The Biwako Visitors Bureau (BVB) website recognizes the importance of personal information. We strive to create a website that respects and protects personal information, complies with all relevant laws, and can be used by everyone with peace of mind.

Users of this website are usually not required to disclose any information about themselves. However, in some circumstances (e.g., when submitting a comment or question) BVB may ask User to provide certain information such as his or her name and email address; in such circumstances BVB will specify its reason for requiring such information. Personal information (identifying information) provided by User will not be shared with third parties without permission, except where required by law or in special circumstances.

BVB takes steps to safeguard personal information provided by users and to prevent its leakage, loss, alteration, and the like. Personal information that is no longer needed will be promptly and permanently destroyed or deleted.
