Privacy Policy

Honest Line (honestlinesports.com) is a sports prediction and information site published by ClearStack Studio. There are no user accounts and no registration — you never need an email address or password to read anything here.

Like almost every website, our hosting provider keeps standard server logs: your IP address, browser type, the pages you visit, and when. We use those logs to run and secure the site, not to identify or profile individual readers. IP addresses are also used briefly to rate-limit leaderboard submissions and prevent abuse.

Our pick'em games, bet tracker, and leaderboard display name are saved in your browser's local storage so the site can remember them between visits. That information stays on your device — it is never sent to us while you browse. You can delete it at any time by clearing this site's cookies and site data in your browser settings.

Joining the leaderboard is optional. If you choose to submit a card, the display name you pick and your picks for that week or day are stored on our servers so your record can be graded and shown. Your display name and record are public on the leaderboard — please don't use a name that identifies you personally if you don't want it visible.

We use cookies and local storage for site function, such as remembering the picks described above. Advertising on this site is served by Google AdSense.

Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website and other websites. Google's use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to this site and/or other sites on the Internet. Google also uses the DoubleClick (DART) cookie for ad serving; visitors may opt out of the DART cookie by visiting Google's Ads Settings.

You may opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google's Ads Settings (https://www.google.com/settings/ads). You can also opt out of some third-party vendors' use of cookies for personalized advertising at https://www.aboutads.info.

Other than Google AdSense for advertising and our hosting provider for delivering the site, we do not share visitor information with third parties. The sources we use for scores, lines, and statistics receive no personal information about our visitors.

We do not sell personal information.

This site is not directed at children under 13. Because the content discusses sports betting, it is intended for adults 21 and over, consistent with our disclaimers page.

If we change this policy, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Questions about this policy can be sent to helloclearstackstudio@gmail.com.
