Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 7, 2026

This page explains what information Tagotic may collect, how it may be used, and how it may be shared.

Data Collection Site Operation User Controls

Information Tagotic May Collect

  • Account information you provide, such as username, email address, and login-related information
  • Content you submit, such as reviews, ratings, tags, votes, profile text, and other contributions
  • Technical and usage information, such as browser type, device information, IP address or derived IP-based identifiers, log data, and basic site interaction data
  • Security and abuse-prevention information used to detect fraud, spam, rate abuse, or other misuse

How Tagotic May Use Information

  • To provide, maintain, and improve the site and its features
  • To authenticate users and secure accounts
  • To display user-submitted content and support site analytics, feature pages, and community features
  • To generate aggregated charts, summaries, and statistics from user submissions, including anonymous and logged-in activity where applicable
  • To detect, prevent, investigate, and respond to abuse, fraud, or violations of site rules
  • To comply with legal obligations and respond to lawful requests

Privacy Basics: IP Addresses, Derived Identifiers, and Abuse Prevention

Tagotic is designed so users can choose how personally identifying their account is. You may use a username and email address of your choice, including a privacy-focused email provider if you prefer.

Tagotic may process IP addresses and derived technical identifiers to support security, rate limits, duplicate-submission controls, anti-spam protections, fraud prevention, moderation, and enforcement of site rules.

Where practical, Tagotic uses privacy-protective derived identifiers rather than storing raw IP addresses in application-level abuse-prevention records. These identifiers help recognize repeated activity from the same network address, but they are not displayed publicly and are not intended for advertising or cross-site tracking.

For logged-in users, Tagotic does not store IP-derived identifiers on application-level review, summary, or comment records. Temporary account-registration abuse-prevention identifiers are generally redacted after 30 days, meaning the identifier is removed or replaced with a non-identifying placeholder. Email addresses remain linked to accounts; users may choose what email address they provide.

For anonymous reviews, summaries, and comments, Tagotic may temporarily store IP-derived identifiers for duplicate-submission controls, anti-spam protections, and moderation. These application-level identifiers are generally redacted after 30 days, meaning the identifier is removed or replaced with a non-identifying placeholder.

Anonymous vote identifiers may be retained longer to maintain a consistent voting record and reduce vote manipulation.

Some infrastructure providers, security logs, payment processors, or analytics services may process technical information as part of operating, protecting, and maintaining the service.

Privacy-Friendly Analytics

Tagotic uses Plausible Analytics to understand aggregate website usage, such as page views, referrers, and general traffic trends. Plausible is intended to provide privacy-friendly, cookie-free analytics and does not track visitors across unrelated websites.

Tagotic uses this information to improve the site, understand which pages are useful, and monitor general traffic patterns.

Public and Visible Information

Reviews, ratings, tags, votes, profile text, and similar user contributions may be visible to other users or to the public depending on how the site is designed and operated.

Do not submit information you do not want displayed, retained, or associated with your account.

Aggregated Analytics

Tagotic may display aggregated charts, counts, summaries, and feature statistics derived from user-submitted reviews, ratings, tags, votes, and other activity. These analytics may reflect both logged-in and anonymous submissions where applicable.

These statistics are generated from aggregated user activity and opinions and are provided for informational and expressive purposes. They are not independently verified factual measurements and may not fully or reliably characterize a movie, feature, or audience view.

Cookies, Sessions, and Local Storage

Tagotic may use cookies, session tokens, browser storage, and similar technologies to keep users signed in, remember preferences, maintain site state, improve performance, and support security-related functions.

How Information May Be Shared

Tagotic does not sell personal information in the ordinary sense of running the service, but may share information:

  • With service providers or infrastructure providers that help operate the site
  • When content is intentionally made public through the platform
  • When disclosure is reasonably necessary to enforce policies, protect rights or safety, investigate abuse, or comply with law
  • As part of a business transfer, reorganization, or asset transaction involving the service

Data Retention

Application-level IP-derived identifiers used for account-registration abuse prevention, anonymous reviews, anonymous summaries, and anonymous comments are generally redacted after 30 days, meaning the identifier is removed or replaced with a non-identifying placeholder, except where retention is reasonably necessary for security, abuse prevention, legal compliance, or service integrity.

Backup copies may retain data for a limited additional period according to Tagotic's backup retention practices.

Security

Tagotic takes reasonable steps to protect information, but no method of transmission, storage, or online service can be guaranteed completely secure.

Children

Tagotic is not intended for children under 13, and children under 13 should not use the site or provide personal information through it.

Your Choices

Tagotic does not currently guarantee routine user-initiated deletion of accounts, submitted content, or associated activity history. Account closure, content removal, and related retention decisions may be handled at Tagotic’s discretion in order to preserve site integrity, moderation history, records, analytics, and service continuity.

Where applicable law gives users specific privacy or data rights, Tagotic may respond to qualifying requests in accordance with those legal obligations and any applicable exceptions.

General privacy questions may be sent to support@tagotic.com.

Changes to This Policy

Tagotic may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Continued use of the site after changes become effective means you accept the updated policy.
