Law firm Veat reviewed the mobile game service terms and conditions and location-based service terms and conditions at the request of A Game, a game developer, and provided detailed guidance on the approval process.
A Game, a game developer, requested a mobile game service terms and conditions and location-based service terms and conditions review during the launch of its new mobile game and raised questions regarding implementation of the terms and conditions and approval.
Law firm Veat conducted legal review of the mobile game service terms and conditions and location-based service terms and conditions in accordance with the “Act on the Regulation of Contracts” (Contract Act) and the “Act on the Protection of Personal Information and Utilization of Location Information” (Location Information Act), and provided guidance on the publication time point and the method of terms and conditions implementation. In particular, the approval method was recommended to be implemented in a way that allows for the user’s autonomous choice, so that it would not involve comprehensive consent, and avoiding encompassing consent , to ensure the user’s autonomy and consent.
According to the Broadcasting Communication Committee and the Korea Internet & Information Agency, under the “Act on Promotion of Information and Communications Network Utilization and Protection of Information” (Information Network Act), in the case of advertising marketing consent, a explicit pre-advertising information consent procedure is required.
Law firm Veat helps customer companies to prepare appropriate service terms and conditions, and assists in the preparation of service terms and conditions, location-based service terms and conditions, and personal information processing policies to ensure stable service operation.
