Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy explains how Getpedia collects, uses, shares, and protects information when you visit or interact with our website. We aim for clear language, practical transparency, and controls you can use without guesswork.

This policy applies whenever you access Getpedia content, features, or forms. It covers site visitors, readers who contact us, and any subscribers to our updates. This page was last updated on September 7, 2025.

Who We Are

Getpedia is a practical guide for everyday life across four living terrains: Gardening, Home Improvement, Pets, and Travel. We publish how-to guides, checklists, and stories that prioritize safety, usability, and human warmth.

For privacy matters, we act as the controller for the personal data we process through this website. To reach us about this policy, please use our contact page at /p/contact.html.

Scope and Consent

By using our website, you consent to the practices described here, including the use of cookies and similar technologies as outlined below. If you do not agree, you may adjust your browser settings, decline non-essential cookies, or refrain from using the site.

This policy does not cover services we do not own or control. When content references third-party tools or platforms, their handling of your data is governed by their policies.

Information We Collect

We collect information that helps us operate the site, improve content, and communicate with readers. The categories we may collect include:

• Identifiers and Contact Details: such as your email address if you write to us via our contact page.
• Device and Technical Data: IP address, browser type and version, device type, operating system, and basic diagnostic information.
• Usage Data: pages visited, time spent, referring pages, and interactions that help us understand what content is useful.
• Cookies and Similar Technologies: small files or tags that store or access information on your device.
• Communications: messages you send us, including the content of your inquiry and our replies.

You can read most of Getpedia without telling us who you are. We do not intentionally collect sensitive categories of personal data via this site.

How We Use Your Information

We use information to provide and maintain the website, personalize and improve content, understand what readers find helpful, communicate when you reach out, and keep our services reliable and secure.

We may also use aggregated or de-identified data for analysis, performance measurement, and planning. We do not sell your personal information. Where regional laws treat certain ad or analytics activities as sharing, you can exercise the choices described below.

Cookies and Similar Technologies

We use cookies, pixels, and tags to remember preferences, measure performance, and support features such as load balancing and basic analytics. Some cookies are essential to deliver core site functionality; others are optional and help us improve your experience.

You can manage cookies in your browser or device settings. If you block or delete cookies, some features may not function as intended. When provided, site banners or settings panels will allow you to review and adjust non-essential cookies.

Advertising and Analytics

Getpedia may use display advertising and analytics services that collect or receive information from our site and other online properties to provide measurement, detect fraud and abuse, and, where enabled, deliver or assess personalized ads.

Your choices can include disabling cookies, limiting ad tracking in your device settings, or turning off ad personalization where your browser or account offers that control. Advertising helps keep our guides free to read; we apply the same editorial standards regardless of advertising.

Data Sharing and Transfers

We share personal data with service providers who support website hosting, security, performance, analytics, communications, and similar operations. We may also share information to comply with law, protect our rights, address fraud or security issues, or as part of a business restructuring.

Because our service providers may operate globally, your data may be processed in countries with laws different from your own. We take reasonable steps to help ensure appropriate protections for such transfers.

Data Retention

We keep personal data for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described here, comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, and enforce agreements. Retention periods depend on the type of data and the context in which it was collected.

We may retain aggregated, de-identified, or anonymized data for longer periods for trend analysis and reporting, without identifying you.

Your Rights and Choices

Your privacy rights vary by region, but may include the ability to access, correct, delete, or receive a copy of your personal data, to object to or restrict certain processing, and to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent.

• Access and Portability: request a copy of personal data we hold about you.
• Correction: ask us to fix inaccuracies or complete incomplete data.
• Deletion: request deletion, subject to applicable legal exceptions.
• Objection and Restriction: object to certain processing or ask us to limit it.
• Marketing and Personalization: opt out of direct messages and adjust ad personalization controls in your browser or device.

To exercise any of these rights, contact us via /p/contact.html. We may take steps to verify your identity before fulfilling your request and will respond within the time required by applicable law.

Children's Privacy

Our website is not directed to children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us so we can take appropriate steps.

Where local law sets a higher age for valid consent, we abide by that standard and may require consent from a parent or guardian before processing.

Security

We implement reasonable technical and organizational measures designed to protect personal data against accidental or unlawful access, loss, alteration, or misuse.

No method of transmission or storage is fully secure. While we work to safeguard information, we cannot guarantee absolute security.

International Users

If you access Getpedia from outside Indonesia, you understand that information may be processed where we or our service providers operate. Those locations may have different data protection laws than your country.

When we transfer personal data, we take reasonable steps to help ensure appropriate safeguards consistent with applicable requirements.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy to reflect changes in our practices, technologies, or legal requirements. We will post the updated version on this page and revise the update notice above.

For material changes, we may provide additional notice within the site. Continued use of the website after updates indicates your acknowledgment of the revised policy.

How to Contact Us

For questions, requests, or concerns about this Privacy Policy or our handling of personal data, please write to us via the contact page.

If you have an unresolved privacy concern, you may have the right to contact your local data protection authority. We appreciate the chance to address your concerns directly first.
