Privacy Policy

FC Barcelona News informs users of this website about its policy regarding the processing and protection of personal data that may be collected through browsing or by contracting services via this site.

FC Barcelona News guarantees compliance with current personal data protection regulations: Regulation (EU) 2016/679 (GDPR) and Organic Law 3/2018 (LOPDGDD).

Use of this website implies acceptance of this privacy policy.

Data collection, purposes and processing

We may collect personal data when you contact us by email, when you complete forms on the site, or through the use of cookies and similar technologies (see the Cookie Policy).

Main purposes: handling requests, managing contacts and services, aggregated statistical analysis of browsing and, with your consent, personalization of content and advertising, as well as measurement of their performance.

Disclosure of information to third parties

We do not share personal data with third parties except where there is a legal obligation or where service provision requires a relationship with processors acting on our behalf (for example, hosting, analytics or advertising services). In such cases, contracts are in place to ensure GDPR compliance.

International transfers

Some providers may be located outside the EEA. In such cases, we ensure transfers through mechanisms valid under the GDPR, such as the European Commission’s Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or other appropriate safeguards.

Retention periods

  • Inquiries and support: up to 12 months from the last interaction.
  • Subscriptions/communications: until you request unsubscribe or withdraw consent.
  • Analytics: according to the tool’s configuration or applicable legal periods.
  • Consent records (CMP): for the time necessary to demonstrate compliance.
  • Security/logs: up to 12 months, unless incidents require longer retention.

Automated decisions and profiling

FC Barcelona News does not make automated decisions producing legal effects or similarly significant effects for the user. The personalization of advertising and/or content by our providers may be based on profiling (e.g., inferences about interests from your interactions), always in line with the choices you make in the consent banner. This may affect the relevance of the ads or content you see, but it does not produce legal effects on you. You can withdraw or modify your consent at any time via the permanent cookie settings link (CMP) in the footer.

User rights

You may exercise your rights of access, rectification, erasure, objection, restriction and portability, as well as withdraw consent at any time without retroactive effect.

Quick method to exercise them: write to [email protected] indicating the right you wish to exercise and a means to verify your identity. You can also manage your cookie/consent preferences from the “Privacy and cookie settings” link in the footer.

If you believe your rights have been violated, you may file a complaint with the Spanish Data Protection Agency (AEPD).
