Privacy Policy

1. Information we collect

When you register or use High5Hits, we may process account details such as your username and email address; information you choose to publish in classifieds, such as titles, descriptions, locations, photos, website URLs, and contact details; and technical information such as IP address, browser information, and usage or security logs.

2. How information is used

We use information to operate member accounts, display advertisements, manage credits and posting activity, prevent fraud and spam, investigate reports, respond to support requests, and maintain site security and performance.

3. Public listing information

Details you place in an advertisement may be visible to the public, including your chosen contact email and any photos or website links. Avoid including private information that you do not want publicly accessible.

4. Cookies and sessions

The website may use cookies or similar technologies to maintain login sessions, remember settings, support site features, and protect against abuse. Browser settings may allow you to manage cookies, although disabling essential cookies can affect functionality.

5. Payments and third-party services

If you purchase credits or use third-party services, payment or other information may be handled by the relevant provider under its own privacy practices. We may receive transaction details needed to credit your account and maintain records. External sites linked from classified ads are independently operated.

6. Security and retention

We use reasonable safeguards to protect information, but no online service can guarantee absolute security. Information may be retained as needed for account operation, moderation, fraud prevention, dispute handling, legal obligations, and legitimate business records.

7. Sharing and legal requests

We may share information with service providers assisting website operations, when required by law, to investigate abuse, or to protect users and the service. Public ad information is shared by design when you publish a listing. We do not authorize other members to misuse information from listings.

8. Your choices

You may choose what personal details to include in public advertisements and can contact support to ask about account information, corrections, or removal requests. Certain records may need to be retained for security, payment, or legal reasons.

9. Children and updates

The classifieds service is not intended for children to use independently. We may revise this policy and post changes here. For privacy questions, contact us through Contact / Support.
