Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 30, 2026

This page explains what data BallknowerHQ collects, how analytics and cookies work, and the choices you have. BallknowerHQ is a content site about College Football 27 dynasty strategy. It does not require an account, and it does not ask you to submit personal information to read anything here.

The Short Version

BallknowerHQ is a static, read-only site. We do not run user accounts, we do not host comment sections, and we do not ask you to fill out forms. We use a privacy-focused analytics tool to count visits, and some pages link to or embed YouTube. We do not sell your personal information.

What Data Is Collected

We use a lightweight, privacy-focused web analytics service to understand general traffic patterns. Depending on the provider's configuration, the following categories of technical data may be processed:

We do not collect your name, email address, or payment information, because there is nowhere on the site for you to enter it. We do not build advertising profiles, and we do not sell your personal information.

Analytics

We use a privacy-focused web analytics service to measure traffic and improve the site. Our analytics are configured to avoid cookies where possible and to report aggregate, session-level data rather than information that identifies you personally.

We also use search-engine webmaster tools (such as Google Search Console and Bing Webmaster Tools) to monitor how the site appears in search results. These tools report aggregate search and indexing data to us and do not give us personal information about individual visitors.

Cookies and Local Storage

Our core analytics are designed to operate without setting tracking cookies. Some interactive pages or tools on the site may store your most recent inputs in your browser's local storage so your settings persist when you refresh the page. That local data stays in your browser, is not tied to any account, and is not transmitted to us as personal information.

You can clear or block cookies and local storage at any time through your browser settings.

Embedded and Linked YouTube Videos

Some pages include YouTube video thumbnails, embeds, or links that open videos on YouTube. If you click through to or load an embedded video, YouTube may set cookies or collect usage and device data under Google's and YouTube's own privacy practices. That activity is governed by Google's privacy policy, not this one.

Advertising

BallknowerHQ does not currently serve display ads or load any advertising scripts on the site.

We may introduce advertising in the future to help cover the cost of running the site. If and when display advertising is enabled, this policy will be updated before ads go live to describe:

If we use a third-party advertising network, that network may use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. At that time, you will be able to review and adjust ad personalization through the relevant provider's settings (for example, Google's Ads Settings) and through any consent prompt presented on the site.

Visitors From the EEA, UK, and Switzerland

If you are visiting from the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, applicable data protection law gives you rights over your personal data, including the right to access, correct, or request deletion of data, and the right to object to certain processing.

Because the site currently collects only limited, aggregate analytics data and does not operate user accounts, the personal data we hold is minimal. If advertising or any cookie-based tracking is enabled in the future, a consent mechanism will be presented to visitors in these regions before non-essential cookies are set, and this policy will be updated to reflect those choices.

Children

BallknowerHQ is general-audience content about a video game and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information through any future feature on the site, contact us and we will address it.

Non-Affiliation

BallknowerHQ is an independent fan site and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by EA Sports or any official partner. References to College Football 27, Dynasty mode, teams, and related game concepts are used for identification, commentary, and analysis.

Future Features

If we later add features that collect personal information directly from you, such as an email newsletter signup, a contact form, or comments, this policy will be updated to describe what is collected, how it is used, and how you can opt out or request deletion, before that feature is made available.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy as the site evolves or as new features, analytics tools, or advertising partners are introduced. Updates will be posted on this page with a revised "Last updated" date.
