Privacy Policy

This website is operated by the Small Side All India Football Federation ("SSAIFF", "we", "us"), New Delhi, India. We are the data fiduciary for personal data collected through this website. You can reach us at info@ssaiff.org.

We only collect what we need to run the federation and this website:

• Contact and registration details you send us, such as name, email, phone number, state, city, club or association, and your message.
• Player information needed for competitions, such as date of birth, age category and team, when registrations open.
• Technical data such as browser type, device and pages visited, collected through standard server logs.
• Photos and video taken at SSAIFF events, which may show players, officials and spectators.

• To answer enquiries and process registrations for players, teams and associations.
• To organise competitions, verify age categories and publish fixtures, results and rankings.
• To share news and event updates you have asked to receive.
• To keep this website secure and working properly.

Many of our competitions are for players under 18. We process a minor's personal data only with verifiable consent from a parent or lawful guardian, and we do not use children's data for tracking, behavioural monitoring or targeted advertising.

We do not sell personal data. We share it only where needed: with affiliated state associations and event organisers for the competitions you enter, with service providers who host this website or send email on our behalf, and with authorities where the law requires it.

We keep personal data only as long as needed for the purpose it was collected for, or as required by law. Enquiries are normally deleted within 24 months; competition records may be kept longer for results and eligibility history.

You may ask to access, correct or erase your personal data, withdraw consent, or nominate someone to exercise these rights for you. Write to info@ssaiff.org and we will respond within a reasonable time. If you are not satisfied, you may complain to the Data Protection Board of India.

This website does not use advertising or tracking cookies. Your browser may store small technical preferences needed for the site to work. If we add analytics in future, we will update this policy first.

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it last changed.
