Privacy Notice

This notice explains how NARIAU handles information about applicants, organizers, and selection team members.

Operator

GARDE SECT (Responsible person: NOBUHIDE IMAMURA), 41-12 Idanakanomachi, Nakahara-ku, Kawasaki, Kanagawa, Japan

1. Information we collect

For applicants, we collect submitted names, date of birth, country or region, contact details, social and portfolio links, introductions, answers, and photos. For organizers and selection team members, we collect display name, email address, organization, role, policy acceptance, sign-in and activity records, and information required for subscriptions and billing. Passwords are stored in a non-reversible form.

2. How information is used

Information is used to provide opportunities, applications and selection; verify identity; communicate with applicants; manage teams, subscriptions and billing; prevent abuse; respond to incidents and requests; and operate the service securely.

3. Sharing with organizers

Application information is shared with the organizer and authorized selection team for the opportunity selected by the applicant. It is not made public.

4. Photos and materials

Photos and submitted materials are stored separately from public content and are available only to authorized organizers.

5. Internal notes

Selection notes recorded by organizers are not displayed to applicants or the public.

6. Retention and your rights

After the purpose is fulfilled, information is deleted unless retention is required by law or legitimate operations. To request access, correction, or deletion, contact us with your name, opportunity, and application ID. We will verify your identity and respond within a reasonable period.

7. Security

We use access controls, organization-level data separation, and private file storage to reduce unauthorized access, disclosure, alteration, or loss.

8. Changes

We may revise this notice as the service or applicable law changes. Material changes will be announced through NARIAU.

9. Roles of organizers and NARIAU

Each organizer is responsible for the selection purpose, information requested, retention period, and applicant communications for its opportunities. NARIAU stores and processes applicant information on the organizer’s instructions to provide secure recruiting and selection functions.

10. International use and transfers

When an applicant, organizer, or service provider is located in another country or region, information may be processed outside the individual’s country of residence. We use providers for hosting, private file storage, email delivery, payments, and security only to the extent required to provide the service. Where required, we use applicable legal, contractual, and access-control safeguards.

11. Minors

Applicants who require parental or guardian consent under local law or the opportunity terms must obtain that consent before applying. Organizers must clearly state applicable age and consent requirements.

12. Legal bases and objections

Depending on applicable law, processing may rely on consent, contractual necessity, legal obligations, or legitimate interests. Applicants may use the dedicated request form to object, withdraw consent, request portability, or exercise other available rights. They may also have the right to complain to a local supervisory authority.

13. Organizer account deletion

Organizers and selection team members can request account deletion from Settings after signing in. After identity verification, we review team ownership, unfinished subscriptions, legal retention duties, applicant information, and private files before processing the request. Audit or billing records required by law or legitimate operations may be retained for a limited purpose and period or anonymized.

14. Contact

Submit an applicant data request for access, correction, deletion, or restriction.
