Kotowaza.Jepang.org Privacy Policy

You can browse the homepage, search, topics, situations, policy pages, and entries without registering, signing in, paying, or creating a user profile.

Kotowaza.Jepang.org currently has no contact form, comments, account area, or learning-progress storage. If you email [email protected], your email address and message content are processed only to answer that message.

When a page loads, hosting, CDN, security infrastructure, and the browser may process normal technical data such as IP address, approximate network country, browser type, requested URL, access time, requested asset files, and error information.

This technical data is used to deliver pages, protect the site, prevent abuse, fix breakage, and understand site performance.

Kotowaza.Jepang.org search uses URL parameters, for example /en/search?q=neko. Search terms may appear in browser history, technical logs, and URLs you share.

Search results are read from static JSON data on the same domain. The site does not run live enrichment, does not call content-generation services when a public page loads, and does not scan raw research files while you search.

The current Kotowaza.Jepang.org code does not use localStorage or sessionStorage to save user progress or study preferences. Audio buttons on entry pages use built-in browser speech features when available and do not create server-side study history.

On the live public site, entry pages may load Google AdSense. Ad services may use cookies or similar identifiers under Google policy. Browsers, CDNs, or third-party services used to load fonts and assets may also use cache or similar technical identifiers under their own policies.

Kotowaza.Jepang.org uses Cloudflare for site delivery, security, and caching. It also loads Google Fonts for typography.

The footer and some pages link to other Jepang.org sites, social profiles, and external references. When you open those links, the destination service’s privacy policy applies.

We do not provide user accounts, profile dashboards, saved study history, or personal file uploads. Because of that, there is no account area for viewing, changing, exporting, or deleting a personal profile.

Kotowaza.Jepang.org also does not publish raw research files as public live-site data. Visible entries come from reviewed built data.

You can manage cookies in your browser, use private browsing, block third-party scripts, or delete site data from your device. Some settings may affect font loading or page presentation.

For privacy questions, email [email protected]. For entry-content reports, see Corrections. For general contact, see Contact.

This policy may be updated when site features, third-party services, or data-processing practices change. Changes apply after they are published on this page with a new update date.
