Analytics

Usage measurement

With permission, the site uses Google Analytics to understand general traffic patterns, such as which pages are visited and how people move through the site. This helps improve navigation, page coverage, and content quality.

For visitors detected in the United Kingdom, European Economic Area, or Switzerland, Google Analytics is blocked until the visitor accepts analytics. Visitors can reject analytics and continue using the complete website. For visitors elsewhere, analytics loads by default unless a previous rejection is stored. If regional detection fails, analytics remains blocked and the privacy choice is shown.

Advertising storage, advertising user data, advertising personalisation, and Google Signals remain disabled when analytics is enabled. Sport Rules does not currently load advertising scripts.

Cookies

Browser storage

Sport Rules does not use cookies for accounts, shopping carts, or logged-in personalisation. If analytics is accepted or otherwise enabled, Google Analytics may set first-party cookies such as _ga and _ga_*.

The site stores the analytics choice, consent-policy version, and time saved in local browser storage for up to 180 days. The Privacy settings control in the site header reopens the choice. Rejecting after analytics was enabled changes the consent state, removes accessible Google Analytics cookies, and reloads the page without Google Analytics.

External links

Official sources and other sites

Many pages link to official rulebooks, governing bodies, league resources, and other external references. Those sites are controlled by their own operators and have their own privacy policies.

Data use

How information is used

  • To understand which rule topics users find useful.
  • To identify navigation problems and improve page organization.
  • To monitor basic site performance and reliability.

The regional check requests Cloudflare’s same-origin diagnostic endpoint and reads its two-letter country result. Sport Rules does not store that result. Cloudflare already handles site requests as the delivery and security provider. When analytics is enabled, analytics information is sent to Google. Read the Google Privacy Policy and Cloudflare Privacy Policy.

Updates

Policy changes

This privacy policy may be updated as the site changes. The current version applies to your use of Sport Rules from the date it is published.
