Privacy Policy

“Personal information” shall refer to the “personal information” identified in the Act on the Protection of Personal Information. This refers to information regarding individual living persons, including name, date of birth, address, telephone number, contact details and other descriptors able to identify specific individuals, as well as information able to identify specific individuals (personal identification information) through relevant standalone information such as health insurance policy numbers.

In order to maintain customers’ personal information in an accurate and up-to-date form and prevent unauthorized access, loss, damage, falsification or leakage of the personal information, the Association will take necessary measures including security system maintenance, management structure development and thorough staff training, implementing safety measures and conducting strict personal information management.

The Association’s purposes of personal information collection and usage are as described below.

However, for personal information subject to disclosure, purposes of usage correspond to (c)~(d) from the abovementioned.

The Association shall alter the purpose of personal information usage only in the event that the altered purpose can reasonably be considered appropriately relevant to the original purpose of usage.
In the event that the purpose of usage has been altered, notification regarding the altered purpose shall be made to the customer by a method prescribed by the company, or shall be announced on the website.

The content of this Policy is subject to change without notification to the customer, except for items otherwise stipulated by laws and ordinances or in this Policy.
Unless otherwise stipulated separately by the Association, the updated Privacy Policy shall take effect from the time of its posting on the website.

The Association shall not provide personal information that has been acquired to third parties without customers’ prior agreement unless permitted by the Act on the Protection of Personal Information or other laws and ordinances.

The handling of personal information that has been acquired shall not be outsourced in whole or in part.

Please refer to the “Contact” mentioned below for the point of contact responding to requests regarding disclosure, etc.

In the event that the Association has received a request from the individual for the discontinuation of usage or deletion of personal information (hereinafter referred to as “discontinuation of usage, etc.”) on the grounds that its usage exceeds the original purpose of usage or that it has been acquired by improper means, necessary investigations will be carried out.
In the event that it is deemed necessary to act in accordance with such request on the basis of the investigation mentioned in the preceding sentence, discontinuation of usage, etc. of the relevant personal information will be implemented.
