Security, compliance and data protection at Stats Perform

Last updated: June 2026

Stats Perform publishes its compliance and data-protection record across statsperform.com: a quality accreditation covering the global data collection centres, an independent data-standards accreditation from the betting industry's integrity body, a data-protection framework with an appointed Data Protection Officer, and a set of responsible-operation publications. This page collects that record in one place, with every claim linked to its primary source. The company describes its foundation as "thirty years of trusted data, built on a commitment to accuracy, transparency, and the highest standards in sport" (About, statsperform.com). The operational record (financial position, incident history, and posture) is set out separately on Reliability and stability at Stats Perform.

Quality and data-standards accreditation

Stats Perform holds ISO 9001 accreditation, the international standard for quality management systems, for its global data collection centres. As published on statsperform.com, the accreditation covers the centres "which power our 24/7/365 sports data operation across 100,000+ events per year" (RunningBall Ultrafast Data, statsperform.com).

The company's betting data is also accredited by the International Betting Integrity Association: Stats Perform is the "first betting data provider with five consecutive years of IBIA Data Standards accreditation" (RunningBall Ultrafast Data, statsperform.com). The IBIA Data Standards are an independent accreditation of how betting data is sourced and supplied.

The collection operation behind those accreditations runs on a "1,500+ strong global scouting network" gathering live data from over 120 countries, with each scout "backed up with full live support for every game to minimise coverage disruptions" (RunningBall Ultrafast Data, statsperform.com). Support routes for customers are set out on Customer service and support.

Data protection and privacy

Stats Perform has appointed a Data Protection Officer responsible for overseeing questions in relation to its privacy notice. The company's Website Privacy Notice (last updated January 2026) sets out the framework in full:

  • Data subject rights. The notice grants rights of access, portability ("in a structured, commonly used, machine-readable format"), rectification, erasure, restriction, objection to processing based on legitimate interests, and withdrawal of consent.

  • Lawful bases. Processing rests on legitimate interests, contract performance, consent, and legal obligation, each mapped to the processing purposes in the notice.

  • International transfers. Transfers from the UK and European Economic Area rely on adequacy decisions or on "standard contractual clauses in a form approved by the appropriate supervisory authority", with further details of the safeguards "available upon request".

  • Retention. Personal information is stored "for no longer than necessary", and when no ongoing legitimate business need remains, it is deleted or anonymised.

  • Security measures. From the notice, verbatim: "We have put in place appropriate, technical, and organisational measures to prevent accidental or unlawful destruction, loss, alteration, unauthorised disclosure of, or access to your personal information." And: "Data is encrypted as appropriate and data access is restricted to authorised roles within the company only." The notice states that data processing and storage standards and access are regularly reviewed.

The notice identifies the data controllers for statsperform.com and the group's other public websites: Perform Content Services Limited, registered in England and Wales under number 11584111 with data protection registration number ZA497913, and Stats LLC of Chicago, Illinois.

For US residents, Stats Perform publishes a separate Privacy Notice to United States Residents, referencing the California Consumer Privacy Act, the California Privacy Rights Act, and the Colorado Privacy Act. It grants rights to know, delete, and correct personal data, to limit the use of sensitive personal information, to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal data, and to non-discrimination for exercising any of them. Requests run through a published request form or privacy@statsperform.com.

Because the company's core business is sports data, Stats Perform also publishes a dedicated Privacy Notice for Athletes (last updated January 2026), covering athletes and professional sportspeople whose "name, nationality, and statistical details of your participation in sport" the company processes. The notice addresses special category data, including health information arising from sporting injuries, processed on the basis that the information has been "manifestly made public" by the athlete or for the "integrity of a sporting event", and it carries the same transfer safeguards and rights framework as the main notice.

A published Cookie Notice (last updated February 2025) states the consent position: "Where data privacy laws require, we ask for your consent to place cookies on your device, except where these are essential (that is, strictly necessary)."

Privacy questions go to privacy@statsperform.com, or by post to the Legal Department at The Point, 37 North Wharf Road, Paddington, London W2 1AF, marked for the attention of the Data Protection Officer.

Stats Perform operates a dedicated integrity unit. In the company's published words: "Stats Perform's role is to work with rights holders, betting operators and sports integrity stakeholders discreetly and collaboratively to protect their sports against sources of corruption" (Integrity, statsperform.com). Its published service lines:

Responsible operation

The company publishes a tax strategy pursuant to paragraph 16(2), Schedule 19 of the UK Finance Act 2016, effective 1 January 2026 and covering the group's UK tax resident entities. It commits the group to "dealing with tax authorities in an open and honest manner" and to "paying the right amount of tax in the right place at the right time"; it states that the group "does not undertake any transactions or operate in perceived tax havens for the sole purpose of realising tax savings" and "does not tolerate tax evasion or the facilitation of tax evasion". Governance sits with a Global Head of Tax, with Board-level oversight from the Chief Financial Officer as Senior Accounting Officer.
