This Privacy Policy explains how REQU Korea (“we,” “us,” or “our”) collects, uses, and protects information when you visit requkorea.com.
Who we are
REQU Korea is an English-language family travel guide to Korea. Our website address is https://requkorea.com.
Information we collect
We may collect information you voluntarily provide, such as your name, email address, website, and message when you leave a comment or contact us. We may also collect technical information automatically, including your IP address, browser and device type, operating system, referring page, pages viewed, approximate location, and interaction data. This information may be collected through server logs, cookies, analytics tools, and security services.
Comments
When visitors leave comments, we collect the information shown in the comment form, along with the visitor’s IP address and browser user-agent string to help detect spam. An anonymized hash of an email address may be provided to Gravatar. After a comment is approved, a profile image may be publicly visible with the comment. You can read the Automattic privacy policy.
Cookies
REQU Korea and its service providers may use cookies or similar technologies. Essential cookies support WordPress functions, security, login sessions, and comment preferences. Analytics and advertising cookies may help us understand site use, measure performance, prevent fraud, and display or measure advertisements. You can restrict or delete cookies through your browser settings, although some site features may not work as intended.
Google Analytics and Site Kit
We use Google Site Kit and may use Google Analytics to understand how visitors use the site. Google Analytics may collect information such as device and browser details, approximate location, pages visited, interactions, and identifiers stored in cookies. Google processes this information according to its own policies. Learn how Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services. You can also use the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on.
Advertising and Google AdSense
REQU Korea may use Google AdSense or other advertising services. Google and other advertising partners may place or read cookies, or use web beacons, IP addresses, and other identifiers, to deliver, limit, personalize, and measure ads, depending on your location, consent choices, and applicable law. You can manage Google ad personalization in My Ad Center.
Embedded content and external links
Pages on this site may contain embedded content or links to official attractions, museums, booking providers, maps, videos, social platforms, and other third-party websites. Those services may collect data, use cookies, and monitor your interaction under their own privacy policies. REQU Korea is not responsible for the privacy practices of external websites.
How we use and share information
We use information to operate and improve the website, understand readership, respond to messages, moderate comments, protect the site, comply with legal obligations, and measure content or advertising performance. We may share information with hosting, analytics, advertising, spam-prevention, security, and other service providers when needed to operate the site. We may also disclose information when required by law or to protect our rights, users, or the public.
Data retention
We retain information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purposes described here, including legal, security, and administrative needs. Approved comments and their metadata may be retained indefinitely so follow-up comments can be recognized. Analytics and service providers may apply their own retention periods.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to certain processing of your personal information. You may also manage cookies in your browser, adjust Google advertising preferences, or opt out of Google Analytics as described above. To make a privacy request, please use our Contact page. We may need to verify your identity before completing a request, and some information may be retained when required by law.
Children’s privacy
REQU Korea provides travel information for parents and families. The site is not intended to collect personal information directly from children under 13. If you believe a child has submitted personal information, please contact us so we can review and remove it where appropriate.
International data transfers and security
Service providers may process information in countries other than your own. We use reasonable administrative and technical measures to protect information, but no online service can guarantee absolute security.
Changes to this policy
We may update this Privacy Policy as the site, services, or legal requirements change. The latest version will be posted on this page with a revised “Last updated” date.
