Privacy Policy

Data Collection

The initial static build does not require user accounts and does not sell tickets. If analytics such as Microsoft Clarity, Plausible or Umami are enabled, this policy must identify the provider, purpose and retention basics.

The site is designed as a static guide. Reading pages does not require registration, a user profile, a checkout flow or a ticket request form. Server logs may still be created by the hosting provider, CDN or security layer for ordinary operational reasons such as availability, abuse prevention, debugging and traffic measurement.

Because the guide is static-first, most pages can be delivered without collecting information directly from the reader. Interactive features such as schedule filters and site search run in the browser against static HTML or a local JSON search index. Those features do not require a third-party search service.

Contact Email

If you email the site operator, the message may include your email address, name, source notes and any information you choose to include. That information is used to review corrections, source updates, image licensing questions or editorial issues. Do not send ticket order details, payment details, passport numbers, private travel documents or confidential personal information.

External Links

The site links to official ticketing, hospitality, broadcaster, host city and venue resources. External sites have their own privacy policies.

External links may lead to FIFA, host cities, venues, broadcasters, federations or other resources that are not controlled by FIFA.us.org. Users should review the destination site's privacy policy, terms and ticketing rules before submitting personal information, payment details or travel information.

Ticket Safety

FIFA.us.org does not sell tickets and should not collect payment information. Ticket pages are informational and should point users toward official resources or explain where official status can be checked. If a future feature changes that behavior, this policy must be updated before launch.

Affiliate or Sponsored Links

Any future paid or affiliate links must be disclosed and marked with sponsored and nofollow relationship attributes.

Analytics and Clarity

The initial build avoids heavy tracking scripts. If Microsoft Clarity, Plausible, Umami or another analytics tool is enabled later, this policy should name the provider, explain the purpose, and describe any cookie or session recording behavior that applies. Analytics should be used to improve navigation, content quality and error discovery, not to sell tickets or create fake urgency.

Advertising

If advertising is added later, the policy should identify the ad provider and the type of data used by that provider. Pages about tickets should continue to send users to official sources first and should not imply that FIFA.us.org is an official sales channel.

Children

The guide is written for general football audiences and does not intentionally collect personal information from children. Any future interactive feature that could collect personal data should be reviewed before it is added.

Security

Static publishing reduces some risks, but it does not remove every operational concern. Hosting, CDN, DNS, analytics and contact email providers may still process technical information needed to deliver the site, prevent abuse and diagnose errors.

Users should also be careful with external ticket, hospitality and travel links. Before submitting payment or identity information on another site, confirm that the destination is the official resource you intended to visit.

Updates

This privacy policy should be reviewed before launch and after any change to analytics, ads, affiliate links, contact forms, newsletter tools or embedded media. The site should not add a third-party script without updating this page and checking performance, privacy and consent implications.
