PRIVACY
POLICY
Topsites takes your privacy seriously, and has created
this Privacy Policy in order to demonstrate our firm commitment to
online privacy. Please learn more about our information gathering
and dissemination practices, and our use of personally
identifiable information.
IP
Addresses
We
may use your IP address to help diagnose problems with our
site or web server, and for the general administration of
our website.
Cookies
Upon
your first visit to this web site, a "cookie" is
sent to your computer. A cookie is a tiny file that identifies
you as a unique user. It stores personal preferences and user
data, however, in no way does this tell us who you are. Topsites
has two primary uses for its cookies.
First,
we use cookies to track special offers and promotions that
may be presented to you as you navigate our website. This
is done so that you are not presented with the same special
offers and/or promotions over and over, or after you have
indicated you are not interested.
Secondly,
we use cookies as part of our authentication system when you
login to your account.
While
both of these activities depend on the use of a "cookie,"
visitors to this site always have the option of disabling
cookies in their web browser. Most browsers are initially
set to accept cookies. You can reset your browser to refuse all
cookies or indicate when a cookie is being sent.

Also,
via our site you may be introduced to, or be able to access,

parties when providing information on a feature or page operated
by a third party.
Please
be aware that if you voluntarily disclose Personally Identifiable
Information on message boards or in chat areas, that information
can be viewed publicly and can be collected and used by third
parties without our knowledge and may result in unsolicited
messages from other individuals or third parties. Such activities
are beyond the control of Topsites and this policy.
