8. Deletion

We delete information without delay when its retention period ends or its purpose is fulfilled. Information we must keep by law is used only for that purpose and deleted at the end of the legal period. When you close your account, your sign-in credentials (email, password, social account identifier), name and phone number are immediately deleted or de-identified, and your saved addresses and wishlist are deleted; order and payment records are kept for the legal periods in Section 3. Electronic files are deleted irrecoverably and paper records are shredded or incinerated.

9. Your Rights

  1. You may at any time request access to, correction or deletion of, or suspension of processing of your personal information, or withdraw consent.
  2. In My Page you can view and edit your name and phone number, add or delete addresses, turn marketing consent on or off, change your password and close your account.
  3. For other requests, email our Privacy Officer at [email protected]. We will respond within 10 days. You may also act through a legal representative or an authorised agent with a power of attorney.
  4. Information we are legally required to keep cannot be deleted on request, and requests may be refused where they could harm another person's life, body or property; we will explain any refusal.
  5. We do not accept registrations from children under 14 and delete any such information without delay once we become aware of it.
  6. Please keep your information accurate and up to date.

If you live outside Korea, you may have additional rights under local law (for example, data portability or the right to object); we will honour them through the same contact.

10. Security Measures

  • Administrative: access to personal information is limited by role (super admin, operations, staff, partner seller, creator); partner sellers and creators can access only their own data.
  • Technical: passwords stored with one-way encryption (bcrypt); all traffic encrypted with HTTPS (TLS 1.3); token-based access control with ownership checks; rate limiting on sign-in and password recovery; payment credentials not stored (handled by the payment provider); uploaded images re-encoded to strip metadata such as photo location.
  • Physical: servers run in a cloud data centre (Vultr) with access controls and security certifications; the database cannot be reached directly from the internet.

11. Pseudonymised Information

We do not process pseudonymised information.
