Please note that some jurisdictions do not allow the above warranty limitations, so these limitations depend on where you live and may not apply to you.

The App or Services may allow you to access third-party websites or services, and we provide access only as a convenience and are not responsible for any content, products, or services available through these websites or resources. You acknowledge sole responsibility for, and assume all risks arising from, your use of any such third-party websites or services.

8. Limitation of Liability; Indemnification

The Company, its affiliates and subsidiaries, and, as applicable, its and their licensors will not be responsible for any damage or loss caused to you where such damage or loss is not reasonably foreseeable to you and us when you use the App, the Documentation or Services, including where the damage or loss results from our breach of these Terms.

The App, the Documentation or Services may be changed or suspended temporarily and without notice for any reason, including where we decide to end the App, the Documentation or Service (in whole or in part), in the case of system failure, maintenance or repair, or for reasons beyond our reasonable control.

11. Grievance Handling and Dispute Resolution; Arbitration Agreement

  1. If a dispute arises between you and Company, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost-effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. Before taking any formal action, you agree to first contact us in writing and provide a description of your dispute, all relevant documents, and your proposed resolution. If we are unable to resolve your dispute within thirty (30) days of your notice to us, you agree to submit your dispute to binding arbitration or small claims court as set forth in this Section. Please forward your dispute to: Thingsflow Inc., Attn. Legal Department, 51, Seongsui-ro 20-gil, Seongdong-gu, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
  2. Subject to subsection (a) above, any disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Korea, and shall be finally settled by confidential arbitration by the Korean Commercial Arbitration Board (“KCAB”) in accordance with the International Arbitration Rules of the KCAB. The number of arbitrators shall be one. The seat, or legal place, of arbitral proceedings shall be Seoul, the Republic of Korea. The language to be used in the arbitral proceedings shall be English. In any action or suit to enforce any right or remedy under these Terms, to interpret any provisions of these Terms, or to settle a dispute between you and the Company, the prevailing party will be entitled to recover its costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses. ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS MEANS THAT YOU WILL NOT HAVE, AND YOU HEREBY WAIVE, THE RIGHT FOR A JUDGE OR JURY TO DECIDE YOUR CLAIMS, AND THAT YOU MAY NOT PROCEED IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE CAPACITY. Other rights that you and we would otherwise have in court will not be available or will be more limited in arbitration, including discovery and appeal rights. If a dispute arises between Company and the User, Company shall faithfully demonstrate the measures taken in respect of the User, including any restrictions of usage, and will comply with result of any arbitration decision.
  3. The Company has the sole discretion on whether to, and to what extent to, but no obligation to, enforce any rights of Company or take any actions as stated in these Terms.
  4. This agreement to arbitrate disputes is intended to encompass all disputes or claims arising out of your relationship with Company, including our respective subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors in interest, successors, licensors, and assigns, arising out of or relating to the App, the Documentation or Services (whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal or equitable theory).

YOU AND COMPANY AGREE THAT ANY CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE APP MUST COMMENCE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION ACCRUES. OTHERWISE, SUCH CAUSE OF ACTION IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

12. Inadequacy of damages

Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that Company may have, you acknowledge and agree that compensation by way of damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of these Terms by you, because Company would suffer irreparable losses if you breach these Terms. Accordingly, you agree that Company and, as applicable, its licensors shall be entitled to the remedies of an injunction, specific performance or any other equitable remedy, in addition to any other remedies available to it under the applicable law. For the avoidance of doubt, Company and, as applicable, its licensors shall be entitled to an injunction, specific performance or any other equitable remedy without bond, other security or proof of losses.

13. Governing Law and Disputes

If a dispute arises between you and Company, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost-effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. These Terms shall be interpreted and governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea. All lawsuits related to these Terms are subject to the jurisdiction of the courts in Korea pursuant to relevant laws such as the Code of Civil Procedure. Other laws may apply if you use the App and Services outside of the Republic of Korea. In such event, the applicable local laws shall only affect these Terms to the extent required by the applicable jurisdiction, and these Terms shall be construed as to make their terms and conditions as effective as possible. You must comply with all local laws to the extent that applicable local law applies.

14. Class Action Waiver

To the extent that it is permissible under the applicable law, consistent with the foregoing arbitration agreement, you agree not to participate in, including but not limited to, a class or representative action, private attorney general action, or collective arbitration related to the App, the Documentation or Services or these Terms. You also agree not to seek to combine any action or arbitration related to the App, the Documentation or Services or these Terms with any other action or arbitration without the consent of all parties to these Terms and all other actions or arbitrations.

15. Copyright Notice
