Football Club Ticketing Service · Roboticket Platform · Last updated: 10.09.2026

1. Data Controller & Processor Roles

1.1 The Data Controller responsible for processing personal data on this ticketing website under Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) is the football club operating the website (hereinafter the "Club", "Controller", or "We"). Each club's specific legal name, registered address, and registration details are published on its own ticketing site.

1.2 For data protection inquiries or to exercise statutory rights, contact our Data Protection Team at gdpr@roboticket.com.

1.3 The ticketing platform is hosted and technically operated by Roboticket (the "Platform Provider"), acting as a Data Processor under Article 28 GDPR pursuant to a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) concluded with the Club. Roboticket processes fan data solely on behalf of the Club to provide ticketing infrastructure, stadium seat mapping, cart management, and purchase fulfillment.

2. Cookies and Related Tracking Technologies

2.1 Cookies are small text files stored on your device (computer, smartphone, tablet) when visiting our ticketing website. They enable core system functionality, session security, and preference retention.

2.2 In addition to standard cookies, the Roboticket platform uses complementary tracking technologies:

  • Local storage & session storage: browser-based memory used to maintain shopping cart items (e.g. GoogleTagManagerCart) for seamless e-commerce tracking.
  • Tracking pixels & tags: code snippets or small graphic elements that notify analytics or marketing providers when specific match ticket pages or purchase steps are completed.
  • Server-side return identifiers: one-time tokens (e.g. Pixel_PurchaseTracking, GTMDataLayer_PurchaseTracking) that inform the system upon return from payment gateways to fire appropriate conversion events.

3. Legal Bases and Voluntary Consent

3.1 Storing information on your device or accessing stored data requires active consent under Article 5(3) of the ePrivacy Directive (2002/58/EC) and national implementing legislation, except where strictly necessary to deliver the ticketing service requested.

  • Strictly necessary cookies: operated under Art. 6(1)(b) GDPR (contract performance for ticket purchase) and Art. 6(1)(f) GDPR (legitimate interest in cybersecurity and fraud prevention). Consent is not required.
  • Analytics & marketing cookies: executed only after obtaining your explicit, voluntary consent under Art. 6(1)(a) GDPR. Refusing consent does not impede your ability to purchase tickets or access your fan account.

5. Integrated Third-Party Tools & Joint Controllership

5.1 Google Analytics 4 (GA4)

Google Analytics helps us analyze how fans navigate match ticket sales and identify purchase funnel bottlenecks. Activation is strictly governed by the robo_ga consent cookie. Transmitted data includes truncated IP addresses, device/browser technical specs, match page views, and non-personal e-commerce event metrics (ticket category, transaction value, item count). No direct personal identifiers (names, emails, payment card numbers) are transmitted to Google.

5.2 Meta Pixel (Facebook Pixel) & Joint Controllership

The Meta Pixel measures advertising effectiveness and enables retargeting for upcoming fixtures. Activation is strictly controlled by the robo_fbp consent cookie. Regarding the collection and transmission of event data to Meta Platforms Ireland Limited, the Club and Meta act as Joint Controllers under Art. 26 GDPR pursuant to Meta's Controller Addendum. Meta remains independently responsible for subsequent processing.

5.3 IAB TCF 2.2 Framework Standard

Where enabled, the ticketing website supports the IAB Transparency & Consent Framework (TCF 2.2), encoding consent choices into an industry-standard TC string accessible via window.__tcfapi.

6. International Data Transfers

Third-party tools (Google, Meta) may transfer technical data to servers in the United States. Transfers are safeguarded under the European Commission's EU–U.S. Data Privacy Framework adequacy decision or Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs).

7. Managing Consent & Statutory Fan Rights

7.1 You have the right to modify or withdraw your consent for optional cookies at any time. You can adjust your consent preferences through the privacy and consent management settings available on the ticketing website.

7.2 You hold statutory rights under GDPR: access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and the right to lodge a complaint with your competent Supervisory Authority (e.g. UODO in Poland or the equivalent EU regulator).
