JAPONISTA — Data Sharing Opt-Out

Your trust matters deeply to us. This page explains how we use certain types of information collected through cookies and similar technologies, and how you can control whether that information is shared with third parties for advertising purposes.

While this page relates to our broader Privacy Policy, it exists as a separate, dedicated space to give you clear control over the specific type of personal information sharing that some U.S. state laws classify as a “sale,” “sharing,” or “targeted advertising.”

How We Use Personal Information Online

When you browse Japonista, we may collect certain details through:

• Cookies
• Analytics tools
• Device or browser identifiers
• Interaction data (pages viewed, items added to cart, etc.)

Some of this information may be shared with trusted advertising partners to help us show you more relevant content or promotions on other platforms.

This type of data use may fall under regulated categories in certain states, even if no financial exchange occurs.

Your Rights Under U.S. State Privacy Laws

If you live in a state with enhanced privacy protections, you may have the right to opt out of:

• The “sale” of personal information
• The “sharing” of personal information
• Targeted advertising based on your activity across different websites

These rights apply only in specific U.S. states.

Global Privacy Control (GPC)

If your browser or device has Global Privacy Control (GPC) enabled, we will—where required—treat that signal as a request to opt out of personal information “selling,” “sharing,” or the use of data for targeted advertising for the browser/device you are currently using.

No further action is needed on your part.

How to Opt Out Manually

If you are browsing from an eligible U.S. state and would like to opt out manually, please use the selection tool or form provided below on this page. Once submitted, we will adjust how we use and share cookie-based information for the device and browser you used during your visit.

Please note:

• Opt-out settings may not transfer across devices or browsers.
• Clearing cookies may reset your preferences.
