Privacy Policy

last updated August 2026

PAHSODDSMAKER ("we," "us") runs pahsoddsmaker.com, a free-to-play site for picks and information on Pennsylvania high school and college sports. This page explains what we collect and how it's used. We keep it short and plain.

What we collect

Account info — a username, an email address, and a password (stored only as a secure hash, never in plain text). You provide these when you register.
Your activity — the picks you make, contest and pool entries, forum posts, and club memberships, so we can run leaderboards and standings.
Standard server logs — routine technical data (like IP address and browser type) that virtually all websites record.

We ask for an email only to run your account and the free weekly contest. We never sell your personal information, and we never ask for payment to play.

Cookies & advertising

We use cookies to keep you signed in and to remember your session. This site is supported by advertising through Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your visits to this and other sites. You can control ad personalization at Google Ads Settings, and learn more about how Google uses data at policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites. Visitors in the EEA, UK, and Switzerland are shown a consent choice before personalized ads are served.

Payments

If you subscribe to a premium tier ("The Desk"), payment is processed by Stripe. We never see or store your card details — Stripe handles that directly. We only record whether your subscription is active.

Your choices

You can manage or clear cookies in your browser at any time.
You can opt out of personalized advertising via Google Ads Settings.
To delete your account and associated data, reach out on X/Twitter (@PAHSOdds).

Children

This site is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect information from them.
