The Transfer Clock is designed to collect as little personal information as practical. This policy explains what may be processed when you visit the site or submit a correction.
Theme preference
The light or dark theme you select is stored in your browser’s local storage under the key transfer-clock-theme. It remains on your device and is used only to remember the site appearance. The site does not receive this value.
Hosting and localization
The site is hosted by Netlify. Like most hosting providers, Netlify may process technical request information such as IP addresses, browser information, requested URLs, and timestamps to deliver and secure the service. Netlify’s handling of that information is governed by its own privacy documentation.
The Transfer Clock also uses Netlify’s country-level geolocation to route visitors from Italy to the Italian version of the site and visitors from Germany to the German version. We do not store that country lookup in a user profile.
Contact submissions
If you use the corrections form, the name, email address, and message you provide are submitted through Netlify Forms. That information is used only to review and respond to the submission, investigate a correction, and prevent abuse. Do not include sensitive personal information.
External links
The site links to leagues, football associations, FIFA, and other external services. The optional tip jar also links to an external payment or sponsorship service. Those sites have separate privacy practices, and The Transfer Clock is not responsible for their content or data processing.
Data retention and choices
Contact submissions are retained only as long as reasonably needed to address the message, maintain a correction record, or protect the service. You may request access to or deletion of information you submitted by using the contact form and identifying the original message.
You can remove the saved theme preference at any time by clearing this site’s storage in your browser.
Changes
This policy may be updated when the site’s features, hosting, or support options change. The revision date at the top identifies the current version.
