Cookies used by the Toronto Soccer League website
The Toronto Soccer League website (this site) uses a small number of cookies and similar browser storage. Analytics and marketing cookies donotload until you grant consent through the Cookie Settings dialog described below. If you never grant consent, no analytics cookies are set — Google’s Consent Mode v2 may still receive cookieless pings that do not identify you.
Essential (always on)
- Session and preference storage used to keep the site working — for example, remembering which league category you last filtered to.
Analytics (only after consent)
- Google Analytics 4, delivered through Google Tag Manager. Used for aggregate reporting on which pages load, which leagues get clicked, and how mobile vs. desktop visitors reach us. See the event list below.
Marketing (only after consent)
- If enabled, Google Ads measurement to attribute paid-media clicks to registrations that begin on this site and complete on the RecRivals registration platform.
What is measured on this website
When you consent to analytics, this site sends the following event categories to Google Analytics 4. No form field values, phone numbers, email addresses, payment information, or names are ever sent.
- Page views— one event per page you view, including URL, page title, and a coarse page type (e.g. “home”, “landing_mens”, “help_faq”).
- League discovery — which lists of leagues you see, which filter you choose (All / Mens / Coed), and which league card you click.
- Registration intent — the moment you tap Team Signup or Solo Signup on a league card. This records which league you chose and the listed price, and marks that you are heading over to the RecRivals platform to complete registration.
- Account intent — the moment you tap Login or a Login link on this site. The confirmed login itself happens on the RecRivals platform (see the third-party note below).
- App-download intent— clicks on “Download the App” buttons and on the App Store and Google Play badges.
- Contact intent — clicks on phone (
tel:) and email (mailto:) links. The phone number and email address themselves are never transmitted as analytics parameters — only the fact that a contact link was clicked and roughly where on the site. - Newsletter signup — sent only after a successful signup is confirmed by the mailing-list provider. The email address you enter is never sent to Analytics.
Cross-domain measurement
The Toronto Soccer League website (
torontosoccer.caandtsl.recrivals.com) and the RecRivals platform (recrivals.com,www.recrivals.com) are configured as a single measured surface. If you consent to analytics, an identifier may be preserved on your device so an outbound click from the Toronto Soccer League site to the RecRivals registration flow is not counted as a new session. This identifier is Google’s standard measurement identifier (the_gacookie /_glURL parameter); it is not tied to your name, email, or payment information.What is NEVER sent to Analytics
- Contents of any form field on this site (contact form, newsletter email).
- Phone numbers or email addresses of any kind.
- Payment card numbers, expiry dates, CVV/CVC, or any other payment details.
- Names, addresses, dates of birth, or other personal identifiers.
Reopening Cookie Settings
You can change your consent choice at any time by opening theCookie Settings link in the site footer. The link reopens the cookie preferences dialog served by the shared RecRivals platform on this site. You can also clear cookies for this site in your browser settings; the next page load will treat you as a new visitor and present the default state (all optional categories denied) until you make a new choice.
Third-party responsibility (RecRivals)
Registration, sign-in, account management, and payment happen on the RecRivals platform — not on this website. Any analytics recorded during those steps (including confirmed login, account creation, checkout, and confirmed purchase events) is set by RecRivals under RecRivals’ own privacy practices. The Toronto Soccer League website records only that you clicked a link that took you there.
Your information may be processed and stored in countries outside your residence, including the United States and Canada. We ensure appropriate safeguards are in place for international transfers:
- Adequacy Decisions: Transfers to countries with adequate data protection
- Standard Contractual Clauses: EU-approved contracts for international transfers
- Privacy Shield Certification: For US-based service providers (where applicable)
- Binding Corporate Rules: Internal policies for multinational service providers
