Server-side tools.
We may use server-side tools to track events through our website’s server, rather than through your browser. For example, we use Facebook Conversions API to improve the accuracy and performance of our Facebook ads by providing more complete data for ad optimization by creating a connection between Kickers and the Meta systems without the use of cookies. Server events are linked to a Meta Pixel ID and are processed like web events sent via pixel. Web server events are used in measurement, reporting, and optimization in a similar way as browser pixel events.

The data that we collect from you may be transferred to, and stored at, a destination outside the European Economic Area ("EEA"), including in countries where you may have fewer legal rights than you do under the laws in your own country.
