1. Information We Collect
AddSite.top is designed with privacy in mind. We do not require user registration or accounts. The only information we collect includes:
- IP Address: Temporarily stored to prevent spam and enforce the "5 views before posting" rule. IP logs are automatically cleared daily.
- Cookies: We use a single cookie (
addsite_views) to remember how many sites you have viewed. This cookie contains only a numeric counter and expires after 30 days. - Site Content: Screenshots, titles, descriptions, and URLs you submit for publication. This information becomes publicly visible on our platform.
- Browser User-Agent: Collected automatically by our server for security and analytics purposes. Not linked to your identity.
2. How We Use Your Information
We use collected information solely to:
- Operate the listing platform and display your site to visitors.
- Prevent spam, abuse, and duplicate submissions.
- Enforce fair usage rules (view requirements before submission).
- Improve user experience and platform performance.
- Protect the platform from malicious activity and automated bots.
3. Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, or share your personal information with third parties. Site content is publicly visible on our platform by design, but your IP address, submission metadata, and browsing data remain strictly private.
We may share anonymized, aggregated statistics (e.g., total number of sites, total views) for promotional purposes, but this data cannot be traced back to individual users.
4. Cookies
Our platform uses a single essential cookie:
addsite_views— stores the number of sites you have viewed (0 to 5). Required to unlock the submission form. Expires after 30 days.
You can delete this cookie at any time through your browser settings. Deleting it will reset your view counter, and you will need to view 5 sites again before submitting.
We do not use tracking cookies, advertising cookies, or third-party analytics cookies.
5. External Links
Our platform contains links to external websites submitted by users. We are not responsible for the privacy practices, content, or security of these third-party sites. We encourage you to read their privacy policies before providing any personal information or interacting with their services.
6. Data Security
We implement reasonable security measures to protect your information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These include:
- HTTPS encryption for all data transmission.
- Server-side validation of all user inputs.
- Automatic daily cleanup of temporary IP logs.
- File upload restrictions to prevent malicious content.
However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. We cannot guarantee absolute security.
7. Data Retention
We retain your data only as long as necessary:
- IP logs: Automatically deleted every 24 hours.
- View counter cookie: Expires after 30 days or when you successfully submit a site.
- Submitted sites: Stored indefinitely unless removed by you or by our moderation team.
8. Children's Privacy
AddSite.top is not intended for use by individuals under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us and we will take steps to remove such information.
9. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or for legal reasons. Changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date. Your continued use of the platform after changes constitutes acceptance of the new policy.
We encourage you to review this page periodically to stay informed about how we protect your information.
