(2) Purpose of Use of Personal Information

Personal information registered with Career-tasu will be used by Career-tasu only for the following purposes and will not be used for any other purposes:
1: Provision of personal information to educational institutions such as universities, colleges and graduate schools, and qualification/examination organizations (the "User Organization(s)") that accept applications through the Service; or
2: Registration of information in the database to save the user from having to enter the same information the next time the Service is used.

(3) Provision of Personal Information to User Organizations

Registered personal information will be provided to the User Organizations that use the Service to accept applications, in a manner that is sufficiently confidential, such as by using encrypted internet storage services. The items of personal information to be provided are as follows:

- Name
- Zip code
- Address
- Phone number
- Date of birth
- Gender
- E-mail address
- Information necessary for application to a User Organization

The personal information provided to the User Organizations will be managed by each such organization for the purposes of communicating with the applicants for the provision of information in relation to acceptance of applications.
The handling of personal information managed by each User Organization is governed by the privacy policy and other rules of each User Organization.
User Organizations that use the Service to accept applications are prohibited from using personal information obtained through the Service for any purpose other than to provide information to the applicants.

(4) In order to improve the convenience of users, a part of the handling of personal information will be outsourced within the scope necessary to achieve the purpose of use of the Service.

3. Consequences of Failure to Provide Personal Information

Some services may not be available if you do not provide the required information when applying for or submitting an application to a User Organization using the Service.

4. Disclosure of Personal Information to Third Parties without Consent

As a general rule, we do not disclose registered personal information to third parties without the consent of the user. In the event that personal information is to be provided to a third party other than the User Organizations, the information will be disclosed only after specifying the recipient and the content of the information to be provided and obtaining the user's consent.

However, we may disclose the registration information without the user's consent in the following cases:

(1) When required by laws and regulations;
(2) When it is necessary for the protection of the life, body, or property of a person and it is difficult to obtain the consent of the individual concerned;
(3) When the provision of personal information is particularly necessary for improving public health or promoting the sound growth of children and in which it is difficult to obtain the consent of the individual concerned; or
(4) When it is necessary to cooperate with a national agency, a local government, or an individual or entity entrusted by a national agency or local government to execute affairs prescribed by laws and regulations, and in which obtaining the consent of the individual concerned is likely to impede the execution of the affairs concerned.

5. Scope of Third Parties

In either of the following cases, the person to whom such personal information is provided will not be considered a third party for the purpose of application of the provisions of this Article:

(1) When all or part of the handling of personal information is outsourced by Career-tasu within the scope necessary to achieve the purpose of use; or
(2) When personal information is succeeded as a result of a merger or any other business succession of or by Career-tasu.

6. Disclaimer

In either of the following cases, Career-tasu will not be held liable for the acquisition of personal information by third parties:

(1) When the user himself/herself reveals personal information to a specific company through the functions of the Service or by other means; or
(2) In the event that a user is unexpectedly identified based on registered information other than personal identification information.
