Last Updated: 28 May 2025

1. Introduction

Welcome to Odds Scanner’s Cookie Policy (the “Policy”).

We, Odds Scanner Group Ltda, CNPJ: 59.771.671/0001-07, Rua Tabapuã, 827, andar 3, conj 31, sala 7, Itaim Bibi, CEP: 04.533-013, São Paulo, SP, Brasil (referred to as “Odds Scanner”; “we”; “us”; or “our” in this Policy) collect aggregate information about the users of our website: https://oddsscanner.com (the “Site”).

Whenever you use our online services, cookies and other tracking technologies can be used in various ways, such as to make our Site work, to analyse traffic or for advertisement purposes. These technologies are either used by us directly, or by our business partners, including third party service providers and advertisers whom we work with.

This may also involve collecting and using your user Internet Protocol Address (an “IP Address”).

In that respect, this Policy provides you with clear and comprehensive information about the cookies and other tracking technologies we use over the Site and the purposes for using them. You do not need to allow cookies to visit most of our Site. However, enabling cookies may allow for a more tailored browsing experience and is required for certain parts of the Site to work.

Please read the following carefully to understand how and why we use cookies and other tracking technology and collect your IP Address! If you do not accept or agree to the practices described in this Policy, you must exit the Site immediately!

To review the privacy policy that apply to visitors of the Site, please see our Privacy Policy.

2. IP Address

              2.1.        What happens when you visit the site

Every time you connect to the internet or, if you use an always-on connection, such as broadband or ADSL, when you boot up or restart your computer, you are automatically assigned a unique identifying number known as an IP Address. This IP Address, which contains, amongst others, information regarding the location of your computer on the internet (your country of origin) and the name of your internet service provider (“ISP”), is automatically logged by our Site.

              2.2.        What is an IP Address?

When you first started your internet session (i.e. your computer connected to the internet), your computer was automatically assigned a unique number (normally in the region of 9 or 10 decimal numbers), known as an IP Address. This is your computer’s unique address on the internet. Without an IP Address, websites would not be able to deliver their respective content to you, given that they would not be able find your computer on the internet.

Since each time you disconnect and reconnect to the internet a new IP Address is automatically assigned to your computer, IP Addresses are not inherently capable of identifying you as an individual (at least, by themselves and not combined with other identifiers). An IP Address does, however, contain information regarding the location of your computer on the internet (your country of origin), and the name of your ISP. Such information, when combined with other available information, could potentially allow for your identification. For these reasons, EU Data Protection Law treats IP Addresses as personal data with the resulting protections.

              2.3.        How do we collect your IP Address

Each time you visit a page on our Site, your computer sends out a message asking for the requested content to be delivered. This message sent by your computer also encloses your IP Address as a form of “return address”, so that the Site may find your computer in order to send it that requested content. Our webserver automatically logs all these messages.

              2.4.        What do we do with your IP Address?

When we log your IP Address, the data collected is grouped up with the other logged IP Addresses in order to provide us with the statistics on the geographic location of the visitors to our Site, how long they stay on the Site, which are the most viewed pages and for other statistical reasons that may be relevant to us.

We gather your IP address automatically and store it in log files. These files also contain information relating to your browser type, ISP, operating system, date/time stamp, clickstream data and the files viewed on the Website. Collecting this type of information allows us to generate aggregate information for the purposes of developing our Site, including in terms of overall user trends and activities online (such as the number of unique visitors, pages accessed and viewed most frequently or the search terms entered). It also allows us to administer the Website, diagnose any potential server problems, analyse visitor trends and statistics, and generally helps us to provide you with a better internet experience.

IP Addresses are not stored for longer than necessary for the above-stated purposes.

3. COOKIES

              3.1.        Information about our use of Cookies

We have implemented and activated cookies on the Site to distinguish you from other users. These cookies allow us to analyse trends and administer the Site, to help provide you with a good experience when browsing and also to improve it at the same time.

A cookie is a small file of letters and numbers that we store on your browser or the hard drive of your computer or on your mobile device, if you agree to let us do so. A cookie enables the website to remember users that have already visited. Without a cookie, every time you open a new web page, the server where that page is stored will treat you like a completely new visitor.

So-called "first party cookies" are cookies which are served by the entity operating the domain through which the cookie is served. Our own cookies are therefore "first party cookies". In case we allow others to service cookies through our Site, these cookies are so-called "third party cookies". In addition to the above, there is also a difference between "session cookies" and "permanent cookies". Session cookies will only exist until you close your browser. Permanent cookies have a longer lifespan and are not automatically deleted once you close your browser.

Cookies are used for different purposes. They allow you to be recognised as the same user across the pages of a website, between websites or when you use an app. Cookies allow us to remember your custom preferences such as your language preference and allow you to complete tasks without having to re-enter your information when browsing. The types of information that we collect through cookies include IP address, device ID, viewed pages, browser type, browsing information, operating system, ISP, timestamp, whether you have responded to an advertisement, the referring URL, and features used or activities engaged on the Site.

Our Site uses cookies for different purposes.

KEY CONCEPTS

  • Strictly Necessary Cookies: these are cookies that are required for the operation of the Site. They include cookies that enable you to log into secure areas of the Site.
  • Analytical Cookies: they allow us to recognise and count the number of visitors and see how visitors move around the Site and gain insight on how our visitors use it. This means we can find out what works and what does not, optimize and improve our Site, understand the effectiveness of advertisements and communications, and ensure we continue to be interesting and relevant. The data we gather can include which web pages you have viewed, which referring/exit pages you have entered and left from, the number of clicks you make on a given page, your mouse movements and scrolling activity, the search words you use and the text you enter into various fields. This helps us to improve the manner in which our Site works, such as by ensuring that users are finding what they are looking for in a seamless and straightforward manner.
  • Functionality Cookies: these are used to recognise you when you return to the Site, to help you to use them efficiently and effectively. This enables us to personalise our content for you, greet you by name and remember your preferences (for example, your choice of language or region) and searches. We may also use cookies to remember your registration information so that you do not have to retype your login credentials each time you visit our site. Passwords will, however, always be encrypted. These functional cookies are not strictly necessary for the functioning of the Site, but they add functionality and enhance your experience as a user or visitor.
  • Targeting Cookies: these cookies record your visit to the Site, the pages you have visited and the links you have followed. We will use this information to make the Site, together with the advertising displayed on them, more relevant to your interests. We may also share this information with third parties for this particular purpose.
  • Technical Cookies: we try to give our visitors an advanced, user-friendly website that adapts automatically to their needs and wishes. To achieve this, we use technical cookies to show you the Site, to make them function correctly, to create your user account and sign you in. These technical cookies are absolutely necessary for the Site to function properly, i.e. a ‘strictly necessary cookie’.
  • Third Party Cookies: these are cookies that are set by a domain other than that of the website being visited by the user. If a user visits a website and another entity sets a cookie through that website, this would be a third-party cookie.
  • Commercial Cookies: we use third-party cookies as well as our own to display personalised advertisements on the Site and other websites. This is called "retargeting," and it is based on browsing activities, such as the pages which you have searched.
