Korea Beauty Guide

Privacy Policy

This policy applies to the English section of nailstartup.com. It mirrors the Korean-language policy, which is the governing version where the two differ. Last updated August 20, 2026.

1. What we process, and why

This site publishes reference articles. It does not require registration, and it does not ask you for a name, email address, phone number or payment details. The information processed is limited to what is generated automatically when you visit:

  • Access logs, IP address, browser and device type
  • Cookies and similar identifiers set by this site and by third-party services
  • Aggregate usage measurement — which pages are read, and for how long

This is used to operate and improve the site and to serve advertising. It is not used for any other purpose, and any change of purpose would be notified in advance.

2. Retention

Personal information is destroyed without delay once the purpose of processing has been achieved. Access logs, cookies and IP information are retained for three months under the Protection of Communications Secrets Act.

3. Advertising and analytics

This site carries advertising served by Google AdSense. Google and its partners may use cookies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other sites. Google’s use of advertising cookies enables it and its partners to serve ads to you based on your visit to this site and other sites on the internet.

  • You can opt out of personalised advertising through Google Ads Settings.
  • Third-party vendor opt-outs are available at aboutads.info.
  • Aggregate traffic measurement is provided by Vercel Analytics, which does not use cookies to track individuals across sites.

4. Cookies

You can refuse or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings. Blocking all cookies will not prevent you from reading this site, since no feature here depends on being recognised between visits.

5. Your rights

As a data subject you may request access to, correction of, or deletion of your personal information, and may request that processing be suspended. Requests are handled without delay. Because this site does not collect identifying information directly, most requests concern cookie and advertising identifiers, which are controlled through the browser and vendor settings described above.

6. Third-party links

Articles here link to external sites and services. This policy does not apply to them, and we have no control over how they handle your information.

7. Operator

Waya Media Inc.
Business registration number: 105-87-55780
