Privacy Policy

Last updated: October 20, 2025

This Privacy Policy is designed to help users understand how their Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is used online. PII, as defined under EU privacy and information security laws, is information that can be used on its own or with other information to identify, contact, or locate a specific individual, or to identify an individual in context. Please read our Privacy Policy carefully to understand how we collect, use, protect, or otherwise handle your Personally Identifiable Information in accordance with our website, aiprofootballstats.com.

We, Armlinsoft Oy (hereinafter referred to as “the Service,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), the owner and operator of AIProFootballStats.com, respect your privacy and are committed to full compliance with the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and Finland’s national data protection laws, including the Personal Data Act (Henkilötietolaki) and oversight by the Finnish Data Protection Ombudsman (Tietosuojavaltuutettu). We process data within the European Economic Area (EEA) and do not transfer it outside the EEA without adequate safeguards (e.g., EU Standard Contractual Clauses).

What personal information do we collect from visitors to our blog, website, or app?

We collect a minimal amount of information from visitors to our website, including:

  • Usage Data: Information about interactions with match predictions, newsletter subscriptions, or surveys.

We do not collect sensitive information such as health data, political opinions, or financial details, except where necessary for service provision (e.g., payment system integration for premium subscriptions).

Legal Basis for Processing: Consent (GDPR Art. 6(1)(a)), performance of a contract (Art. 6(1)(b)), or legitimate interest (Art. 6(1)(f)) for analytics.
