Privacy Policy

Last updated: June 2026

Data Controller

TopListLab operates the website toplistlab.com. For privacy enquiries, contact privacy@toplistlab.com or write to 1042 West Hastings Street, Suite 320, Vancouver, BC V6E 2E7, Canada.

What We Collect

TopListLab is designed with privacy in mind. We do not require user accounts or registration. The following data may be stored locally in your browser via localStorage and essential session logs:

  • Age verification status โ€” confirms you are 18+ (stored after first visit)
  • Cookie consent preference โ€” records your acceptance of session logs
  • Virtual lab credit balance โ€” shared across all games on the platform
  • Game session data โ€” bet history, daily bonus progress, and in-game state
  • Newsletter email โ€” only if you voluntarily subscribe via our form (processed locally in demo; production would use secure server storage)

When you submit our contact form, we receive the name, email address, subject and message you provide. This data is used solely to respond to your enquiry and is not shared with third parties for marketing purposes.

What We Do Not Collect

We do not use third-party advertising trackers, social media pixels or cross-site profiling cookies. We do not sell, rent or trade personal data. We do not require payment information because our platform is entirely free with no real-money transactions. We do not collect precise geolocation, biometric data or government identification numbers.

How Local Storage Works

All gameplay data โ€” including your credit balance, bet history and daily bonus streak โ€” is written to your device's localStorage. This means the data never leaves your browser unless you explicitly submit a contact form. Clearing your browser data will reset all locally stored preferences and game progress. We cannot recover this data on your behalf because we do not maintain server-side copies.

Legal Basis for Processing

Under Canada's Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), we rely on:

  • Consent โ€” for cookie/session log storage and age verification
  • Legitimate interest โ€” to respond to contact form enquiries and maintain platform security
  • Contractual necessity โ€” to provide the free entertainment service you request by visiting our site

Data Retention

Browser-stored data persists until you clear your browser's local storage or cookies. Contact form submissions are retained only as long as necessary to resolve your enquiry, typically no longer than 24 months. Newsletter subscriptions (if implemented server-side) may be retained until you unsubscribe.

International Transfers

TopListLab is operated from Canada. If you access our site from outside Canada, your locally stored data remains on your device. Any contact form data submitted is processed on Canadian servers. By using our site, you acknowledge this processing arrangement.

Your Rights Under PIPEDA

You have the right to:

  • Access personal data we hold about you (primarily contact form submissions)
  • Correct inaccurate information by contacting us
  • Delete locally stored data by clearing browser storage; request deletion of contact records via email
  • Withdraw consent for cookies by clearing storage and declining on next visit
  • File a complaint with the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada if you believe your rights have been violated

To exercise any of these rights, email privacy@toplistlab.com with your request. We will respond within 30 days.

Children's Privacy

TopListLab is not intended for anyone under 18 years of age. We do not knowingly collect data from minors. If you believe a minor has accessed our platform, please contact us immediately.

Security Measures

We use HTTPS/TLS encryption across the entire site. Our codebase is regularly reviewed for security best practices. However, no method of electronic storage or transmission is 100% secure. We encourage you to keep your browser updated and use device-level security features.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The "Last updated" date at the top will reflect any material changes. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
