Rankings, profile information, comments, and other content that you choose to publish may be visible to other users or the public. Public content may be indexed by search engines or shared by other users outside the service.
Please avoid posting personal information or content that you do not want to make public.
7. Data retention
We may retain information for as long as necessary to provide the service, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, prevent abuse, maintain security, or enforce platform rules. Retention periods may vary depending on the type of data and the reason it was collected.
Some information may remain in backups, logs, or security records for a limited period even after account deletion or content removal, where reasonably necessary for legal, security, or operational purposes.
8. Account deletion and user rights
Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, update, correct, or request deletion of certain personal information. You may also contact support regarding questions, requests, or concerns about your data.
If you request account deletion, we will take reasonable steps to delete or anonymize personal information associated with your account, unless retention is necessary for legal compliance, security, fraud prevention, backup, dispute resolution, or enforcement of our Terms.
Content that you have made public, such as rankings or comments, may be removed or anonymized depending on the nature of the request and the technical operation of the service.
9. Security
We take reasonable technical and organizational steps to protect account and platform data from unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. These measures may include access controls, authentication mechanisms, logging, monitoring, and other security practices.
However, no internet-based service can guarantee absolute security. Users are encouraged to use strong passwords, keep login credentials confidential, and notify us if they suspect unauthorized access to their account.

topyourthree is not intended for children under the age required by applicable law. If we become aware that we have collected personal information from a child without appropriate consent, we will take reasonable steps to delete such information.
