The use of athlete footage is governed by Article 8 of the Competition Terms. Spectators and other on-site visitors are informed that filming takes place.
- Optional: whether you receive promotional information and your notification settings, and consent to provision to third parties (sponsors) (optional consent at sign-up).
- Application and consent records: application date and time, applicable terms version, consent status and date and time, and records of the lead applicant's confirmation of authority to act on behalf of teammates.
- Automatically collected: access logs, cookies, etc.
Cookies are used to maintain login sessions and to analyze service usage statistics. Users may refuse the storage of cookies through their web browser settings; however, doing so may limit the use of certain services, such as login.
2. Purposes of Collection and Use
The Company uses personal data for member management, competition registration and entry verification, payments and refunds, customer support, and competition operations and safety notices. Photos, video, and results are used to provide athlete photos, publish results, and document and promote the competition. Advertising use by official partners and provision to third parties are governed by Article 6. Promotional information by email, text message, or similar channels is sent only to those who have separately consented to receive it.
3. Retention Period
Member and athlete registration information, service usage records, and competition photos, video, and results are retained and used permanently. Promotional notification settings are retained until you unsubscribe, and facial feature information is retained for the period stated in the separate consent form.
Statutory retention periods are 5 years for records of contracts, order cancellations, payments, and supply of goods; 3 years for records of consumer complaints and dispute resolution; and 6 months for records of labeling and advertising. These records are stored separately for statutory retention purposes. Where applicable law requires deletion or other measures, the Company complies accordingly.
4. Delegation of Processing (Data Processors)
The Company delegates personal data processing to the following parties to facilitate service delivery: Toss Payments (payment processing), PayPal (overseas USD payment processing), AWS (email delivery and infrastructure operation), Solapi (KakaoTalk notification delivery), Kakao (social login), and OurSymbol (competition photography and AI face-classification-based personal photo delivery).
Because OurSymbol's AI face-classification-based photo delivery involves processing facial-feature information, the Company obtains separate consent from the data subject for such processing.
5. Cross-Border Transfer of Personal Data
The Company transfers personal data outside Korea as follows (recipient / destination country / categories transferred / date and method of transfer / purpose of use).
- PayPal: United States / payment identification data (email, transaction records) / transmitted over the network at the time of overseas (USD) payment / overseas payment processing.
- AWS (Amazon Web Services): United States and others / email and service usage records / transmitted over the network for email delivery and infrastructure operation / cloud infrastructure operation and email delivery.
Data subjects may refuse consent to cross-border transfer; however, refusal may limit the use of certain services, such as overseas payment.
