Privacy Policy
This Privacy Policy explains how Master Football Tipster collects, uses, protects, shares, retains, and deletes personal information through our website, account areas, paid-access features, and related services.
1. Who We Are
Master Football Tipster ("MFT") operates the football prediction and analysis service available at masterfootballtipster.com. For privacy questions or requests, contact support@masterfootballtipster.com.
2. Information We Collect
Depending on how you use MFT, we may collect the following categories of personal information:
- Name, username, email address, and account details.
- Login, authentication, and account-security information.
- Purchase records, access status, product or membership information, and transaction references.
- Support messages and other information you choose to send to us.
- Technical information such as IP address, browser, device type, operating system, approximate location derived from IP, pages viewed, referring pages, and timestamps.
- Cookie identifiers, consent preferences, and analytics information where applicable.
3. Payment Information
Payments may be processed by third-party payment providers such as PayPal. MFT does not store full payment-card numbers or complete card credentials on the website. Payment providers may process identity, transaction, fraud-prevention, and payment information under their own privacy policies.
4. Why We Use Personal Information
We may use personal information to:
- Create, authenticate, secure, and manage user accounts.
- Provide access to Free Picks, Premium content, the current MFT 3.00 Combo, MFT 13 Match Challenge editions, and other site features.
- Process purchases and maintain records of access rights.
- Provide customer support and respond to account, access, or payment questions.
- Send essential transactional, security, account, or service communications.
- Measure site usage, improve performance, detect abuse, and protect the service.
- Meet accounting, tax, legal, fraud-prevention, and compliance obligations.
- Send promotional communications where permitted by law and where the required consent or other lawful basis exists.
5. Legal Bases for Processing
Where data-protection law requires a legal basis, MFT relies on one or more of the following, depending on the processing activity:
- Contract: when processing is necessary to create an account, process a purchase, provide paid access, or deliver requested support.
- Legal obligation: when records must be kept for accounting, tax, fraud-prevention, or other legal requirements.
- Legitimate interests: for reasonable security, fraud prevention, service improvement, troubleshooting, and protection of MFT, provided those interests do not override applicable user rights.
- Consent: where consent is required, including certain marketing or non-essential cookie/analytics activities.
6. Cookies and Similar Technologies
MFT may use cookies and similar technologies for login sessions, security, account functionality, language or preference settings, cart and checkout functions, performance, and analytics.
Strictly necessary cookies may be required for the website, account, or checkout to function. Analytics or other non-essential technologies are subject to applicable consent requirements. Where consent is required by law, users should be able to accept or refuse non-essential cookies without losing access to basic website functions.
You can also manage or delete cookies through your browser settings. Blocking necessary cookies may prevent login, checkout, or other account features from working correctly.
7. Analytics and Technical Data
MFT may use website analytics and performance tools to understand traffic, page usage, device information, and site performance. Analytics providers may receive technical identifiers such as IP address, browser information, device data, and cookie or measurement identifiers in accordance with their own privacy terms and the consent choices available to the user.
8. Email Communications
We may send essential emails relating to registration, password setup, purchases, access, account security, support, or service changes. These transactional messages are necessary to operate the service.
Promotional emails, such as Free Pick updates or marketing messages, are handled separately from essential service messages. Where applicable law requires consent, promotional emails will be sent only when the required permission has been obtained. Users may unsubscribe from promotional communications without losing essential account or transaction emails.
9. How We Share Information
We do not sell personal information. We may disclose limited information to service providers that help us operate MFT, such as:
- Website hosting, infrastructure, security, and backup providers.
- Payment and fraud-prevention providers.
- Email-delivery and customer-support providers.
- Analytics and performance providers, where permitted.
- Professional advisers or public authorities where disclosure is legally required.
Service providers are expected to process information only for the purposes necessary to provide their services or as otherwise permitted by law.
10. International Data Transfers
Some hosting, payment, analytics, email, or technology providers may process information in countries different from the user's country. Where applicable law requires safeguards for international transfers, the relevant provider or MFT will rely on an appropriate legal transfer mechanism.
11. Data Security
We use reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal information, including HTTPS encryption in transit and account-access controls. No internet service can guarantee absolute security, and users are responsible for protecting their passwords and devices.
12. How Long We Keep Information
We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including account administration, delivery of paid access, customer support, security, fraud prevention, dispute resolution, accounting, tax, and legal obligations.
Account information may be retained while an account remains active. After an account-deletion request, information will be deleted or anonymized unless a longer retention period is required or justified for legal, tax, accounting, security, fraud-prevention, or dispute purposes.
13. Your Privacy Rights
Depending on your location and applicable law, you may have rights to:
- Request access to personal information held about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate or incomplete information.
- Request deletion of personal information.
- Request restriction of certain processing.
- Object to certain processing based on legitimate interests or direct marketing.
- Request portability of information where the right applies.
- Withdraw consent at any time where processing is based on consent, without affecting processing that was lawful before withdrawal.
- Complain to an applicable data-protection supervisory authority.
These rights may be subject to legal exceptions. To make a privacy request, contact support@masterfootballtipster.com.
14. Account Deletion
Users may request deletion through our Account Deletion page or by contacting support@masterfootballtipster.com. We may need to verify the request before deleting or anonymizing account data. Certain transaction or security records may be retained when required or permitted by law.
15. Automated Decision-Making
MFT does not currently use personal information to make solely automated decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects on users.
16. Age Restriction
MFT is intended for users aged 18 or older. The service is not directed to children, and we do not knowingly seek to collect personal information from children through the football prediction service.
17. Third-Party Websites and Services
MFT may link to payment providers, social platforms, bookmakers, or other external services. Those third parties operate under their own privacy policies and are responsible for their own processing practices.
18. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when our services, technologies, providers, or legal obligations change. The current version will be posted on this page with a revised "Last Updated" date.
