In this Privacy Policy, "Personal Information" refers to any information relating to an identified or identifiable natural person. This includes, but is not limited to, your name, company name, email address, and online identifiers such as IP addresses or cookie data collected through your interaction with our website.

When you register to download specific technical materials (such as white papers or CAD data) or submit an inquiry, we collect the personal information you voluntarily provide.

We process your information based on your consent for marketing and non-essential cookies, when necessary to perform a contract or fulfill your request, and to support our legitimate business interests in providing and improving our services.

To efficiently respond to your technical inquiries and support our global operations, we may share your information with our overseas subsidiaries and trusted third-party service providers (such as HubSpot). Your personal information may be transferred to, and processed in, countries outside of your residence, including Japan, the European Economic Area (EEA), and the United States.
