As a growing global company, being engaged in various business areas, We, Konica Minolta Group recognize that the confidence of our customers, business partners, officers and employees is our most valuable asset. Konica Minolta Group also recognizes that we are, not only to provide the best products and services, but also to meet the highest standards regarding compliance and social responsibility.
Konica Minolta Group is committed to respect the privacy of our customers, business partners, officers and employees and to protect the personal data of our customers, business partners, officers and employees.
This Policy applies to us, Konica Minolta, Inc. (“Konica Minolta”) and all of its affiliated companies (“Group Companies”) and our officers and employees. “Affiliated” in this instance means, that Konica Minolta may enforce the adoption of this Policy directly or indirectly, on the basis of voting majority, majority management representation or by agreement. Konica Minolta and Group Companies (“Konica Minolta Group”) establish and enforce internal rules such as regulations and procedures in accordance with this Policy.
This Policy sets forth the basic principles of Konica Minolta Group’s data protection and data security standards and ensures compliance with national and international data protection laws in force all over the world. Therefore it comprises the internationally accepted data protection principles, intending not to replace, but to supplement the respective national data protection and privacy laws (“National Legislation”). This means, that the content of this Policy has to be observed in the absence of a corresponding National Legislation or if a National Legislation provides lower requirements than this Policy. On the other hand, a National Legislation always takes precedence in case of a conflict with this Policy or if the National Legislation provides stricter requirements than this Policy.
This Policy extends to all processing of personal data. In countries where the data of legal entities are protected to the same extent as personal data, this Policy applies equally to data of legal entities. Anonymized data, e.g. for statistical evaluations or studies, is not subject to this Policy.
Personal data will be collected and processed in a lawful, fair and transparent manner to protect the individual rights of the data subjects.
Personal data will only be collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes and will not be processed in a manner incompatible with those purposes.
Personal data will be accurate and where necessary kept up to date. Konica Minolta Group will take every reasonable step to erase or rectify inaccuracies without delay.
Personal data will be adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary. Personal data will not be stored longer than necessary.
Konica Minolta Group respects the rights of all data subjects including rights of access to their data, the right of restriction of processing or erasure, and the right of accuracy. Konica Minolta Group will provide clear and unambiguous information about how and why subjects’ data are collected and processed.
Time limits for storage of personal data will be defined. Konica Minolta Group erases personal data that are no longer necessary in relation to the purposes for which they have been collected or in a case a given consent is withdrawn and no other legitimate purpose for processing applies.
Personal data will be processed securely. Appropriate to the risk, technical and organisational measures will be taken against unauthorised processing or alteration, and against loss or destruction or unauthorized disclosure of or access to personal data transmitted, stored or otherwise processed. Konica Minolta Group will ensure ongoing integrity, availability, confidentiality and authenticity. Konica Minolta Group will ensure resilience of our systems and services processing personal data. In the event of an incident Konica Minolta Group will have the ability to restore the availability and access to data in a timely manner.
Konica Minolta Group will implement appropriate technical and organisational measures for ensuring that, by default, only personal data that is necessary for each specific purpose of the processing is processed. The principle of Data Protection by design and by default will be followed during the development of new products.
There shall be accountability in all processing activities. Konica Minolta Group is responsible for and able to demonstrate compliance.
Each Konica Minolta Group company shall appoint a qualified person, who is responsible for the implementation and observance of the aforementioned principles.

You hold the following rights with regard to your personal data processed by us:
If you only our website for informational purposes, i.e. if you do not register or otherwise provide us with information, we shall only collect the personal data that your personal browser sends to our server. These data are necessary from a technical point of view to let you view our website. They are also required in order to ensure the stability and security of our website. (Legal basis is Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter f of the GDPR).
Some of the services offered on our website can only be performed if we are able to contact you. This means that availing yourself of these services is dependent on you providing us with specific personal (contact) data. We only collect, use and process these data insofar as this is necessary for the performance of the respective services. If you contact us via email or a contact form, the data you enter (your email address and other data you impart to us of your own free will, such as your name/telephone number) are stored by us so we can process your request and answer any questions you may have. We delete the data we have stored about you when it is no longer required. We restrict processing in the case of statutory retention obligations. We process your data in line with Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter f of the GDPR.
If we request consent to process your personal data, we do so in line with Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter a of the GDPR. If processing your personal data is required to fulfil a contact or pre-contractual measures prompted by your request, our processing is legally based on Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter b of the GDPR. In cases in which processing of personal data is required to fulfil our legal obligations, processing is in line with Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter c of the GDPR. If processing of personal data is necessary to protect a legitimate interest of our company or a third party, and if at the same time the interests, basic rights and freedoms of the data subjects, which require the protection of personal data, do not take precedence over our legitimate interest, Article 6, Paragraph 1, Letter f of the GDPR shall serve as legal basis for said processing.
Unless otherwise specified, we delete personal data in accordance with Article 17 and 18 of the GDPR or restrict their processing. We only process and store your personal data for as long as they are required to fulfil our contractual and legal obligations. Data no longer required for the intended purpose are deleted regularly unless temporary further processing is necessary, which may arise on account of other legally permissible purposes. In compliance with documentation and legal retention obligations in Germany, the necessary documents are stored for six years in line with Article 257, Paragraph 1 of the German Commercial Code (HGB) and ten years in line with Article 147, Paragraph 1 of the German Fiscal Code (AO).
In order to avoid payment defaults, we may conduct credit checks in individual cases prior to contract closure and as part of relevant contract amendments, if we are to render services that are only billed at a later date. We protect ourselves from payment defaults by said conducting of credit checks. Based on scoring (profiling) we assess the extent to which customers will fulfil their contractual payment obligations; the score ratings help us with our decision-making. Scoring is based on a recognised mathematical-statistical method. We store the results of credit data for 365 days.

Within social networks, as the site operator, we use the services of online platforms to inform the users active on these platforms about information offers and services provided by Konica Minolta in order to communicate directly via the platforms if users are interested in this. The social media channels thus add to our own online presence and offer interested parties who like this type of information an alternative communication channel.
We currently have our own online profiles in the following networks:
When the relevant Konica Minolta social media profile is called up in your network, the terms and conditions of business and the data processing policies of the relevant operator apply.
We do not have any influence on the collection of data and the further use thereof by social networks. We only know that your data will be used for market research and advertising purposes and that usage profiles will be created from your user behaviour and the interests resulting from this. In addition, further advertising based on presumed interests can be turned on. This is normally achieved by saving cookies on your computer.
We would therefore like to explicitly make you aware that users’ data (e.g. personal information, IP address) will be saved by the network operators in accordance with their policies on data usage and used for business purposes. We would also like to point out that your data may be processed outside the European Union as part of these activities. US providers, who are certified under the Privacy Shield, undertake to comply with EU data protection standards.
We only process the data of users of Konica Minolta’s social media platforms to the extent that these users contact and communicate with us via comments or direct messages. You can assert data subject rights against us (see also Item II of your rights) and against the provider of the social network.
The processing of users’ personal data is based on our legitimate interest, which is to effectively inform and communicate with users in accordance with Art. 6(1f) GDPR. If you are asked for your consent to data processing by the relevant providers (i.e. to give your consent, e.g. by ticking a checkbox or confirming via a button), the legal basis is processing in accordance with Art. 6(1a) GDPR.
YouTube videos are included on our websites. They are stored on www.Youtube.com, but can be played back directly on our website. On including videos on our website we activated advanced data protection mode. This means that if you do not play back videos, no data about you is transmitted to YouTube. However, if you play back videos, the data are sent to YouTube. Initially, YouTube receives the information that you have accessed the corresponding page on our website. Other data can also be transmitted to YouTube, of which we have no knowledge. In this case also, we have no influence on data transmission. If you log into YouTube the transmitted data are directly linked to your account. If you do not wish this to happen, you have to log out of YouTube before you play back videos on our websites. YouTube stores your data as a user profile and uses them for advertising and market research purposes and/or to tailor its website to user needs. Evaluation of this nature may in particular be used for targeted advertising (even in the case of users who have not logged in). YouTube offers you a right of objection to the creation to user profiles, which you must lodge directly with YouTube.
The YouTube privacy statement provides more information on the purpose and scope of data acquisition and processing, and also additional information on your rights and settings options to protect your privacy: www.google.de/intl/de/policies/privacy. Google also processes your personal data in the USA and has subjected itself to the EU-US Privacy Shield https://www.privacyshield.gov/EU-US-Framework.
The legal basis for the inclusion of YouTube videos is Article 6, Paragraph 1, Sentence 1, Letter f of the GDPR.
If you are a member of a social network and you do not wish the platform to collect data relating to you via our website on the social network and to link it to your saved data on the relevant network, you must log out of the relevant network before visiting our website, delete any cookies saved on the device and then close and reopen your browser. When you log in again, you will be recognised as a specific user by the network.
Please see the information under the provider links below for a detailed description of the relevant processing activities and opt-out options.
Should you wish to request information or assert any user rights, we would also point out that the most effective way to do this is with the providers themselves. Only the providers have access to the users’ data and can take the relevant measures directly and provide information. Should you still need assistance, please do not hesitate to contact us.
In addition, European marketing operators are providing a new way to opt out under the following link: http://www.youronlinechoices.com/. This is an initiative designed to clarify the topic of online advertising. In the “Your Online Choices” area http://www.youronlinechoices.com/ you will find an overview of providers whose online advertising you can turn off or on. Such providers also include Facebook and Google.
