POSTYPE cannot provide any assistance for damages caused by account trading or sharing.
Recently, the following cases related to trading POSTYPE accounts have been occurring frequently.
- Requests for leniency regarding account suspension and permanent re-registration bans imposed due to account trading
- Cases where the account seller disappears after taking the money
- Cases where the account seller changes the password in a short time to block the buyer’s access
- Cases where the account seller threatens the buyer with false claims, such as POSTYPE demanding a penalty
- Cases where, due to technical measures that prevent simultaneous account use, either the seller or buyer cannot properly use the service
Account trading is a violation of the Terms of Service and current laws. All responsibility for account trading lies with the parties who engage in these illegal acts, and compensation for related damages is not possible. Under no circumstances does POSTYPE provide judicial or policy support to users who have traded accounts. Leniency regarding sanctions is also not possible.
Under the Terms of Service and applicable laws, members may not sell, purchase, rent, transfer, or share POSTYPE accounts. In particular, providing an account that has been verified as an adult through identity verification to someone who has not been verified as an adult constitutes a serious violation of related laws, including Article 16 of the Youth Protection Act and Article 42-2 of the Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Information Protection.
If such malicious behavior continues, in order to protect creators’ creative activities, we will take firm measures against not only sellers but also buyers and lessors, including criminal complaints and civil claims for damages pursuant to Article 314 of the Criminal Act and Article 6(3) of the Electronic Financial Transactions Act. All responsibility for legal penalties or financial damages arising from poor account management or unauthorized use rests entirely with the parties involved.
POSTYPE continuously monitors and sanctions illegal trading activities and collects evidence. If an account is accessed from an abnormally large number of devices or accessed simultaneously from distant locations, it may be deemed a suspicious account. In addition, to prevent unauthorized use, POSTYPE limits the number of simultaneous logins per account, so please keep this in mind when using the service.
For users found to have engaged in suspicious activities, we take measures such as account lock, re-verification of identity, cancellation of identity verification, and permanent suspension of service use. Accounts that are permanently suspended cannot access any account history, including purchased items, My Channels, and posts, cannot receive refunds for remaining points, cannot receive payouts, and cannot be restored for any reason, in accordance with the Terms of Service.
The valid period of identity verification is 1 year, and there is no such thing as an identity-verified account that can be used permanently. Your account may be sanctioned and its use suspended at any time. Also note that if you share your account with others, your identity verification information such as your real name and date of birth may be exposed and misused, so please be careful.
