Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

kicked.top (the “Blog,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) is committed to protecting the privacy of visitors who read and interact with our content. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, disclose, and safeguard your information when you visit our website kicked.top (the “Site”). Please read this policy carefully. By using the Site, you agree to the practices described herein.

If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at [email protected] or write to: 8888 Maple Dr, Denver, CO 80202.

1. Information We Collect

We collect information in two ways: (a) information you voluntarily provide to us, and (b) information automatically collected when you browse the Site.

  • Personal Information You Provide: When you use our contact form or leave a comment on an article, we may collect your name, email address, and any other details you choose to share. This information is used solely to respond to your inquiry or to display your comment (with your name) on the relevant blog post.
  • Automatically Collected Information: When you visit kicked.top, our servers and analytics tools may automatically log certain data, including your IP address, browser type, operating system, referring URLs, device type, and pages viewed. This information helps us understand how readers use our content and improve the Site.

2. How We Use Your Information

We use the information we collect for the following purposes:

  • To respond to your comments, questions, or messages submitted via our contact form.
  • To display your comments publicly on the Blog (your email address is never displayed).
  • To analyze site traffic and reader engagement using aggregated, anonymized data.
  • To improve the content, layout, and user experience of kicked.top.
  • To detect and prevent fraudulent or abusive activity on the Site.

We do not sell, rent, or trade your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes.

3. Comments

When visitors leave comments on the Blog, we collect the data shown in the comments form (e.g., name and comment text), as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection. An anonymized string created from your email address (a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. After approval of your comment, your profile picture (if any) is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

We reserve the right to moderate, edit, or delete comments that violate our commenting guidelines, including spam, offensive language, or off-topic remarks.

4. Cookies and Tracking Technologies

kicked.top uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to enhance your browsing experience and gather analytics. Cookies are small text files stored on your device by your web browser.

  • Essential Cookies: These are necessary for the basic functionality of the Site, such as remembering your comment preferences or session data.
  • Analytics Cookies: We use third-party analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to collect anonymous information about how visitors use our Site. These cookies track pages visited, time spent on the Site, and referral sources. The data is aggregated and does not personally identify you.
  • Comment Cookie: If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to saving your name, email address, and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

You can control cookie preferences through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect certain features of the Site, but you will still be able to read all blog content.

5. Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on kicked.top may include embedded content (e.g., videos, images, articles, social media posts). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website. We do not control these third-party tracking practices and encourage you to review their privacy policies.

6. Analytics

We use basic analytics tools (such as Google Analytics or similar services) to understand how our audience engages with our content. These tools collect information such as your IP address (anonymized where possible), browser type, pages visited, and the date/time of your visit. This data is used in aggregate form to improve our Blog and does not identify individual users. We do not combine analytics data with any personally identifiable information.

7. Data Retention

We retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy. Specifically:

  • Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so we can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.
  • Contact form submissions are retained for a reasonable period to allow us to respond and for customer service purposes, after which they are deleted or anonymized.
  • Analytics data is retained for a period of up to 26 months, after which it is automatically deleted or aggregated.

8. Your Rights Over Your Data

If you have left comments on kicked.top or submitted a contact form, you can request to receive an exported file of the personal data we hold about you, including any data you have provided to us. You can also request that we erase any personal data we hold about you. This does not include any data we are obliged to keep for administrative, legal, or security purposes. To exercise these rights, please contact us at [email protected].

9. How We Protect Your Data

We implement reasonable technical and organizational security measures to protect your personal information from unauthorized access, alteration, disclosure, or destruction. These measures include secure servers, encryption of data in transit (SSL/TLS), and regular security reviews. However, no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

10. Children’s Privacy

kicked.top is a general interest blog about social impact and is not directed to children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us immediately, and we will take steps to delete that information.

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices, legal requirements, or operational needs. When we make changes, we will revise the “Last updated” date at the top of this page. We encourage you to review this Privacy Policy periodically to stay informed about how we are protecting your information.
