RANK147 / PRIVACY

Privacy Policy.

Learn how Rank147 handles technical data, browser preferences, and how third-party vendors (including Google) use advertising cookies with opt-out choices.

1. Scope

This notice applies to the public snooker records, guides and browser game on rank147.com, an independent snooker reference project. Public visitors do not need an account or payment to browse the site.

2. Browser preferences

Language and time zone choices are stored on your device using localStorage keys rank147-locale and rank147-timezone. The site uses these choices to display pages; it does not save these preferences to its business database. You can clear them in your browser settings. Game state stays in the current page's memory.

3. Hosting and external resources

Cloudflare provides hosting and request processing. Requests may include your IP address, browser information, requested URL and time. Cloudflare may process technical information for service delivery and security under its privacy policy. This site does not promise that IP addresses are anonymized or specify an unverified retention period for the provider's logs.

Where a page requests an external flag image or opens a source link, the external service receives the corresponding network request and applies its own privacy notice. Advertising resources, when enabled, also make requests to their providers.

4. Google advertising and cookies

Selected pages may load Google AdSense. Google and other advertising vendors may use cookies based on your previous visits to this site or other websites. Google's advertising cookies let Google and its partners personalize ads using those visits. Ad availability depends on account approval, page eligibility, region and applicable choices.

You can turn off personalized Google ads through Google Ads Settings or My Ad Center. To manage participating third-party vendors, visit AboutAds.info. See how Google uses information from partner sites.

Where Google's consent message is available, use its choices and the footer's “Privacy & ad choices” control to revisit them. Advertising to visitors in the EEA, UK and Switzerland requires the applicable consent process using a Google-certified consent management platform. This privacy notice itself is not a consent form.

You can also block or delete cookies in your browser. Public records and guides remain accessible without personalized advertising.

5. Contact and privacy requests

For site corrections or privacy enquiries, contact contact@rank147.com. If you email us, your email address and message are used to handle the enquiry. Please do not send passwords, identity documents or payment details. Requests concerning provider-held data can also be directed to that provider through its privacy policy. Your available rights depend on the applicable law and processing involved.

6. Updates

Changes to this notice will be published here with an updated date.
