Cookies Policy – Topranked

1. What are cookies?

Cookies are small text files placed on your computer, phone, or tablet when you visit a website. They help the site remember certain information about you or your device, such as which pages you visited, your preferred language, or whether you have already seen a banner or message. Some cookies are needed for the website to work. Others help us improve the site or show more relevant content.

2. Types of cookies we use

2.1 Strictly necessary cookies

These cookies are essential for the basic operation and security of topranked.space. They may keep your session active while you browse, remember basic settings like cookie choices, and protect the site from fraud and abuse. You cannot disable these cookies via our banner because the website would not function properly without them.

2.2 Performance and analytics cookies

These cookies help us understand how people use Topranked so we can improve our pages, structure, and content. They collect information about which pages are visited, whether certain features are used, and may support A/B tests. Where required by law, we will only set these cookies if you accept them via our cookie banner.

2.3 Functional cookies

Functional cookies make your visit more comfortable and personalised. They may remember your language or region, keep some of your preferences for future visits, or adapt some content to your general location.

2.4 Marketing and social media cookies

Topranked is mainly an information site, but we may sometimes use marketing or social media cookies, for example if we show content from external platforms, measure referral links, or allow you to share pages on social networks. These cookies can be used to build a profile of your interests and are usually placed by third-party partners with your consent.

3. Third-party cookies

Some cookies used on topranked.space come from third parties, not from Topranked itself. Examples may include analytics or audience measurement services, advertising networks, social media platforms, and embedded content providers. These third parties may collect data about your browsing across different sites and combine it with other information they already hold. We recommend reading their privacy and cookie policies to understand how they use your data.

4. How long cookies are kept

Cookies are stored for different periods, depending on their purpose. Session cookies are removed when you close your browser. Preference cookies may be kept for up to 12 months, analytics cookies may be stored for up to 24 months, and marketing or advertising cookies are usually kept for up to 13 months, in line with local rules on targeted advertising. Exact lifetimes may vary depending on the cookie and the provider.

5. How you can manage cookies

5.1 Through our cookie banner

When you first visit topranked.space, you will see a cookie banner where you can accept all cookies, refuse non-essential cookies, or choose a custom setting and select which categories you agree to. You can change your preferences later by revisiting the cookie settings (for example, via a footer link if available).

5.2 Through your browser settings

You can also manage, limit or delete cookies via your browser. The steps depend on which browser you use (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, etc.). From there, you can block all cookies or only third-party cookies, delete existing cookies, or set rules for specific websites. If you block all cookies, some parts of Topranked may not function properly.

6. What happens if you refuse cookies?

If you choose to block or refuse certain cookies, some features of topranked.space may not work as expected, settings and preferences may not be saved between visits, performance and loading speed may be affected, and some content or integrated tools may not display correctly. Essential cookies will still be used where necessary for the site to function.

7. Cookies and personal data

Some cookies may be linked to personal data or may allow us to associate technical information with a specific user (for example, when you contact us and we respond using technical logs). When cookies involve personal data, we act in compliance with the GDPR and French data protection laws, rely on a valid legal basis (such as your consent or our legitimate interest), clearly inform you about the purposes of these cookies, and allow you to withdraw your consent at any time where consent is required.

8. Use of cookies and minors

Topranked is meant for adults aged 18 and over, as it deals with sports betting topics. We do not knowingly use cookies to collect information about minors. If we discover that data was collected from someone under 18, we will take steps to delete it as soon as reasonably possible.

9. Changes to this Cookie Policy

We may update this Cookie Policy from time to time, for example if we add new services, change the tools or partners we use, or if the law or official guidance on cookies changes. When we make significant updates, we will change the “Last updated” date at the top of this page and may show a notification or banner to inform you.
