Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains what information TankOdds may collect, how that information is used, and what third-party services may process data when you use the TankOdds website or the TankOdds Basketball Draft Sim iOS app. TankOdds is an independent basketball analytics and editorial product. Using the site or app means you understand that some technical information may be collected automatically in the normal course of running a modern website or ad-supported mobile app.

Information We Collect

TankOdds does not require account creation to browse public pages or use the core features of the app. In general, TankOdds does not collect sensitive personal information from ordinary users as a condition of reading articles or using public tools. Some information may still be collected in two basic ways: information you choose to send directly, and technical information collected automatically by analytics, advertising, hosting, and security systems.

If you contact TankOdds through a form or by email, the information you provide may include your name, email address, and the contents of your message. If you browse the site or use the app, automated systems may collect information such as pages or screens viewed, app interactions, approximate location, IP address, browser or device type, operating system, referral source, crash or diagnostic information, and general usage behavior.

Information Collected in the iOS App

The TankOdds Basketball Draft Sim iOS app may use third-party advertising and analytics tools that collect technical data needed to serve ads, measure performance, prevent fraud, and understand overall product usage. Depending on the configuration of your device, app permissions, and applicable law, this may include device identifiers, advertising identifiers, IP address, approximate location, app version, device model, language, and ad interaction data.

Where required, consent or permission prompts may be shown before certain advertising-related data is used. On iOS, this can include Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt for access to the Identifier for Advertisers (IDFA). If you do not allow tracking, ads may still be shown, but they may be less personalized.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

TankOdds may use cookies and similar technologies to support analytics, site functionality, advertising, and performance measurement. On the website, these technologies can help remember preferences, understand site usage patterns, and measure how pages and features are performing over time. In the app, similar functions may be handled through software development kits, local storage, and mobile device identifiers.

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. On mobile devices, some advertising and privacy controls are available through iOS settings and any consent tools presented in the app. Disabling certain tracking features may affect ad personalization, but public content and core app functionality should generally remain accessible.

Advertising

TankOdds may use Google AdSense on the website and Google AdMob / Google Mobile Ads SDK in the iOS app to display ads. Advertising partners may use cookies, device identifiers, IP address, approximate location, and similar technologies to serve and measure ads, including personalized or non-personalized ads depending on device settings, consent status, and applicable law.

Google explains that apps using Google advertising services may share information such as the name of the app and a unique advertising identifier with Google. Google's advertising practices are described in its own policies, including How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. Users can also learn more or manage ad personalization preferences through Google My Ad Center.

Analytics and Site Performance

TankOdds uses analytics tools to understand traffic patterns, popular pages, device usage, referral sources, app engagement, and general performance trends. This helps improve page quality, diagnose broken features, fix crashes, and figure out what readers and app users actually find useful. Analytics data is used to evaluate TankOdds as a product and publisher, not to intentionally build personal profiles of individual users.

Third-Party Services

TankOdds may rely on third-party services for analytics, advertising, infrastructure, app monetization, and embedded functionality. Those services operate under their own privacy policies and terms. Relevant third parties may include:

Third-party providers may receive technical request data such as IP address, browser metadata, app metadata, device identifiers, approximate location, and usage information as part of delivering their services.

Affiliate Links and Tracking

TankOdds may include affiliate links to licensed third-party sportsbooks. When you click an affiliate link, the sportsbook's tracking systems may record that you arrived from TankOdds. This tracking is handled by the sportsbook's own platform and is subject to that sportsbook's privacy policy. TankOdds does not receive personal information about users as part of the affiliate tracking process — we receive only aggregate or anonymized commission reporting.

Affiliate links may set cookies from the sportsbook's domain in your browser at the time you click. TankOdds does not control those cookies. You can manage third-party cookies through your browser settings.

How Information Is Used

Information collected through the site or app may be used to operate TankOdds, respond to messages, maintain security, understand readership and app usage, improve performance, troubleshoot errors, support advertising or monetization where enabled, and comply with legal obligations. Contact submissions may also be used to follow up on questions, corrections, support requests, or legitimate business inquiries.

Data Sharing

TankOdds doesn't sell personal information in the ordinary course of running the site. Information may be shared with service providers when necessary to host the site, analyze traffic, serve ads, process contact messages, or comply with legal obligations.

Children's Privacy

The TankOdds website and app are not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13.

Policy Updates

This policy may be updated from time to time to reflect changes in the site, its services, or applicable requirements. The version published on this page is the current version.

Changes to This Policy

Continued use of TankOdds after updates are posted means you accept the revised policy to the extent permitted by law.
