How We Use Cookies
Last Updated: May 6, 2025
This site currently does not use cookies that require your consent. We have chosen privacy-focused tools that do not track personal data or place cookies on your device.
1. What We Use (Currently)
We have chosen to launch our website using privacy-focused third party tools and avoid collecting personal data on our own site.
- Plausible Analytics is a privacy first analytics company that helps us understand overall site performance without collecting any personal data of our visitors.
- Mapbox powers our onsen maps and may log your IP address for technical functionality only.
- Travelpayouts: when you click a “Book now” link, our affiliate partner may set a referral cookie (up to 30 days) on their domain to credit any booking. You can learn more in the Travelpayouts Cookie Policy.
2. In the Future
We may introduce features that require consent, such as:
- Embedded video or social content (e.g., YouTube, Instagram)
- Personalized ads or retargeting tools
When that happens, this page will allow you to:
- Customize your cookie preferences
- Accept or decline non-essential cookies
- Learn more about how we use your data
3. How to Manage Cookies
Affiliate cookies are set on our partners’ domains, not here. To disable them, adjust your browser’s third-party cookie settings or use private/incognito mode before clicking any “Book now” link.
