Privacy Policy

Effective date: 16 September 2026

CRIC INFO 365 (“we,” “our,” or “us”) operates the website located at https://cricinfo365.com (the “Site”). This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, who we share it with, and the choices and rights you have regarding your personal data when you visit or interact with our Site.

By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.


1. Who We Are

Our website address is https://cricinfo365.com. CRIC INFO 365 is a cricket news and live-score platform providing match reports, scorecards, player statistics, and analysis to cricket fans. If you have questions about this policy or how we handle your data, you can reach us using the contact details listed at the end of this page.

2. Information We Collect

Comments

When you leave a comment on the Site, we collect the information shown in the comment form, along with your IP address and browser user agent string, to help us detect spam.

An anonymized string created from your email address (a “hash”) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check whether you are using it. You can review the Gravatar service’s privacy policy at https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the Site, please avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the Site can download and extract location data from any images published on the Site.

Account Information

If you register for an account on the Site, we store the personal information you provide as part of your profile (such as your username and email address). You can view, edit, or delete this information at any time from your account settings, with the exception of your username, which cannot be changed.

Log and Usage Data

Like most websites, our servers and third-party services automatically record certain information when you visit the Site. This may include your IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, referring pages, the pages you view, and the date and time of your visit. This information is used to keep the Site secure, diagnose technical problems, and understand how visitors use our content.

3. Cookies

Cookies are small text files placed on your device that help websites function and remember information about your visit. We and our third-party partners use cookies on the Site for the following purposes.

Cookies we set directly

  • Comment cookies. If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address, and website URL in a cookie for your convenience, so you do not have to re-enter this information next time. These cookies last for one year.
  • Login and preference cookies. If you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to determine whether your browser accepts cookies; it contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser. When you log in, we set several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days and screen-option cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login persists for two weeks. Logging out removes the login cookies.
  • Editing cookies. If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved that stores only the post ID of the article you edited. It contains no personal data and expires after one day.

Cookies set by third parties

Our analytics providers and advertising partners (described in the sections below) also place cookies on your device. These help us understand how the Site is used and allow advertising partners to serve and measure ads. You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings, and you can opt out of advertising cookies using the tools described in Section 5. Please note that disabling some cookies may affect how parts of the Site function.

4. Analytics

We use analytics services, including Google Analytics, to understand how visitors find and use the Site so we can improve our content and performance. These services use cookies and similar technologies to collect information such as pages visited, time spent on the Site, approximate location (derived from IP address), and the device and browser used. This information is aggregated and does not identify you personally to us. You can learn how Google uses data from sites that use its services at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.

5. Advertising

To keep the Site free for readers, we display advertising, including ads served by third-party advertising companies.

Google AdSense and third-party vendors

We use third-party advertising networks, including Google AdSense, to serve ads on the Site. These companies, and their partners, use cookies and similar technologies to serve and measure ads.

  • Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies to serve ads on the Site.
  • Google’s use of advertising cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) enables Google and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this Site and other sites on the internet.
  • Third-party vendors and ad networks other than Google may also use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites.

These cookies may be used to show you personalized ads that are more relevant to your interests, and to limit the number of times you see a particular ad and measure its effectiveness. The information collected through advertising cookies is governed by the privacy policies of those third parties, not this policy.

Your advertising choices

You have control over the ads you see:

  • You can opt out of personalized advertising by Google by visiting Google’s Ads Settings at https://www.google.com/settings/ads.
  • You can review how Google uses information from sites and apps that use its services at https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites.
  • You can opt out of personalized advertising from many third-party vendors through the Digital Advertising Alliance at https://optout.aboutads.info, the Network Advertising Initiative at https://optout.networkadvertising.org, or, if you are in the European Union, Your Online Choices at https://www.youronlinechoices.eu.

Opting out of personalized ads does not mean you will stop seeing ads; it means the ads you see may be less relevant to your interests.

Users in the EEA, UK, and other consent regions

Where required by law, we and our advertising partners will ask for your consent before setting non-essential advertising and analytics cookies, and you may withdraw that consent at any time through the cookie consent controls provided on the Site.

6. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on the Site may include embedded content (for example, videos, images, or posts from other sources). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you had visited that other website directly. These third-party websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including if you have an account and are logged into that website.

7. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect to:

  • Operate, maintain, and improve the Site and its content
  • Display and measure advertising that supports the Site
  • Respond to comments, inquiries, and support requests
  • Detect and prevent spam, fraud, and abuse
  • Understand how visitors use the Site so we can improve the experience
  • Comply with legal obligations

We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

8. Who We Share Your Data With

  • If you request a password reset, your IP address is included in the reset email.
  • Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam-detection service, which may process the content of the comment along with associated metadata.
  • We share limited data with the analytics and advertising partners described above, in order to run analytics and serve ads on the Site.
  • We may share information with trusted service providers who help us operate the Site (such as hosting or content-delivery providers), solely to provide their services to us and under obligations to keep your information confidential.

We do not share your personal information with third parties for their own independent marketing purposes without your consent.

9. How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely so we can recognize and automatically approve any follow-up comments rather than holding them in a moderation queue.

For registered users, we store the personal information in their profile for as long as the account remains active. All users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except their username). Site administrators can also view and edit this information.

We retain other data only for as long as necessary to fulfil the purposes described in this policy, or as required by law.

10. Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have an account on the Site, or have left comments, you can request:

  • An exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us
  • That we erase any personal data we hold about you, except where we are legally required to retain it for administrative, legal, or security purposes

Depending on where you live, you may also have the right to access, correct, or restrict the processing of your personal data, and the right to object to certain processing (including advertising based on your data). To make a request, please contact us using the details below. We will respond within a reasonable timeframe and in accordance with applicable data protection law.

11. Data Security

We take reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. However, no method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

12. Children’s Privacy

The Site is not directed at children under the age of 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take appropriate action.

13. Where Your Data Is Sent

Some of the services we use, such as spam detection, analytics, and advertising, may process data on servers located outside your country of residence. Where personal data is transferred internationally, we take steps to ensure it is handled in accordance with this Privacy Policy and applicable law.

14. Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal, operational, or regulatory reasons. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated effective date. We encourage you to review this policy periodically.
