This Privacy Policy explains how DFWWorldCup2026.com (“we”, “us”, or “our”) collects, uses, and shares information when you use our website and services.
1. Information we collect
- Information you provide: email address, phone number (optional), business details, language preference, country, interests, and any other information you submit through our forms (alerts signup, vendor signup, contact form).
- Payment information: if you subscribe to a vendor plan, payment is processed by Stripe. We never store full card numbers — Stripe handles all payment processing under its own privacy and security framework.

2. How we use information
- To send the alerts and updates you opted into.
- To process vendor subscriptions and bill via Stripe.
- To approve and publish vendor listings.
- To improve our site, content, and the visitor experience.
- To respond to contact form submissions and lead inquiries.
3. Information sharing
We never sell your personal information. We share information only with service providers who help us operate the site (Stripe for payments, SendGrid for email delivery, Google Analytics for measurement), and when required by law.
4. Your rights
You can unsubscribe from any email list at any time using the footer link in our emails, or reply STOP to any SMS. To request access to, correction of, or deletion of your information, email contact@thekeybot.com.
5. SMS / text messaging
When you opt in to receive SMS messages (e.g. via the alerts signup form or the vendor SMS opt-in on /vendors/join), we collect the mobile phone number you provide and use it solely to deliver the specific message types you consented to.

- Consent is not a condition of any purchase. Opting in is voluntary.
6. Cookies
We use cookies for analytics and to remember preferences (such as language selection). You can disable cookies in your browser settings. Disabling them may break some features.
