We recognize the importance of protecting personal information, have established a policy for its protection, and strive to ensure its appropriate management.
To ensure the collection and use of personal information are handled under basic principles, managed effectively, and strictly maintained through education, training, and audits, we stipulate and implement the following guidelines.
Article 1 (Personal Information)
"Personal Information" refers to "personal information" as defined in the Act on the Protection of Personal Information (Act No. 57 of 2003; hereinafter referred to as the "APPI"). It means information relating to a living
individual that can identify a specific individual by name, date of birth, or other description contained in such information, or that contains an individual identification code.
Article 2 (Collection and Use of Personal Information)
We collect and use personal information to the extent necessary for the following purposes.
In the event that we use personal information beyond the scope of the following purposes, we shall obtain the prior consent of the individual concerned through appropriate means.
- Responding to inquiries
- Contacting applicants regarding interview schedules and selection results for job recruitment
- Analyzing collected information, such as browsing and purchase histories, to send emails with news on new features, updates, campaigns, and recommendations for new products and services tailored to each user
- Contacting users as necessary, including notifications regarding service maintenance
- Identifying users who violate the terms of use or attempt to use the services for fraudulent or improper purposes, and refusing their further use of the services
Changes to the purposes of use of personal information shall be made only when such changes are reasonably deemed to be relevant to the original purposes.
When a change to the purposes of use is made, the company shall notify users of the modified purposes through prescribed methods and publish them on this website.
Article 3 (Management and Protection of Personal Information)
Personal information shall be strictly managed, and we will not disclose or provide personal data to any third party without the consent of the individual concerned, except in the cases listed below. Furthermore, taking
safety into consideration, we will implement preventative and corrective measures against risks such as unauthorized access to personal information, as well as its loss, destruction, falsification, and leakage.
- Cases where it is necessary for the protection of a person’s life, body, or property, and it is difficult to obtain the consent of the individual concerned
- Cases where it is particularly necessary for improving public health or promoting the sound growth of children, and it is difficult to obtain the consent of the individual concerned
- Cases where it is necessary to cooperate with a national agency, a local government, or an entity entrusted by either in executing the affairs prescribed by laws and regulations, and obtaining the consent of the
individual concerned is likely to impede the execution of such affairs
- Cases where all or part of the handling of personal information is entrusted within the scope necessary to achieve the purpose of use, in order to ensure the smooth execution of operations
- Cases in which personal information is provided in association with the succession of business due to a merger or other ground
- Other cases permitted under laws and regulations
Article 4 (Joint Use)
Except in cases exceeding the scope necessary to achieve the purpose of use, or as specified in items (1) through (6) of the preceding paragraph, the Company shall not provide or entrust personal data to any third party
without obtaining the prior consent of the individual concerned.
Article 5 (Disclosure of Personal Information)
When a user requests the disclosure, correction, or suspension of use of their personal information pursuant to the provisions of the Personal Information Protection Act, the Company shall, after confirming that the
request is made by the user themselves, disclose such information to the user within a reasonable period (if such personal information does not exist, the user will be notified accordingly). However, this shall not apply in cases where
the Company is not obligated to perform disclosure, correction, or suspension of use under the Personal Information Protection Act or other laws and regulations.
Article 6 (Procedures for Changes to the Privacy Policy)
The Company shall review the contents of this Policy as appropriate and strive to improve them. The contents of this Policy may be changed except for matters otherwise provided by laws and regulations or in this Policy.
The changed Privacy Policy shall take effect from the time it is notified to users by methods prescribed by the Company or published on the Company’s website.
