If you just browse
No cookies, no ads, no third-party scripts and no third-party requests: even the fonts are served from this site. The site counts visits without tracking you: a one-way hash of your IP address and browser, mixed with a random value that is deleted after a day, is used only to count how many different people came that day. It can't be reversed or matched from one day to the next, and your IP address is never stored. The site also keeps plain totals of button clicks and of where a link came from (the source tag in a link, for example ?src=tg). None of this is counted if your browser sends Do Not Track or Global Privacy Control. Your filters, unit size, language and the link's source tag are kept in your own browser only.
If you create an account
We store your username, a hashed password (the password itself is never stored and can't be read back), your settings (filters, unit size, alert choices, language) and the bets you choose to log: event, market, book, odds, stake, result and dates, plus the source tag of the link that brought you here, if it had one. No email, no phone number, no real name.
Push alerts
If you turn alerts on, your browser gives us an anonymous push address for that device. We use it only to send the alerts you chose, and delete it when you turn alerts off or delete your account.
Public profiles
Off by default. If you switch it on, your username and the aggregate closing-line numbers of your verified bets appear on the leaderboard and a profile page. Individual bets, stakes and events are never shown. You can switch it off any time.
Cookies
One cookie, sb_session, keeps you signed in for up to 30 days. It's strictly necessary for being logged in and is not used for tracking.
Your control
Under My Bets → Account you can export all your bets as a CSV at any time, change your password, or delete your account, which permanently deletes every bet, setting and push address.
Passwords
Because there's no email on file, there's no password reset. If you forget your password you'll need to create a new account.
What this site is not
It doesn't place bets, connect to bookmakers, or hold money. My Bets is a notebook for your own records. Nothing here is financial advice.
