1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy explains how osaka-castle.org ("we", "us", "our") collects, uses, and protects information when you visit our website at https://osaka-castle.org. By using our website, you agree to the practices described in this policy.
2. Information We Collect
Information you provide
We do not require registration or collect personal information directly. If you contact us via email at [email protected], we will receive your email address and any information you include in your message.
Information collected automatically
We use Umami, a privacy-focused analytics tool, to collect anonymous usage data. Umami does not use cookies, does not collect personal data, and does not track users across websites. The data collected includes:
- Pages visited and referral source
- Browser type and operating system
- Country of origin (based on anonymized IP)
- Screen size and device type
No IP addresses are stored. No personally identifiable information is collected through analytics.
3. Affiliate Links & Third-Party Services
Our website contains affiliate links to Viator (a TripAdvisor company). When you click an affiliate link and make a purchase on Viator, we earn a commission at no additional cost to you. Viator has its own privacy policy that governs your interaction with their platform.
We do not control and are not responsible for the privacy practices of Viator or any other third-party websites linked from our site. We encourage you to review their privacy policies before providing any personal information.
4. Cookies
Our website does not set first-party cookies. Umami analytics operates without cookies. However, when you click through to third-party sites such as Viator, those sites may set their own cookies according to their respective privacy policies.
5. Data Sharing
We do not sell, trade, or otherwise transfer your personal information to third parties. Anonymous analytics data is stored on our own servers and is not shared with any external parties.
6. Data Retention
Anonymous analytics data is retained for up to 24 months. If you contact us by email, we retain your correspondence for as long as necessary to address your inquiry.
7. Your Rights
Since we do not collect personal data through our website, there is generally no personal data to access, correct, or delete. If you have contacted us by email and wish to have your correspondence deleted, please email us at [email protected].
If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), you have additional rights under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), including the right to access, rectification, erasure, and data portability.
