Last updated: 2 July 2026

tokuAsia (“we”, “us”, “our”) operates tokuasia.com. This Privacy Policy explains what personal data we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have. We are based in Singapore and handle personal data in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act 2012 (PDPA). Where visitors access this site from other jurisdictions, we aim to meet comparable standards such as the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).

Information We Collect

Information you provide to us

• Comments: When you leave a comment, we collect the name, email address, and website you enter, along with the comment itself and your IP address to help with spam detection.
• Contact: When you email us or use our contact page, we collect your name, email address, and the contents of your message so we can respond to you.

Information collected automatically

• Log data: Like most websites, our hosting provider records standard technical data such as IP addresses, browser type, referring pages, and timestamps.
• Cookies: This site uses cookies, which are small text files stored in your browser. Cookies help us remember comment details and understand how the site is used.
• Analytics: We may use analytics services to understand aggregate traffic patterns, such as which articles are popular and where visitors come from. This data is aggregated and does not identify you personally.

Advertising and Third-Party Cookies

We use Google AdSense to display advertisements on this site. Google and its partners use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this website and other websites.

• Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visits to this site and other sites on the internet.
• You may opt out of personalised advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.
• You can also opt out of some third-party vendors’ use of cookies for personalised advertising by visiting www.aboutads.info.
• For more information on how Google uses data when you use our site, see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services.

Third-party vendors and ad networks serving ads on this site may also use cookies. We do not control these cookies. You can manage or delete cookies through your browser settings, though some site features may not work correctly without them.

Embedded Content from Other Websites

Articles on this site may include embedded content such as YouTube videos, social media posts, and images hosted elsewhere. Embedded content from other websites behaves exactly as if you had visited the other website directly. Those websites may collect data about you, use cookies, and monitor your interaction with the embedded content, including tracking your interaction if you have an account and are logged in to that website.

How We Use Your Information

• To publish and moderate comments
• To respond to enquiries and correspondence
• To maintain the security of the site and prevent spam and abuse
• To understand how the site is used so we can improve our content
• To display advertising that supports the running of this site

We do not sell your personal data. We only share personal data with service providers who help us operate the site (such as hosting and the advertising partners described above) or where required by law.

How Long We Keep Your Data

• Comments and their metadata are retained indefinitely so that follow-up comments can be recognised and approved automatically.
• Correspondence is retained for as long as needed to handle your enquiry.

Your Rights

Subject to applicable law, you have the right to:

• Request access to the personal data we hold about you
• Request correction of inaccurate personal data
• Request deletion of your personal data, including comments you have left, except data we must keep for legal, security, or administrative purposes

Children’s Privacy

This site is a general-audience publication about tokusatsu and Asian superhero media. We do not knowingly collect personal data from children. If you believe a child has provided us with personal data, contact us and we will delete it.

Security

We take reasonable technical and organisational measures to protect personal data, including serving the site over HTTPS. No method of transmission over the internet is completely secure, so we cannot guarantee absolute security.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. The date at the top of this page shows when it was last revised. Continued use of the site after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
