Privacy Policy

Last updated: December 17, 2023

chudo-minimalism operates https://chudo-minimalism.com and this page informs you of our policies regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of Personal Information we receive from users of the Site.

At https://chudo-minimalism.com, we highly value the privacy of your personal information. We will provide you with information on what types of personal information we collect and acquire when you use and visit https://chudo-minimalism.com and how we protect that information. We do not sell your personal information to third parties.

The collected personal information is used solely for the purpose of providing and improving the Site. By using the Site, you agree to the collection and use of information in accordance with this policy.

Log Files

As with most other websites, we collect and use data contained in log files. This information includes your IP address (Internet Protocol), your ISP (Internet Service Provider, such as AOL or Shaw Cable), the browser you used to visit our site (such as Internet Explorer or Firefox), the time you visited our site, and the pages you visited throughout our site. Additionally, we may employ third-party services like Google Analytics to collect, monitor, and analyze this data.

Cookies and Web Beacons

Cookies are small data files that contain an anonymous unique identifier. They are sent to your browser from a website and stored on your computer’s hard drive.

We use “cookies” like many other sites to collect information. You can instruct your browser to refuse all cookies or to indicate when a cookie is being sent. However, if you do not accept cookies, you may not be able to use some portions of our Site.

Furthermore, we utilize third-party advertisements to support our site at https://chudo-minimalism.com. Some of these advertisers may use technologies like cookies and web beacons when they advertise on our site. This will also send these advertisers (such as the Google AdSense program) information including your IP address, ISP, browser used to visit our site, and sometimes, whether you have Flash installed. This information is generally used for geotargeting purposes (e.g., displaying PNG real estate ads to someone in PNG) or showing specific ads based on sites visited.

DoubleClick DART cookies

We may also use DART cookies for ad serving through Google’s DoubleClick, which places a cookie on your computer when you browse the web and visit a site using DoubleClick advertising (including some Google AdSense advertisements). This cookie is utilized to serve ads tailored to you and your interests (“interest-based targeting”).

The ads served will be targeted based on your previous browsing history (e.g., if you’ve been viewing sites about visiting Tokyo, you might see Tokyo hotel advertisements when browsing an unrelated site, such as a hockey site). DART uses “non-personally identifiable information.” It does NOT track personal information about you, such as your name, email address, physical address, telephone number, social security numbers, bank account numbers, or credit card numbers.

You can opt-out of this ad serving on all sites using this advertising by visiting http://www.doubleclick.com/privacy/dart_adserving.aspx

You can choose to disable or selectively turn off our cookies or third-party cookies in your browser settings, or by managing preferences in programs such as Norton Internet Security. However, please note that this may affect how you interact with our site as well as other websites. This could include the inability to log in to services or programs, such as logging into forums or accounts.

Deleting cookies does not mean you are permanently opted out of any advertising program. Unless you have settings that disallow cookies, a new cookie will be added the next time you visit a site running the advertisements.

Even if you delete cookies, it does not signify a permanent opt-out from any advertising program.

Information Collection and Use

While using our Site, we may ask you to provide us with certain personally identifiable information that can be used to contact or identify you. Personally identifiable information may include, but is not limited to your name.

Communications

We may use your Personal Information to contact you with newsletters, marketing, or promotional materials and other information.

The security of your Personal Information is important to us. However, please note that no method of transmission over the Internet or electronic storage is 100% secure. While we strive to use commercially acceptable means to protect your Personal Information, we cannot guarantee its absolute security.

This Privacy Policy is effective as of December 17, 2023, and will remain in effect except with respect to any changes in its provisions in the future, which will be effective immediately after being posted on this page.

We reserve the right to update or change our Privacy Policy at any time, and you should check this Privacy Policy periodically. Your continued use of the Service after we post any modifications to the Privacy Policy on this page will constitute your acknowledgment of the modifications and your consent to abide and be bound by the modified Privacy Policy.
