Privacy Policy
This policy explains how Island Minchuang Limited handles information when you visit OFF HOURS or contact us. It is effective September 7, 2026.
Who we are
OFF HOURS is operated by Island Minchuang Limited. For privacy questions or requests, email elvin34new@gmail.com.
Information you provide
If you email us, we receive the information included in your message, such as your name, email address and any other details you choose to provide. We use it only to respond to your request, handle corrections or feedback, and maintain necessary business records.
Information collected automatically
Our hosting provider and advertising provider may process limited technical and usage data, such as an IP address, browser and device information, requested page, approximate location, date and time, and interactions with advertisements. This information may be used to deliver and measure advertising, prevent fraud, secure the website and diagnose technical problems.
Advertising and Google Ad Manager
OFF HOURS uses Google Ad Manager to display advertising. Google and its advertising partners may use cookies, local storage or similar technologies to deliver, limit, personalize and measure ads, depending on your location and consent choices. Learn more about how Google uses information from sites that use its services.
Local preferences and cookies
The theme control saves your light or dark mode preference in your browser's local storage. Advertising services may also use cookies or similar local identifiers. You can manage or delete stored data through your browser settings and use any privacy choices presented on the site.
How we use and share information
We use information to operate and secure the website, display and measure advertising, respond to communications, comply with legal obligations and protect our rights. We do not sell personal information. We may share limited information with service providers that support hosting, advertising or email, when required by law, or when reasonably necessary to prevent fraud or security threats.
Retention and security
We keep correspondence only as long as reasonably necessary for the purpose for which it was received, including legal, accounting or security needs, and then delete or anonymize it where practical. Advertising and hosting providers apply their own retention practices. We use reasonable safeguards, but no internet transmission or storage system is completely secure.
External links
Articles and advertisements may link to third-party websites. Those services operate under their own privacy policies, and Island Minchuang Limited is not responsible for their privacy practices.
Children
OFF HOURS is a general-interest publication and is not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children. If you believe a child has provided information to us, please contact us so we can delete it.
Your choices and rights
Depending on where you live, you may have rights to request access to, correction of or deletion of your personal information, or to object to or restrict certain processing. You can also manage advertising preferences through the controls made available by Google or your browser. To make a request to us, email elvin34new@gmail.com. We may need to verify your identity before responding.
Changes to this policy
We may update this policy when our website, advertising practices or legal obligations change. The effective date at the top of this page will show when the latest version took effect.
