Privacy Policy

Top5soft (“we”, “our”) respects your privacy. This policy explains what we collect, why, and the choices you have. If anything is unclear, contact us at privacy@top5soft.com.

Information we collect

Visitor analytics. We use privacy-respecting analytics to understand which articles are read and how the site performs. The data is aggregated and does not identify individual visitors.

Comments. When you leave a comment, we store the name, email, and any text you provided so we can publish the comment and detect spam. Your email is not displayed publicly.

Account data. If you register for an account, we store the username and email you provide. You can edit or delete this information at any time from your profile.

Server logs. Our hosting provider records standard access logs (IP, user agent, request path) for security and performance monitoring. Logs are retained for 30 days.

How we use information

To publish and moderate comments, secure the site, debug issues, and improve our content. We do not sell personal data.

Cookies

We use a small number of cookies. Strictly necessary cookies keep you logged in and remember preferences. Analytics cookies, if enabled, are set only after consent. Details and controls are in our Cookie Policy.

Third parties

Articles may include embedded media (videos, social posts) from third-party services. These services may set their own cookies and process data under their own policies. We link out to retailers through affiliate networks; clicking those links may pass an anonymous referral identifier to the merchant. See our Affiliate Disclosure.

Your rights

If you are in the EU, UK, California, or another jurisdiction with data rights, you may request access, correction, deletion, or export of your data. Email privacy@top5soft.com and we will respond within 30 days.

Children

This site is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children.

Changes

We may update this policy as the site evolves. Material changes will be flagged at the top of this page.
