Privacy Policy
Last updated: 22 August 2026
This Privacy Policy explains how TopWebsites.lol (“TopWebsites”, “we”, “us”) collects, uses, and protects your information when you use TopWebsites.lol (the “Service”). By using the Service, you agree to this Policy.
1. Information we collect
- Email address — when you join the waitlist or create an account.
- Account details — such as your name and login credentials, where you create an account.
- Listing information — the website URL, business name, category, description, and logo you submit. This is largely public by design.
- Payment information — processed by third-party payment providers. We receive confirmation and limited transaction details (such as an order ID, amount, and status). We do not store your full card details.
- Usage and device data — such as pages visited, approximate location derived from IP, browser type, and interactions, collected through analytics and server logs.
- Cookies and similar technologies — used to keep you signed in and to understand how the Service is used.
2. How we use your information
- to provide, operate, and improve the Service;
- to process payments and activate bids and listings;
- to display listings, leaderboards, rankings, and statistics;
- to notify you about the launch, your listings, or account activity;
- to detect, prevent, and address fraud, abuse, and security issues; and
- to comply with legal obligations.
3. Legal bases
Where applicable law (such as the GDPR) requires it, we rely on: your consent (for example, joining the waitlist); performance of a contract (providing the Service you paid for); our legitimate interests (securing and improving the Service); and compliance with legal obligations.
4. Who we share information with
We do not sell your personal information. We share it only with service providers who help us run the Service, including:
- Hosting and database — e.g. Vercel and Neon;
- Content delivery and security — e.g. Cloudflare;
- Payment processing — e.g. PayPal (and other providers we may add);
- Analytics — e.g. our analytics provider; and
- Authorities — where required by law or to protect our rights or users.
These providers may process data in countries other than yours. Confirm this list matches the tools you actually use before publishing.
5. Public information
Listing details you submit — website, business name, category, logo, description, bid amount and position — are intended to be shown publicly on the Service and may appear in search engines and shared links. Do not submit anything you do not want to be public.
6. Data retention
We keep personal information for as long as needed to provide the Service and for legitimate business or legal purposes (for example, keeping payment records for accounting and dispute-handling). You can ask us to delete your account data, subject to records we must retain by law.
7. Security
We use reasonable technical and organisational measures — such as HTTPS, access controls, and secure handling of secrets — to protect your information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.
8. Your rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, or export your personal information, to object to or restrict certain processing, or to withdraw consent. To exercise these rights, email us at info@topwebsites.lol. You may also have the right to complain to your local data-protection authority.
9. Children
The Service is not intended for anyone under 18, and we do not knowingly collect information from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will remove it.
10. Changes to this Policy
We may update this Policy from time to time. Changes take effect when posted here, and the “last updated” date will change.
