Do not post on the internet

Do not post your LINE ID and QR code in public places such as on blogs, app reviews, forums and social networks. People you don’t know can see your information once they add you as a friend. Even if your social network accounts are private and your blog is open only to your friends, your information may spread from where you don’t expect. To prevent this, do not share your LINE ID and QR code online. Share them only with people you can trust such as your friends and family.
