Privacy Policy

Laws of Sport is a reference publication. Most of the site — sport rules, dimensions, records, glossaries, and articles — is available to browse without creating an account or submitting any personal information.

If you create a free account to bookmark pages, we store the display name and email address you provide. If you use the Contact page, we receive the name, email address, and message you submit so we can reply.

Bookmarks you save are stored locally in your browser and are not linked to any third-party advertising profile.

We use essential cookies/local storage to keep you signed in and remember your bookmarks and reading preferences. These do not track you across other websites.

If third-party advertising is enabled on this site in the future (for example, Google AdSense), those partners may use cookies to serve and measure ads based on your visits to this and other websites. Where required, we will present a consent banner before any non-essential cookie is set, and you will always be able to withdraw consent from your browser's cookie settings.

We may use privacy-respecting analytics tools to understand aggregate traffic patterns — for example, which articles are read most — so we can prioritize what to cover next. Analytics data is used in aggregate and is not used to identify individual visitors.

We use the information described above only to: operate your account and bookmarks, respond to messages sent through the Contact page, maintain and improve the accuracy and coverage of the site, and — where advertising is enabled — support relevant, non-intrusive ad delivery.

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Account information is retained for as long as your account is active. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting us (see below).

We take reasonable technical measures to protect information in transit and at rest, but no method of transmission or storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you, and to object to certain processing. To exercise any of these rights, or if you have questions about this policy, please reach out via the Contact page.

This policy may be updated from time to time as the site evolves; the "last updated" date above reflects the most recent revision.
