1. Who This Policy Applies To
This Privacy Policy explains how the publisher of Zoccer ("we", "us", "our") processes personal data of visitors to this website. Zoccer is an editorial and affiliate site - we do not operate a sportsbook, hold player funds or settle bets. When you click a "Bet Now" or affiliate link you are forwarded to a regulated operator that runs its own privacy policy and data controls.
2. Data We Collect Directly
- Technical data: IP address, device type, browser, operating system, referral URL, language preference, session timestamps.
- Usage data: pages viewed, sportsbook reviews opened, outbound affiliate clicks, scroll depth, time on page.
- Contact data: if you email us (editorial@, privacy@, partnerships@), we receive your message and any details you choose to share.
- Newsletter data: email address and consent timestamp if you opt in to betting tips or odds alerts.
- Cookie data: see Section 6 below.
We do not collect ID documents, payment information, betting history or wallet balances. Those are held by the licensed sportsbook you sign up with.
3. Why We Process Your Data
- To deliver the website and keep it secure (legitimate interest).
- To measure which reviews and guides are useful so we can improve them (legitimate interest).
- To track outbound clicks for affiliate reporting and revenue accounting (legitimate interest, contractual necessity with our partners).
- To send newsletter content where you have opted in (consent).
- To respond to your emails and editorial corrections (legitimate interest).
- To comply with applicable law, including responding to lawful requests from regulators (legal obligation).
4. Sharing With Third Parties
- Sportsbook operators: when you click an affiliate link, the operator may receive a tracking parameter so it can attribute your sign-up to Zoccer. We do not share your name, email or browsing history.
- Analytics providers: aggregated, pseudonymised usage data, with IP truncation enabled.
- Email platform: if you subscribe, your email address is stored with our newsletter provider.
- Hosting and CDN: standard infrastructure providers process traffic to keep the site online.
- We do not sell personal data and we do not allow our analytics or hosting providers to use your data for their own marketing.
5. International Transfers
Some of our service providers operate outside your country. Where data leaves the EEA or UK, we rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or an adequacy decision. You can request a copy of the relevant safeguard by emailing [email protected].
6. Cookies
Zoccer uses three categories of cookies:
- Essential: language preference, age-gate confirmation, security tokens. Always on.
- Analytics: anonymous page views, scroll depth, click-through rate. Off until you accept.
- Affiliate attribution: identifies which page on Zoccer referred your click to a sportsbook. Active only when you click an outbound link.
You can change your choice at any time using the "Cookie Preferences" link in the footer or by clearing cookies in your browser.
7. Your Rights
If you live in the EEA, UK, Switzerland or another jurisdiction with comparable rules, you can:
- Request access to the personal data we hold about you.
- Request correction of inaccurate data.
- Request erasure of your data, subject to legal record-keeping rules.

- Server logs: 14 days, then aggregated.

9. Children
Zoccer is intended for adults of legal betting age in their jurisdiction (18+ or 21+ depending on the country). We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe a minor has interacted with this site, contact us and we will remove the data.
