Drafting a Personal Information Protection Policy
Mazda has always taken great care in its handling of personal information received from customers. With the Personal Information Protection Law taking effect in Japan as of April 1, 2005, we drafted a Personal Information Protection Policy for Mazda, which we published on our website on March 9, 2005.
The Mazda Call Center is fielding inquiries regarding how we handle personal information, as well as requests for disclosure of personal information by concerned parties.
