Privacy Policy

1. Introduction & Commitment to Privacy

Last Updated: October 2026. BGIBOLA (“we”, “our”, or “us”) operates bgibola.org. We are deeply committed to protecting the privacy, digital security, and personal integrity of every visitor. Our platform is built from the ground up on a privacy-by-design architecture: we believe that sports fans should be able to check match fixtures, discover legal broadcast options, and audit link security without sacrificing their personal privacy or digital autonomy.

2. Minimal Data Philosophy & Zero Account Requirements

Unlike commercial portals that monetize user data, BGIBOLA does not require user account registration, social media logins, email submissions, or payment information to access any tool or directory. You can use our Match Finder, Link Safety Checker, Matchday Planner, APK Checker, and Streaming Calculator completely anonymously.

3. Information We Collect & How It Is Handled

1

Standard Server Logs

When you visit bgibola.org, our web servers automatically log standard network telemetry: your IP address, browser user-agent, operating system, requested page URL, and timestamp. These logs are used strictly for operational security, server performance monitoring, and mitigating DDoS attacks.

2

Log Retention Period

Raw server logs are retained for a maximum of 30 days before automated irreversible rotation and deletion. We never correlate server log records with individual human identities or commercial marketing databases.

3

Tool Input Processing

When you submit a URL to the Link Safety Checker or an APK package identifier to the APK Checker, the input is analyzed server-side in real time memory. We do not store, catalog, or sell user-submitted URLs to advertising networks or third-party data brokers.

4. Cookies & Local Browser Storage

We believe in minimal, purposeful cookie usage. BGIBOLA does not deploy invasive cross-site tracking cookies, behavioral profiling beacons, or third-party advertising cookies.

  • Strictly Necessary Technical Cookies: Standard session cookies required for core server load balancing, security firewalls, and CSRF protection.
  • Client-Side LocalStorage: If you use our Matchday Planner tool to save favorite matches, your saved fixtures are stored exclusively on your device’s browser using HTML5 localStorage. This data never leaves your device and is not transmitted to our servers.

5. Legal Bases for Processing under GDPR

For visitors residing within the European Economic Area (EEA) and the United Kingdom, we process operational technical data under the following lawful bases pursuant to Article 6 of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR):

  • Legitimate Interests (Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR): Processing server logs to detect security threats, maintain network resilience, prevent abusive automated scraping, and ensure continuous availability of public sports safety tools.
  • Compliance with Legal Obligations (Art. 6(1)(c) GDPR): Retaining operational records where required by applicable telecommunications or cyber protection statutory standards.

6. Your Data Protection Rights

Under applicable international privacy regulations (including GDPR, UK Data Protection Act, and California Consumer Privacy Act CCPA), you possess specific privacy rights:

  • The right to request confirmation of whether personal data concerning you is processed.
  • The right to request erasure of personal data under statutory grounds.
  • The right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory data protection authority in your country of residence.
