This Privacy Policy explains how CrickRate (“CrickRate”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website (the “Service”). We aim to collect only what we need to run the Service and to be clear about what that is.
1. Information We Collect
Today, CrickRate collects limited information:
- Newsletter sign-up: if you submit your email address to subscribe to match recaps or news updates, we store that email address to send you those updates.
- Usage data: like most websites, our hosting and analytics providers may automatically collect standard technical information such as your IP address, browser type, device type, pages visited, and referring URLs, typically via cookies or similar technologies. This helps us understand how the Service is used and keep it running reliably.
We do not currently require account registration, and we do not collect sensitive personal information (such as payment details, government IDs, or precise location) through the Service.
2. How We Use Information
We use the information described above to:
- Send newsletter emails to those who have subscribed;
- Operate, maintain, and improve the Service;
- Understand aggregate usage patterns and diagnose technical issues;
- Comply with legal obligations where applicable.
We do not sell your personal information to third parties.
3. Cookies
Cookies and similar technologies may be used to remember your preferences (such as light/dark theme) and to support basic site analytics. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings; doing so may affect some functionality of the Service.
4. Third-Party Services
CrickRate displays live scores, match data, and news content sourced from third-party cricket data and news providers. These providers operate independently and may have their own data practices for the content they supply to us. This Privacy Policy covers only CrickRate's own collection and use of information — it does not cover the practices of external sites linked from the Service, including our Instagram and YouTube pages, which are governed by those platforms' own privacy policies.
5. Data Retention
We retain newsletter email addresses for as long as you remain subscribed. You may unsubscribe at any time using the link provided in our emails or by contacting us directly, after which we will remove your email from our mailing list within a reasonable period.
6. Children's Privacy
The Service is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can remove it.
7. Your Choices
You may unsubscribe from our newsletter at any time, and you may disable cookies through your browser. If you would like to request access to, correction of, or deletion of any personal information we hold about you, please contact us using the details below.
8. Changes to This Policy
As CrickRate adds new features — such as user accounts, comments, or advertising — this Privacy Policy will be updated to reflect any new categories of information collected or new ways it is used. We will update the “Last updated” date above whenever this policy changes, and encourage you to review it periodically.
