Cookie Policy

This Cookie Policy describes how Vision Inc. located at SHINJUKU EASTSIDE SQUARE 8F 6-27-30 Shinjuku, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo 160-0022, Japan ("Vision","our", "we" or "us") uses cookies and similar technologies to collect and store information when you visit our website (https://www.vision-net.co.jp/). For additional information on our privacy practices, please visit our Privacy Policy.

When you visit our websites, open our e-mails, or view our services online, Vision or an authorized third party may send you a cookie. Cookies are small text files that may be placed on your device, i.e., in your browser directory. When a website is accessed, a cookie that is placed on a device will send information to the party that has placed the cookie. Cookies are extremely common and used on a number of websites. Each cookie will typically contain the name of the domain from which the cookie has come, the "lifetime" of the cookie, and a value (usually a unique number). For a more thorough explanation of what cookies are and how they operate, please visit www.aboutcookies.org.

Cookies allow a website owner to do useful things; for example, a cookie would permit a website owner to find out whether a computer (and probably its user) has visited the site previously. In general, the purpose of cookies is to improve the performance of the website and the user's experience in using that website. Cookies help to make a website work more efficient, enable extra functionality, and provide website owners with additional information about your visit to a website. Cookies also allow a website owner to track overall site usage and determine areas that users prefer. Cookies help make the user's visit to a website easier by recognizing the user upon return and providing a customized experience.

Our websites may place first party cookies and allow third parties to place cookies on your device. The difference between a first party cookie and a third party cookie relates to the control of the party who serves the cookie. First party cookies are cookies that are specific to the website that created them. Their use enables us to operate an efficient service and to track the patterns of behavior of visitors to the website. Third party cookies, on the other hand, are placed on your device by a third party (i.e., not by Vision). While we may allow third parties access to the website to place these cookies on users' devices, we do not retain control over the information supplied by the cookies, nor do we retain access to that data. This information is controlled wholly by that third party in accordance with their respective privacy policy.

Our websites may place session and persistent cookies on your device. Whereas the difference between a first party and third party cookie relates to the party controlling the initial placement of the cookie on your device, the difference between a session and a persistent cookie relates to the length of time the cookie lasts. Session cookies are cookies that typically last for as long as you are using your browser, or browser session. When you end your browser session, the cookie expires. Persistent cookies, as the name implies, are persistent and will last after you close your browser. This allows for quicker and often more convenient access to our website.

Information gathered through usage of a cookie is not linked to any direct personal identifiers (e.g., your name or e-mail address), unless you become a customer of Vision. Once you submit personal data on our websites (e.g., by signing up to receive information from us) we may link such personal data with cookies or other data that are associated with your visit(s) to our websites. Before we do so, we will notify you of this fact and seek your consent or grant you a right to object, if required by applicable law.

Our website uses Google Analytics 4, a web analytics service provided by Google LLC ("Google"), to measure page views and to understand how visitors reach and use our website (for example, traffic sources and the pages viewed). We use Google Analytics for statistical measurement only; we do not use targeted or advertising cookies on this website. Google Analytics sets the following cookies on your device:

• _ga — distinguishes visitors by assigning a randomly generated identifier (persistent, expires after 2 years)
• _ga_* — maintains session state for our measurement ID (persistent, expires after 2 years)

Information generated by these cookies about your use of our website (such as the identifier above, the pages you visit, the referring website, and browser and device information) is transmitted to and processed by Google on servers that may be located outside Japan. Your IP address is used by Google only to derive an approximate location and is not stored. For details on how Google collects and uses this data, please see How Google uses information from sites or apps that use our services and the Google Privacy Policy.

You can opt out of Google Analytics by installing the Google Analytics Opt-out Browser Add-on. You can also block or delete cookies at any time through your browser settings; disabling cookies will not prevent you from browsing our website.
