2. Information collected
Through enquiries and business correspondence we receive names, company or role, contact details, preferred timing or language, enquiry content and supplied materials.

Delivery and security infrastructure may process IP addresses, request times, pages accessed and device or browser information.

3. Purposes of use
We use personal information to: respond and arrange consultations; clarify requirements and prepare proposals; deliver agreed services and coordinate progress; administer contracts, billing and accounting; handle complaints and rights requests; prevent misuse and operate securely; and meet legal obligations. Use beyond these purposes is subject to procedures required by law.

5. International handling
International projects or external services may involve handling outside Japan. Where this constitutes a transfer to a third party abroad, we follow applicable requirements, including information about the destination and safeguards and obtaining consent, or verifying and maintaining an equivalent protection framework as applicable. Publication of this policy alone is not treated as consent to an international transfer.
6. Safeguards and retention
We work to prevent leakage, loss and damage by limiting personnel and access, managing credentials, protecting devices and documents, informing personnel and reviewing providers. We assess the relevant local environment for overseas handling. Information is retained for the period needed for its purpose and legal retention duties, then appropriately deleted or disposed of. Further details of safeguards are available through our privacy contact.

- Access management
- Retention & disposal
7. Requests concerning your information
Contact info@kanoshima.net to request notification of purposes, access to retained personal data or third-party disclosure records, correction, addition, deletion, cessation of use or sharing, or other rights available under law. We verify identity as necessary and explain the process. If a request cannot legally be fulfilled, we explain why. Any applicable fee and its basis will be communicated in advance. The same contact handles complaints.

8. Cookies and external services
We currently embed no analytics or advertising tracking tags of our own. Delivery or access-authentication infrastructure may use cookies or similar technologies. Browser restrictions may affect functionality. Google Fonts is used for typography; font requests transmit IP addresses and request information from the browser to Google. See Google Fonts privacy information. Consultation forms use FormSubmit to forward your submitted information to our email address. Its documentation states that submissions are retained for 30 days. reCAPTCHA is used to help prevent spam. See the FormSubmit privacy policy. Received information is also handled by our email service.
9. Changes to this policy
We update this page when purposes, services or handling change and provide any required notice or consent process. A policy update does not replace consent required by law.
