This Privacy Policy explains how Comparely handles personal data in connection with its website and personal development course content. It describes the types of information we collect, how we use it, when we share it, and the choices and rights available to users in Japan and elsewhere, as applicable.
This summary highlights how to navigate the information provided in this policy.
We may collect identifiers such as name or contact details, account and profile information, course preferences, inquiry content, payment-related records where applicable, device and browser information, usage data, and other information you choose to provide. We also process limited technical data needed to operate, secure, and improve the site.
We collect personal data directly from you when you submit forms, register interest, communicate with us, or use course features. We also receive data automatically through logs, cookies, and similar technologies, and from third parties that support hosting, analytics, payment processing, or other operational functions.
We may use session cookies, persistent cookies, and similar technologies. These may support site operation, remember settings, measure traffic and performance, and help us understand how visitors use the site. Some cookies are necessary for basic functionality, while others are used only where permitted by your settings or browser configuration.
You can usually manage cookies through your browser settings and, where available, through on-site preference controls. Blocking some cookies may affect site functionality, saved preferences, or access to certain features. We do not rely on cookie controls to override settings required for core operation or security.
We use personal data to operate the site, provide course information and related services, respond to inquiries, manage accounts or registrations, process transactions where applicable, maintain security, prevent abuse, analyze performance, improve content and functionality, and comply with legal obligations. We may also use data to communicate administrative notices and service updates.
We may share personal data with hosting, analytics, payment, communication, security, and other service providers that support our operations. We may also share information with professional advisers or business partners where needed to deliver services, manage risk, or complete transactions. These parties are expected to handle data under appropriate confidentiality and use limitations.
We may disclose personal data when required to comply with legal obligations, respond to lawful requests, enforce our terms, protect the rights, safety, or property of users or others, or investigate suspected misuse, fraud, or security incidents.
Subject to applicable law, you may request access to, correction of, deletion of, or restriction on certain personal data, and you may object to some processing activities. Where processing is based on consent, you may withdraw consent for future processing. Some requests may be limited if we must retain information for legal, security, or operational reasons.
To make a privacy request, use the contact details in this policy and describe the information or action you are requesting. We may ask for reasonable verification details before responding. If we cannot fully honor a request, we will explain the reason to the extent permitted by law.
We keep personal data only for as long as needed for the purposes described in this policy, to meet legal or accounting obligations, to resolve disputes, and to maintain records necessary for security and service administration. When data is no longer needed, we delete it or anonymize it where feasible.
If we make material changes, we will update the policy text on the site and may provide additional notice where appropriate. The revised version will apply from its stated effective date unless a different notice period is required by law.
