Account and identity
No account is required to use FMCareerLab. The application does not ask for your email address, name, password, or a user profile.
Desktop data
FM26 game data is read locally from the live process on your computer. Save contents, player data, and memory dumps are not sent to an FMCareerLab server.
Settings, logs, and transaction journals remain in the application's local data folder on your computer.
Desktop update checks
Each time the desktop application starts, it makes one request for a small release manifest so it can tell you when a newer version is available. The request does not include an account, installation identifier, FM process information, save data, player data, or application activity. As with any web request, the hosting provider may process standard connection metadata for security and delivery.
Website
This website does not create accounts or advertising profiles. The hosting provider may retain standard short-lived server logs for security and service operation.
Website statistics
Firebase Analytics is loaded only after you select Allow Firebase Analytics. It measures page views, download clicks, and interactions with the voluntary-support panel, together with standard browser, device, session, and approximate-region information supplied by Google Analytics.
If you select Aggregate only, the Firebase Analytics SDK remains inactive. FMCareerLab instead increments only allowlisted daily and all-time counters for page views, download buttons, and support networks. The counter data contains no cookies, persistent visitor identifiers, IP addresses, user agents, or individual event records. Firebase infrastructure may still process standard connection logs for security and service operation.
Neither mode sends Football Manager career data, player data, wallet identities, copied wallet addresses, or desktop application activity. Your choice is stored locally in your browser and can be changed through Analytics settings in the footer.
Voluntary support
The support page displays static public receiving addresses for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana. FMCareerLab does not connect to a visitor's wallet and does not store private keys, recovery phrases, card details, or user accounts. On-chain transactions and their destination addresses are public by nature.
