Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 3, 2025

This Privacy Policy explains how Daopedia collects, uses, discloses, and protects information when you visit or interact with our website. We aim for clarity, minimal data collection, and controls that respect your choices wherever you are.

Scope and Controller

This notice applies to the Daopedia website and any pages we operate. References to "we", "us", or "our" mean Daopedia as the entity responsible for handling personal information on this website.

We follow applicable data protection laws, including Indonesia's regulations and, where relevant, frameworks in other jurisdictions. If local rules grant additional rights, we honor them as described in this notice.

Key Terms We Use

We keep language consistent throughout this notice. The following terms help you understand what we collect and why it matters for your privacy and safety.

"Personal Data" means information that identifies or can reasonably identify you. "Usage Data" means technical information gathered automatically when you browse our pages.

• Account: a profile used to access certain features (only if such features are offered).
• Device: a computer, phone, tablet, or similar tool you use to access the site.
• Service: our website content and features.
• Service Provider: a trusted third party that processes data for us (for example, hosting, security, analytics, or advertising support).

Information We Collect

We collect the minimum information needed to run and improve this website. You may provide Personal Data when you contact us or submit forms (such as a contact email address or message content). We use this information to respond and to maintain reliable service.

We also collect Usage Data automatically to keep the site secure and functional. Usage Data can include your IP address, general location inferred from the IP, browser and device details, pages visited, timestamps, and diagnostic signals that help us understand performance and reliability.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies to remember preferences, enable core features, and understand how the site is used. In regions where consent is required, a banner or settings panel lets you manage categories such as analytics or advertising.

You can also manage cookies in your browser settings. If you block certain cookies, some features may not work as intended, but essential functions will remain available.

How We Use Information

We use information to operate our website, respond to messages, measure content performance, and improve quality. We do not sell your Personal Data. Where we rely on partners, we bind them to protect your information and to use it only as instructed by us.

Typical uses include site analytics, security and abuse prevention, communicating with you about your inquiries, and measuring the effectiveness of content or ads so we can make the website more useful.

Legal Bases (Where Applicable)

When a law requires a legal basis for handling Personal Data (for example in the EU/UK), we rely on one or more of the following: your consent; our legitimate interests in operating a safe, useful site; performance of a contract with you; or compliance with legal obligations.

If we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time using available controls (for example, the cookie preferences interface) or by contacting us through our contact page.

Advertising and Analytics Partners

We may use advertising and analytics partners to help serve contextually relevant ads and understand aggregated patterns (for example, which pages people find helpful). These partners may collect or receive Usage Data to provide their services to us.

Ad personalization options and regional privacy controls can limit certain data uses. Where consent is required for specific cookies or identifiers, we request it through our banner or settings and respect your choices.

Data Sharing

We share Personal Data only as necessary: with Service Providers under contract (hosting, security, analytics, advertising support), to comply with legal obligations, or to protect our rights and users' safety. We may share aggregated or de-identified data that does not reasonably identify you.

In the event of a business restructuring, merger, or asset transfer, information may be part of the transferred assets subject to safeguards and continued protection consistent with this notice.

Data Retention

We keep Personal Data only as long as needed for the purposes described here, including to respond to your requests, comply with law, resolve disputes, and maintain site integrity.

Usage Data used for analytics or security is generally kept for shorter periods, unless needed to improve reliability or meet legal requirements.

International Transfers

Information may be processed in locations outside your province or country. Where cross-border handling occurs, we apply safeguards that align with applicable laws, such as contractual protections and strict access controls.

By using our website or providing information, you acknowledge these arrangements and the protections we put in place.

Security

We use administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect Personal Data against unauthorized access, alteration, or loss. No method is perfectly secure, but we work to reduce risk and monitor for misuse.

Your choices also matter: keep devices updated, use strong passwords, and prefer private networks where appropriate to help protect your browsing.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your location, you may have rights such as access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, or the right to withdraw consent. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

To exercise rights or make a request, contact us using the details below. We will verify your request and respond within a reasonable time consistent with applicable laws.

Children's Privacy

Our website is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect Personal Data from children under 13.

If you believe a child has provided Personal Data through our site, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps.

Do Not Track and Regional Signals

Some browsers offer "Do Not Track" or Global Privacy Control signals. Where feasible and required, we treat such signals as requests to limit certain data uses and map them to available preference settings.

Because standards continue to evolve, our handling of these signals may change over time to remain aligned with emerging requirements.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this notice to reflect improvements, new features, or legal requirements. When we make material changes, we will adjust the "Last updated" date and, when appropriate, provide an additional notice on the site.

We encourage you to review this page from time to time so you know how your information is protected and used.

Contact Us

If you have questions, privacy requests, or concerns, please reach out via our contact page. We will respond as promptly and transparently as we can.
