プライバシーポリシー

Soca in Japan, LLC operates www.socainjapan.com (the "Site") as an online commerce platform, and provides related services (collectively, the "Service"). This Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, and protect your personally-identifiable information ("Personal Information"). By using the Service or submitting Personal Information, you consent to the collection, storage, processing, and transfer of information as described in this policy and our Terms of Use.

1. Information we collect

Information you provide directly

Registration information. When creating or reconfiguring an account, you provide Personal Information including your name, phone number, mailing address, password, and email address.

Communications. We may send you Service-related emails (account verification, updates, technical and security notices) and collect these communications. You cannot opt out of Service-related emails.

Information gathered from use of the Service

Automatically collected information. We collect non-identifying data including your IP address, device IDs and type, Wi-Fi connection information, geo-location, product-search history, browser type, operating system, access dates/times, pages visited, and referring website.

Analytics. Third-party analytics tools measure traffic, usage trends, and non-personal information, combined across users to prevent individual identification.

Metadata. Technical data describing how, when, and by whom content was collected and formatted.

Links. We track how you interact with links across the Service, including email notifications and third-party services, to improve the Service and share aggregate click statistics.

Mobile device identifiers. We may access, collect, monitor, or store device identifiers — small data files that uniquely identify your device — to deliver information about browsing and usage habits and to help provide reports or personalised content and ads.

Log data. Our servers automatically record information including IP address, browser type, operating system, referring web page, pages visited, location, mobile carrier, device and application IDs, search terms, and cookie information.

How we store your information

We provide the Service from within the United States and store currently-collected Personal Information on U.S. servers, though we may store information on servers outside the U.S. in the future.

2. How we use your information

We share Personal Information only in limited circumstances:

• With your consent — with outside companies, organisations, or individuals when you consent.
• Affiliates — with Soca in Japan affiliates as necessary to provide the Service.
• Advertisers — we do not currently permit advertising but may in the future. If ads are displayed, advertisers and ad networks may collect information about devices, activities, and location to display targeted ads. We will not provide personally-identifiable information (name or email) to advertisers.
• Service providers — third parties who facilitate the Service (maintenance, analysis, audit, marketing, development) with limited access and an obligation not to disclose or use information for other purposes.
• Required by law — in response to legal requests (search warrant, court order, subpoena) or to detect, prevent, and address fraud and illegal activity, and to protect ourselves, our users, and others.
• Change of control — if we sell or transfer part or all of Soca in Japan or its assets (merger, acquisition, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation), Personal Information such as name and email may be transferred.
• Non-personal information — aggregated non-personal information may be shared publicly to show trends about general Service usage.
