How we use your information

Cookies and local storage

This site sets no analytics cookies and no advertising cookies. The only item stored in your browser is a small flag that records whether you have dismissed the cookie notice, so it does not reappear on every page load. You can clear this at any time through your browser settings. No third-party cookies are loaded. Prime Horizon Lab does not participate in any advertising network or retargeting programme.

Sharing and disclosure

We do not sell, rent, trade or otherwise share your personal information with third parties for their marketing purposes. Your data is not disclosed to advertisers, data brokers, or affiliate networks. The only circumstances under which we would share your information are: (a) where you have given explicit consent; (b) where disclosure is required by a court order or other binding legal obligation under Japanese law or the law of your jurisdiction; (c) where it is necessary to protect the rights or safety of Prime Horizon Lab, our clients, or the public.

International considerations and your rights

Because Prime Horizon Lab is based in Japan, personal data you provide may be processed in Japan. Japan has been recognised by the European Commission as providing an adequate level of data protection. If you are located in the EEA, your rights under the GDPR are respected: you may request access to, correction of, or erasure of your data, restrict processing, object to processing, or request portability. If you are a California resident, you have the right under the CCPA to know what personal information we hold about you, to request its deletion, and to opt out of any sale of personal information (we do not sell personal information). Under Japan’s APPI, you may request disclosure, correction, cessation of use, or deletion of your personal data held by Prime Horizon Lab.

Data retention

We keep your messages and contact details for as long as the enquiry or engagement remains active. Once an engagement is concluded and no further communication is expected, we delete your information within twelve months unless a legal obligation — such as tax record requirements under Japanese commercial law — requires a longer retention period. You may request earlier deletion at any time by contacting us.

Security measures

All personal information held by Prime Horizon Lab is stored on access-controlled systems. Access is limited to personnel who need it for the purposes described in this policy. We use encrypted connections (TLS) for data in transit. We review our security practices periodically and update them as necessary. While no system is completely immune to risk, we take reasonable and appropriate steps to protect your data.

Children’s privacy

Prime Horizon Lab does not knowingly collect personal information from individuals under the age of 16. If you believe that a child has provided us with personal data, please contact us at hello@prime-horizon-lab.com so that we can remove it promptly.

We may update this privacy policy from time to time to reflect changes in our practices or in applicable law. The current version is always available at this page. Where a change is material, we will note the revision date at the top of the policy. Continued use of the site after an update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
