Privacy Policy
Last Updated: July 07, 2026
Welcome to Apostle Sports Media LLC (operating as “APSM,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). We operate as an independent sports directory and media platform. This Privacy Policy details how we collect, manage, protect, and utilize information when you visit our primary website located at www.apostlesportsmedia.com (the “Services”).
1. Information We Collect
We prioritize data minimization. We do not collect or request sensitive personal information (such as racial origins, political beliefs, or health data).
A. Personal Information You Voluntarily Disclose
We collect limited personal information that you provide voluntarily when contacting our administration directly via email or engaging with promotional features:
- Contact Data: First and last names, email addresses, and communication histories.
- Payment Processing Data: If you purchase advertising slots or premium directory features, all transactions are processed securely via third-party gateways (e.g., PayPal). APSM never views, stores, or handles raw debit or credit card numbers, billing addresses, or security codes.
B. Data Collected Automatically via Site Analytics
When you browse our directory, certain diagnostic and performance metrics are collected automatically to maintain site stability and monitor internal performance:
- Log and Usage Metrics: Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, browser software types, operating system types, language configurations, referral URLs, time stamps, and specific page views.
- Device Characteristics: Mobile device types, hardware models, and broad geographical indicators (country or state-level locations mapped via IP).
2. How We Process Your Data
We use collected server information strictly for legitimate commercial intents, including:
- Optimizing Site Architecture: Reviewing log files to identify broken internal link maps, template errors, and server response times.
- Personalized Manual Ad Placements: Serving relevant commercial marketing blocks within designated manual ad zones throughout the site.
- User Feedback Loops: Managing direct communications when you contact our editorial desk at apostlesportsmedia@gmail.com.
3. Cookies and Automated Tracking
Like most ad-supported media platforms, we deploy standard browser cookies, tracking pixels, and web beacons to monitor traffic volume and user dwell time across different directory nodes.
You can modify your browser settings to completely disable cookie acceptance. However, rejecting cookies may cause layout components or specific internal tools to render incorrectly.
4. Data Sharing and Third-Party Links
We do not rent, sell, or trade personal user information to outside brokers.
Our articles frequently contain outbound hyperlinks to official athletic contracts, real estate listings, and third-party sports business platforms. We hold no authority over external privacy frameworks. We strongly recommend reviewing the privacy notices of outbound URLs before interacting with their services.
5. Minor Privacy Protections
Our content is tailored strictly for sports business, executive contracts, and public corporate data. We do not knowingly harvest, collect, or target tracking data from children under the age of 13. If we discover that tracking loops have stored minor data, it will be scrubbed immediately from our databases.
6. United States Regional Privacy Compliance
Depending on your local state jurisdiction (such as California, Virginia, or Texas), you retain distinct statutory data access rights under state consumer privacy regulations. These legal entitlements allow you to:
- Request Access: Review what specific data structures our systems have tracked.
- Request Correction: Modify inaccurate data or updated info blocks.
- Request Deletion: Command the total removal of all stored contact histories from our internal servers.
7. Contacting Our Administrative Desk
If you have specific regulatory concerns, compliance questions, or wish to command a total deletion of your communication logs, contact our operations manager directly:
