If the Company separately implements a policy for managing long-term inactive accounts, Users will be notified in advance.
Article 4 (Provision of Personal Information to Third Parties)
As a general rule, the Company does not provide a data subject’s personal information to third parties beyond the scope of the purposes for which it was collected and used. However, where necessary to enter into and perform the contract for a Product selected by the User, including reservation, Ticket Issuance, admission, or tour operation, the Company provides the minimum personal information necessary to the Supplier or operator of the Product within the scope permitted by applicable law or based on separate consent. In particular, because the supply chain for overseas Tickets and travel Products may differ by Product, the Company provides information at the purchase stage so that the User can identify the actual Supplier, original Supplier, facility operator, or reservation system for the applicable Product and the personal information to be provided.
| Type of Recipient | Information Provided | Purpose | Retention/ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Venues, organizers, facility operators | Name, date/ | Booking Confirmation, seat assignment, Ticket Issuance, admission verification, schedule changes/ | Until completion of the applicable Product and for the recipient’s statutory/ |

| Payment service providers, card issuers, banks | Transaction information necessary for payment, payment amount/ | Payment approval, settlement, cancellation/ | Period prescribed by financial/ |
The Company distinguishes, based on the actual contract and processing structure, whether a Supplier is an independent third party processing personal information or a processor acting under the Company’s instructions. Specific business names and Product-specific provision details may be kept current and disclosed on the service screen or in a separate “Status of Personal Information Provision and Overseas Transfers.”
Article 5 (Outsourcing of Personal Information Processing)
The Company may outsource part of its personal information processing operations to specialized service providers for the smooth provision of services. The Company incorporates necessary matters into contracts and manages and supervises processors in accordance with applicable law so that personal information is processed securely.
| Processor / | Current or Planned Service | Outsourced Operations |
|---|---|---|
| Domestic payments | Toss Payments | Domestic payment approval, cancellation, refund, and payment-related processing |

※ The legal characterization of the services listed above may constitute “outsourced processing,” “provision to a third party,” or “overseas transfer” depending on the actual contract and integration structure. Before Production deployment, the Company will verify the actual contracting party, processing location, and data flow and finalize and disclose the applicable classification.
Article 5-2 (Mobile Information and SMS Consent)
1. The Company processes mobile phone numbers and SMS consent information to send booking-related text messages to users who have expressly opted in. These messages may include order confirmations, ticket issuance and delivery updates, cancellations, and schedule changes.
2. The Company maintains records of SMS consent status, consent timestamps, and opt-out requests for the purposes of SMS delivery and consent management.

5. The Company's SMS notification program does not include advertising, marketing, or promotional messages.
6. Users may withdraw their SMS consent at any time by replying STOP to a message. The Company will discontinue SMS notifications covered by the withdrawn consent.
Article 6 (Overseas Transfer of Personal Information)
In the course of providing services such as reservations and Ticket Issuance for overseas Products, overseas payments, and global cloud and messaging services, the Company may transfer personal information overseas. Overseas transfer may include not only providing personal information to an overseas business but also processing, storing, or making such information accessible outside Korea. The Company establishes a lawful basis under the Personal Information Protection Act and discloses or obtains separate consent for required matters, including the personal information transferred, destination country, timing and method of transfer, recipient, purpose and retention period, and the method and effect of refusing the transfer.

The specific name and contact information of overseas recipients and other matters that must be individually specified under applicable law will be made available, according to the actual transfer structure, in this Privacy Policy, a separate notice/consent screen at the Product purchase stage, or the status of overseas transfers. Where separate consent is required for an overseas transfer, the data subject may refuse consent. However, where the overseas transfer is essential to perform the contract, such as reservation/Ticket Issuance for an overseas Product or overseas payment, refusal may restrict reservation, purchase, Ticket Issuance, or use of the related service. ※ Where an actual overseas transfer occurs, the Company will provide, to the extent required by applicable law, information including the legal name and contact information of the recipient, destination country, information transferred, timing and method, purpose, and retention period through this Privacy Policy, a separate notice/consent screen at the Product purchase stage, or the status of overseas transfers. The contractual data processor and actual processing country of an overseas Ticket Issuance system will be finally confirmed and reflected before operation.
Article 7 (Processing of Personal Information with Affiliates, Including TripFun USA Inc.)
The Company may cooperate with affiliates, including TripFun USA Inc., for global service operations such as overseas Product supply contracts, operational support, customer support, settlement, and technical support. Where an affiliate processes personal information, the Company classifies the processing as provision to a third party, outsourced processing, or overseas transfer according to the actual business structure, and clearly indicates the purpose, information processed, retention period, destination country, and required legal basis in this Policy or a separate notice/consent screen. The Company does not comprehensively share all Member information or transaction information merely because an entity is an affiliate.
Article 8 (Sensitive Information and Unique Identification Information)
As a general rule, the Company does not collect sensitive information such as health information or unique identification information such as resident registration numbers.

Passport information, copies of identification documents, and similar information are not required for all Products. For Products requiring such information, the Company separately provides notice of the purpose of collection, information collected, recipient, and retention period.
Article 9 (Destruction of Personal Information)
The Company destroys personal information without delay when it is no longer necessary due to expiration of the retention period, achievement of the processing purpose, or other reasons. Information that must be retained under applicable law is stored separately from other personal information or with restricted access.
1. Electronic files: securely deleted using a method that makes recovery or reproduction difficult.
2. Paper documents: destroyed by shredding, incineration, or another method that makes reproduction difficult.
Article 10 (Rights and Obligations of Data Subjects and Legal Representatives, and Methods of Exercise)
Data subjects may exercise rights, within the scope prescribed by applicable law, including access to, transmission, correction/deletion of, suspension of processing of, and withdrawal of consent to their personal information. Such rights may be exercised by the data subject or a lawful representative through the Company’s customer service center, email, or other methods provided by the Company, and the Company will process the request in accordance with applicable law. Deletion or suspension of processing may be restricted for transaction records subject to statutory retention obligations, information that another law expressly requires to be collected, and similar information. Users must securely manage their account and authentication information and provide accurate and up-to-date information necessary for reservation and Ticket Issuance.
Article 11 (Personal Information of Children Under 14)
As a general rule, the Company does not provide membership registration services to children under 14. If it does provide such services, it will establish procedures to verify the consent of a legal representative in accordance with applicable law.
