Privacy Policy — asiancoastline.com

This policy explains what happens when you stream a track, read a guide, or see an ad. The short version: no account is required, and the player does not build a listening profile.

Streaming and logs

The player requests public audio files from a hosting provider. Like most websites, that provider may process standard technical logs such as IP address, user agent, requested URL, and timestamps for security and reliability. The player does not require an identity and does not create an account-level listening history.

Favorites, queue, and the cookie choice are stored locally in your browser. Clearing site data removes them. They are not synced to a server.

Cookies and advertising

We may use cookies or similar storage for essential site function, such as remembering your cookie choice. When Google AdSense is active on editorial pages, Google and its partners may use cookies or device information to serve and measure ads, including ads based on visits to this site or other sites.

The AdSense publisher ID for this site is ca-pub-0646320966060599. You can review Google’s advertising controls at policies.google.com/technologies/ads and manage personalized ads at adssettings.google.com. Blocking advertising cookies may affect personalization but does not lock the player or the guides.

Consent

The site shows a cookie banner with Accept and Decline. Your choice is stored locally. If you decline, the banner will not keep asking on every page. You can change the choice by clearing the site’s local storage in your browser settings.

Third parties

  • GitHub Pages — hosts the static site and may keep standard access logs.
  • Hugging Face — hosts the public stream files; its own terms and logs apply.
  • Google AdSense — serves advertising on editorial pages when active.
  • PayPal — handles optional support payments under its own policy.

Retention and children

We do not maintain reader accounts or an uploaded-audio database. Email correspondence is kept only as long as needed to answer the request. This is a general music site; we do not knowingly collect personal information from children, and no account is required.

Changes and contact

If this policy changes, the update date at the top of the page will change. For privacy questions, email excavationstation@gmail.com with “Asian Coastline privacy” in the subject. See also the terms of use.

Your controls

You can clear the cookie choice and local favorites through your browser’s site-data settings. You can block third-party cookies; the player and guides still work. You can use the site without an account, and you can email a privacy request without creating one.

If you use a content blocker, some ad requests may be blocked. That does not affect playback. If you want to support the site without advertising cookies, the optional support link is the direct route.
