Mercer Korea Co., Ltd. (“Mercer Korea”) and its affiliates (the “Company”) believe strongly in protecting the privacy of Internet users who visit our website, located at www.mercer.co.kr (the "Site”). This Privacy Policy is intended to inform you of the ways in which this Site collects personal information, the uses to which that information will be put, and the ways in which we will protect any personal information you choose to provide us. Generally, personal information is information that can be used to identify you or your activities on the Site or information about you which you provide to us through services offered on the Site.
This Privacy Policy applies not only to data collected via the Site, but also to any additional personal (and other) information that we have or collect about you or your company pursuant to other relationships which is subject to other agreements and rules.
The Privacy Policy is subject to change at any time. If we make changes to this Privacy Policy, we will update the “Effective date” at the top of this page. Any changes we make to this Privacy Policy become effective immediately, so you should review this Privacy Policy regularly for changes.

Information Collected by Automated Means:
To understand how we may use cookies on our Site, please see our Cookie Notice. We use various tools to enhance the Site user experience and track users of the Site, including cookies and web beacons. Cookies are small pieces of text that a website places on your computer to help remember information about your visit. Web beacons are tiny graphics with a unique identifier that are embedded invisibly on the web pages. Neither cookies nor web beacons can read data off your computer's hard drive or collect your personal information. We use information collected from cookies and web beacons to improve your experience and the overall quality of our services. We may also use cookies and web beacons to collect information from third parties (such as Google) to help advertise our products and services, to analyze the effectiveness of our marketing or the performance of this Site, and to determine whether you may be interested in other products or services. We also use web beacons to help deliver cookies and compile analytics. Our cookies and web beacons may also come from third-party service providers who have permission to place such tools on our Site.
You can refuse to accept and delete cookies by adjusting your browser setting. Please note that refusing or deleting cookies may impact your browsing experience on the Site, or prevent you from using some of its services, and it may result in the deletion of any preferences you have set. For more information on how to reject or delete cookies, you should consult with your browser's or device’s help documentation. We belong to ad networks that may use your browsing history across participating website to show you interest-based advertisements on those websites. Because the data used for interest-based advertising is also used for other necessary purposes (including providing our products, analytics and fraud detection), opting out of interest-based advertising does not stop that data from being collected. Nor does it mean you will stop getting ads or see fewer ads. However, if you do opt out, the ads you receive will no longer be interest-based and may be less relevant to your interests. The Company does not use technology that recognizes do-not-track signals from your browser. You can also opt out of Internet based advertising by installing a browser plugin from the third party where available. For more information about interest-based advertising, please see: http://thenai.org/opt-out/.
In addition, in the course of ensuring network security and consistent service for all users, the Company employs software programs to do such things as monitor network traffic, identify unauthorized access or access to nonpublic information, detect computer viruses and other software that might damage the Company’s computers or the network, and monitor and fine-tune the performance of the Company network and this Site. In the course of such monitoring, these programs may detect additional information from your computer such as your IP address, addresses from network packets, and other technical information. Any such information is used only for the purpose of maintaining the security and performance of the Company’s networks and computer systems.
How Do We Use the Data We Collect?
We will use the information provided by you in order to serve your needs. This may include things such as sending you electronic or written materials or, for example, if you supply us with your telephone number, you may receive telephone contact from us in response to your request. We work with our business partners to collect information about the use of the site. Our business partners collect information such as how often users visit the site and what pages users visited prior to visiting the site. We use this information to maintain and improve the site. We may partner with Google Analytics in these activities. For information about how Google uses the information, see Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Statement. You can opt out of Google Analytics by visiting http://tools.google.com/dlpage/gaoptout.
We may also use the information we collect and receive as otherwise described to you at the point of collection or pursuant to your consent.

Retention Period and Destruction of Personal information
Once the Company has completed using your personal information for the purposes for which it was collected, the Company will immediately destroy such personal information. In addition, your personal information will be destroyed immediately upon your withdrawing your consent to the processing of your personal information, or requesting that your personal information be deleted. However, in cases where the Company is required to retain certain items of your personal information to comply with relevant laws, the Company will retain such personal information for the period required by law. During that time, the Company will use the personal information solely for the purpose of fulfilling its obligations under such laws. The followings are major examples of such retention:
- Books and material documents relating to the business and liquidation of the company: 10 years (Korea Commercial Code)
- Slips of other similar documents: 5 years (Korea Commercial Code)
- Records on handling consumer complaints or disputes: 3 years (Act on Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce)
- Website visit records: 3 months (Protection of Communications Secrets Act)
Procedure for Destruction: We will select personal information whose retention period has expired and destroy such information in accordance with applicable laws and our policies(including record retention schedule). Mercer Korea identifies the personal information for which a reason for destruction has occurred, and then destroys them with approval from the Chief Privacy Officer.
Method of Destruction: When deleting your personal information, we will take reasonable and technically feasible measures to ensure that the personal information is irrecoverable. Personal information in print media will be shredded or incinerated, while personal information in electronic files will be deleted in a manner such that the data will be irrecoverable.
What Steps Do We Take to Protect Your Information?
