Privacy Policy

Information we receive

BestSexStores.com is a directory of online shops and guides. You can browse without a visitor account. Our hosting systems may record technical information such as your IP address, browser, request time, and the pages or search URLs requested.

When you suggest a shop, we store the shop information and review status. Editors may publish the listing details after review. When you contact us, we store your message, the topic you select, any page link you include, and the reply email you provide. Contact messages go to the private editor inbox.

How we use and share information

We use this information to operate and protect the site, review listings, respond to requests, and correct errors. Editors and providers who support the site may need access to relevant records. We may share information when required by law or to address abuse or security incidents.

Our directory links to other websites. If you follow a link, the destination handles your activity under its own privacy policy. The directory does not take payments or collect payment card numbers.

Tracking and retention

For review accounts we store an email-derived identifier, a salted password hash, temporary verification records, and session records. We use Mailgun to send confirmation codes to the email address you enter. Your display name, rating, review text, and posting date are public. Avoid including personal information in a review.

The directory uses cookies for review account confirmation and sign-in. See our Cookie Notice for details.

We keep submissions, messages, and technical records as needed to run the directory, address requests or abuse, and meet legal obligations. Those periods can vary by record and purpose.

Your choices

You can use our contact form to ask about, correct, or request deletion of information you submitted. Select Privacy and give enough detail to locate your request. We may need to confirm your identity before acting.

The directory is intended for adults 18 and older. Please do not include financial information, government identification, or sensitive personal details in a form.
