Customer information is closely managed and supervised under very strict internal security regulations. HMC's security regulations clearly indicate the persons in charge of customer information security in every department, and restrict the extent of available information according to the objectives of use and the users. In the event an internal employee requires the use of customer information, (s)he is required to fill out an application to receive full authorization from the person-in-charge. Where an outsourcing company requires the use of any customer information, the company is obligated to sign an Individual Information Protection Agreement and is required to have the document notarized. Furthermore, once any tasks are completed, the outsourcing company is required to collect and destroy the information, and to write a Customer Information Destruction Confirmation in order to ensure and prevent any leaking of customer information. In line with this initiative, HMC operates customer information security training more than once per quarter for the customer information managing department and operative system users, and implements the Database Security System (DDS), which is an intensified system protecting individual information on the Internet.
