Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 24, 2025

Ako Media respects your privacy. This policy explains what information we collect when you visit our site, how we use and share it, and the choices you have. It applies to all visitors and readers of akomedia.biz.id and any pages that link to this policy.

By using the site, you acknowledge that you have read this policy. If you do not agree with any part of it, you may choose not to use the site or adjust your preferences where available.

Scope and Overview

This policy covers information collected through our website, contact forms, email, and on-site interactions. It does not apply to services we do not control or to third-party websites that may be referenced for context.

Some privacy rights and responsibilities vary by region. Where applicable law provides additional rights or obligations, we honor them and explain how you can exercise your choices.

Information We Collect

Information you provide: We may receive information you share with us—such as your name, email address, and message content—when you contact us or submit forms. If comments or submissions are enabled, we collect what you post and related metadata for moderation and security.

Information collected automatically: When you visit, we and our service providers may automatically collect usage data, including IP address, device and browser type, operating system, referring and exit pages, pages viewed, time spent, and general location inferred from IP. We use cookies, local storage, pixels, and similar technologies to enable core features and understand site performance.

Information from partners: In limited cases, we may receive aggregated or de-identified information from analytics, advertising, or anti-abuse partners to help measure traffic, detect fraud or abuse, and improve reliability.

How We Use Information

• Operate, maintain, and improve the site and its features.
• Provide and personalize content, including remembering preferences where available.
• Measure and analyze performance to understand what readers find useful.
• Maintain security, prevent abuse, and diagnose technical issues.
• Respond to inquiries and feedback you send to us.
• Where advertising appears, deliver, limit, and measure ads and understand audience trends at an aggregate level (we do not use sensitive categories for ad targeting).

Legal Bases for Processing

For visitors in regions that require a legal basis (for example, the EEA and UK), we rely on one or more of the following: your consent; our legitimate interests in operating, protecting, and improving the site; performance of a contract when we provide requested features; and compliance with legal obligations.

When we rely on consent, you can withdraw it at any time using available controls. When we rely on legitimate interests, we balance those interests against your privacy rights and expectations.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use essential cookies to make the site work, and optional cookies for analytics and advertising. Similar technologies (such as local storage or pixels) may also be used to remember preferences and analyze how pages perform.

Your choices: You can manage cookies in your browser or device settings and with any consent tools we provide. Disabling certain cookies may impact functionality. At this time, our site does not respond to all browser-based Do Not Track signals.

Advertising and Analytics Partners

We may work with third-party advertising networks and analytics providers (including contextual programs such as advertising networks akin to Google AdSense). These partners may set or read cookies and use identifiers to show ads, limit ad frequency, measure ad performance, and understand readership trends. When ads load, your IP address and basic device information may be received by these partners.

You can adjust cookie settings in your browser or device to reduce tracking and ad personalization. Choices are specific to each browser and device you use.

When We Share Information

• Service providers: We may share information with vendors who help us operate the site, perform analytics, or provide support services under appropriate safeguards.
• Legal and safety: We may disclose information if required by law or when we believe it is necessary to protect rights, safety, and property, including our readers and the public.
• Business transfers: If we undergo a reorganization or transfer of assets, information may be part of the transaction, subject to this policy or a policy that offers materially similar protections.
• With your direction or consent: We may share information for any other purpose disclosed to you at the time of collection, with your consent.

Data Retention

We retain personal information for as long as needed to provide the site, fulfill the purposes described in this policy, resolve disputes, and meet legal requirements. Aggregated or de-identified data may be retained longer for analytics.

When retention is no longer necessary, we take steps to delete or de-identify information in a reasonable timeframe, subject to technical and legal constraints.

International Data Transfers

Your information may be processed in countries other than your own, which may have different data-protection rules. Where required, we implement safeguards designed to protect your information during transfer (for example, contractual protections and partner due diligence). Regardless of location, we handle your data as described in this policy.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on your jurisdiction, you may have rights to access, correct, delete, restrict, or object to processing of your personal information; to withdraw consent; and to request a portable copy of your data. You may also have the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority where applicable.

• EEA/UK: You may exercise the rights above and may object where we process information based on legitimate interests.
• California: You may have rights to know, delete, and correct personal information and to opt out of certain data sharing for cross-context behavioral advertising. We do not "sell" personal information as defined by applicable law.

To make a request, contact us with enough detail to verify your identity and locate the information at issue. We will respond within a reasonable period, consistent with applicable law.

Children's Privacy

Our content is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13. If you believe a child has provided personal information on our site, please contact us so we can take appropriate action. If we learn that we have collected such information, we will delete it in a reasonable timeframe, subject to legal obligations.

Security

We use administrative, technical, and organizational measures designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, or alteration. No method of transmission over the internet or electronic storage is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Third-Party Links and Services

Our site may include references or links to third-party websites or services. Their handling of information is governed by their own policies and practices, which we do not control or endorse. Review third-party terms and privacy information before using their services or providing data.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this policy to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, or legal requirements. Material changes will be communicated by updating this page and, where appropriate, by providing additional notice within the site.

Your continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised policy. We encourage you to review this page periodically.
