Privacy Policy

PB Tracker has no accounts and sets no first-party cookies. Your favorites and settings live in your browser; the server keeps a copy of your favorites and (only if you opt in) your push subscription, keyed by a random id your browser makes up. Google Analytics and the advertising network behind the site's banners each process data under their own privacy policies.

The site uses your browser's local storage (not cookies) to remember: the tournament you selected, the teams and fixtures you starred, your notification preferences, your polling interval, and an anonymous device id — a random UUID generated once with crypto.randomUUID().

That device id exists only so your favorites can have a second copy on the server (see below). It identifies a browser profile, not a person: it contains no name, email, or device details, and clearing your browser data deletes it along with everything it keys.

If local storage is unavailable — private browsing, blocked storage — the site works normally but remembers nothing between visits, and tells you so.

Three things, and only when a feature needs it:

• Favorites — the teams and matches you starred, saved against your anonymous device id so they survive a storage failure or a reinstall. Old entries are swept automatically.
• Push subscription — only if you enable notifications: the browser's push endpoint and its encryption keys, plus which team or match you asked to be alerted about. This is what lets the browser deliver an alert; without it, notifications are impossible by design.
• Alert choices — the event, team, and match ids behind each alert you configured, so the server knows what to send you.

No email, no name, no password, no payment details — there is no account system to hold them. Server rows tied to a device id are deleted by a daily cleanup once they go stale.

PB Tracker itself does not set any cookies. Cookies may be set by the third parties below (Google Analytics and the advertising network that serves the banners), whose cookie controls you can use as described in their sections.

The site uses Google Analytics (measurement id G-PJT0Z23QJM) to count visits and see which pages are used. Google Analytics records things like the pages you view, your approximate region, the browser and screen size, and the referring page. You can opt out of Analytics across any site with Google's Analytics opt-out add-on, and manage data in your Google Account settings.

PB Tracker shows advertising served by Adsterra to fund the free service. The placement script is delivered from bauval.org and injects the creative into an iframe on the page. It may set cookies and store a random identifier in your browser so that ads can be selected and measured.

• Adsterra and its advertising partners may use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your visits to this site and/or other sites on the internet.
• You can see which cookies are used and turn many of them off in Adsterra's Cookies Policy, and read how your data is handled in their Privacy Policy.
• Industry-wide opt-outs for interest-based advertising are available at aboutads.info/choices.

Ads never appear inside the scoreboard itself, and we do not place ads where there is no content to read.

Tournament data and team logos are read from PBLeagues (pbleagues.com), and links to that site take you there under its own privacy policy. PB Tracker has no control over what third-party sites collect.

Paintball is watched by people of all ages, but PB Tracker is not directed at children under 13, does not knowingly collect personal information from them, and does not condition participation on disclosing more than is reasonably necessary.

If how the site handles data changes, this page changes with it — the date at the top always reflects the current version. Questions about your data can be sent to info@pbliveresults.com, and we will answer what we can.
