3. How long we keep it

When you delete your account, we close it right away. In case you deleted it by mistake, we keep your account information encrypted for 30 days and then destroy it.

Company inquiries are kept for one year after we've answered them, then deleted.

Once a retention period ends, the information is deleted so that it can't be recovered.

4. Sharing with third parties

We don't give your personal information to third parties, except where a law specifically requires it or an investigating authority requests it through the procedure the law sets out.

5. Processors and transfers abroad

To run the service, we entrust the following companies with processing personal information. Each receives only what its task needs and uses it for nothing else.

CompanyTaskLocation
Kakao Pay Corp.Payment processingRepublic of Korea
Amazon Web Services, Inc.Storing and delivering photos and resultsJapan (Tokyo)

While you use the service, companies outside Korea receive over the network only the items from section 1 that their task needs. They keep them for the periods in section 3 or until our contract with them ends.

If you don't want your information transferred abroad, you can delete your account. The service can't run without these companies, so it can't be used without this transfer.

6. Your rights

You can ask at any time to see, correct or delete your personal information, or to stop its processing. You can edit your profile and delete your account yourself on the account page.

For anything else, email the privacy officer below. We'll confirm it's you and act without delay.

7. Cookies

We use only cookies that keep you signed in and remember the language you chose. We don't use advertising or analytics cookies.

You can block cookies in your browser settings, but you then won't be able to use features that require signing in.

8. Security

Passwords are stored using one-way encryption, and all traffic travels over encrypted connections (HTTPS). Access to personal information is limited to the people and permissions the work requires, and access records are kept.
