Privacy Commitment

About Us

Our website address is: 5toppick.com. We are dedicated to safeguarding your privacy and ensuring the protection of your personal data while you use our services.

Comments

When visitors post comments on our site, we collect the data provided in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help detect and prevent spam.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also known as a hash) may be shared with the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. You can review the Gravatar service privacy policy here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be visible to the public alongside your comment.

Media

If you upload images to the website, please avoid uploading images that contain embedded location data (EXIF GPS). Visitors to the site may download and extract any location data from these images.

Cookies

When you leave a comment on our site, you can opt to save your name, email address, and website in cookies. This makes it easier for you to fill out the information again when posting another comment. These cookies will remain for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to check if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is deleted when you close your browser.

Upon logging in, we will also set multiple cookies to save your login credentials and screen display preferences. Login cookies last for two days, while screen options cookies last for one year. If you choose “Remember Me,” your login will remain active for two weeks. If you log out, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be placed in your browser. This cookie does not contain any personal data and only indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after one day.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on our site may include embedded content (such as videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites operates exactly as if you visited those sites directly.

These external websites may collect data about you, use cookies, incorporate additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content. This includes tracking if you are logged into those sites.

Who We Share Your Data With

If you request a password reset, your IP address will be included in the reset email for security purposes to protect your account.

How Long We Retain Your Data

If you leave a comment, the comment and its metadata are kept indefinitely. This allows us to automatically recognize and approve follow-up comments rather than holding them in a moderation queue. For users who register on our website (if applicable), we store the personal details they provide in their user profile. All users can view, edit, or delete their personal data at any time (except for their username). Website administrators can also view and edit this information.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you can request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided. You can also ask us to erase any personal data we have about you. This does not apply to data we are required to retain for administrative, legal, or security reasons.

Where Your Data Is Sent

Visitor comments may be reviewed by an automated spam detection service, which helps us ensure the security and quality of our community interactions.

Additional Information

For any concerns regarding privacy or to exercise your data rights, please contact our privacy team via the contact form on our website. We typically respond to all privacy-related inquiries within 48 business hours.
