Please note that the UK’s laws are similar to those in the EEA, and customers from both jurisdictions have very similar rights. Accordingly, references to the GDPR in this Chapter should also be read as references to corresponding UK law.

A guardian’s consent or permission must be obtained in the event that a customer under the age of 16 uses OCS’s service and consents to this Privacy Policy. The data subject’s consent to this Privacy Policy must be obtained in the event that a person such as family member applies for OCS’s service on behalf of the data subject.

2.The controller of personal information

The controller of your personal information is OCS.

OCS protects personal information which is collected and used by controllers (who make decisions about how and why your personal information is used) and processors (who act on the controller’s written instructions) on the basis of Data Protection Laws.

 

3.Our lawful basis for processing personal information

OCS protects your personal information by ensuring that it can only be used to the extent necessary for specific purposes (as set out in Part 3 of Chapter 1 of this Privacy Policy) and by requiring that there is a lawful basis for each processing activity on the basis of Data Protection Laws.

OCS may process customer personal data on one or more of the following lawful bases:

(a) When your consent is obtained to the processing (Article 6(1)(a) GDPR)

Consent will usually only be relied upon for promotional and marketing related processing, or in some cases, in relation to sensitive personal data.

(b) When processing is necessary in order to perform or take steps to enter into a contract (Article 6(1)(b) GDPR).

This is typically why we process customer information which is essential to providing our services, including a customer’s identity, contact, payment and travel details, etc.

(c) OCS needs to process the information to comply with a lawful obligation (Article 6(1)(c)). This includes the requirement to share personal information with customs and immigration authorities or law enforcement, as well OCS’s legal duties towards its staff and customers.

(d) The information is required to protect your, or a third party’s, vital interests (Article 6(1)(d)), for example in the event of a medical emergency.

(e) It is in OCS’s or a third party’s legitimate interests to process the personal data, and these interests are not overridden by your rights under Data Protection Laws (Article 6(1)(f) GDPR). This includes the use of personal information necessary to operate OCS’s business and also to maintain, develop and improve its products and services and provide the best possible customer experience.

This only applies to personal information which we obtain from you and process on the basis of your consent or in order to perform a contract, and which is processed by automated means.
5) Objecting to processing: You can object to processing which is carried out on the basis of our or a third party’s legitimate interests or for the purpose of direct marketing. We will stop processing your information unless we have a strong reason to continue which overrides your objection. If your objection is to direct marketing, we will always stop.
6) Restricting how your personal information is processed. You can limit how we process your personal information in certain circumstances. Where this applies, any processing of your personal information (other than storing it) will only be lawful with your consent or where required for legal claims, protecting certain rights or important public interest reasons.
7) The right to withdraw consent. If we are relying on consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.
Please note, the rights set out above are not absolute and do not apply in every situation. There are also legal exemptions which apply in some situations and mean a request may be refused. Of course, if a request is refused we will inform you of the reasons for this when we respond.
Records of requests made to us will be retained so that we can ensure we have complied with our legal obligations.

Chapter 5. Handling of personal information of Thailand residents by OCS

1.Introduction

This Chapter 5 provides additional information about the collection, use, or disclosure (“processing”) of personal information of customers and other individuals in the Kingdom of Thailand (“Thailand”) in accordance with the Personal Data Protection Act of Thailand B.E. 2562 (A.D. 2019) (“PDPA”).

If consent is required for processing of personal information relevant to the use of OCS’s services of data subjects who are minors, quasi-incompetents or incompetents under the law of Thailand and cannot lawfully give consent by themselves, consent or permission of the persons exercising parental power, their curators or custodians (as the case may be) must also be obtained. If data subjects are under the age of 10, only consent or permission of the persons exercising parental power must be obtained.

 

If OCS is not aware that the data subjects are minors, quasi-incompetent persons or incompetent persons prior to the collection of their personal information, upon learning that we have collected personal information of minors without the consent of persons exercising parental power (when it is required and the minors cannot lawfully give consent by themselves), or from quasi-incompetent persons and incompetent persons without the consent of their legal curator and custodian, we will delete the personal information at the earliest convenience unless we can rely on other legal grounds apart from consent for such processing.

 

The data subject’s consent to this Privacy Policy must be obtained in the event that a person such as family member or an agent authorized to act on its behalf applies for OCS’s service on behalf of the data subject.

In the event that any provisions of this Chapter 5 contradict those of Chapter 1, the provisions of this Chapter 5 shall prevail.


2.The controller of personal information

The controller of your personal information is OCS.

OCS protects personal information which is collected and used by controllers (who make decisions about how and why your personal information is used) and processors (who act on the controller’s written instructions) on the basis of the PDPA.


3.Our lawful basis for processing personal information

OCS protects your personal information by ensuring that it can only be used to the extent necessary for specific purposes (as set out in Part 3 of Chapter 1 of this Privacy Policy) and by requiring that there is a lawful basis for each processing activity on the basis of the PDPA.

OCS may process customer personal information on one or more of the following lawful bases:

 

(a) When your consent is obtained to the processing (Article 19 PDPA)

Consent will usually only be relied upon for promotional and marketing related processing, or in some cases, in relation to sensitive personal information.

(b) When processing is necessary in order to perform or take steps to enter into a contract (Article 24(3) PDPA).

This is typically why we process customer information which is essential to providing our services, including a customer’s identity, contact, payment and travel details, etc.

(c) OCS needs to process the information to comply with a lawful obligation (Article 24(6) PDPA).

This includes the requirement to share personal information with customs and immigration authorities or law enforcement, as well OCS’s legal duties towards its staff and customers.

(d) The information is required to protect your, or a third party’s, vital interests (Article 24(2) PDPA), for example in the event of a medical emergency.

(e) It is in OCS’s or a third party’s legitimate interests to process the personal information, and these interests are not overridden by your fundamental rights regarding your personal information under the law (Article 24(5) PDPA).

This includes the use of personal information necessary to operate OCS’s business and also to maintain, develop and improve its products and services and provide the best possible customer experience to the extent permissible under the PDPA.

3) Request for erasure: You may request that we erase, destroy or anonymize all or part of the personal information we hold about you. We will consider your request and, where the information is no longer required or the law does not permit us to continue to retain it, we will delete it.

4) Transferring your personal information: You can request a copy of your personal information in a structured, common, machine-readable format. This only applies to personal information which we obtain from you and process on the basis of your consent or in order to perform a contract, and which is processed by automated means.

5) Objecting to processing: You can object to processing which is carried out on the basis of our or a third party’s legitimate interests or for the purpose of direct marketing. We will stop processing your information unless we have a legitimate reason to continue which overrides your objection. If your objection is to direct marketing, we will always stop.

6) Restricting how your personal information is processed. You can limit how we process your personal information in certain circumstances. Where this applies, any processing of your personal information (other than storing it) will only be lawful with your consent or where required for legal claims, protecting certain rights or important public interest reasons.

7) The right to withdraw consent.

If we are relying on consent to process your personal information, you have the right to withdraw that consent at any time.

However, the withdrawal of consent shall not affect the processing of your personal information that you have already given consent legally before it is withdrawn.

 

Please note, the rights set out above are not absolute and do not apply in every situation. There are also legal exemptions which apply in some situations and mean a request may be refused.

Of course, if a request is refused we will inform you of the reasons for this when we respond.

How we deal with your personal information on our website

The following describes how we treat personal information gathered via the OCS website.

If you wish to know more about our general policy on privacy protection, please refer to the OCS Privacy Policy document.

 

1.Introduction

This document defines how we deal with information gathered via the OCS website and is based on the OCS Privacy Policy. OCS makes every effort to protect your privacy so that you can use the OCS website with confidence and peace of mind.

 

Customers are kindly requested to fully understand the details below before using the OCS website.

 

Scope

This processing shall be applied when customers use the OCS website (ocs.co.jp domain) and shall not be applied to sites operated by other companies. The OCS website provides links to other websites in order to provide useful information and services for customers. The OCS privacy policy shall not be applied to linked sites. When browsing a site, we recommend that customers check the content of its statement on privacy protection.

 

2.Security

Security technology which protects personal information

Protection of personal information is secured using SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) encryption technology. This means that any information you provided when using this site cannot be accessed by an unauthorized third person. Furthermore, a firewall and anti-virus measures have been installed to prevent disclosure, appropriation, alteration, etc, of personal information.

 

*Secure sockets layer (SSL) mechanism

Before customers send their personal information, SSL performs electronic communication concerning security (digital authentication and digital signature) between OCS and customers, and transmits data after mutual authentication. At that time, communication between OCS and a customer is disturbed by random numbers and erroneous transmissions, which are sent to a third party, preventing attempts to steal data by impersonating the customer.

In addition, information transmitted by SSL is encrypted concurrently using two types of cryptographic scheme: public key cryptosystem (RSA) and common key cryptosystem (secret key cryptosystem). An electronic "key" is required to decrypt this information. Even if the information is intercepted by a third party, it is impossible to decrypt the encrypted information without the correct key. Types of key are limited, however, it is extremely difficult for a third party to decipher the information because it takes an unrealistically long time to try all keys in order and reach the correct key, even if the third party uses electronic means with a personal computer, etc.
