Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026

SewaKostBali ("we", "us", or "our") operates sewakostbali.com, a directory of boarding house (kost) and rental accommodation listings in Bali. This Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, how we use it, and the choices you have.

Information We Collect

We collect limited technical information automatically when you visit the site, such as pages viewed, general location (country/region), device and browser type, and referral source, typically through Google Analytics and similar tools. If you contact a property through the WhatsApp links on this site, that conversation happens directly between you and the property contact and is not stored by us.

Cookies and Advertising

This site displays advertising served by Google, including Google AdSense. Google and its partners use cookies and similar technologies to serve ads based on your prior visits to this and other websites. You can learn more about how Google uses data from sites that use its services, and manage your ad personalization settings, at Google's Partner Sites policy and Google Ads Settings. Third-party vendors, including Google, may use cookies to serve ads based on a user's prior visits to this website or other websites. You can opt out of personalized advertising by visiting Google Ads Settings.

How Listing Data Is Sourced

Accommodation listings shown on this site are compiled from publicly available map and location data and reviewed by our team before publishing. We do not knowingly collect personal information from the property owners or agents referenced in listings beyond what is necessary to help users get in touch with them.

Data Protection

We use SSL (Secure Socket Layer) encryption to protect data in transit. Data storage is handled by our infrastructure providers (Supabase and Cloudinary) in distributed, redundant data centers.

Your Choices

You can control or disable cookies through your browser settings. Disabling cookies may affect how some parts of the site function. For advertising-specific opt-outs, use the Google Ads Settings link above.

Changes to This Policy

We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Changes take effect immediately once posted on this page, and the "Last updated" date above will reflect the most recent revision.
