Cookie Policy

Reference translation. The Japanese version is the operative, published document and prevails in the event of any discrepancy.

This Cookie Policy explains how Ano (あの), operated by WPIC Technology Japan LLC at https://ano.wpic.ai, uses cookies and similar technologies. It sits alongside our Privacy Policy, which describes how we handle personal information more generally.

What cookies are

Small files stored on your device that let a site work, remember your preferences, and — where you allow it — measure how the site is used.

Cookies we use

Strictly necessary. Required for the site to function, and to remember the cookie choice you make below so we do not ask again on every page. These are always set; the site cannot work without them.

Analytics. Google Analytics 4, loaded through Google Tag Manager, so we can see which pages are used and improve the site. These are set only if you accept.

We do not use advertising, marketing or remarketing cookies, and we do not use cookies to build advertising profiles.

Your choices

When you first visit, a banner asks whether you accept analytics cookies. Until you accept, nothing is loaded from Google and no analytics cookie is set — this applies to every visitor, wherever you are, not only to visitors in the EEA and the UK.

Accepting and declining are each a single click, and neither is presented more prominently than the other.

You can change your mind at any time using the "Cookie settings" link in the site footer, which reopens the banner. Declining after having accepted stops any further collection; to remove cookies already stored, clear them in your browser.

You can also control or block cookies in your browser settings. Blocking strictly necessary cookies may stop parts of the site working.

Analytics data

When you accept, Google Analytics 4 receives your cookie identifier, IP address, the pages you view, the referring page and your browsing behaviour within the site. Google LLC is located in the United States and may store and process this data there.

We apply Google Consent Mode. Before you accept, consent signals are set to denied, so no measurement or advertising storage is used. On acceptance we grant analytics storage only — advertising storage stays denied.

Analytics data is retained for up to 14 months from collection.

You can also install Google's own opt-out browser add-on: https://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout

Changes

We may update this policy to reflect changes in the technologies we use. The current version is always posted on this page, and if the cookies we set change materially we will ask for your choice again.
