Who we are

Top Coffee Bean is a coffee blog operated by [Your name / business name]. Our website address is https://topcoffeebean.com. We are based in [your country/state] and welcome visitors worldwide.

Information we collect

We collect two kinds of information: information you give us directly, and information collected automatically when you browse.

Information you provide directly

• Your name and email address, if you subscribe to our newsletter or contact us.
• Any details you include when you leave a comment or fill in a form.

Information collected automatically

• Your IP address, browser type, device type, and operating system.
• The pages you visit, the time and date of your visit, and how you reached our site.
• Cookie data, as described below.

Cookies and tracking technologies

Cookies are small text files stored on your device that help websites work and remember your preferences. We and our partners use cookies and similar technologies to run the site, understand how it is used, and serve relevant ads.

You can control or delete cookies through your browser settings. Please note that disabling some cookies may affect how the site works. Where required by law, we ask for your consent before setting non-essential cookies.

Analytics

We use analytics tools, including Google Analytics, to understand how visitors use our site. These tools collect information such as pages viewed, time on site, and general location, in a form that does not directly identify you. This helps us improve our content.

You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on.

Advertising partners

We display ads through third-party advertising partners, including [Mediavine]. These partners, and the vendors they work with, may use cookies and similar technologies to collect data about your visits to this and other sites in order to show ads relevant to you.

<!– When approved by Mediavine, replace the paragraph above and the text below with Mediavine’s current required programmatic advertising privacy language, which includes a live link to their list of advertising partners. Until then, keep this general disclosure in place. –>

Our advertising partners may collect information such as your IP address, browser and device information, and the pages you view, and may use this to serve personalized advertising. To learn more about how advertising vendors use data and how you can opt out of personalized advertising, you can visit the following resources:

• Network Advertising Initiative: https://optout.networkadvertising.org/
• Digital Advertising Alliance: https://optout.aboutads.info/
• Your Online Choices (EU): https://www.youronlinechoices.eu/

Affiliate links

Some links on our site are affiliate links, including links to Amazon. When you click an affiliate link, the retailer may set a cookie to track that the visit came from us, so we can be credited for any resulting purchase. This does not add any cost to you. For more detail, see our Affiliate Disclosure.

Depending on where you live, you may have specific rights over your personal information.
