1. Scope and operator
This policy applies to AkiyaBeacon, an English-language property discovery website operated by MARU LLC in Japan. It does not apply to municipal websites, real-estate portals, or other external services linked from AkiyaBeacon.
2. Information processed today
AkiyaBeacon currently has no user accounts, newsletter, property inquiry form, or payment function. When you access the website, our hosting provider may process technical request data needed to deliver and protect the service. This can include:
- IP address and approximate network or location information;
- requested URL, including search terms entered into the site search;
- date and time of access;
- browser, device, operating-system, and user-agent information; and
- traffic, error, diagnostic, and security-event information.
If you contact MARU LLC through its external contact form, the information you submit is handled under the privacy terms shown on that website and is used to review and respond to your request.
3. Why this information is used
Technical information is used only as reasonably necessary to:
- deliver pages and keep the website available;
- detect abuse, attacks, and unauthorized access;
- investigate errors and improve reliability; and
- understand service performance in aggregate.
4. Cookies, analytics, and advertising
AkiyaBeacon uses Cloudflare Web Analytics to understand page views, visits, referral sources, device and browser categories, approximate country-level traffic, and page-performance measurements in aggregate. Cloudflare states that this service does not use cookies or collect or use visitors' personal data. Query strings are not included in Web Analytics reports.
The advertising area shown on the website is a placeholder for a future free-to-read business model; no third-party behavioral advertising or advertising cookies are currently active. Google Analytics is not active unless and until a separate consent-based implementation is published here. Before additional analytics or advertising technology is introduced, this policy will be updated to name the provider, describe the data and purpose, and add any consent or opt-out controls required by applicable law.
5. Hosting and service providers
AkiyaBeacon is hosted on Cloudflare Workers and uses Cloudflare Web Analytics. Cloudflare may process IP addresses, routing data, page-performance measurements, and other traffic information while providing delivery, security, analytics, and diagnostic services. Processing may occur outside your country because Cloudflare operates a global network. See the Cloudflare Privacy Policy.
6. Sharing and sale of information
MARU LLC does not sell or rent visitor personal information. Information may be handled by contracted service providers acting for website operation, or disclosed when required by law or reasonably necessary to protect users, the service, or the rights and safety of others.
7. Retention and security
Information is retained only for as long as reasonably needed for the purposes above, legal obligations, or the resolution of security and operational issues. We use reasonable access controls and service-provider safeguards, but no online service can guarantee absolute security.
8. Your requests
You may ask about personal information handled by MARU LLC, or request access, correction, deletion, or other action available under applicable law. We may need to confirm your identity and the scope of the request before responding.
9. External links
Listing pages link to third-party municipal and authorized program sources, including pages that display official property photos. The destination site's privacy, cookie, and copyright terms apply after you leave AkiyaBeacon.
10. Changes and contact
This policy may be revised when the service or applicable requirements change. Material changes will be identified by the updated date on this page.
