IP Addresses

When you visit our websites our servers will record your IP address (without matching it to your name, address or similar personal data) together with the date and time of your visit. An IP address is an assigned number, similar to a telephone number, which allows your computer to communicate over the internet. We will use your personal data for demographic and statistical purposes, including to determine the number of visitors to our websites in any given period and analyse patterns of use of our websites. We do not match or combine such demographic or statistical information with other personal data.

You are entitled to tell us if you do not wish to receive such communications (see "Your rights" below).

We may share your personal data with other entities within the Nomura Group in order to operate corporate, back office functions and IT and in order to meet the purposes for which we collect and use your personal data. We will also share your personal data with our service providers which support us technically in the provision of our websites. Any service providers that receive your personal data may only use or disclose your personal data to the extent necessary to perform services on our behalf or to comply with legal requirements. We also require such service providers to put in place appropriate technical and organisational security measures in respect of any of this personal data.

We may also disclose your personal data to governmental agencies or entities, regulatory authorities, or other persons to the extent necessary for us to comply with any laws, rules, orders, subpoenas, official requests, or similar processes which apply to Nomura anywhere in the world, in accordance with applicable data protection laws. We may also share your personal data with potential purchasers of, or investors in, some or all of our business, and with their advisors and financiers where we have a legitimate interest to do so.

Links to Third Party Websites

Our websites provide links to other third party websites that operate independently from us and are not under our control. These third party websites may have their own privacy notices or terms of use, which we strongly recommend you review if you visit any linked websites. We are not responsible for the content of these linked websites or any products or services that may be offered through these linked websites, or any other use of the linked websites.

How We Protect Your Personal Data

We have implemented administrative, technical and physical safeguards for our websites to protect your personal data from loss, misuse, unauthorised access, disclosure, unauthorised alteration or unlawful destruction.

Personal Data We Transfer

We operate globally and, like many businesses, we operate back office IT functions and data centres in major locations within and outside of the European Economic Area (EEA). As a result, your personal data might be stored in any one of these locations. From time to time, we may also need to transfer your personal data to Nomura companies or third parties in other countries where we do business or have a service provider. Such countries may not have the same data protection laws as the European Union, the EEA or the country in which you reside.

When transferring your personal data, we will take all appropriate steps to provide an adequate level of protection for your personal data in accordance with relevant legislation. These steps may include, where appropriate, use of suppliers that adhere to the EU-US Privacy Shield principles, use of European Commission approved standard contractual clauses, and exercising audit and inspection activities in respect of the actions of those third parties in connection with the use of your personal data. If you wish to receive further details regarding the safeguards applied, contact the Data Protection Officer (please see below for contact details).

If you wish to make a request in relation to any of the rights listed above or if you would like to raise any other questions relating to privacy, please contact the Data Protection Officer (please see below for contact details).

Right to Object

You have the right to object to the processing of your personal data, in certain circumstances and considering other regulatory requirements, in particular where we rely on legitimate interests, including for profiling. For further information, please refer to the 'Legitimate Interests' section above.

If you wish to exercise your right to object, contact the Data Protection Officer (please see below for contact details).

Data Retention

We will retain your personal data only for as long as necessary for the relevant processing activity and/or for as long as is necessary to comply with all relevant statutory and regulatory requirements. Where we are unable to delete the personal data for other legal, regulatory or technical reasons, we will ensure that the security and confidentiality of the personal data is protected and only used for the specified purposes for which it was provided.

Privacy Complaints

You have the right to lodge a complaint with European Data Protection Supervisory Authorities regarding the processing of your personal data by Nomura.
