Privacy Policy

Last updated: 30 September 2026

OKYTO is an independent luxury travel and lifestyle publication based in Hong Kong. We believe privacy information should be clear enough to read without a lawyer beside you, so this page explains what information we may collect, why we use it and the choices available to you.

Information you choose to send us

If you contact OKYTO through our contact form, we may collect the information you provide, including your name and email address, together with any optional subject, message or other details you choose to submit.

We use this information to read and respond to your enquiry, assess editorial tips or press information, manage partnership enquiries and maintain appropriate records of our correspondence. Contact-form information is not used for direct marketing unless you have separately chosen to receive it.

Information collected when you visit OKYTO

Like most websites, OKYTO and the services that support it may process limited technical information when you visit, such as your IP address, browser and device information, pages viewed, approximate location derived from technical data, referring pages and the date and time of your visit.

We may use this information to operate and secure the site, understand how readers use OKYTO, measure the performance of our content and improve the publication.

Cookies and analytics

OKYTO may use cookies and similar technologies for essential website functions, security, audience measurement and analytics. Some of these technologies may be provided by third-party services used to operate or understand the site.

You can control or remove cookies through your browser settings. Disabling some cookies may affect certain website features. Where applicable, we will provide additional choices for non-essential cookies.

Embedded content and external services

Articles may occasionally include embedded content or links from third-party services, for example social-media posts, videos, maps or other external material. When you interact with those services, the third party may process information under its own privacy policy. OKYTO does not control how independent third-party websites handle your information.

Who we share information with

We do not sell your personal information.

We may use trusted service providers to help host, protect, analyse or operate OKYTO and to process messages submitted through the site. They may process information only as needed to provide those services. Some providers or their systems may be located outside Hong Kong, which means information can be processed in other jurisdictions.

We may also disclose information when reasonably necessary to comply with applicable law, protect the security of the site or protect the rights of OKYTO or others.

How long we keep information

We keep personal information only for as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, including responding to correspondence, maintaining editorial or business records, protecting the site and meeting applicable legal requirements.

Your personal data

OKYTO handles personal data in accordance with applicable Hong Kong privacy requirements, including the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Cap. 486).

If you would like to ask what personal data we hold about you, request access or correction, or raise a privacy question, please use our Contact page. We may need enough information to verify your identity before acting on a request.

Changes to this policy

We may update this Privacy Policy as OKYTO grows, introduces new services or changes the tools used to operate the site. The latest version and its update date will always appear on this page.
