Privacy policy
As of 6 October 2026 every page loads one third-party tag on its own: Google Analytics 4, with Consent Mode v2 left denied so it stays cookieless and identifier-free. Two more wait for your permission in the cookie banner — Microsoft Clarity, which records masked sessions and heatmaps, and the Adsterra ad units, which serve this site’s advertising. Optional YouTube players need that permission plus a video click. RocketGoal opens on its own official site, not inside this website. Hosting and email delivery process ordinary service requests.
Who we are
The site is carsoccer.net. Contact [email protected] for privacy requests. We do not sell personal information.
What loads, and why
Google / YouTube: youtube-nocookie.com embeds, youtube.com, ytimg.com and googlevideo.com player and media services, fonts.gstatic.com fonts, google.com player checks and googleapis.com API requests load only after the separate YouTube permission and video click. These services are operated by Google. Privacy-enhanced mode is not a promise of zero tracking or zero storage once playback begins.
Cloudflare provides domain security, hosting when deployed, and Email Routing for [email protected]. It can process request metadata and email content to deliver these services. A forwarding mailbox provider processes messages you send to that address; do not include sensitive game credentials.
Google Analytics 4 (measurement ID G-88FVCM25FX) loads from www.googletagmanager.com on every page. Our inline Consent Mode v2 defaults run in the document head first: ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization and analytics_storage are all denied, with ads_data_redaction enabled. Because analytics_storage stays denied, no Analytics cookie or other Google storage is written: each page view is a cookieless ping that carries no identifier of ours, so Google cannot follow the same browser across sites or sessions. Google still receives the page URL, the referrer, coarse location from your IP address, and ordinary device and request data for that ping. These defaults remain denied when you permit a YouTube frame; YouTube operates its own player and storage under Google’s policy.
Microsoft Clarity (project ytinoxsajd) is the site’s session recording and heatmap tag, served from clarity.ms and processed by Microsoft under the Microsoft privacy statement. It is injected only after you allow advertising and session recording in the cookie banner — never on page load — and Reject (or a Global Privacy Control signal) means the browser never requests clarity.ms at all. Clarity is not cookieless: once it runs it writes the first-party cookies _clck and _clsk on carsoccer.net, keeps them for up to a year, and sends Microsoft an anonymous record of the visit — page views, clicks, scroll depth, and a replay of the session. Text and input fields are masked by default, so what you type and the content of form fields are not recorded. Use Cookie settings in the footer to withdraw; that stops future requests but cannot erase what was already sent.
Adsterra serves this site’s advertising: two units, Native Banner (ad unit NativeBanner_1, ID 31590662) in an in-page slot above the footer, and Social Bar (ad unit SocialBar_1, ID 31590663) as the fixed bar at the bottom of the screen, with both scripts served from bicea.org. They are injected by our own script on the same permission as Clarity, so a rejected choice means no request to bicea.org. Adsterra is an independent ad network, not part of Google: it selects and serves the creative, sets its own cookies and identifiers on its own domains for frequency capping and measurement, and its privacy and cookie policies (linked below) describe that processing and how to contact it. We do not run Google AdSense, and no other ad network runs on this site. The Social Bar can be closed with “Hide ad bar” in the footer; that choice is stored in the key below so the bar stays hidden on your later visits.
| Key | Where | Purpose | Retention |
|---|---|---|---|
| carsoccer_consent | localStorage | Version 3: separate permissions for advertising and session recording, RocketGoal, and YouTube, plus expiry | 180 days; expired, version 2 and older-format choices are removed on the next visit |
| carsoccer_adbar_hidden | localStorage | Remembers that you used “Hide ad bar”, so the fixed Adsterra Social Bar stays hidden instead of returning on the next page load | Until you clear this site’s data or press “Show ad bar” |
What we do not run
Adsterra is the only ad seller on this site and there is no Google AdSense unit, no comment system, no external font host and no seller account besides Adsterra. /ads.txt is not published: Adsterra issues no ads.txt record for publishers ("we do not provide ads.txt files, as our advertisers do not require them", in its publisher help), so there is no seller line to declare and none is invented. Two third-party tags can load here beyond the ad units — Google Analytics 4 and Microsoft Clarity — and the section above describes exactly what each one receives. External RocketGoal game links do not request PocketHaven, Firebase, Smartlook, GameAnalytics, Playgama, DigitalOcean or Xsolla services from our pages. Those providers belong to the external game, which has its own privacy policy after you navigate there.
Global Privacy Control and Do Not Track
Global Privacy Control keeps advertising, session recording, videos and the RocketGoal frame denied, including previously saved permissions. Do Not Track is not permission. Cookie settings in every footer reopens the choice. Reject, or uncheck a permission and save, removes the ad units and the video frame immediately. Withdrawal stops their future requests; it cannot erase already transmitted data or cross-origin storage. Use browser controls or contact Adsterra, Google or Microsoft for that data.
Rights and changes
You can ask for access, correction, deletion, or a copy of the mailbox conversation you had with us. Email [email protected]. We have no account database to export. Hosting providers may keep ordinary request logs; we do not use those logs to build a profile.
When this policy changes, the date on this page changes with it. The same date is the sitemap lastmod for this URL.
Questions
Do you use cookies before I choose?
No. Nothing is written and no ad or recording script is requested before you answer the banner: the choice record this site writes itself goes to localStorage when you save or reject, Microsoft Clarity sets its own _clck and _clsk cookies only after you allow advertising and session recording, and Adsterra sets its own cookies only once its units load on that same permission. YouTube stays unloaded until permission and a video click. The game is never embedded here.
Where are the ad opt-outs?
Adsterra’s own policies (linked below) cover the units served here, including how to object to them. For the wider ad industry: https://adssettings.google.com for Google-served ads, https://optout.networkadvertising.org/ and https://www.youronlinechoices.com/ for participating networks. Refusing the advertising permission in the cookie banner keeps every ad request off this site in the first place.
