Privacy Policy

At www.www.shophakuhodousa.com, your privacy is our priority. We are committed to protecting your information at all times, in all situations. The information we collect about you when you become a member is used only to process your orders and to provide a more personalized experience on our site.

Secure Checkout
Our site uses a 256 bit encrypted SSL to increase the security of our customer’s information. Hakuhodo USA can not guarantee complete security in regards to stored information on the customer's end. However, we have installed and applied the encryption necessary to prevent stolen information.

How Do We Use the Information We Collect?
When you become a Hakuhodo USA member, we ask you to fill out a form that requests your name, address and e-mail address as well as some demographic information such as gender and date of birth. Hakuhodo USA will NOT share data with partners or any third party to perform statistical analysis.
Your name and address information is used solely to process orders unless your prior consent is given. Without your consent, this information will NEVER be sold, given, rented or traded to others for purposes other than order fulfillment.
Your demographic information (gender, date of birth, etc.) will be used for several security purposes, to ensure you are who you say you are and you are paying with your credit cards and not someone using your stolen payment information.

Our Use of Log Files

We utilize this information to conduct site performance evaluations to see where visitors are coming from and to keep track of click-stream data (the screens our users visit on our site). This data helps us to determine what content our members find most appealing so that we can maximize your enjoyment of the site. Log files are not tied to personally identifiable information. All the data that we receive and process remain anonymous.

Site Security
All Hakuhodo USA employees take your personal information very seriously. All employees are trained in and fully comply with our security policies. Access to member personal information is limited to key management personnel and our member services department. The information is ID and password protected and our web security is reviewed on a monthly basis. Our website and web systems utilize 256 bit encryption SSL.

Supplementation
We may correct or supplement your address information with standardized postal representation in order to ensure that your orders are delivered. We do this to ensure that our members receive the order and to lower costs associated with our programs.
