Privacy Policy – UFCFight

This Privacy Policy explains how UFC News Online collects, uses, and protects your personal information when you visit our website. Your privacy is a top priority, and we are committed to safeguarding your data as you stay updated with the latest in the world of MMA.

Who We Are

Our website address is: https://ufcfight.net. We are UFC News Online, your source for UFC News, MMA News, celebrity updates, fight results, schedules, and more. You can find our contact information at the end of this policy.

What Personal Data We Collect and Why We Collect It

To improve your experience on our site, we collect certain information from our visitors and users. This can include personal data like your name and email address, transactional data if you make a purchase, and technical data such as information from cookies.

We collect this data based on legal requirements and your active consent. Personal data is generated from your direct interactions, such as leaving a comment or filling out a form, as well as from technical processes like cookies, analytics, and third-party embeds.

Comments

When you leave a comment on one of our articles, we collect the data shown in the comments form. To help with spam detection, we also collect your IP address and browser user agent string.

An anonymized string (a “hash”) created from your email address may be sent to the Gravatar service to see if you have a profile picture. After your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible next to your comment.

Media

If you have the ability to upload images to the website, we advise against uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Other visitors can download images from the site and may be able to extract this location data.

Contact Forms

When you use a contact form on our site, we collect the personal data you submit, such as your name and email address. We hold onto these submissions for a limited time for customer service purposes but do not use the information for marketing unless you give us your explicit consent.

Cookies

Our site uses cookies to enhance your visit. Here is how we use them:

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email, and website in cookies. This is for your convenience so you don’t have to enter your details again. These cookies last for one year.
  • Login: When you visit our login page, a temporary cookie is set to determine if your browser accepts them. This cookie has no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser. Upon logging in, we use several cookies to save your login information and screen display preferences. Login cookies are active for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you choose “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. These cookies are removed when you log out.
  • Publishing: If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved in your browser. It includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.

Analytics

We may use analytics tools to understand how our audience interacts with the website. This helps us improve our content and deliver the news and results you care about. These services may collect anonymous data. You can usually opt out of this tracking through your browser settings or tools provided by the analytics service.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may feature embedded content, like videos, images, or social media posts, from other websites. This content behaves in the same way as if you had visited the other website directly.

These external sites may collect data about you, use their own cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the content, especially if you have an account and are logged into that website.

Who We Share Your Data With

We do not share your personal data with third parties except in specific, necessary situations. For example, if you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email. We might share data with trusted partners who help run our website, like payment processors or cloud service providers, but only as needed for them to perform their services.

How Long We Retain Your Data

We keep personal data for different lengths of time based on its purpose:

  • Comments: If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are kept indefinitely. This helps us recognize and automatically approve any follow-up comments.
  • User Registration: For registered users, we store the personal information provided in their user profile. Users can see, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (though the username cannot be changed). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.
  • Contact Form Entries: Submissions from contact forms may be kept for a period, such as six months, for customer service inquiries.
  • Analytics Records: We may retain analytics records for up to a year.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

You have rights concerning your personal data. If you have an account on UFC News Online or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You can also ask us to erase any personal data we have. This does not include any data we are obligated to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Your data may be processed on servers located outside of your home country. For example, visitor comments might be checked by an automated spam detection service. If we transfer data outside the European Union, we take steps to ensure it receives the same level of protection as required by European data protection law, using methods like standard contractual clauses or other legal safeguards.

How We Protect Your Data

We use a variety of security measures to keep your personal information safe. This includes technical measures like encryption and security protocols such as two-factor authentication. Our staff also receives training on data protection practices to ensure your information is handled with care.

What Data Breach Procedures We Have in Place

In the event of a potential or actual data breach, we have procedures to respond quickly. These include internal reporting systems, methods for contacting affected users, and actions to limit any potential damage.

What Third Parties We Receive Data From

Our website might receive data about users from third-party sources, such as advertisers or partners. When we get this data, we make sure it is handled according to this privacy policy and all applicable laws.

What Automated Decision Making and/or Profiling We Do With User Data

We do not use your data for automated decision-making or profiling that has a significant legal or personal impact. Our focus is on delivering great MMA content, not making automated judgments with user data.

Industry Regulatory Disclosure Requirements

If we are part of a regulated industry or are subject to other privacy laws, we will disclose any necessary information in this section to comply with those regulations.
