Social Media Policy

Yamazen Corporation and its group companies (hereinafter, the “Company”) operate a policy for information posted and broadcast from blogs, social networking services (SNS) and other user-driven media (hereinafter, “social media”) when using official accounts of the Company (hereinafter, “official accounts”), consisting of compliance with the behavior and basic manners set out below.

Also, this policy shall be made known and enforced within the Company so that it becomes a guiding principle for the posting of information to personal accounts on social media conducted by Group employees privately and voluntarily, irrespective of the affiliated organization and the form of employment.

1. Purpose of using social media

We use social media to facilitate marketing communication by the Company (the Company’s employees) through the appropriate sharing of information with stakeholders, and work to provide valuable information and insights. This is always implemented with an awareness that strengthening mutual ties through communication makes a significant contribution to enhancing the Company’s brand.

2. Self-awareness and responsibility with regard to posting and responding to information on social media

We are always aware that information posted from official accounts while representing the Company can be accessed by large numbers of unspecified users in various circumstances and from various backgrounds. We understand that information that has once been disclosed cannot be completely deleted. We never forget that a local posting can have global influence, and we always bear in mind that the information posted by each and every individual can have a substantial influence.

3. Consideration for readers

We treat readers with respect. We do not insult specific individuals, contain libelous or obscene content, or behave in ways that would not be tolerated in the workplace, or act in ways that could violate the privacy of others, nor do we post on topics such as politics and religion that can provoke differing opinions, and that could be incendiary.

We remember to listen closely, and in the event that we post incorrect information or use expressions that are liable to be misunderstood, we issue corrections swiftly.

In addition, while we pay the greatest respect to contributions from readers, postings, etc. that contain malicious slander in relation to specific individuals, companies, countries or regions will be dealt with as appropriate, by deletion or being removed from display, after consulting the rules for various social media.
