These Terms set out the conditions and procedures for using all services (the "Service") provided on the website by the information site (the "Company"), as well as the rights, obligations and responsibilities between the Company and its members.
The terms used in these Terms are defined as follows.
① These Terms take effect when posted on the Service screen, on the notice board or announced by other means. ② The Company may amend these Terms to the extent that the amendment does not violate applicable laws, including the Framework Act on Electronic Documents and Transactions, the Content Industry Promotion Act, and the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection. ③ When the Company amends the Terms, it will announce the effective date and the reason for the amendment together with the current Terms on the initial Service screen at least 7 days before the effective date. However, where the change is disadvantageous to Members, it will be announced at least 30 days in advance. ④ A Member who does not agree to the amended Terms may request withdrawal of membership. If a Member continues to use the Service after the effective date without expressing an objection, the Member is deemed to have agreed to the amendment.
Matters not specified in these Terms are governed by the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection, the Personal Information Protection Act, the Framework Act on Telecommunications, the Telecommunications Business Act and other applicable laws.
