Cookie Policy

Cookies: Small text data files placed on your local browser or hardware device by web servers to remember your session data and operational settings.

Web Beacons / Pixels: Hidden electronic micro-graphics embedded inside our outbound newsletter communications or interface frames to track content engagement metrics, such as link click-through sequences and email open intervals.

Essential Platform Cookies: System-critical cookies mandatory for core layout operations. These securely preserve your custom “spoiler-free” user interface selections (such as hiding or revealing scores) as you navigate between dashboard screens.

Performance & Analytics Cookies: Powered by Google Analytics 4 (GA4). These capture aggregated, non-identifying machine metadata regarding page load execution speeds, visit durations, and active user interface navigation paths to guide our platform development.

Affiliate Attribution Cookies: Dropped by commercial affiliate tracking clearinghouses, including but not limited to Impact Radius, CJ Affiliate, and ShareASale. These cookies record pseudo-anonymized transaction timestamps when you click external retail or sportsbook links, ensuring SportsHL receives proper advertising referral commissions.

Targeting & Campaign Pixels: We utilize the TikTok Pixel and associated social platform marketing scripts to evaluate the performance of our user acquisition campaigns and optimize our external brand advertisements.

Third-Party Embedded Media Cookies: Because our layouts feature native, unaltered video embeds via YouTube API Services, Google/YouTube may place tracking assets on your hardware device to manage video streaming bandwidth, track video view counts, and preserve playback performance configurations.

Browser Infrastructure Controls: You maintain the absolute right to refuse, restrict, or wipe tracking cookies by modifying the security settings natively built into your specific web browser application.

Analytics Deactivation: You can permanently isolate your session data from corporate analytics tracking by installing the official Google Analytics Opt-Out Browser Add-on.

Do Not Track Recognition: In complete alignment with our Privacy Policy and state privacy mandates (including CCPA/CPRA), our web infrastructure is configured to respect automated “Do Not Track” or Global Privacy Control (GPC) signals broadcast by your web browser application.

Mobile Ecosystem Settings: Tracking metrics executed inside our native mobile applications are governed by platform-level OS rules. You can restrict or deactivate mobile advertising identifiers (such as Apple’s IDFA) at any time through your native iOS or Android privacy panel settings.
