Who We Are
Welcome to Best in Trending! Our website address is http://www.bestintrending.com, and we are dedicated to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy outlines how we collect, use, and protect your personal data when you visit our site.
Information We Collect
When visitors leave comments on our website, we collect the data displayed in the comments form, as well as the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string. This information helps us identify potential spam and ensures the security of the website. An anonymized string generated from your email address (also known as a hash) may be sent to the Gravatar service to check if you are using it. For more details, you can refer to the Gravatar Privacy Policy here. Once your comment is approved, your profile picture will be publicly visible in connection with your comment.
Media Uploads
If you upload images to our website, please make sure that the images do not contain any embedded location data (EXIF GPS). This helps prevent other visitors from extracting location information from images. Always be cautious when uploading images with embedded data.
Cookies Policy
We use cookies to improve your experience. If you leave a comment, you may opt-in to save your name, email, and website in cookies. This will save you time the next time you comment, as you won’t have to re-enter this information. Cookies for comments will remain for one year.
If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie is discarded when you close your browser. When you log in, we save your login credentials and screen display preferences in cookies. The login cookies expire after two days, and screen preferences cookies last for one year. If you select “Remember Me,” your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out, your login cookies will be removed.
If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie is saved to track your changes. This cookie does not contain any personal information and expires after one day.
Embedded Content from Other Websites
Our articles may include embedded content, such as videos, images, and other multimedia. Embedded content from other sites functions the same as if you visited those other websites. These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, or track your interaction with their content, especially if you have an account and are logged in to that site.
Data Sharing
If you request a password reset, your IP address may be included in the reset email for verification. We do not share your data with third parties unless required by law or if you have explicitly consented to sharing.
Data Retention
If you leave a comment on our site, we retain the comment and its metadata indefinitely. This allows us to recognize and approve follow-up comments automatically, without needing to hold them in a moderation queue. For users who register on our site, we store the personal information provided in their user profile. You can view, edit, or delete your personal data at any time, except for your username, which cannot be modified.
Your Rights Over Your Data
If you have an account on our site or have left comments, you have the right to request an exported file of the personal data we hold about you. You may also request that we erase your personal data, although we may retain certain information for legal or security purposes.
Data Transfers
Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service to ensure the safety of the website. Your personal data may also be transferred to third-party services involved in processing your data, such as advertisers.
Advertising and Third-Party Partners
We work with Mediavine to provide ads on our site. Mediavine collects data to serve personalized ads that align with your interests. This includes tracking your online activities and sharing this data with advertising partners to create targeted ads. Mediavine may collect the following information:

You can also disable cookies in your browser settings to prevent personalized ads from being shown to you. However, disabling cookies may limit your ability to use certain features on our site.
How Long We Retain Your Data
Mediavine retains your data as long as necessary for ad serving and other purposes. If you wish to withdraw your consent for data processing, you can contact Mediavine directly to stop the collection of your data.
Data Security Measures
We take your privacy seriously and have implemented security measures to protect your personal data. Despite our efforts, no internet-based system is entirely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.
