10. Internet Security

(1) Secure Socket Layer

On its website, Yamato protects customers' personal information by means of a Secure Socket Layer (SSL).

Use of browsers which are security-compatible, such as Netscape Navigator and Microsoft Internet Explorer, automatically encrypts personal information such as names, addresses and telephone numbers input by customers before transmission. This prevents information transmitted from being stolen or altered even in the case of interception by a third party. Due to the nature of the Internet, Yamato is unable to fully guarantee the security of information during transmission. Customers are therefore reminded that they should also take appropriate action such as changing their password regularly and contacting Yamato immediately if they suspect unauthorized use of their personal information.

(2) System Protection

Yamato's online registration system is protected from outside access by a number of verification systems and firewalls.

Yamato also limits the number of its employees with access to personal information.
