Privacy Policy
Last updated: January 15, 2025
Trusted Pick Magazine ("we", "us", or "our") operates this website. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect when you visit, how we use it, and the choices you have. We keep this simple on purpose: we are a small publication and we collect as little as possible.
Information We Collect
We collect information in two ways:
- Information you provide. If you contact us by email, we receive your email address and the contents of your message. We do not require registration or accounts to read our content.
- Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our hosting provider automatically logs basic technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device type, referring page, and the pages you visit. We use this data in aggregate to understand readership and keep the site running reliably.
Cookies and Similar Technologies
This site may use cookies or similar technologies (such as URL parameters and browser storage) to measure how visitors arrive at and move through our pages. You can set your browser to refuse cookies or to alert you when cookies are being sent; the site will continue to work.
How We Use Information
- To operate, maintain, and improve the website and its content
- To understand which articles and topics readers find useful
- To respond to messages you send us
- To protect against abuse, fraud, and technical issues
Sharing of Information
We do not sell your personal information. We may share limited information with service providers who help us operate the site (such as hosting and analytics providers), and we may disclose information if required to do so by law or to protect our rights.
Third-Party Links
Our articles and pages may contain links to third-party websites. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to review the privacy policy of any site you visit.
Data Retention
Server logs and aggregate analytics are retained only as long as needed for the purposes described above. Email correspondence is kept only as long as necessary to handle your inquiry.
Children's Privacy
This site is intended for a general adult audience and is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.
Your Choices and Rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, or delete personal information we hold about you. Because we collect so little, in most cases the only personal data we hold is email correspondence. To exercise any right, email us at the address below and we will respond within 30 days.
Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Continued use of the site after changes constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
