Privacy policy

This draft covers the TopERLC directory, sign-in, community submissions, voting and AI matching. The legal operator and privacy contact have not yet been supplied. Independent communities linked from the directory are outside this notice's scope.

The final notice needs to explain which information is collected and used for each part of the platform:

• Sign-in: Google account information used for member access.
• Community submissions: Listing names, descriptions, categories, images and invite links, plus the submitting account.
• Voting: Account-linked votes and boosts, community references and activity dates.
• AI matching: The request visitors enter and community information used to generate matches.
• Technical information: Any browser storage, request logs or analytics used in operating the site.

These are areas for disclosure, not a verified inventory of all data collected.

Community listings and leaderboard totals appear in the public directory. Treat any text, image or invite link you submit for a listing as public-facing content. The final notice should explain the visibility of account and voting information separately; public totals do not require publishing voter identities.

The platform offers Google sign-in and an AI-assisted community finder. Before this notice is finalized, the owner must identify the services involved, what information they receive, why it is sent and any relevant processing locations or contractual terms.

Do not include passwords, private messages or sensitive personal details in a community finder request. AI suggestions may be inaccurate and are not a substitute for reviewing a community yourself.

Browser-storage purposes, any tracking tools, retention periods, backup handling and deletion procedures have not been confirmed by the owner. This draft does not promise a retention period, deletion timeframe or absence of tracking.

The owner needs to supply a working privacy contact and explain how requests about account information or listing content can be made and verified. No contact address or response deadline is specified in this draft.

• Confirm the legal operator and privacy contact.
• Approve an accurate data inventory, purposes and any applicable legal bases.
• Confirm service providers, sharing and processing locations.
• Set retention, deletion and privacy-request procedures.
• Address eligibility and any rules concerning children.
• Confirm browser storage, tracking disclosures and the effective date.
