< Terms Regarding Unauthorized Use >
Unauthorized use refers to acts that violate copyrights, reproduction rights, and transmission rights, such as recording, capturing, sharing IDs,
unauthorized copying of courses, or sharing courses with third parties. Unauthorized use is prohibited, blocked, and identified
in accordance with the following provisions.
Article 13 [Prohibition and Blocking of Unauthorized Use]
① The Company considers the following cases to be unauthorized use.
1. Where simultaneous access occurs from two or more PCs using one ID.
2. Where the Member allows another person to use their ID or services such as Content.
3. Where the Member sells, rents, or transfers their ID or Content to another person, or advertises such acts.
4. Where the Member runs a copying program while using the Services, or records or attempts to record the Services.
5. Where the Member accesses and watches through remote software or a virtual machine.
6. Where relatively very high traffic and recording patterns occur, causing concern that recording may be taking place through external devices.
7. In the case of companies or public institutions rather than individuals, proof documents must be submitted, such as a business registration certificate,
or, in the case of a school, documents proving the relevant school.
② If an unauthorized user under the preceding paragraph is discovered, the Company may take the following measures.
1. The Company may issue a warning to the relevant Member, suspend service use for 15 to 30 days, and grant a period for explanation.
If no clear explanation or notification is provided despite the explanation period, the Member may be expelled without refund.
2. Based on materials such as IP information collected and verified during the Member’s use of the Services, the Company may classify and confirm
unauthorized use through server log patterns and capture logs.
3. If the Member runs a copying program while using the Services or accesses the Services simultaneously with the same ID,
the Company may forcibly terminate access to the Services.
③ A Member may not request an extension of the service use period on the grounds of the measures under Paragraph 2, Subparagraph 2.
④ If a Member objects to the measures under Paragraph 2 of this Article, the Member may explain the relevant facts to the Company
and may receive separate measures regarding use accordingly.
⑤ Method of Identifying and Blocking Unauthorized Use
1. Based on materials such as IP information collected and verified during the Member’s use of the Services, the Company classifies and confirms
unauthorized use through server log patterns and capture logs.
2. If the Member runs a copying program while using the Services or accesses the Services simultaneously with the same ID,
the Company forcibly terminates access to the Services.
3. To confirm unauthorized use by Members, the Company identifies unauthorized Members based on the Aqua Player collection details
specified in the Privacy Policy.
4. Server logs and Aqua Player collection details are used only for confirming unauthorized use and are never used
for any other purpose.
⑥ Procedure in Case of Unauthorized Use
1. [First Detection] The unauthorized use shall be announced through a pop-up window, and the Company may ask the Member about the reason for registration, Content use,
and whether unauthorized use occurred.
1-1. If a video capture attempt is made three or more times, a first warning is applied, and the account may be suspended for 15 to 30 days
depending on severity.
1-2. If simultaneous access with the same ID occurs four or more times within two weeks, a first warning, meaning a 15-day account suspension, is applied.
1-3. If recorded file records are confirmed after a recording attempt, the account shall be permanently suspended and withdrawn without refund.
1-4. In the case of unauthorized use caused by searching, viewing, or exploring recording methods using mobile phones or external devices,
the account shall be permanently suspended and withdrawn without refund, regardless of severity.
* Forced termination caused by false detection is excluded from capture attempts. For example, termination during driver installation.
2. [Second Detection] If the same matter is detected a second time, membership shall be terminated without refund.
2-1. If leaked Content is confirmed, legal action, including civil and criminal complaints, may be taken.
2-2. Even if another ID is created after use restrictions are applied, the history and result of the use restriction shall be transferred
to the newly created ID.
2-3. In the case of unauthorized use caused by searching, viewing, or exploring recording methods using mobile phones or external devices,
the account shall be permanently suspended and withdrawn without refund, regardless of severity.
3. Distribution of Content [Still Images]
3-1. [First Warning] Saving a course in the form of still images and uploading it to spaces where many people can view it,
such as blogs, cafés, or social media, violates copyright law and results in a first warning, meaning a 15-day account suspension.
3-2. [Second Warning] If the same matter is detected again, the account shall be suspended for 30 days.
3-3. [Third Warning] The account shall be permanently suspended without refund, and legal action may be taken for copyright infringement.
4. Distribution of Content [Video]
4-1. [First Warning] If a course is distributed in video form, legal action, civil and criminal, shall be taken for copyright infringement
and violation of reproduction rights, transmission rights, and related rights.
Examples of distribution include torrent, torrent magnet address, URL, P2P, NateOn, and any other program with transmission functions.
*. After the first warning, the Member must submit an agreement for prevention of unauthorized use. If the Member does not submit it,
the Member shall be deemed not to have agreed, and the account use restriction shall remain in effect. If the agreement is not submitted for 45 days, permanent suspension shall be applied.
However, in the case of video distribution, the account shall be permanently suspended regardless of the first warning or submission of the agreement.
* Even if the account is suspended, the course access period shall not be changed. However, depending on the extent of the capture-related matter and the contents of the agreement,
the Company may review whether the suspended account can be restored for normal use.
If the Company’s fault is acknowledged, the course period shall be extended by the period of suspension.
* To prevent unauthorized use by other Members, the Company may disclose the unauthorized user’s ID and name on the website notices
in a wildcard-masked form. Example: cgen***, Hong Gil*.
* If a Member lends their ID to another person and that person attempts or is caught attempting capture,
the registered owner of the ID shall be fully responsible.
(Under Article 13, Paragraph 1, lending an ID is considered unauthorized use.)
5. Notice upon Release from Unauthorized-Use Restrictions
When service restrictions related to unauthorized use are lifted, applications for new courses may be restricted depending on the severity of the unauthorized use.
