Privacy Policy

Cricado (“we”, “our”, “us”) operates the website cricado.com and the Cricado mobile application (together, the “Service”). We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting the personal data you share with us. By using the Service you agree to the practices described in this policy.

Information we collect

• Account information — such as your name and email address when you register, sign in, or contact support.
• Usage data — pages and matches you view, features you use, links you click, and general interaction with live scores and content.
• Device & technical data — browser type, device type, operating system, app version, approximate location (from IP address), language, and referring pages.
• Cookies & similar technologies — used to remember preferences, measure traffic, and serve advertising (see “Cookies and advertising” below).
• Push notification tokens — if you enable match alerts in the app, we store a device token to deliver notifications.
• Tournament & match activity — data you submit when organizing leagues, scoring matches, or participating in events.

How we use information

• Provide live cricket scores, scorecards, commentary, fixtures, standings, and related features.
• Authenticate your account and keep the Service secure.
• Send optional push notifications about matches and product updates (you can disable these any time).
• Display and measure advertising, including ads served by Google.
• Analyze performance, diagnose issues, prevent abuse, and improve the product.
• Comply with legal obligations and enforce our terms.

Cookies and advertising

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate the site, understand usage, and show ads. We use Google Analytics to measure traffic and Google AdSense (and, in the app, Google AdMob) to serve advertising.

• Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this and other websites.
• Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to users based on their visit to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
• You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings. You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at aboutads.info.
• You can manage or disable cookies in your browser settings, though some features may not work as intended.

Third-party services

We rely on trusted providers that may process limited data on our behalf, including:

• Google Analytics (usage measurement)
• Google AdSense and Google AdMob (advertising)
• Google Firebase (messaging and app infrastructure)
• Cloud hosting and content delivery providers

These partners process data under their own privacy policies. You can review Google's Privacy Policy and how Google uses information from sites that use its services.

Data retention & security

We retain information only as long as needed to provide the Service, comply with the law, or resolve disputes. We use encryption in transit (HTTPS) and industry-standard safeguards for stored data. No method of transmission over the internet is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Your rights

Depending on where you live, you may have the right to:

• Access, correct, or delete personal data we hold about you
• Withdraw consent for optional processing such as marketing notifications
• Request a copy of your data or object to certain processing
• Lodge a complaint with your local data protection authority

To make a request, email [email protected]. We will respond within a reasonable time.

Children's privacy

Cricado is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us data, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this policy from time to time. The “Last updated” date above will change when we do. Continued use of the Service after changes means you accept the updated policy.
