1. Scope of This Privacy Policy

This Privacy Policy applies to all individuals who access our website, purchase our products, contact us, or otherwise interact with us in any manner, whether online or offline. This Privacy Policy is intended to apply globally. However, because privacy and data protection laws may vary by country, region, or jurisdiction, additional rights, obligations, or requirements may apply depending on where a user is located. Nothing in this Privacy Policy is intended to limit any rights granted to individuals under mandatory applicable law.
2. Definition of Personal Information
For the purposes of this Privacy Policy, Personal Information means any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. Such information includes, but is not limited to, a person’s name, address, telephone number, email address, date of birth, payment related details, order history, online identifiers, Internet Protocol address, device information, location related information, any other information that can directly or indirectly identify a specific individual. Where applicable law distinguishes between personal information, personal data, sensitive personal information, or similar legal concepts, such terms shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with the relevant law to the extent required.
3. Categories of Personal Information We Collect
The Company may collect various categories of Personal Information depending on the nature of the interaction between the user and the Company. Such information may include identifying information such as name, billing address, shipping address, telephone number, and email address. It may also include transactional information such as order details, purchase history, payment status, product selection, and customer service records. In addition, the Company may collect technical and usage related information such as IP address, browser type, operating system, device identifiers, access times, pages viewed, referring website addresses, and browsing activity on our website.

Where necessary for lawful business purposes, we may also collect information voluntarily submitted by users through inquiry forms, email correspondence, promotional campaign participation, or other direct communications.
4. Methods of Collection
The Company collects Personal Information through several methods. First, we collect information directly from users when they place an order, submit an inquiry, sign up for communications, or otherwise provide information to us voluntarily. Second, we collect certain information automatically when users access or interact with our website, including information gathered through cookies and similar tracking technologies. Third, we may obtain information from third party service providers and business partners, including payment processors, website hosting providers, logistics and shipping providers, and advertising platforms, when such information is necessary to operate our services or where such collection is otherwise permitted by applicable law. The Company seeks to limit collection to information that is reasonably necessary for legitimate business and legal purposes.
5. Purposes of Use
The Company uses Personal Information for a range of purposes necessary for the operation, management, and improvement of its business and services. These purposes include processing and fulfilling orders, arranging shipment and delivery, processing payments, communicating with users regarding their purchases or inquiries, and providing customer support. Personal Information may also be used to manage customer relationships, maintain internal records, verify transactions, detect and prevent unauthorized or improper activity, and ensure the safety, stability, and security of our website and services. In addition, the Company may use Personal Information to improve its products, services, website functionality, and overall customer experience through internal analysis, research, and performance evaluation. Where permitted by law, Personal Information may also be used for marketing, advertising, and promotional communications, including personalized advertising and campaign optimization.
6. Legal Basis for Processing
Where the processing of Personal Information is subject to laws that require a legal basis, including the General Data Protection Regulation of the European Union, the Company processes Personal Information only where an appropriate legal basis exists. Such legal bases may include the necessity of processing for the performance of a contract with the user, compliance with a legal obligation to which the Company is subject, the legitimate interests pursued by the Company or a third party, and the consent of the user where consent is required under applicable law. The Company will determine and apply the appropriate legal basis depending on the nature of the Personal Information, the purpose of processing, and the legal requirements of the relevant jurisdiction.
7. Purposes of Use of cookies
Our website uses cookies and similar tracking technologies to improve the information and services we provide, improve website usability, and otherwise create a better website. Information collected through cookies may include IP addresses, device identifiers, and browsing history, which may constitute personal information under applicable laws.
Our website uses cookies for the following purposes,
-

The Company may disclose Personal Information to third parties where such disclosure is necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Policy or where otherwise permitted or required by law. Such recipients may include website hosting providers, payment service providers, logistics and shipping companies, cloud service providers, and advertising or marketing platforms. For example, the Company may disclose necessary information to Wix for website operation, Stripe for payment processing, shipping providers for delivery, and Meta for advertising related activities. The Company may also disclose Personal Information to legal, regulatory, judicial, or governmental authorities when required to do so by applicable law, regulation, court order, or other legally binding request. In all such cases, the Company takes reasonable steps to ensure that disclosed Personal Information is handled appropriately and only to the extent necessary for the relevant purpose.
9. International Transfer of Personal Information
Because the Company operates in an international business environment and uses service providers that may operate in multiple jurisdictions, Personal Information may be transferred to, stored in, or processed in countries outside the user’s country or region of residence, including Japan. The data protection laws in such countries may differ from those of the user’s jurisdiction and may not provide the same level of legal protection.
Where required under applicable law, the Company will implement appropriate safeguards for international transfers of Personal Information. Such safeguards may include, where applicable, reliance on adequacy decisions, the execution of standard contractual clauses, and the implementation of organizational, technical, and contractual measures. These measures may include access control, data encryption, system monitoring, internal data handling policies, and ensuring that third party service providers are subject to appropriate data protection obligations.
The Company will ensure that any international transfers of Personal Information are carried out in compliance with applicable data protection laws and that appropriate safeguards are in place to protect such information.
10. Retention of Personal Information
The Company retains Personal Information only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes[健齋1] for which it was collected.
-
Transaction and purchase records: Seven (7) years from completion of the transaction, in accordance with applicable Japanese tax and corporate law obligations.
-
Customer account information: For the duration of the active account, plus two (2) years thereafter.
-
Inquiry and customer support records: Three (3) years from the date of resolution.
-
Marketing-related Personal Information: Until the withdrawal of consent or two (2) years from the last interaction, whichever occurs earlier.
-
Cookie-based information: In accordance with the expiration period of each cookie (maximum thirteen (13) months).
The Company may retain Personal Information beyond these periods where required to comply with legal obligations, resolve disputes, defend legal claims, or pursue legitimate business interests. When Personal Information is no longer required, the Company will delete, anonymize, or otherwise securely dispose of it.
11. Security Measures
The Company implements appropriate organizational, physical, human, and technical security measures to protect Personal Information against unauthorized access, use, disclosure, alteration, loss, or destruction. Such measures may include access controls, password protections, internal handling rules, staff education, system monitoring, security software, log management, and encryption or similar safeguards where appropriate. The Company also seeks to ensure that service providers handling Personal Information on its behalf maintain suitable security measures. However, despite the Company’s efforts to protect Personal Information, no method of transmission over the Internet, no electronic storage system, and no security measure can be guaranteed to be completely secure. Accordingly, the Company cannot guarantee absolute security of Personal Information in all circumstances. In the event of a Personal Information breach, the Company will, in accordance with applicable law, notify the relevant supervisory authority without undue delay and, where feasible, within seventy-two (72) hours of becoming aware of the breach (where the GDPR applies). Where the breach is likely to result in a high risk to the rights and freedoms of data subjects, the Company will also notify the affected data subjects without undue delay.
12. Rights of Users
Depending on the jurisdiction in which a user is located and the laws applicable to the processing of that user’s Personal Information, the user may have certain rights in relation to such information. These rights may include the right to request access to Personal Information held by the Company, the right to request correction or deletion of inaccurate or unnecessary Personal Information, the right to request restriction of processing, the right to object to certain types of processing, the right to request transfer of Personal Information in a portable format where applicable, and the right to withdraw consent where processing is based on consent. The Company will review and respond to such requests in accordance with applicable law, subject to any lawful limitations, exceptions, or verification requirements.
13. Children’s Personal Information
The Company does not knowingly collect Personal Information directly from children under the age of 16 without legally valid parental or guardian consent where such consent is required. Our website and services are not intended for direct use by young children, and the Company does not intentionally design its services to solicit information from children who are below the applicable legal age threshold. If the Company becomes aware that Personal Information has been collected from a child without appropriate authorization, it will take reasonable steps to delete that information as soon as practicable, unless retention is required by law.
14. Third Party Websites and Services
Our website may contain links to third party websites, platforms, applications, or services that are not owned, operated, or controlled by the Company. This Privacy Policy does not apply to the privacy practices of such third parties. The Company is not responsible for the content, security, or privacy practices of any external websites or services. Users who access such third party websites or services are encouraged to review the privacy policies and terms applicable to those third parties before providing any personal information or engaging in any transaction.
15. Changes to This Privacy Policy
The Company may amend, revise, supplement, or otherwise update this Privacy Policy from time to time in order to reflect changes in applicable laws, regulatory guidance, business operations, service content, technologies, or data handling practices. When changes are made, the updated version of this Privacy Policy will be posted on the relevant website together with the revised Last Updated date. Where required by applicable law, the Company will provide additional notice or obtain consent in relation to material changes. The Company intends to review this Privacy Policy periodically and at least once each year in order to maintain its appropriateness and accuracy.
16. Global Application and Legal Variations
This Privacy Policy is intended to provide a general framework for the Company’s handling of Personal Information on a global basis. However, privacy, consumer protection, electronic communications, and data protection laws differ across jurisdictions, and certain provisions of this Privacy Policy may need to be interpreted or supplemented considering those legal requirements. While the Company makes reasonable efforts to keep this Privacy Policy current and appropriate, it does not represent or warrant that this Privacy Policy will always fully satisfy every legal requirement in every jurisdiction at all times. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company disclaims liability for claims, losses, or damages arising solely from differences in local legal requirements or reliance on jurisdiction specific interpretations not expressly stated in this Privacy Policy. Nothing in this section shall exclude or limit any rights that users may have under mandatory law.
17. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
This Privacy Policy, and any dispute, claim, or matter arising out of or in connection with this Privacy Policy or the Company’s handling of Personal Information, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Japan, without regard to conflict of laws principles. Any legal proceedings relating to this Privacy Policy shall be brought exclusively before the Tokyo District Court as the court of first instance. However, if mandatory laws of the user’s country or region of residence provide for different rights, remedies, or forum protections that cannot be waived, those mandatory provisions shall apply to the extent required by law.
18. Language
In the event of any discrepancy, inconsistency, or conflict between the English version and any translated version, the English version shall prevail and control, except to the extent that applicable mandatory law requires a different language version to take precedence.
19. Severability
If any provision of this Privacy Policy is held by a court or other competent authority to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable under applicable law, that provision shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, or if such modification is not possible, it shall be deemed severed from this Privacy Policy. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall remain in full force and effect.
