Privacy Policy

Who we are

All about Korea, at majungmulkorea.com, provides Korean language learning materials and information about Korean culture. This policy explains information handled when you browse the site, use available features, or contact us. For privacy questions, please use the Contact Us page.

Comments

When visitors leave comments on the site we collect the data shown in the comments form, and also the visitor’s IP address and browser user agent string to help spam detection.

An anonymized string created from your email address (also called a hash) may be provided to the Gravatar service to see if you are using it. The Gravatar service privacy policy is available here: https://automattic.com/privacy/. After approval of your comment, your profile picture is visible to the public in the context of your comment.

Media

If you are authorized to upload media to this website, remove unnecessary personal information and embedded location data (EXIF GPS) before uploading. Information embedded in a publicly accessible image may be extracted by people who download it.

Cookies

If you leave a comment on our site you may opt-in to saving your name, email address and website in cookies. These are for your convenience so that you do not have to fill in your details again when you leave another comment. These cookies will last for one year.

If you visit our login page, we will set a temporary cookie to determine if your browser accepts cookies. This cookie contains no personal data and is discarded when you close your browser.

When you log in, we will also set up several cookies to save your login information and your screen display choices. Login cookies last for two days, and screen options cookies last for a year. If you select "Remember Me", your login will persist for two weeks. If you log out of your account, the login cookies will be removed.

If you edit or publish an article, an additional cookie will be saved in your browser. This cookie includes no personal data and simply indicates the post ID of the article you just edited. It expires after 1 day.

Embedded content from other websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content (e.g. videos, images, articles, etc.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if the visitor has visited the other website.

These websites may collect data about you, use cookies, embed additional third-party tracking, and monitor your interaction with that embedded content, including tracking your interaction with the embedded content if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

Who we share your data with

Information may be processed by the providers involved in hosting and securing the website, delivering email, measuring traffic, displaying advertising, or providing embedded content, as described in this policy. The information involved depends on the feature you use. For an existing site account, requesting a password reset may include your IP address in the reset email.

How long we retain your data

Where comments are available, submitted comments and their metadata may remain with the discussion indefinitely unless removed, including to recognize follow-up comments and address spam. You may request deletion using the contact method below. Inquiry correspondence is kept for handling and following up on the inquiry and related administrative needs; contact us to ask about or request deletion of your correspondence. Information held by third-party services is also subject to their retention policies and applicable service settings.

Public self-registration is currently disabled. For existing authorized site accounts, WordPress stores profile information for account administration. Account holders can review and update their profile information, except their username, and may request deletion. Site administrators can access account information for administration and support.

What rights you have over your data

You may contact us to ask about personal information you have provided through an inquiry, an available comment feature, or an existing site account, and to request access, correction, an export where available, or deletion. We may need to verify that the information relates to you before acting on a request. Some information may need to be retained for legal, administrative, or security purposes. Please use the Contact Us page; do not send passwords or unnecessary sensitive documents.

Where your data is sent

Visitor comments may be checked through an automated spam detection service.

Website traffic and Google Analytics

We use Google Analytics through Site Kit by Google to understand which pages visitors use and to improve our Korean language and culture content. Analytics can collect information about page views, interactions, the referring website, and browser or device characteristics, using cookies or similar identifiers depending on the configuration and your choices. When your browser connects to Google services, technical information such as the page URL and IP address is sent to Google.

Learn more about how Google processes information from partner sites. You can manage cookies in your browser and, on supported browsers, use the Google Analytics opt-out browser add-on. Turning off personalized advertising does not by itself turn off Analytics.

Technical operation and service providers

Providing this website involves processing technical request information, such as IP addresses, browser details, requested pages, and request times, through website hosting, caching, and security services. This information supports page delivery, troubleshooting, and protection against abuse. When you send an email inquiry, the email service processes your message and contact details so we can receive and answer it.

Google advertising and your choices

When Google ads are served on this site, Google and other advertising providers may use cookies and similar technologies to select ads using visits to this and other websites. These technologies may involve identifiers, IP addresses, and information about browsing activity. Google advertising cookies allow Google and its partners to personalize ads.

You can manage personalized advertising through Google Ads Settings. Options for participating third-party providers are available at YourAdChoices. You can also manage cookies in your browser; blocking cookies may affect some website features.

Read how Google uses information from partner sites and Google’s Privacy Policy. Advertising availability and personalization depend on your location, consent choices, and the services active on the page.
