In compliance with the Personal Data Protection Act and other applicable laws and regulations, the Company has established and publicly disclosed its Personal Data Protection Management Measures and related internal control procedures as the basis for the collection, processing, and use of personal data.
Through the establishment of policy frameworks, management processes, and technical safeguards, the Company seeks to ensure the security, integrity, and availability of personal data throughout its lifecycle.
I. Personal Data Protection Policy and Scope of Application
The Company’s personal data protection system applies to all personnel and activities involving the collection, processing, and use of personal data, including the headquarters, branch offices, subsidiaries, business partners, and outsourced personnel entrusted with processing personal data.
The personal data collected by the Company may include information relating to customers, job applicants, employees, supplier contacts, and other relevant stakeholders. Such data is managed in accordance with the Company’s Personal Data Protection Management Measures and applicable operating procedures.
The Company processes personal data only for lawful and specified purposes and does not disclose such data to third parties without authorization or a lawful basis. Audit and review mechanisms, access controls, and technical safeguards are implemented to reduce the risks of unauthorized access, disclosure, or misuse of personal data.
II. Responsible Departments and Management Responsibilities
The Human Resources Department serves as the primary department responsible for the Company’s personal data protection management system. Its responsibilities include promoting the personal data management framework, enhancing awareness of personal data protection, planning and implementing education and training programs, and formulating policies and operating procedures related to personal data protection and management.
The Human Resources Department is also responsible for cross-departmental coordination and continuous improvement of the management system to ensure that personal data protection requirements are effectively incorporated into relevant business processes.
The Information Technology Department is responsible for supporting the development and implementation of the information systems and technical safeguards required for personal data management. These responsibilities include system development, data access authorization management, information security protection, and other technical control measures to ensure that personal data processing activities are supported by adequate technical security.
