Contact form

Required: email, message. Optional: name, company or brand name, country of interest. Information stored together: the address of the page the inquiry was sent from, the time it was received, and the time you consented to the collection and use of personal information with the version of the consent text.

My website (dashboard)

We store the website address entered by the brand’s contact person in the optional “Website address” field of the application or registered in the dashboard, the social channel addresses (optional) registered in the dashboard, and the analysis results. The analysis results are the public information read from the registered website’s homepage and from the public product, brand introduction, shipping policy, sales channel and terms of use pages linked from that homepage (product names, selling prices and options, excerpts of introduction and policy text, language and social links, and so on), together with measured scores. We do not read login, payment or review-writing screens, or information about review authors, and we do not store the original pages. Search interest data entered by the operator (values obtained from the public Google Trends screens) is also shown in the brand report. All of this is information about the brand, and we do not intentionally collect personal information.

Information processed automatically

• To prevent automated submissions, we check browser signals when you apply, request a verification code or send an inquiry (Vercel BotID).
• We set one cookie to keep you logged in (30 days for brands; for administrators, until the browser is closed, up to 12 hours). It is deleted when you log out.
• We do not store IP addresses or browser information of visitors.
• Anonymous usage records for service improvement: to learn which steps of the application screen are viewed and completed, we record the step name, the action (view, next, back, submit, leave), the screen language, the application form version and the time, together with a random number. The random number is used only within a single browser tab (the browser deletes it when the tab is closed) and is not linked to any account, email, application content, IP address or browser information, so it cannot identify whose record it is. Application answers are not included.
• Temporary saving during application: the multiple-choice answers you select in the application form are saved temporarily only in your browser and are not sent to the Company. The brand name, contact person details, written answers and email are not saved. They are deleted when you complete the application or press “Start over”, and anything older than 7 days is deleted the next time you open the application screen.

2. Purposes of collection and use

We use it to understand demand for overseas expansion and to contact you with tailored proposals. Tailored proposals include reviewing matches between the brand and local clients overseas.

The business email is used for identity verification (verification codes), login, and providing the brand dashboard (progress updates, viewing and editing brand information).

If you choose investor connections under “preferred entry method” in the application, or note an interest in raising investment or inviting store investment, your application information is used to review investor connections (whether to introduce the brand to real estate companies or listed companies in Japan and Thailand, and to whom). This review is carried out within the Company, and what information is shown in an introduction is agreed with the brand first.

Information received through the contact form is used to confirm and answer the inquiry.

The website and social addresses registered in the application or the dashboard, and the expansion plans in the application, are used for the dashboard’s overseas expansion review report (products, prices and shipping conditions, preparation by expansion method) and for the website check (performance and SEO). To obtain a mobile performance score, we send the website address to Google PageSpeed Insights (only when the brand starts an analysis in the dashboard; entering it in the application alone does not send it).

The maps on the market analysis and recommended locations screens are drawn by your browser, which fetches map images directly from OpenFreeMap (tiles.openfreemap.org, via Cloudflare). Your browser’s IP address and the requested map address may be passed to that service; we do not receive or store them. OpenFreeMap states that it uses no cookies and does not keep IP addresses in its access logs (https://openfreemap.org/privacy/).

The district detail screen of the market analysis includes a list of YouTube videos selected by us. We use YouTube API Services (the YouTube Data API) to receive and store only public information about public videos, such as the title, channel, upload date and view count, and we do not send your personal information to YouTube. Video thumbnails are fetched by your browser directly from YouTube (i.ytimg.com), and the YouTube player (youtube-nocookie.com, privacy-enhanced mode) opens only when you click a video to play it. YouTube and Google may then use cookies and other device storage and receive your browser’s IP address and similar information, and that processing is governed by the YouTube Terms of Service (https://www.youtube.com/t/terms) and the Google Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy). If you do not want this, you can choose not to play videos, or block or delete cookies in your browser settings. Our service does not request access to your Google account; you can review and revoke the permissions of apps connected to your Google account in Google’s security settings (https://myaccount.google.com/permissions).

3. Retention and use period, and destruction

The contact person’s name, job title and contact details are kept for 3 years from the date of collection. After that period they are deleted from the database without delay.

The business email and edit history are kept until the account is deleted. If you request deletion, we delete them without delay. The edit history does not keep the values of the contact person’s name, job title or contact details; it records only that they changed.

Verification code records are deleted 30 days after the request. Login session records are deleted after they expire (30 days for brands, 12 hours for administrators).

Anonymous usage records for service improvement are deleted 1 year after they are recorded.

Information received through the contact form is kept for 1 year from the date it was received and is deleted without delay once that period has passed.

Website and social addresses and analysis results are kept until the brand information is deleted, and are deleted without delay if you request deletion.

4. Provision to third parties

The Company does not provide personal information to third parties without the separate consent of the data subject. When introducing a brand to real estate companies or listed companies in Japan and Thailand for investor connections, too, the Company provides personal information only after informing the brand, before the introduction, of the recipient, the purpose of provision, the items provided and the retention period, and obtaining the brand’s separate consent.

5. Entrustment of processing and storage location

The Company entrusts system building and management to 엔트로피패러독스 주식회사 (Entropy Paradox). Recipients marked “re-entrusted” are those to which that company has in turn entrusted work (re-entrustment).

6. Rights of the data subject

At any time, you may request access to, correction of, deletion of, or suspension of the processing of your personal information, and withdraw your consent. Send your request through the contact form (Contact us) or to help@partner.ohoi.xyz, and we will handle it without delay.

You have the right to refuse consent. However, if you do not consent, you cannot apply or send an inquiry.
