Law firm Veat provided in-depth legal advice regarding changes to the terms of service, as requested by data solution company A.
Law firm Veat’s personal information protection team, in accordance with the “Consumer Protection Act on Sales Transactions Etc.” (e-Commerce Act), as content that must be stated on the website is defined, therefore, thoroughly analyzed these legal requirements and guided the parties on matters that must be clearly explained.
In particular, when changing the terms of service, since invalid clauses that unfairly disadvantage users are void, the legal team guided the parties on matters that do not infringe on user rights and establish fair and clear terms of service.
A received a cease-and-desist order from the Fair Trade Commission regarding the company’s liability provisions. Law firm Veat’s personal information protection team provided, through careful consideration of the Fair Trade Commission’s cease-and-desist order, fair and legally valid liability provisions for both the company and the users.
Furthermore, A plans to provide services for a fee, and the personal information protection team included provisions regarding the revocation of consent and its effects, and added provisions specifying the company’s disciplinary measures in the event that a user violates the rules and providing an opportunity for appeal or correction. Through this, it ensured to minimize disputes between the company and users and protect user rights in line with the Fair Trade Commission’s guidelines.
