What we collect without asking
Page views and a handful of interactions (unit switches, theme, filters, shares, alert sign-ups) are recorded by our own first-party analytics. Each visit gets a random session id that lives only in your browser tab and is discarded when you close it. We store the page path, the referring site, a device class (phone, tablet or desktop), the country reported by our hosting provider and a truncated browser string. We do not store your IP address, and we set no analytics cookies. These records are deleted after 90 days.
What loads only if you allow it
Google Analytics and Google AdSense are optional. They load only after you choose "Allow" on the consent notice; "No thanks" keeps them off and we remember that choice in your browser. Where consent is required by law they never load without it. Both services set their own cookies and are governed by Google's privacy policy.
Push alerts
If you turn on game-day alerts we store the push subscription your browser generates (an endpoint URL and two encryption keys) together with your preferences: the teams you follow, whether you follow Top 25 games, and which alert types you want. There is no account. A management token saved in your browser lets you change or delete the subscription at any time from the alerts sheet; a subscription the browser has revoked is deleted automatically.
Weekly email
If you subscribe to the weekly email we store your address, the teams you chose (if any) and the time you subscribed. Every email carries an unsubscribe link that works immediately and permanently. We send one email a week during the season and nothing else.
Feedback
Feedback submissions store your message, the page you sent it from, the type you picked and your email address if you chose to leave one. They are read by the person who runs the site and kept until resolved.
Your browser
Your unit and theme preferences, consent choice and push management token live in your browser's local storage and never leave it except as described above.
