We respect your privacy and are committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and what rights you have under UK data protection laws.
Who We Are
Our website address is: https://xfightingchampionship.com (“we”, “our”, “us”).
Information We Collect
Comments
When visitors leave comments on our site, we collect the data shown in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect spam.
An anonymised string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After your comment is approved, your profile picture is visible to the public alongside your comment.
Media Uploads
If you upload images to the website, avoid uploading images with embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site can download and extract location data from images.
Cookies
- If you leave a comment, you may choose to save your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so you don’t need to re-enter details when leaving another comment. These cookies last for one year.
- If you visit our login page, we set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. It contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.
- When you log in, we set several cookies to save your login details and display preferences. Login cookies last for two days; screen options cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me”, your login will persist for two weeks. Logging out removes login cookies.
- If you edit or publish an article, a cookie will be saved in your browser. It contains no personal data and simply records the post ID of the article you edited. It expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles). Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you visited the other site directly.
These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the content, including if you are logged into their website.
Who We Share Your Data With
- If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email.
- Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.
How Long We Retain Your Data
- Comments and their metadata are kept indefinitely, so we can recognise and approve follow-up comments automatically.
- For registered users (if applicable), we store the personal information provided in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal information at any time (except the username). Website administrators can also view and edit that information.
Your Data Protection Rights
Under UK data protection law, you have the right to:
- Access – Request a copy of the personal data we hold about you.
- Correction – Ask us to correct any information you believe is inaccurate or incomplete.
- Erasure – Ask us to delete your personal data, where we are legally permitted to do so.

Where Your Data Is Sent
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service. Some data may be processed outside the UK or European Economic Area (EEA) where data protection laws may differ, but we ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place.
