1. Definition of Personal Data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

\u201cPersonal data\u201d means any information related to an identified or identifiable natural person. An \u201cidentifiable natural person\u201d is a person who can be identified, directly or indirectly, for example through identifiers such as a name, identification number, location data, or online identifier, or through factors specific to the individual\u2019s physical, physiological, genetic, mental, economic, cultural, or social identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Cross-Border Transfer of Personal Data<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Accordingly, Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) or other standard data protection clauses are not required for personal data transfers from the EEA to Japan. However, at a customer\u2019s request, the Company may enter into such clauses before accepting such transfers. The Company handles personal data transferred to it in accordance with applicable data processing agreements and Japan\u2019s Act on the Protection of Personal Information, including the Supplementary Rules applicable to personal data transferred from the EEA under the adequacy decision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
