Privacy

Who we are

Hip-Hop & R&B (hiphopandrnb.com) is a free website run from the United Kingdom. For anything about your privacy, write to esbetrix@outlook.com.

The short version

There are no accounts, no sign-up, no advertising trackers and no analytics companies. We keep almost nothing.

What we keep

• Counts, not records. How many pages were viewed each day, how many different visitors, how many votes, . Numbers only.
• Daily visitor code. To count a visitor once a day and to allow one vote a day, we combine your IP address and browser type with a secret and a date and keep only the result, a one-way code. It cannot be turned back into your IP address, changes every day, and is deleted after two days. Your IP address itself is not stored.
• Votes. Which artist was voted for, on which day, with that day's code. Kept for up to 400 days for the leaderboard, then deleted.

YouTube

Music videos come from YouTube. Nothing loads from YouTube until you press play; then the video plays from youtube-nocookie.com and YouTube's own privacy policy applies to that video. Thumbnails are loaded from YouTube's image server.

Cookies

None for visitors.

Your rights

Because we do not keep information that identifies you, there is normally nothing to access or delete. Write to esbetrix@outlook.com with any question; we answer within one month. You can also complain to the UK Information Commissioner's Office.
