Personal information includes:
Ricoh provides a wide range of products and business services. Ricoh collects, uses and discloses Personal Information to accept and fulfill orders for its products and services and to provide customer service. Some Ricoh customers choose to use Personal Information with Ricoh’s services. As a result, as a service provider, Ricoh may collect, store, process, and transfer Personal Information it obtains from customers.
Ricoh collects personal information from applicants for employment and uses it, in different phases of the hiring process, to verify applicants’ identity, eligibility to work in the United States, and qualifications for employment. In addition, Ricoh uses personal information provided by applicants to conduct pre-hiring background checks. No one is required to provide Ricoh with this information. However, Ricoh may not be able to process applications for employment and cannot offer employment to any person who does not provide the personal information required during the application process.
Ricoh collects personal information from each employee necessary to discharge its obligations, exercise its rights as an employer, and comply with applicable laws and regulations.
Personal information collected from applicants for employment and employees includes the applicant’s or employee’s full name, social security number, residential address, phone numbers, and personal email addresses. In connection with administering employment benefits, Ricoh may collect additional personal information concerning an employee’s spouse, domestic partner, children, and other dependents and beneficiaries.
Ricoh may transfer personal information collected from applicants for employment and employees to service providers that conduct background checks, provide or administer employment benefits, or provide other services related to Ricoh’s operations as an employer.
Ricoh has provided additional information for employees and applicants for employment who are California residents at the end of this Notice.
Ricoh collects and uses Personal Information to promote its products and services. For example, Ricoh may collect Personal Information from users of its public websites and on social media platforms to communicate with prospective customers and to provide them with promotional information and offers.

If a Ricoh customer uses Personal Information about you in conjunction with Ricoh’s services, Ricoh may collect that information in the course of providing those services.
Ricoh uses the Personal Information it collects for legitimate business purposes and in compliance with applicable law. For example, Ricoh uses Personal Information to:
Ricoh retains Personal Information for as long as it has a legitimate purpose for retaining that information and is permitted to do so by law. For example:
Personal Information Ricoh collects in the United States may be disclosed to:
You always have the choice to provide or withhold Personal Information in your communications with Ricoh, your interactions with Ricoh’s websites and on social media. For example, certain Ricoh’s public facing websites and social media postings are accessible to the general public with no requirement to provide Ricoh with information of any kind.
However, access to certain aspects of Ricoh’s online presence and the delivery of certain Ricoh publications, information, products and services require that Ricoh have certain Personal Information (e.g., Ricoh cannot provide you with information you request by email without knowing your email address). In other cases, to comply with its legal obligation and as a matter of the responsible management of its business, Ricoh makes information, products and services available subject to agreements that require you to provide certain Personal Information, so that Ricoh knows who it is doing business with. If you choose not to provide Ricoh with Personal Information as requested, you may not be able to access, obtain or use online resources, printed and electronic publications, information, products or services Ricoh provides to others.
If you no longer want to receive marketing-related emails from Ricoh, you may opt-out from receiving such communications by using the opt-out mechanism in the message that you have received, or by sending email to privacy@ricoh-usa.com. Ricoh will comply with your request promptly. However, if you opt out while you have an existing, ongoing relationship with Ricoh (e.g., because you or your employer are a Ricoh customer), Ricoh will continue to communicate with you and to collect and use your Personal Information, as this Notice describes, for the purposes of that relationship.
Requests to review, revise, update, or delete Personal Information you previously provided to Ricoh may be made by email to privacy@ricoh-usa.com. These requests may be made at any time and will be processed at no charge.
However, if you make such a request concerning your Personal Information that Ricoh obtained from a customer, Ricoh will respond to your request by referring it to the customer concerned and will alter Personal Information entrusted to it by customers solely as each customer instructs or as required by law.
Where Ricoh is required to respond to you directly concerning your Personal Information, we will seek to verify your identity as the data subject or a person to act on the data subject’s behalf concerning that Personal Information.
Ricoh may collect information that is not Personal Information – that is, data associated with use of Ricoh’s products, services, websites or social media that is not associated with you or with any identified or identifiable person.

When we retain another non-affiliated company to perform a function of this nature, we seek to provide them with only the information that they need to perform their specific functions. We also take reasonable steps to ensure that these third-party service providers are obligated to protect Personal Information that is provided to them.
