Welcome to World Cricket Watch’s privacy notice (the “Notice”).
World Cricket Watch (also referred to in this Notice as “we”; “us”; or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. We will only collect and use your personal data as described in this Notice.
This Notice covers personal data which we process when you visit https://worldcricketwatch.com/, including any landing or sub-pages or affiliate links that are integrated within it (the “Site”), and/or otherwise use our products or services (which are primarily targeted at or relate to iGaming businesses and operators).
We may also receive information about End-Users (as defined below), however, in most cases the identity of the individual is not shared with us and would be obscured by, for instance, an assigned user i.d. (i.e. a pseudonym), which prevents us from being able to identify the individual End-User. Exceptionally, there could be certain limited scenarios where we might be able to ascertain an End-User’s identity, although in general we do not actively seek to do this. We provide further details about this later in the Notice.
This Notice explains what personal data we collect through our Site and products (including via tracking technologies), how and why we collect it and the ways in which we may disclose it and our reasons for doing so. It also provides information on how to exercise your rights as a data subject over this data.
We have also included a section in this Notice covering the way/s in which we process personal data that we receive about users of Partner Sites (termed an “End-User”).
This Notice should be read in conjunction with our Website Terms of Use, which sets out the terms that apply when using our Site. We may revise this Notice from time to time, but we will never do so in a manner that undermines your rights. We will provide notice on our Site when we make any material modifications to this Notice and strongly encourage you to review any changes made.
Please also use the Glossary to understand the meaning of some of the terms used in this Notice.
World Cricket Watch provides information on Brazilian football news, live-scores, pictures, interviews, articles, videos, statistics and forecasts. The information is for entertainment purposes only. World Cricket Watch`s Website may contain links to other Websites, in this Notice, we collectively refer to such clients or other Websites as our “Partners”.
It is important that you read this Notice together with any other privacy notice or fair processing notice we may provide on specific occasions when we are collecting or processing personal data about you so that you are fully aware of how and why we are using your Personal Data.
This Notice supplements the other notices and is not intended to override them.
CX Media Ltd is the operator of the Site and is also the controller and responsible for your personal data (referred to as “World Cricket Watch”; “we”; “us”; or “our” in this Notice).
We have appointed a data privacy manager who is responsible for overseeing questions in relation to this Notice. If you have any questions about this Notice, including any requests to exercise your legal rights, please contact the data privacy manager using the details set out below.
You also have the right to lodge a complaint at any time to a competent supervisory authority on data protection matters, such as in particular the supervisory authority in the place of your habitual residence or your place of work. We would, however, appreciate the opportunity to deal with your concerns before you approach the supervisory authority, so please contact us in the first instance.

The Site may include links to third-party websites, plug-ins and applications, whose practices may differ from our own. Clicking on those links or otherwise enabling those connections may allow such third parties to collect or share personal data about you. We do not control these third-party websites or applications and we are not in any way responsible for their privacy notices, statements, or practices. We encourage you to carefully read the privacy notice and policy of any website or application you visit, access or use.
The Site is not directed at minors, and we do not knowingly collect information relating to minors.
If you are a parent or guardian and you are aware that your child (being a minor) has provided us with personal data without your consent, you may contact us at support@World Cricket Watch.com. If we learn that we have collected a minor’s personal data in violation of applicable law, we will promptly take steps to investigate this, delete such information and, where applicable, terminate the minor’s account.
The personal data we collect depends on whether the individual is:
This section applies to personal data which we collect about visitors to the Site (https://worldcricketwatch.com/), including any of its sub-sites or sub-domains.
When someone visits the Site, we may temporarily store the name of their internet service provider, internet protocol (IP) address, the website they visited us from, the parts of the Site they visit, the date and duration of their visit, information from or relating to the device (such as device type, operating system, screen resolution, language, country you are located in, and web browser type) used during their visit, or other similar information that helps us understand their behaviour on the Site.
We process this usage data to facilitate access to the Site (such as to adjust the Site to the devices being used to access it). We may also use this data to analyse, develop, improve, secure, or optimise the use, function and performance of the Site or to make sure we are reaching the right audience.
Wherever possible, we will use usage data in an aggregated and/or anonymized form. Depending on the context, our legal basis for this processing is article 6(1)(a) or article 6(1)(f), GDPR.
A “cookie” is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on a visitor’s browser or the hard drive of their computer or mobile device (provided that, in most cases, we have their consent). A cookie enables the website to remember users that have already visited. Without a cookie, every time the visitor opens a new web page, the server where that page is stored will treat them like a completely new visitor.
We use cookies to process information including standard internet log information and details of the visitor’s behavioural patterns upon visiting the Site. This is done to:
Visitors also have the opportunity to contact us, for example via a contact form, where we may ask for certain contact information (such as a name, email etc.). We use this data solely for answering the queries which we receive. The legal basis for this processing is article 6(1)(f) GDPR.
This section applies to individuals who have also created an account on the Site (a “User”) and is in addition to the “usage data” and “cookie information” which we also collect following their use of the Site.
When someone signs up on the Site, we will request the following information to establish their account:
This will comprise the User’s account information and will be processed by us in order to administer and maintain that account and our relationship with the User. Our legal basis for processing personal data associated with a User’s account will generally be article 6(1)(b) GDPR. Please also refer to our Terms of Service for further details on the terms which apply to the creation and use of an account on the Site.
We also utilise a tracking technology on our Site, which runs as a script and could enable us to identify when a User clicks on an affiliate link integrated onto the Site and from this, accesses and creates an account on a Partner Site. This technology assigns a token consisting of a random integer to the User whilst using the Site, which we can then technically use to verify whether a User has created an account on a Partner Site.
The information which we generate and process through this would generally consist of the following:
We process this data primarily in order to understand the effectiveness of our links (and gain insights on how to further develop and optimise our links and marketing campaigns), track the number of Users that are being directed to our Partner Sites and in what amounts and frequency and verify where a User has created a separate user account on a Partner Site after having been directed or referred to it from a link integrated on our Site. This data is also factored into the compensation models which we have concluded with our Partners.
We also collate this data and generate statistics from it, which we then analyse in order to drive increased traffic to our Partner Sites (including by improving existing marketing campaigns).
We will mainly rely on article 6(1)(f), GDPR as our legal basis for processing this information, as the main object in this context is to enhance our business and grow our customer relationships.
This section applies to information which we receive from Partners about individuals who have been directed to their site through our links or any of our other products and created an account on that site. In most cases, this information will be pseudonymised data and not personal data, as explained below.
When an End-User creates an account or otherwise visits a Partner Site, its privacy policy will explain what information is collected by the operator of that site, how it will process it and its purposes for doing so.
This section should always be read in conjunction with the specific privacy policy of the Partner Site, which will contain further details regarding the processing of your personal data by the operator of the Partner Site.
As part of our compensation, we receive a commission from the relevant Partner when an individual is directed to its website through us (such as via an affiliate link included on the Site) and subsequently, (i) creates a user account on that website, and (ii) places a bet or conducts a transactional activity on it. In such cases, we will generally receive the following information about that End-User from the relevant Partner, and will primarily use this to determine or otherwise verify the correct compensation due to us by that Partner:
Depending on the context, our legal basis for this processing is article 6(1)(b) or article 6(1)(f), GDPR.
As mentioned earlier in this Notice, the actual identity of the End-User will generally not be shared with us, with this information typically being provided under a pseudonym (such as a user I.D.) that has been created or assigned by the Partner (who itself would have and hold the End-User’s direct identifiers, such as name, surname and/or email address, separately from us). In those circumstances, it would not be possible for us (as the recipient) to directly or indirectly identify the End-User and all this information – although derived from that End-User – would amount to pseudonymised data for us and not personal data at law.
Nevertheless, there are certain limited scenarios where we may be able to technically identify the End-User based on certain information which we may already have in our possession. This could be the case where:
In such cases, we may, in principle, be able to use the information that we generate as part of our account registration process and link this with the information that we receive from the Partner about the End-User (including by using the tracking technology which we deploy on the Site, as explained above).
In turn, this could technically enable us to establish the identity of the End-User and, from this, associate the information received from the Partner (such as sign-up date, deposits) to that individual.
We do not however actively seek to do this and, even if we do take such steps, our processing would largely be for the same purposes as those set out in the section on “Users”, namely, to understand the effectiveness of our links and campaigns, gain insights on preferences and provide tailored marketing. Same as the case with “Users”, we will mainly rely on article 6(1)(f), GDPR as our legal basis for processing in this context.
We may also process personal data (whether of visitors, Users or End-Users) in order to:
We also collect, use and share data in an aggregated form such as statistical or demographic data to improve the Site and for statistical and benchmarking purposes, including enabling comparisons within the same industry to enhance the insights collected through the Site.
Aggregated Data could be derived from your personal data but will not be considered personal data in law as this data will not directly or indirectly reveal your identity. For example, we may aggregate your Usage Data to calculate the percentage of users accessing a specific website feature. However, if we combine or connect Aggregated Data with your personal data so that it can directly or indirectly identify you, we treat the combined data as personal data which will be used in accordance with this privacy policy.
We do not knowingly collect any Special Categories of Personal Data about you (this includes details about your race or ethnicity, religious or philosophical beliefs, sex life, sexual orientation, political opinions, trade union membership, information about your health, and genetic and biometric data).
Nor do we collect any information about criminal convictions and offences.
We work with companies that help us provide our services and products.
From time to time, we need to share some of your personal data with:
(a) our third-party consultants, (sub-)contractors, suppliers or other service providers who may access your personal data when providing services to us (including but not limited to IT support services). This includes information technology experts who design and host our Site, and general service companies. These are carefully selected to ensure that they meet high data protection and security standards. We only share data with them that is required for the services offered and we contractually bind them to keep any information we share with them confidential and to process personal data only according to our instructions.
(b) auditors or contractors or other advisors auditing, assisting with or advising on any of our business purposes;
(c) analytics and search engine providers that assist us in the improvement and optimisation of our Site and any affiliate links or marketing campaigns integrated on it;
(d) our successors in title or third parties to whom we may choose to sell, transfer, or merge parts of our business or assets. Alternatively, we may seek to acquire other businesses or merge with them. If a change happens to our business, the new owners may use your personal data in the same way as set out in this Notice;
(e) government bodies and law enforcement agencies and in response to other legal and regulatory requests or by instruction from a court, tribunal or public authority;
(f) any third-party where such disclosure is required in order to enforce or apply our Website Terms or other relevant agreements.
Where your details are provided to any other party in accordance with an express purpose, we will require them to be kept safe and secure your personal data and only use it for the intended purpose.
Due to the global nature of our business, your personal data may need to be processed outside of your home country. Some of our service providers and business partners are located in various locations, including outside of the EU or EEA. In such events, transfers of your personal data will be made in accordance with applicable data protection laws, and as specifically, all transfers of personal data outside the EU or EEA will be made subject to the provisions of the Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) approved by the European Commission. Where applicable and required by law, we ensure supplementary measures are placed, such as encryption in transfer and at rest. For instance, we currently store our data with a third- party hosting service provider based in the U.S. and have entered into appropriate contractual safeguards with that provider.
Please contact us at [email protected] for further details relating specifically to your data.
We may send notification emails about updates to our products, legal documents, customer support or for marketing purposes. We also use personal data given to us by Partners, Users, or visitors in order to gain insights and deliver targeted advertisement, as explained earlier in the sections on “Users” and “End-Users”. Based on the importance of this activity for our business and the fact that we would already have an existing relationship with the recipient, we rely on article 6(1)(f), GDPR as our legal basis for conducting this activity and processing the relevant information (“legitimate interests” ground). You can however opt-out of receiving marketing communications from us at any time (see your right to object below).
Unless a different timeframe has been specifically stated in this Policy, personal data will be retained for as long as is necessary for the purpose(s) for which we originally collected it or to resolve disputes, establish legal defence, conduct audits, pursue legitimate business purposes, and enforce our contractual terms.
We may also retain information as required by applicable law.
The Internet is not a secure medium. Please also be aware that communications over the Internet, such as emails/webmails, are not secure unless they have been encrypted. Your communications may route through a number of countries before being delivered. This is the nature of the World Wide Web/Internet. We cannot accept responsibility for any unauthorised access or loss of personal information that is beyond our control.
However, we have put in place a range of security procedures, as set out in this Notice. We use reasonable endeavours to implement appropriate policies, rules, and technical measures to protect the personal data that we have under our control (having regard to the type and amount of that data) from unauthorised access, improper use or disclosure, unauthorised modification, unlawful destruction or accidental loss.
Websites and social media links may contain links to third party websites. These other websites will be subject to their own privacy policies which may differ from this Notice. You should carefully read the privacy policies of these websites before submitting any personal information.
Under certain circumstances, you have rights under data protection laws in relation to your personal data.
If you wish to exercise any of the rights set out above, please contact us at support@World Cricket Watch.com.
Access: You have the right to obtain confirmation that your information is being processed and to obtain access to your information, e.g., by receiving a copy of it.
Rectification: You have the right to have your information corrected if it is inaccurate or incomplete.
Erasure: You have the right to request the deletion or removal of your information in certain circumstances. Please note that there may be circumstances where it is not possible to fulfil the request for your information to be deleted, e.g if there is a legal reason to retain it.
Object: You have the right to object to processing of your personal data where we are relying on a legitimate interest or those of a third party, and you want to object to that processing as you feel that it impacts on your fundamental rights and freedoms. You also have the right to object where we are processing your personal data for marketing purposes.
Restrict: You have the right to request that the processing of your information is restricted in certain circumstances. Again, there may be cases where we are legally entitled to refuse such a request.
Data Portability: You have the right to request the transfer of your personal data to you or to a third party. We will provide that personal data in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format. This right only applies to automated information which you initially provided consent for us to use or where we used the information to perform a contract with you.
Withdrawal: You may withdraw your consent at any time where we are relying on consent to process your personal data. This will not however affect the lawfulness of any processing carried out before you withdrew your consent and any processing activities that are not based on your consent will remain unaffected. Once we have been made aware that you have withdrawn your consent, we will no longer process your personal data for the purpose or purposes you originally agreed to, unless we have another legitimate basis for doing so in law.
Kindly note that none of these data subject rights are absolute and must generally be weighed against our own legal obligations and legitimate interests. If a decision is taken to override your data subject request, you will be informed of this by our data protection team along with the reasons for our decision.
This Notice may be updated from time to time.
Please note that if our business, or any part of it, is sold or transferred at any time, the information we hold may form part of the assets transferred, although it will still only be used in accordance with this Notice.
We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions from this Notice at any time. Please read this Notice carefully and re-visit this page from time to time to review for changes.
