Privacy & Cookie Policy

Last Updated: October 8, 2026  |  Effective: September 5, 2026

Welcome to BiggBossVote.online ("we", "our", "us"). We are committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy & Cookie Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, how our advertising partners (including Google AdSense) use cookies, and how you can manage your preferences.

1. Information We Collect

BiggBossVote.online is a public fan polling service. We do not require user accounts, registration, or submission of financial data. The following information may be collected:

  • Anonymised Vote Data: When you cast a fan vote, we record your selection alongside a SHA-256 hashed IP address and a browser fingerprint hash. Raw IP addresses are never stored in plain text.
  • Server Log Files: Standard web server logs record hashed IP addresses, browser type, ISP, referring URLs, operating system, date/time stamps, and page click events.
  • Session & CSRF Cookies: Short-lived browser cookies prevent Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) and maintain voting session integrity.

2. Google AdSense & Third-Party Advertising Cookies

This website displays advertisements served by Google AdSense and its authorised advertising partners. These third-party services may use cookies and web beacons to serve personalised advertisements based on your prior visits to this site and/or other websites.

Required AdSense Disclosures:

  • Third-party vendors, including Google, use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to our website or to other websites on the Internet.
  • Google's use of advertising cookies (including the DoubleClick DART cookie) enables Google and its partners to serve ads to our users based on their visit to our site and/or other sites.
  • You may opt out of personalised advertising at any time by visiting Google Ad Settings.
  • Alternatively, you may opt out of third-party vendor cookies for personalised advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info/choices or the Network Advertising Initiative opt-out page.

3. Analytics Services

We use the following analytics tools to understand website traffic and improve user experience:

  • Google Analytics 4 (GA4): Collects anonymised data including pages visited, session duration, device category, and geographic region. GA4 does not collect personally identifiable information. Google Privacy Policy →
  • Microsoft Clarity: Used for session heatmaps and interaction analysis to improve site layout. Microsoft Privacy Policy →

4. Rate Limiting & Anti-Abuse

To preserve the integrity of fan poll results, our platform enforces server-side rate limits. Hashed identifiers used for abuse detection are stored in encrypted form and are automatically purged after each rate-limit window expires. These cannot be used to identify individual users.

5. Managing and Disabling Cookies

You can control and delete cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect some site functionality (e.g., voting session state). Find browser-specific instructions below:

  • Request information about what data we hold about you
  • Request deletion or erasure of any stored data
  • Opt out of personalised advertising cookies at any time
  • Lodge a complaint with your national data protection authority

7. Children's Privacy

Our website is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has submitted information through our platform, please contact us immediately for removal.
