Privacy Policy

Last updated: April 2026

This policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and how we protect your privacy when you use WorldStage.

Minimal data collection

We only collect the information needed to process your order and deliver your tickets.

Payment data stays with Stripe

Card details are processed directly by Stripe and never stored on our servers.

Your data, your rights

Contact us anytime to access, update, or request deletion of your personal information.

Information we collect

We collect the personal information you provide when placing an order: your name, email address, phone number, country of residence, communication preferences, and any optional travel notes you include at checkout.

We also collect standard technical information when you visit our site, including your IP address, browser type, device information, and pages visited. This data helps us maintain site performance and security.

How we use your information

Your personal information is used to process and fulfill your order, coordinate ticket delivery through FIFA's transfer system, and communicate with you about your purchase.

We may also use your contact information to send order updates, delivery notifications, and event changes that affect your tickets. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

Payment information

All card payments are processed by Stripe, a PCI Level 1 certified payment processor. Your card number, expiration date, and security code are transmitted directly to Stripe and are never stored on or accessible from WorldStage servers.

We retain only the information necessary to identify your transaction: a payment reference ID, the amount charged, and the payment status.

Cookies and tracking

We use essential cookies to maintain your session and shopping basket while you browse the site. These cookies are necessary for the platform to function and cannot be disabled.

We may use analytics tools to understand how visitors use our site. This data is aggregated and does not personally identify you.

Third-party services

We share information with third parties only as necessary to provide our services. This includes Stripe for payment processing and email service providers for order confirmations and delivery notifications.

These providers are contractually required to protect your information and use it only for the purposes we specify.

Data retention

We retain your order information for as long as necessary to fulfill your purchase, provide customer support, and comply with legal obligations. After this period, your data is securely deleted or anonymized.

You may request deletion of your personal data at any time by contacting our privacy team. We will process your request promptly, subject to any legal retention requirements.

Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete the personal information we hold about you. You may also object to or restrict certain processing activities.

To exercise any of these rights, please contact us using the privacy contact listed on this page. We aim to respond to all requests within 30 days.
