relevant content.

Managing Cookies

You can disable cookies in your browser settings, though some site features may not work correctly. To opt out of personalized advertising specifically, visit the Digital Advertising Alliance opt-out page or use your browser's "Do Not Track" setting.

Affiliate Links & Third Parties

SportsScores.com contains links to third-party sites including sportsbooks, ticket marketplaces, retailers, fantasy platforms, and streaming services. Some of these are affiliate links — meaning we may earn a commission when you click a link and complete a purchase or registration. This does not change the price you pay.

We are not responsible for the privacy practices, data collection, or content of third-party sites. Once you leave SportsScores.com, the privacy policy of the destination site governs how your information is handled.
