Kokofami | Education guide for Japanese families in Southern California

Privacy Policy

Last updated:2026-06-16

Kokofami (kokofami.com, “this site”) provides comparison information on education, childcare, and lessons for Japanese families in Orange County and nearby areas. This policy explains how the site handles information. This site has no account or login feature and does not aim to collect personal information from users.

1. Analytics and cookies

2. Location data (important)

The “sort by nearest” feature uses your browser's location (latitude/longitude). These coordinates are used only on your device (in the browser) to compute distance to facilities and are never sent to our servers or any third party. It requires your browser's permission, and other features work without it. When filtering by ZIP code, the value is only matched against ZIP center coordinates on your device and is not sent or stored.

Note: Under California law (CPRA), “precise geolocation” is sensitive personal information, but this site does not collect, store, or sell it. Processing is limited to your device.

3. Connections to external services

Some features, such as the map, connect to the following external services. When connecting, your IP address and similar data may be conveyed to each service.

Each service's handling follows its own provider's policy.

4. Children's information (COPPA)

This site is an information service for parents and does not intend to collect personal information from children under 13. We provide no form for entering information about children.

5. Rights of California residents (CCPA / CPRA)

This site does not sell personal information. We do not share personal information with third parties. Because the site itself does not collect or store users' personal information on its servers (analytics are anonymous and aggregate, per §1), we hold no data subject to disclosure or deletion. If we later handle personal information (e.g., via an inquiry form), we will update this policy and provide the required notices and choices (such as opt-out).

6. Advertising and listings

This site may be operated through paid listings from providers (direct ads). Such placements are labeled (e.g., “PR”). Whether a listing exists is unrelated to how we handle your personal information.

7. Changes to this policy

Content may change without notice. When it does, we update the “Last updated” date on this page.

8. Contact

For questions about this policy, please contact the site operator (the Kokofami editorial team).
