Privacy Policy

Last updated: August 31, 2025

This Privacy Policy explains how Rimu Media ("we", "us", or "our") collects, uses, shares, and protects personal information when you visit or use our website and related features (the "Service"). We publish this notice to be transparent, to comply with applicable laws, and to help you make informed choices.

Who We Are

Controller: Rimu Media. For privacy questions or requests, please contact us via our contact page.

Scope

This Policy covers personal information collected online through our website and any contact forms or interactive features we operate. It does not cover websites or services we do not control.

Information We Collect

We collect only what we need to operate, improve, and secure the Service:

• Information You Provide: contact details (e.g., email address) and message content when you write to us or submit a form.
• Automatically Collected Data: IP address, device and browser type/version, general location (country/region), pages viewed, time spent, and diagnostic logs.
• Inferred Information: basic preferences derived from on-site interactions (e.g., the topics you read).

We do not intentionally collect sensitive personal data. Please do not send confidential health, financial, or government-ID information through open forms.

How We Use Information

• Provide the Service: operate pages, deliver content, maintain availability, and fix issues.
• Measure and Improve: understand traffic and performance to keep the site useful and fast.
• Safety and Abuse Prevention: prevent spam, fraud, and misuse; maintain security.
• Communications: respond to messages or requests you send.
• Legal Compliance: meet obligations and enforce terms.

Legal Bases (Where Applicable)

Where privacy laws such as GDPR/UK GDPR apply, we rely on one or more lawful bases: consent (for non-essential cookies/ads), legitimate interests (basic analytics, security), contract (when you ask us to perform actions you requested), and legal obligations.

Cookies, Consent, and Preferences

We use cookies and similar technologies for essential functions, performance/analytics, and advertising. Visitors from regions that require consent (e.g., EEA/UK/Switzerland) will see a banner that lets you accept, reject, or fine-tune categories. Your choices adjust our tags via consent controls, so measurement and ads respect the preferences you set.

• Essential: required to load pages, keep sessions secure, and prevent abuse.
• Analytics: help us understand visits and improve the Service.
• Advertising: support ad delivery and, where permitted, personalization and frequency capping.

You can change or withdraw consent any time via the "Cookie Preferences" control in the site footer (when available) or your browser settings. If you refuse non-essential cookies, some features may be limited.

Analytics and Advertising

We may work with measurement and advertising providers to deliver non-personalized or, where permitted, personalized ads and to analyze performance. These providers may use cookies or similar technologies set through our pages. Where required by law, we request and record your consent and honor your choices.

Sharing Your Information

We share personal information only as needed:

• Service Providers (Processors): hosting, analytics, security, ad delivery—bound by contract to use data only on our instructions.
• Legal and Safety: to comply with law, protect our rights or users, or investigate abuse.
• Business Changes: if we reorganize or transfer assets, information may move as part of that process with equivalent safeguards.
• With Your Direction: if you ask us to share or connect your information.

We do not sell your personal information. In jurisdictions where "sale" or "sharing" includes certain advertising and measurement activities, you may opt out as described below.

Retention

We keep personal information only as long as necessary for the purposes above, then delete or irreversibly anonymize it. Factors include legal requirements, security needs, and the time needed to resolve disputes.

International Transfers

We may process data outside your country. Where required, we use appropriate safeguards (such as contractual commitments) to protect transferred data.

Security

We use reasonable technical and organizational measures to protect personal information. No method of transmission or storage is fully secure; we continuously improve controls to reduce risk.

Your Privacy Rights

Depending on where you live, you may have some or all of the following rights: access, correction, deletion, restriction, objection, portability, withdrawal of consent, and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.

EEA/UK/Switzerland

For personal data under GDPR/UK GDPR, you can request access, rectification, erasure, restriction, or portability, or object to processing based on legitimate interests. Where processing relies on consent, you can withdraw it at any time.

California (US)

You may have rights to know, correct, delete, and to opt out of the sale or sharing of personal information, including via a user-enabled Global Privacy Control signal. We will honor such signals where detected. You will not be discriminated against for exercising your rights.

Brazil (LGPD)

You may request confirmation of processing, access, correction, anonymization or deletion of unnecessary/excessive data, portability (when applicable), information on sharing, and you may oppose processing in certain cases.

Indonesia (PDP Law)

You may request information about processing, access and copies, correction, deletion, restriction or postponement of processing, withdrawal of consent, object to automated decisions that have significant effects, and seek remedies where permitted.

How To Exercise Your Rights

Please contact us through our contact page. To help verify your request, we may ask for limited additional information. If we cannot fulfill a request due to legal or security reasons, we will explain why.

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 provided information, contact us so we can remove it. In regions with different consent ages for minors, we follow the applicable age and obtain parental consent where required.

Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control

Browser "Do Not Track" signals are not standardized; however, where required by law, we treat recognized opt-out preference signals (such as a supported Global Privacy Control) as a valid request to opt out of sale/sharing for the device or browser sending the signal.

Third-Party Links

Our Service may reference other sites we do not control. Their privacy practices are their own. We encourage you to review their policies.

Changes To This Policy

We may update this Policy to reflect changes in law or our practices. We will post the updated version on this page and revise the "Last updated" date. Material changes will be highlighted in a notice on the site.
