GoNorth Japan (“we,” “us,” or “our”) respects your privacy and is committed to protecting your personal data. This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, and protect your information when you use this website. We only collect personal data that you voluntarily provide to us. This may include:

• Your name
• Your email address
• Message content submitted via contact forms
• Newsletter subscription information
• Booking-related information when you request or book a tour

We do not collect personal data for any other purposes. We use your personal data solely for the following purposes:

• Responding to inquiries and messages
• Communicating with you about tours or travel-related questions
• Processing tour bookings and related communication
• Sending newsletters, if you have explicitly subscribed

We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data for marketing or advertising purposes. We process personal data based on one or more of the following legal grounds:

• Your consent (e.g. contact forms and newsletter subscriptions)
• Performance of a contract or pre-contractual steps (e.g. tour bookings)

You may withdraw your consent at any time. Your personal data is stored securely and only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes outlined in this policy or to comply with legal obligations.
When your data is no longer required, it will be deleted or anonymized. We do not sell, rent, or share your personal data for marketing or advertising purposes.
However, we use certain third-party service providers that are necessary to operate the website and provide our services. These may include website hosting providers, email delivery services, interactive map services, and embedded media services.

When you provide consent to load interactive map features, map functionality is provided through third-party services including:

• Mapbox, Inc. https://www.mapbox.com/
• TheJapanMap API https://www.thejapanmap.com/

When the map is loaded, your browser connects to servers operated by these providers. In the process, technical data such as your IP address, browser type, device information, and referrer information may be transmitted in order to deliver and improve map functionality.

TheJapanMap operates a REST-based API and may process request data generated when users interact with the map (for example when loading channels, searching for videos, or interacting with map elements).

These providers act as independent data controllers and process data according to their own operational practices.
