3. Infringing on the Company's intellectual property rights
4. Copying, distributing, or commercially using information obtained through the Services without the Company's consent

Article 8 (Service Usage Classification and Protection)
1. The Company hopes all users find inspiration in life through our Services. Personal use — such as sharing with family and friends, gifting printed reports, or keeping them for personal reference — is actively encouraged and has no restrictions whatsoever.
2. However, as our Services are provided as a personal plan, those who wish to use them for commercial purposes — such as professional consulting or corporate marketing tools — must first consult with the Company and obtain a business license.
3. Commercial use without prior agreement (e.g., reselling generated content for profit) is considered detrimental to normal service operations. In such cases, to protect the Service and ensure a fair usage environment, a standard business licensing fee (the greater of KRW 5,000,000 or 10 times the revenue obtained through the unauthorized use) may be retroactively charged, and service access may be restricted.
4. Additionally, for each individual piece of content (reports, consultation results, etc.) generated during the unauthorized use, a business usage fee of at least KRW 50,000 per item shall be retroactively applied.
5. The above business licensing fees do not affect the Company's right to claim actual damages. The Company may separately claim all direct and indirect damages arising from the unauthorized use, including investigation and legal costs.
6. To protect the service environment for good-faith users, the Company may monitor abnormal usage patterns. If the use of automated tools or abnormal scripts is detected, access to the Service may be restricted. Specific detection criteria and algorithms are not disclosed for security purposes.
7. If abnormal use is detected, the Company will provide the user with an opportunity to explain, and restrictions may be lifted based on the outcome of that review.
Article 9 (Company Obligations)
1. The Company complies with applicable laws and these Terms, and strives to provide continuous and stable Services.
2. The Company establishes security systems to protect user personal information and publishes and adheres to its Privacy Policy.
3. The Company processes user feedback and complaints deemed legitimate regarding Service usage.
Article 10 (Disclaimer)
1. Our Services provide digital content as reference material for insights and do not replace medical, legal, financial, or psychological counseling.
2. Users are solely responsible for all decisions made based on Service content and their outcomes.
3. The Company is not liable for service interruptions due to force majeure events, war, telecommunications provider outages, or other unavoidable circumstances.
4. The Company is not liable for service disruptions caused by user fault.
5. The Company is not liable for any expected profits or losses users may experience from using the Services.
6. Users are responsible for the accuracy of the country of residence, nationality, and tax information entered during affiliate program settlement. The Company is not liable for incorrect tax rate application or resulting tax losses caused by inaccurate information provided by the user.
Article 11 (Traditional Canon Heritage and Intellectual Property)
1. Our Services respect the interpretation systems of the classical texts of Eastern metaphysics and do not arbitrarily distort their core logic. We affirm that the classical texts and their scholarly principles are a shared heritage of humanity.
2. However, 1fate.ai's proprietary algorithm design — which computes the vast logic of these classics in real time — along with its AI context engine that deepens interpretation, and the original composition and UI/UX of the visualized reports, constitute the Company's unique intellectual property.
3. Accordingly, the reports users receive are the result of meticulously digitizing orthodox Myeongli through 1fate.ai's technology. Unauthorized reproduction or commercial appropriation of this service system is prohibited.
4. All other intellectual property rights for content included in the Services (text, images, graphics, logos, software, etc.) belong to the Company.
5. Users may only use purchased digital content for personal purposes and may not copy, transmit, distribute, broadcast, or allow third parties to use it without the Company's prior written consent.
