AQUA DESIGN AMANO Private Policy
The Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd.' Customer Privacy Policy has been developed as
an extension of our commitment to combine the finest quality products and
services with the highest level of integrity in dealing with our customers. The
Policy guides how we collect, store and use information about customers and
prospects, and it will be periodically assessed against new technologies,
business practices and our customers' changing needs.
The Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd. may, from time to time, modify this
Customer Privacy Policy to reflect legal, technological and other developments.
In that event, the changes will appear at this location.
Please note that privacy notices advising customers and prospects as to
the specific uses that are being made of their Personally-Identifiable
Information by specific business units within The Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd.
may also be modified from time to time to reflect changes in business
practices. In this event, those changes will appear in the relevant privacy
notices.
The Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd. is committed to using all reasonable
efforts to abide by the following Policy statement:
1.
Collection.
Personally-Identifiable Information will only be collected to the extent that
The Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd. deems reasonably necessary to serve online

Personally-Identifiable Information is collected) as to the uses the business
unit may make of the Personally-Identifiable Information collected from them.
3.
Choice: Opt Out for External Distribution of Personally-Identifiable
Information.
Customers and prospects will be given the opportunity to refuse permission for

include certain limited distributions such as sharing Personally-Identifiable
Information with an entity working on behalf of The Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd.
to serve our customers; transfer of Personally-Identifiable Information in
conjunction with the sale or similar transfer of a business unit; or the disclosure
of Personally-Identifiable Information in connection with legal proceedings,
investigations of crimes or other wrongdoing. However, sharing
Personally-Identifiable Information with an entity working on behalf of The
Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd. or transferring Personally-Identifiable Information
in conjunction with the sale or similar transfer of a business unit is
considered an Onward Transfer and will be handled as described below.)

Appropriate safeguards will be implemented in an effort to ensure the security,
integrity and privacy of Personally-Identifiable Information about our
customers and prospects.
5.
Access: Review and correction. Procedures have been developed through which
customers and prospects can, upon request, review and correct the
Personally-Identifiable Information that has been collected from them by The
Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd.. These procedures may not,
however, compromise the security, integrity and privacy of either The Aqua
Design Amano Co., Ltd.' own proprietary databases or databases licensed from
third party companies.
6.
Sensitive Data. The collection and use of Sensitive Data carries with it special
obligations and responsibilities in order to maintain the data's security,
integrity and privacy. Sensitive Data will not be rented or otherwise made
available for External Distribution outside The Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd.
(although it may be made available through Onward Transfer as described below).
Customers and prospects will be given the opportunity to refuse permission for
their Sensitive Data to be distributed outside of the business unit that
collected the Sensitive Data through use of an Opt Out mechanism for Internal
Distribution within The Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd..
7.
Onward Transfer. Whenever The Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd. permits a third party outside of
The Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd. to access Personally-Identifiable Information
through either External Distribution or Onward Transfer, commercially
appropriate procedures will be followed to help ensure that the Information is
used only for authorized purposes and by authorized persons in a manner
consistent with the choices customers and prospects have made under this
Policy, and that the security, integrity and privacy of the information is
maintained. Please note that our Web sites may contain links to other Web Sites

Co., Ltd. will employ commercially appropriate procedures to help ensure that
your information is only used for authorized purposes as described above, The
Aqua Design Amano Co., Ltd. cannot make any guarantees with respect to the
actions or policies of such third parties.
