the following applies:

When consent of the relevant person is obtained |

Disclosure, Correction and Discontinuation of
Use of Entered Contents
At the request of the relevant person, the NRI Group shall disclose
personal data to the person as long as proper implementation of

Website Security
SSL data encryption technology is used as a security measure to
prevent interception on the network when personal data is provided
on the website.
 |
SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) is a common protocol used as a
security measure for communication on the website. It prevents
the interception of data by encrypting it before it is sent over
the Internet. |
Although the NRI Group shall make utmost efforts in the management
of personal data, we are unable to fully guarantee the secrecy of
personal data because of the nature of the Internet and e-mail.
Due consideration should be given to this point in the use of websites
and e-mail.
Privacy Policy for Each Product and Service
In some cases, a privacy policy (such as the purposes of the use
of personal data, third-party disclosure, security and contact information)
is stipulated for each product, service, etc., at websites for such
products and services, and in e-mail messages and various notifications.
If provisions that are different from those of this privacy policy
and/or special provisions are included, the privacy policy stipulated
for each product or service shall take precedence over this privacy
policy.
Updates
This privacy policy is subject to change without prior notice due
to the amendment of applicable laws and/or ordinances, changes in
the policies of the NRI Group, etc
