Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 7, 2025

At Seapedia ("we", "us", or "our"), we respect your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains what we collect, how we use it, when we share it, and the choices you have. It applies to seapedia.biz.id and any pages under this domain (the "Site").

Who We Are and How to Contact Us

Seapedia is an independent travel publication focused on cruises, destinations, travel tips, and vacations. If you have questions about this policy or your data, contact us via our contact page. We respond as soon as reasonably possible.

Information We Collect

We collect information in three ways: information you provide directly, information collected automatically, and information from service partners who help us operate the Site.

• Information You Provide: When you submit a form or send a message, you may provide your name, email address, and the content of your communication.
• Information Collected Automatically: When you visit the Site, our servers and analytics tools may log IP address, device and browser type, general location (based on IP), referring/exit pages, pages viewed, time spent, and similar diagnostic data. We may use cookies and similar technologies to enable core features, analytics, performance, and advertising.
• Information From Partners: We may receive aggregated or pseudonymous data from service providers (e.g., analytics, ad technology) to measure performance, prevent fraud, or improve the Site.

How We Use Information

• Operate, maintain, and improve the Site's content, features, and performance.
• Understand audience interests and measure what content is helpful.
• Communicate with you and respond to inquiries.
• Support safety, fraud detection, debugging, and legal compliance.
• Personalize or measure advertising where permitted by your settings and applicable law.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies, local storage, and similar technologies to provide core functionality (e.g., security, load balancing), remember preferences, perform analytics, and, where applicable, support advertising. You can manage cookies via your browser settings and, where offered, through our on-site cookie banner or preferences page. Disabling certain cookies may affect Site functionality.

Advertising and Google Services

We may display advertising delivered by third-party partners such as Google AdSense/Google Ads. These partners may use cookies or device identifiers to provide, personalize, and measure ads. In regions where consent is required, we will seek your permission before using data for personalized ads. You can adjust ad personalization in your browser and Google account settings. Seapedia does not sell your personal information for money.

Analytics

We may use analytics services to understand how the Site is used and to improve content and performance. Analytics tools typically collect pseudonymous, aggregate data such as pages visited, time on page, device type, and general location. You can limit analytics by adjusting your browser settings, using built-in privacy features, or opting out via our cookie banner (where available).

When We Share Information

We do not sell personal information. We share information only with:

• Service Providers: Companies that host our Site, provide analytics, ad delivery, security, or customer support—bound by confidentiality and data-protection obligations.
• Legal and Safety: If required by law, court order, or to protect the rights, safety, and security of users, the public, or Seapedia.
• Business Changes: If we undergo a reorganization, merger, or transfer, relevant information may be shared as part of that process under appropriate safeguards.

Data Retention

We keep information only as long as necessary for the purposes described in this policy, for the period required by applicable law, or as needed to resolve disputes and enforce agreements. Retention periods vary based on data type and legal obligations.

Security

We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect information. No method of transmission or storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security. We recommend using strong passwords and keeping devices and software up to date.

Your Privacy Choices

• Cookie Controls: Manage cookies in your browser and, where available, in our cookie banner/preferences.
• Communications: If you no longer wish to be contacted after submitting a form, let us know via our contact page.
• Ad Preferences: Adjust ad personalization in your browser and Google account settings.

Your Rights

Your rights depend on your location. Subject to applicable law, you may have the right to access, correct, delete, or restrict certain processing of your personal data; object to processing; and request data portability. Where we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time.

• EEA/UK Residents (GDPR): You can request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, portability, or object to processing based on legitimate interests. You may also lodge a complaint with your supervisory authority.
• California Residents (CCPA/CPRA): You may have the right to know, delete, correct, and opt out of "sharing" for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not sell personal information for money. We do not use or disclose sensitive personal information for any purpose that requires a right to limit under the CPRA. To make a request, contact us at /contact. We will verify and respond within the time required by law.

Children's Privacy

Our content is intended for a general audience. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information on our Site, contact us at /contact and we will take appropriate steps to remove the information.

International Data Transfers

We are based in Indonesia and may process information in countries where our service providers operate. These locations may have different data-protection laws. When we transfer personal data, we use appropriate safeguards permitted by applicable law.

Third-Party Links

Our Site may reference third-party content or services. Those websites have their own privacy policies and practices. We are not responsible for their content or privacy practices.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. We will post any changes on this page and update the "Last updated" date above. If changes materially affect your rights or how we use your information, we will provide additional notice as required by law.
