This Privacy Policy explains how Correct-Score.VIP ("we", "our", "us") handles personal information when you use correct-score.vip (the "Service"). By continuing to use the Service, you agree to the practices described below.
1 What We Collect
Information You Provide Directly
If you create a VIP member account and log in, the following information may reach us:
- Email address — for account access, login, and important service notices
- Username or display name — chosen by you to identify your member account
- Membership status — used to verify which VIP access tier your account holds
Information Collected Automatically
When you visit any page on the Service, our servers and analytics tools automatically log:
- IP address — for security, abuse prevention, and basic geographic analytics
- Browser and device information — type, version, operating system, screen size
- Pages viewed and session duration — to understand which content is most useful
- Referring URL — the page or search engine that brought you to the site
- Approximate location — city/country level only, derived from your IP address
What We Don't Collect
- ❌ Credit card numbers or banking details
- ❌ Government-issued identification
- ❌ Phone numbers
- ❌ Precise GPS or location data
- ❌ Health, biometric, or sensitive personal data
2 How We Use It
The data we collect is used only for clearly defined purposes:
- Running the Service — serving pages, predictions, and content based on your access level
- Security and abuse prevention — blocking automated scraping, brute-force attempts, and fraudulent activity
- VIP account management — verifying your login and providing the correct level of access
- Service improvement — understanding which pages, sports, and prediction markets visitors actually use
- Communications — sending essential account or service notices (we don't send marketing spam)
- Legal compliance — meeting any obligations under applicable data protection laws
We do not sell, rent, trade, or otherwise hand your personal data to third-party advertisers or data brokers. Full stop.
3 Cookies & Tracking
We use cookies and similar technologies sparingly. Here's exactly what's on the site:
Essential Cookies
- Session cookies — keep you logged in to your VIP account during a visit
- Security tokens — protect against cross-site request forgery (CSRF) attacks
- Preference cookies — remember basic interface choices you make on the site
Analytics
We may use anonymised analytics to understand site usage at an aggregate level — total visitors, popular pages, time on page, and similar metrics. These tools do not identify you personally.
Third-Party Cookies
The support chat widget and our security/caching layer may each set their own cookies. These are governed by the cookie and privacy policies of those services.
Managing Cookies
You can block or delete cookies through your browser settings. Note that disabling essential cookies will break login functionality and some interactive features.
4 Third-Party Services
We rely on a small number of third-party providers to keep the Service running. Each is governed by its own privacy practices:
- Security & delivery network — provides DDoS protection, caching, and SSL encryption for the site.
- Support chat widget — powers the chat box in the bottom-right corner of every page so you can reach us.
- Analytics provider — gives us aggregate, anonymised usage statistics about how the site is used.
- Sports data providers — we license fixtures, statistics, and head-to-head records from established sports data services. These providers do not receive any of your personal information.
We don't control how these external services operate, and we recommend reviewing their own policies separately.
5 Storage & Security
We take reasonable, industry-standard steps to protect personal data:
- HTTPS encryption on every page — all traffic between you and the Service is encrypted in transit
- Hashed credentials — passwords are stored using one-way bcrypt hashing; we cannot recover them, only reset
- Rate limiting — repeated failed logins and abusive request patterns are automatically throttled
- Server-side input validation — all user-supplied data is sanitised before it reaches our database
- Access controls — only authorised team members can reach account data, and only when needed for support
We follow current best practices, but no online system is ever completely impervious. If a security incident affecting your data ever occurred, we'd notify you promptly and clearly.
6 Your Data Rights
If you live in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or any region with comparable data protection laws (such as GDPR, UK GDPR, or California's CCPA), you have the following rights:
- Access — ask for a copy of the personal data we hold about you
- Correction — request that inaccurate or outdated information be fixed
- Deletion — request that we remove your account and associated personal data
- Restriction — limit how we process your information in specific circumstances
- Portability — receive a machine-readable copy of your data
- Objection — object to certain types of processing, including any direct marketing
- Withdraw consent — withdraw any consent you previously gave, at any time
To exercise any of these rights, contact us through the chat icon on any page. We respond to all valid requests within 30 days, in line with GDPR requirements.
7 Children's Privacy
Correct-Score.VIP is intended exclusively for users aged 18 and over. Sports betting is restricted to adults in nearly every jurisdiction worldwide, and our content is built on that assumption.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 18. If you become aware that a minor has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately and we'll delete it without delay.
8 Data Retention
We hold personal information only for as long as it's actually needed:
- Active VIP accounts — retained for the duration of your membership, plus a short grace period after cancellation
- Inactive accounts — automatically removed after 12 months of no login activity
- Server access logs — kept for up to 90 days for security and troubleshooting
- Anonymised analytics — may be retained longer in aggregated, non-identifiable form
When you formally request deletion, we remove your personal data within 30 days, except where retention is required by law (for example, records that must be kept for tax or audit purposes).
9 Changes to This Policy
We may revise this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, integrated services, or legal requirements. The "Last updated" date at the top of the page always reflects the current version.
For substantial changes — anything that meaningfully affects how your data is handled — we'll display a clear notice on the site and, where applicable, contact registered VIP members directly. Continuing to use the Service after a change is published means you accept the revised terms.
