Privacy & cookie notice
Last updated: 19 October 2026
Footy 501 is a free football trivia website at footy501.uk. This notice describes how information may be processed when you use the game.
Game use and technical information
To run the game and its worldwide completed-games counter, the website may send game-session identifiers and completion events to its hosting infrastructure. These are used to run the game and help prevent duplicate counts. Hosting providers may process technical information such as IP addresses, browser information and security logs to deliver and protect the site.
Advertising
Footy 501 has connected Google AdSense for website review. If advertising is approved and enabled, Google and its partners may use cookies or similar technologies to deliver, measure and, where you consent, personalise advertising. The relevant purposes, vendors and options will be explained in the consent message shown to eligible visitors.
For information about Google's data use, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.
Your advertising privacy choices
For UK and EEA visitors, advertising consent choices will be provided through a Google-certified consent-management platform when advertising is enabled. You should be able to accept, reject or manage the relevant optional advertising purposes. You may revisit those choices using the privacy controls provided by that platform.
If the consent-management message has not yet been enabled, no choices panel is available here. Advertising approval is pending.
External services and sharing
When you choose to share a result, your browser may open a sharing service or copy a message. That service's own privacy terms then apply. Links to third-party websites are subject to their respective privacy policies.
Retention and your rights
Technical and game-counter information is kept only as needed to operate, secure and measure the service, subject to hosting-provider retention practices. Depending on your location, you may have rights to access, correct, erase or object to certain personal-data processing, and to withdraw advertising consent.
