Protection Policy>

JAPAN and usage

site on the World
Wide Web. Specifically,
this information
includes the name,
gender, age, address,
e-mail address,
service access and
other data records,
and identification
numbers and/or symbols
issued by CEATEC
JAPAN to individuals.
Also included is
information that,
through comparisons
with other data,

The Committee
is taking the
following steps
in accordance
with its view
that appropriate
usage and protection
of this information
is the social
responsibility
of CEATEC JAPAN.
|
<Purpose of
Collecting and Usage
of Information>
The Committee gathers
personal information
from users with
the purpose of enhancing
and improving CEATEC
JAPAN web site services,
registering visitors
prior to and during
the staging of the
exhibition, and
accepting reservations
to attend the CEATEC
JAPAN Conference
and other special
programs. The Committee
also collects personal
information for
use in user questionnaires
and requests for
the sending of reference
materials.
Information gathering
activities are
also used to provide
registered visitors
to CEATEC JAPAN
with information
on promotions,
and the products
and services of
companies related
to CEATEC JAPAN.
The Committee
uses personal
information only
for the above
purposes.
|
<Providing
Information to Third
Parties>
No personal information
collected through
the CEATEC JAPAN
web site will be
provided to unrelated
third parties. However,
this information
may be provided
to partner organizations
that have established
their own information
protection systems
and signed a contract
of confidentiality
with the Committee.
Such companies may
use this information
in the pursuit of
the aforementioned
activities on a
proxy basis.
Visitors to CEATEC
JAPAN are issued
passes with personalized
barcodes. These
barcodes are read
on entering the
exhibition and
Conference programs,
and at the booths
of exhibiting
companies and
organizations
(exhibitors).
From this point,
information that
might be considered
personal in nature
is shared between
the Committee
and the exhibitor.
Visitors are requested
to understand
that information
from exhibitors
might be sent
directly to them
via e-mail or
the posts after
CEATEC JAPAN concludes.
In addition,
user data from
this web site
and the CEATEC
JAPAN exhibition
site is sometimes
provided to third
parties in a format
that prevents
individual identification.
Such information
is not considered
personal in nature.

In terms of the
CEATEC JAPAN web
site, “cookies”

to a user’s
computer from the
Committee’s
server when the
user accesses the
CEATEC JAPAN web
site. This data,
which includes a
record of previous
accesses to the
site by the user,
is sent back from
the user’s
computer at each
access.
These cookies
are used to provide
services customized
for individual
users and to count
the total number
of accesses by
all users to the
site.
IP addresses,
which are numerical
in format and
assigned to identify
the computers
of individual
users, are automatically
sent to the CEATEC
JAPAN web site
on access.
Computers cannot
access the Internet
without an IP
address. Individual
IP addresses are
collected to collate
data on usage
of the web site
and monitor trends
in site usage,
but these addresses
are not used in
any way that might
lead to the identification
of individual

are infringed
upon or interfered
with by a user(s),
or the potential
of such infringement
or interference
is suspected.

acknowledge that
they will be ineligible
to take advantage
of certain services.
Users may request
the Committee
to cease the transmission
of their personal

the provision
of related services.
If a user requests
that registration
be cancelled,
his or her personal

be deleted from
the CEATEC JAPAN

circumstances,
the Committee
will immediately
dispatch the request
to and seek the
same measures
from exhibitors,
as well.

<Security>
Ensuring the security

provided by users
is an important
issue for the Committee
and the CEATEC JAPAN
web site. Extensive
measures have been
taken to protect
personal information
on this web site

access, disclosure,
tampering and destruction.
However, this protection
does not extend

lines between users’

reason, users are
urged to take all
appropriate measures
to manage the security
of personal information
at their sites.
