Article 6 (Non-commercial Games)

1. The Service is a place to share games made by individuals for non-commercial purposes. This is a condition for sharing games that have not received a rating under the Korean Game Industry Promotion Act.

Article 7 (Rights and Responsibility for Content)

1. Copyright and other rights in Content, and responsibility for it, belong to the member who posted it.

2. Members warrant that they have the right to post their Content and that it does not infringe others' copyright, trademarks, portrait rights or other rights, or violate any law. This also applies to games made with AI tools.

3. The Operator has no obligation to review Content before it is posted.

4. If a third party raises a claim or lawsuit against the Operator because of Content, the member who posted it must resolve it at their own responsibility and cost and compensate the Operator's losses, except to the extent caused by the Operator's intent or negligence.

Article 8 (License to Content)

1. Members grant the Operator a free, non-exclusive right to store, copy, transmit and display their Content to operate and introduce the Service, including showing titles, descriptions and thumbnails in search results and link previews.

2. This license ends when the member takes the Content down. Link previews and search results that have already spread may take time to disappear.

3. If a member chooses to keep their Content when deleting their account, the license continues while the Content remains on the Service.

4. The Operator does not take ownership of any Content.

Members must not:

• post games containing malware, unauthorized cryptocurrency mining, or code that secretly collects personal information
• deceive users, for example with fake login screens or payment prompts
• impersonate another person or organization
• post ads or spam that are not games, or post the same Content repeatedly
• interfere with the Service or try to bypass its security
• violate Article 6

Article 10 (Hiding Content and Restricting Use)

Article 12 (Account Deletion)

1. Members may delete their account at any time in profile settings.

2. Deleting an account removes the account, profile, comments, likes and recently viewed games.

3. When deleting their account, members choose whether to keep or delete their posted games. Kept games show "Deleted user" as the creator; deleted games are removed together with their files.

4. Kept games are no longer linked to the deleted account, so the member cannot edit or take them down. To request deletion, write to duswl4353@naver.com; the Operator will act once it can confirm the requester posted the game.

Article 13 (Limitation of Liability)

1. Except in cases of intent or gross negligence, the Operator is not liable for:
