International Cricket Council Privacy Policy
The main change adds a new "Sign in with Meta" option, letting the ICC receive your name, email, profile photo and Meta ID directly from Facebook/Instagram if you choose to log in that way. Everything else is administrative housekeeping — an updated revision date, a contact-email consolidation, and a bullet-point formatting fix.
New data collected if you use Meta login
If you choose to sign in with your Facebook or Instagram account, ICC will now receive personal details about you directly from Meta — your name, email address, profile picture, and a unique Meta ID — rather than you typing this information in yourself. This is optional (you can still register the normal way), but it's a new source of data ICC didn't collect before, and Meta itself remains a separate controller of your data with its own rules.
“This typically includes your name, email address, profile picture, unique Meta user ID and any other profile information you choose to share with us.”
What you can do — If you'd rather not share Meta profile data with ICC, register or log in using email/password instead of Meta SSO. If you've already used Meta SSO and want your data deleted, contact ICC using the details in the 'Contact Us' section — removing ICC access in your Meta settings alone won't delete data ICC already has.

| 93 | **5.6 Meta Single Sign‑On** | |
| 94 | ||
| 95 | **5.6.1** Our services allow you to register and log in to the ICC Websites using your Meta account (e.g. Facebook or Instagram) via Meta Single Sign‑On ("**Meta SSO**"). If you choose to do this, we will receive certain profile information from Meta about you, depending on your Meta account settings and the permissions you grant at the time of login. This typically includes your name, email address, profile picture, unique Meta user ID and any other profile information you choose to share with us. We do not receive your Meta password. | |
| 96 | ||
| 97 | **5.6.2** We use this personal information to create, administer and authenticate your ICC account, pre-populate your ICC profile so that you do not need to re-enter it manually, personalise your experience, communicate with you about the service, help keep your account secure and comply with applicable law and with Meta's Platform Terms. | |
| 98 | ||
| 99 | **5.6.3** You can manage or withdraw the permissions you have granted to us through your Meta account settings at any time. Withdrawing permissions may affect your ability to use certain features or to log in using Meta SSO, but will not affect the lawfulness of processing before withdrawal. | |
| 100 | ||
| 101 | **5.6.4** If you have used Meta SSO and would like us to delete personal information associated with your ICC account, you can contact us using the details in the "Contact Us" section below. We will handle your request in accordance with applicable law. Removing ICC from your Meta account settings may stop future sharing by Meta, but you may still need to contact us if you want us to delete personal information we have already received. | |
| 102 | ||
| 103 | **5.6.5** Meta acts as an independent controller of the personal information it processes in connection with Meta SSO. For more information about Meta's processing, please refer to [Meta's Privacy Policy](https://www.facebook.com/privacy/policy/). | |
+ ADDEDMeta treated as a separate, independent data controller The policy now clarifies that Meta controls and processes your data on its own terms once you use Meta SSO — separate from ICC's own privacy practices. | ||
