Cookie Policy

Current state

Google AdSense is installed on United Matchday under publisher ID ca-pub-3907712830422560, so Google's advertising script loads on public pages and may set cookies or read device identifiers. No display ad units are configured yet, so no advertisements are currently being shown. We run no third-party analytics tracker. The categories below describe every kind of storage the site uses today.

1. Essential storage

Required for the site to work: request routing, security protection and basic error reporting handled by our hosting provider. These cannot be switched off without breaking the site, and they are not used to profile you.

2. Preferences

Local storage in your browser remembers choices you make in interactive features — for example graphics quality, sound and camera settings in the penalty shootout game. This data stays on your device and is never sent to us.

3. Analytics

We do not run a third-party analytics tracker. Our hosting and database providers keep standard server logs (IP address, browser type, requested page) for reliability and abuse prevention.

4. Advertising

Google AdSense advertising technology is installed (publisher ID ca-pub-3907712830422560). Google and its advertising partners may use cookies, device identifiers or similar technologies for purposes such as ad delivery, frequency control, measurement, fraud prevention and security, and advertising personalisation where permitted and consented to.

Whether any advertising storage is actually used on a given visit depends on your geographic location, your consent choices, your browser and device settings, Google's configuration and whether an eligible advertisement is requested at all. No display ad units are configured today, so no advertisements are being shown. Advertising is never placed on automated story trackers, legal pages, or search and utility pages. Future advertising may be personalised, non-personalised or limited depending on those same factors. See how Google uses advertising data and the Privacy Policy.

5. Consent storage

Consent for advertising and measurement is handled by Google's certified consent solution (AdSense Privacy & messaging), not by a custom banner. When it is shown, a single record of your choice is stored in your browser so you are not asked repeatedly and so your choice can be passed to advertising partners.

6. Your choices

You can clear or block cookies and local storage in your browser settings at any time. Blocking essential storage may break parts of the site. Questions go through the contact form.
