Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 2, 2026

This Privacy Policy explains how Golden’s List (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit goldenslist.com (the “Site”). By using the Site, you agree to the practices described below.

Information we collect

Information you give us. If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to include in your message. We use it only to respond to you.

Information collected automatically. Like most websites, our servers and analytics tools automatically record standard log data when you visit — such as your browser type, device, referring pages, pages viewed, and a truncated or anonymized IP address. This helps us understand how the Site is used and keep it working.

Cookies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device. We and our partners use them to:

  • Run the Site — essential cookies that make basic functions work.
  • Measure traffic — analytics cookies that tell us, in aggregate, which guides are read.
  • Support advertising — cookies used by advertising partners to show relevant ads and measure performance.

You can control or delete cookies in your browser settings. Blocking some cookies may affect how the Site works.

Advertising and affiliate partners

Google AdSense. We may use Google AdSense to display ads. Google, as a third-party vendor, uses cookies (including the DoubleClick cookie) to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings, and you can opt out of many third-party vendors’ use of cookies at aboutads.info/choices.

Amazon. As an Amazon Associate, we use affiliate links. Amazon may set cookies to track that a visit or purchase originated from our Site so that any commission can be attributed. See the Amazon Privacy Notice for details. Read our Affiliate Disclosure for more.

Analytics

We may use analytics services (such as Google Analytics) to understand aggregate visitor behavior. These services process usage data on our behalf and may set their own cookies. We do not use analytics data to personally identify individual visitors.

How we use information

  • To operate, maintain, and improve the Site and our guides;
  • To respond to your emails and requests;
  • To understand aggregate traffic and content performance;
  • To display advertising that keeps the Site free;
  • To detect, prevent, and address technical issues or abuse.

We do not sell your personal information.

Third-party links

Our guides link to third-party sites such as Amazon. We are not responsible for the privacy practices or content of those sites. We encourage you to read the privacy policy of any site you visit.

Data retention

We keep email correspondence only as long as needed to address your request and for reasonable record-keeping. Aggregate analytics data is retained according to our analytics providers’ standard periods.

Your rights

Depending on where you live (for example, under the EU/UK GDPR or the California CCPA/CPRA), you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict the processing of your personal information, and to opt out of the “sale” or “sharing” of it. Because we hold very little personal data — and do not sell it — these requests are usually simple. To exercise any right, email us at contact@goldenslist.com.

Children’s privacy

Golden’s List is not directed to children under 13 (or the equivalent minimum age in your jurisdiction), and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above. Material changes will be reflected on this page.
