Privacy and cookies

Cookies and analytics

At launch, the public site does not set marketing, advertising, or social-media cookies. Essential authentication cookies are used only when an editor signs in to the private administration area.

We use our self-hosted Plausible analytics service for aggregate, cookieless measurement. It is configured without form-submission, file-download, or outbound-link tracking.

If we later introduce advertising or affiliate links, we will clearly identify them and update this page before collecting data or setting non-essential cookies. Any consent required by applicable law will be requested before those cookies or similar technologies are used.

Contact and privacy requests

You can submit a privacy request, ask for a correction, or raise a content or media-rights question through our contact and requests form. It is handled through a managed Tasting Asia inbox; your submission is used only to handle the request and is not used for marketing.

Please provide only the information needed for us to understand and reply to your request. We delete the correspondence when it is no longer needed and no later than 90 days after the request is closed, unless we have a legal obligation to keep it longer.

Feedback, suggestions and improvements

For corrections, include the relevant page address, your proposed improvement, and any supporting source or rights information. We review substantiated requests and correct, clarify, or remove material when appropriate.
