# Privacy Policy

This is a translation of the Korean original. In case of any discrepancy, the Korean version prevails.

## Article 1 (General Provisions)

Tilldone (the "Company") complies with relevant laws, including the Personal Information Protection Act, and through this Privacy Policy informs members of the purposes for which and the ways in which the personal information they provide is used, and of the measures taken to protect personal information.

This Policy applies to the Sojan (소문난잔치) service provided by the Company (the "Service").

## Article 2 (Items of Personal Information Collected and Collection Methods)

(1) The items of personal information collected by the Company are as follows.

1. Items collected at sign-up

| Login method | Items collected |
|---|---|
| Kakao | Social account identifier, nickname, profile image (optional) |
| Naver | Social account identifier, nickname, profile image (optional) |
| Google | Social account identifier, nickname, profile image (optional) |
| Apple | Social account identifier, nickname (if provided) |

The Company receives the above items from the social login platform chosen by the user, based on the user's consent. This provision of information is not an entrustment of personal information processing; it is collection from a third party based on the user's consent.

The Company collects only the minimum information necessary to provide the Service. It does not collect or store real names, mobile phone numbers, dates of birth or connecting information (CI/DI). However, such information may be included in documents a user attaches to prove that they are the right holder in a rights infringement report under Item 7; it is used only to handle the report and is destroyed when handling is complete. Email addresses are not collected at sign-up either; only in the case of a rights infringement report under Item 7 does the Company process the email address entered by the user for the purpose of replying and notifying the result of handling.

2. Matters confirmed at sign-up

During the sign-up process, the Company obtains confirmation from users that they are 14 years of age or older. The Company does not collect dates of birth or ages themselves; it records only the fact of confirmation and its date and time.

3. Items collected when using Contact us

Contact us is available in the app.

| Channel | Items collected | Purpose of collection | How it is processed |
|---|---|---|---|
| App | Inquiry content, inquiry type, device information (model, operating system, app version) | Receiving inquiries and replying, identifying the cause of errors | Stored in the database and answered through in-app notifications |

Inquiries in the app are available only to members and are answered through the account, so email addresses are not received.

4. Preference survey information (optional)

This is information on fields of interest (experience themes such as food, activities, performances, lights and tradition) that members voluntarily enter for calculating personalized recommendations (personalization scores) of the Service and for displaying personalized advertising. Entry is optional; if it is not entered, personalization scores are calculated with default weights.

5. Information automatically collected while using the Service

(a) Festival viewing history
(b) Access logs, access IP information, cookies
(c) Device information (OS, device identifier, app version)
(d) Location information (with separate consent)
(e) App performance records (such as the time it takes for a screen to load)

6. Content registered by members

(a) Review text, ratings and satisfaction ratings
(b) Booth, menu and price information
(c) Photos registered

If a photo contains shooting location information (EXIF), the Company uses it only to determine whether the member visited the site. The coordinates needed for this determination are sent to the Company's servers, compared with the festival venue and immediately discarded; only the result of the determination is stored. Photos themselves are uploaded with the shooting information removed. Matters concerning this are set out in Article 12 and Article 12-2.

7. Items collected for rights infringement reports

When a user files a rights infringement report about a review in the app, the following information is collected with the user's consent. This is available regardless of whether the user is a member.

| Items collected | Purpose of collection | How it is processed |
|---|---|---|
| Email address, explanation of the infringement | Handling the report and notifying the result | Stored in the database; the operator replies with the result by email |
| Up to two copies of documents that can verify the right holder (business registration certificate, contract, ID, etc.) | Verifying that the reporter is the party whose rights were infringed | Stored in the database and not disclosed externally |

If a document copy contains a resident registration number, the Company receives a copy with the last digits masked.

If the report is filed while logged in, the report is stored linked to the member account.

(2) The Company collects personal information by the following methods.

1. Provision of information through the social login platform at sign-up
2. Direct entry by members while using the Service
3. Collection through automated collection tools while using the Service
4. Direct entry by users through the rights infringement report form in the app

## Article 3 (Purposes of Collecting and Using Personal Information)

2. Preventing fraudulent use by abusive members and unauthorized use
3. Confirming the intention to sign up and keeping records for dispute mediation

(2) Providing the Service

1. Providing festival information and interest-based recommendations
2. Calculating personalization scores and providing personalized recommendations using preference survey information
3. Posting and sharing content registered by members (reviews, booth and menu information)

2. Publicizing and marketing the Service and the Company using content registered by members
3. Displaying personalized advertising using preference survey information and Service use records (festivals viewed and saved, etc.)
4. Introducing products and services of partner businesses and providing partner links
5. Measuring advertising performance and statistical analysis

The Company provides partner links under item 4. Which partner links are shown is decided by festival information (dates, weather and host area), and members' personal information and Service use records are not used. Partner links do not carry information that can identify users, and once a user moves through a partner link, that partner business's privacy policy applies.

As of the effective date of this Policy, personalized advertising and the transmission of advertising information are not in operation. If either of them is introduced, the Company will announce it through notices before it starts, together with a way to opt out for members who do not want personalized advertising.

When sending advertising information for profit, such as event and benefit information, through electronic transmission media such as push notifications, the Company obtains separate prior consent to receive it in accordance with Article 50 of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection. There is no restriction on using the Service even without consenting to receive it, and consent may be withdrawn at any time after it is given.

The Company does not provide information used for personalized advertising to advertisers in a form that can identify members, and provides advertisers only with performance information in statistical form.

(5) Responding to inquiries

Checking and replying to inquiries received through Contact us in the app, and identifying the causes of reported errors

(6) Fulfilling legal obligations

1. Keeping records in accordance with relevant laws
2. Handling disputes and responding to complaints

## Article 4 (Retention and Use Period of Personal Information)

In principle, the Company destroys personal information without delay once the purpose of collection and use has been achieved.

(1) Member information

When a member withdraws, the Company processes the information it holds in the following three stages.

**Stage 1 — Destroyed immediately upon withdrawal**

| Item |
|---|
| Profile image (file deleted from storage) |
| Push notification tokens |
| Authentication tokens (logged out on all devices) |

**Stage 2 — Kept for 3 months after withdrawal and then destroyed**

| Item |
|---|
| Nickname |
| Preference survey information (fields of interest) |
| Records of consent to the use of location information |
| List of saved festivals of interest (saves) |
| List of blocked members |
| Records of notifications sent and read |
| Inquiry history |

The purpose of retention is account recovery. If a member signs up again with the same social account within 3 months after withdrawal, the member can recover the previous account with the above information carried over. After 3 months, the information is destroyed automatically, and a member who signs up again after that starts with a new account.

**Stage 3 — Kept without a set period**

| Item | Purpose of retention |
|---|---|
| Cryptographically transformed value of the social account identifier | Checking improper re-registration |
| Sign-up method (Kakao, Naver, Google, Apple) | Checking improper re-registration |
| Type and date and time of use restriction measures | Deciding whether to accept a sign-up under Article 4(4) of the Terms of Service |

This information does not include items that can identify a member, such as nicknames or profile images, and is used only for comparison with a value transformed in the same way when an application to sign up again is made.

No retention period is set because, if a member signs up again after such a period has passed, the previous use restriction history cannot be checked and Article 4(4) of the Terms of Service cannot operate.

(2) Content registered by members

Reviews, booth and menu information and satisfaction ratings are preserved after a member withdraws, with author information anonymized, for the convenience of other members, and the author is displayed as "Former member" for 3 months after withdrawal and as "Anonymous" thereafter. If a member requests deletion of content, it is deleted immediately, and after withdrawal the request can be made within 3 months through the contact details in Article 13. Once 3 months have passed, the information linking content to its author is destroyed and the content to be deleted can no longer be identified.

Secondary outputs created by reprocessing content or using it for artificial intelligence training are kept even after the original content is deleted or the member withdraws. These outputs do not contain information that can identify individual members.

(3) Records of post reports

Records of a member reporting another member's post are preserved after withdrawal for continuity of report handling and checking repeated reports, but information that can identify the reporter is anonymized.

(4) Inquiry information

| Channel | Retention |
|---|---|
| App | Kept regardless of whether it has been answered; if the member withdraws, destroyed 3 months after withdrawal in accordance with Stage 2 of Paragraph (1) |

App inquiries are kept even after they are answered because members need to be able to read past answers again on the inquiry history screen.

(5) Automatically collected information

Festival viewing history is kept for 90 days for usage statistics and improving recommendation quality and is then deleted automatically. If a member withdraws, it is also destroyed when the same period expires.

(6) Retention under relevant laws

| Item | Retention period | Legal basis |
|---|---|---|
| Access log records | 3 months | Protection of Communications Secrets Act |
| Records confirming the use and provision of personal location information | 1 year | Act on the Protection and Use of Location Information |

(7) Rights infringement report information

| Item | Retention |
|---|---|
| Email address | Destroyed without delay once the result of handling is notified |
| Explanation of the infringement, copies of attached documents, copy of the reported review at the time of the report | Destroyed without delay once handling of the report is complete |
| Emails replying with the result of handling | Kept only in the operator's email inbox for 3 months after the reply and then destroyed |

To verify that measures were taken, the reported review, the details of the measure and the dates and times of receipt and measure are preserved. These records do not contain information that can identify the user who filed the report.

## Article 5 (Provision of Personal Information to Third Parties)

(1) The Company processes members' personal information only within the scope specified in this Policy and does not process it beyond its original scope or provide it to third parties without the member's prior consent.
