Personal Information
Personal information consists of any information related to an individual user, including name, street address, phone number, e-mail, school name, etc., that can be used to distinguish said user. In addition, even if a user cannot be identified by certain information on its own, if that information can be readily matched to other existing information and result in identification of the individual user, then that too is included as personal information.
Use of Personal Information
Use of personal information is as follows. It will never be used for anything beyond the stated purpose.
These may include surveys, inquiries such as recruitment data, accepting applicants and contacting successful candidates, shipment of gifts;

After specifying a destination and informational content, it will only be provided in cases where the user’s consent has been obtained. However, in the following cases, to the extent that it is not contrary to any relevant laws and regulations, a user’s personal information may be provided without a user’s consent.

These cases include instances where information is necessary in order to improve public health or promote the healthy development of children and obtaining the consent of the user in question is difficult;
if cooperation with national agencies, local governments, or entrusted individuals is required for them to carry out their legally stipulated duties and obtaining consent from the user in question would risk hindering the performance of their office;

if the company is involved in a merger, etc. and personal information is inherited.
Disclaimer about Third Party Offers

Changes in Personal Information
Other than making an inquiry with regards to this site, through the services provided users may view their registered personal information at any time to correct, delete, or suspend its use.
In the Event that Users Cannot Apply Changes
Generally speaking, the user in question is the only one who can disclose, correct, delete, and suspend use of registered personal information, along with preventing distribution of that information to any third parties. However, if the user or a third party is at risk of harm to body, property, or other rights and interests, if there is concern that a significant obstacle to the proper implementation of the services provided by the site is posed, or if there is a violation of other laws and regulations, disclosure will not be accepted. Additionally, in a case where an individual wishes to suspend the use of personal information or prevent its provision to a third part (referred to below as “suspension of use”) but it would require significant expenses or present other difficulties, alternatives measures may prove necessary in order to protect the rights and interests of the user, rather than a suspension of use.

However, if someone other than the actual user acquires this information from somewhere other than this site and uses it, our company cannot be held accountable.
