Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 2026
About this policy
This privacy policy applies to Kauai Treasures Journal, available at https://journal.kauaitreasures.com. Kauai Treasures Journal is operated by Tristarz LLC. The Journal is an editorial and content website associated with the Kauai Treasures ecommerce store at kauaitreasures.com. Other websites linked from the Journal, including KauaiTreasures.com, may have their own privacy practices, and this policy does not apply to them.
Information received automatically
When you visit the Journal, the normal web infrastructure that delivers and secures the site may process a limited amount of technical information, such as:
- IP address
- browser and device information
- requested pages
- timestamps
- referring pages
- technical and server information
This information supports the basic operation and security of the site and is not used to build detailed personal profiles about visitors.
Analytics
The Journal is being prepared for Google Analytics 4 (GA4), but a GA4 measurement ID has not yet been supplied and GA4 is not currently active. If and when analytics are enabled, an analytics service may collect information about how visitors use the Journal, such as pages viewed, referring sources, device and browser information, approximate geographic information, and interactions with the site. This information would be used to understand site usage and improve the Journal.
Google Search Console may also be used to understand how the Journal appears in search results. Search Console is a search-performance and verification tool; it is not visitor-tracking JavaScript embedded in the Journal's pages.
Links to Kauai Treasures
The Journal links to products and pages on KauaiTreasures.com. These links may contain UTM parameters that identify that the visitor came from Kauai Treasures Journal, the article or section that generated the referral, and, in some cases, the particular product placement. These parameters are used for traffic attribution so we can see which content is useful.
Purchases and checkout occur on KauaiTreasures.com rather than on the Journal. The Journal does not receive or process payment-card information merely because a visitor follows one of these links. For more detail, see the Kauai Treasures store privacy policy.
Third-party and related websites
Journal content may link to KauaiTreasures.com, Kauaʻi Insider, authoritative sources, and other external resources. Each external site has its own privacy practices and policies. KauaiTreasures.com is a related website rather than an unrelated third party, and its data practices are governed by its own privacy policy.
Cookies and similar technologies
The Journal uses only the cookies and similar technologies required to deliver the site and, if enabled, the analytics described above. It does not use advertising cookies, behavioral advertising, remarketing, the Meta Pixel, or Google Ads tracking. If materially different tracking or advertising technologies are introduced in the future, this Privacy Policy will be updated to describe them accurately.
Data retention
Technical or analytics information that is processed may be retained according to the applicable hosting and service configuration and the relevant provider policies. The Journal does not maintain its own fixed retention schedule for this information.
Children's privacy
The Journal is intended for a general audience and is not directed to children under 13. It does not knowingly collect personal information from children. No age verification is performed.
Privacy choices
Visitors can use their browser settings to manage cookies and similar browser storage where applicable. If analytics controls become available, they may be described accurately here. The Journal does not promise controls it does not actually provide.
Changes to this policy
This Privacy Policy may be updated from time to time. The Last updated date at the top of this page will reflect any revisions.
