Privacy policy
ANCORA WORKS (Samuel Ancora, "I") handles your personal information carefully and in line with Japan's Act on the Protection of Personal Information (APPI). The Japanese version is the governing text.
1. What I collect
- What you send when you contact or order: your name, business name, industry, email, phone (optional) and your message.
- What's needed after we agree to work together: billing details, the name on bank transfers, and the text and photos for your site.
- Visits to this site: Cloudflare, which delivers the site, processes IP addresses and similar data for security and delivery. If I use visitor statistics, it's only Cloudflare Web Analytics, which uses no cookies and collects nothing that identifies you.
2. Why I use it
- To reply, quote, contract, and provide and maintain the service.
- To bill you and confirm payments.
- To send important notices about the service.
- To keep records the law requires.
3. Sharing and outside services
I don't give your information to third parties without your consent, except where the law allows. To provide the service I use these outside services (each handles data under its own privacy policy, and data may be stored on servers outside Japan):
- Google (Gmail, Google Drive): email and storing files for your project.
- Cloudflare: delivering this site and your website, and forwarding email.
- AI services (such as Anthropic's Claude): building and editing. I don't put your customers' personal or health information into them beyond what's needed.
4. Data in your website or system
If your website or booking system holds information about your own customers, you remain responsible for it, and I handle it only on your instructions and only to provide the service (as an outsourced processor). We set the details in the contract.
5. How long I keep it
Only as long as needed for the purposes above and as long as the law requires (for example, accounting records), then I delete it. Inquiries that don't lead to a contract are deleted one year after our last message.
6. Access, correction and deletion
To see, correct, stop the use of or delete your information, contact me below. I'll confirm it's you and respond as the law requires.
