Addenda

This Privacy Policy takes effect on July 30, 2026. The latest amendment takes effect on August 5, 2026.

Amendment history: August 5, 2026 — added web analytics (Google Analytics) to the entrusted tasks of Google LLC in the Section 5 table, and reflected analytics cookies and the opt-out method in the Section 1 automatically-collected items and the Section 8 cookie notice.

Amendment history: August 6, 2026 — added an entrusted party to the Section 5 table (Armitage Labs OÜ, content moderation).

Amendment history: August 10, 2026 — clarified the entrusted tasks of Google LLC in the Section 5 table to reflect actual processing (AI prompt assembly, reference-image analysis, and caption generation); notice given on August 3, 2026.

Amendment history: August 10, 2026 — removed Armitage Labs OÜ (content moderation) from the Section 5 table (the entrustment ended and the pre-screening of prompt text and request identifiers, together with the related cross-border transfer, ceased; applied immediately as a change not unfavorable to Users).

Amendment history: August 11, 2026 — added an entrusted party to the Section 5 table (Dodo Payments Inc., payment processing and settlement agency services) and added a notice of overseas transfer for payment. As providing a payment method is essential to performing the service agreement and the personal-information items transferred are the same in scope as those for the existing payment entrustment (Polar Software, Inc.), the change takes effect the same day. The existing entrustment to Polar Software, Inc. remains until the processing of in-progress subscriptions ends.

Amendment history: August 24, 2026 — specified the acquisition analytics cookie (lilit_attr) and the retention of sign-up acquisition information in the Section 1 automatically-collected items and the Section 8 cookie notice (a clarification of processing already within the existing ‘service usage records / usage-statistics analysis’ category — applied immediately as a change not unfavorable to Users; refusal follows the existing analytics-cookie opt-out setting).

Amendment history: September 11, 2026 — specified the country of access (a country code estimated from the access IP address already collected) in the Section 1 automatically-collected items (a clarification of processing already within the existing ‘access IP address / service usage records / usage-statistics analysis’ category — applied immediately as a change not unfavorable to Users; used only for statistics and operations, never to decide eligibility or pricing).

Amendment history: announced August 24, 2026 — added a ‘generation request records (internal policy)’ item to the Section 3 retention periods (retention of prompts and failure reasons for 30 days from account deletion). As a change that may be unfavorable to Users, it is announced 30 days in advance pursuant to Section 15 and takes effect on October 1, 2026. It does not apply to accounts deleted before the effective date.

Amendment history: September 22, 2026 — marked the Polar Software, Inc. entry in the Section 5 table as an ended entrustment (August 31, 2026) and corrected the transferee in the notice of overseas transfer for payment to Dodo Payments Inc. Since the transition to Dodo Payments Inc. on August 11, 2026, no new payments have been processed and no personal information has been transferred through Polar, and the entrustment ended on August 31, 2026 when the processing of the remaining subscriptions ended. Polar continues to hold the payment records of payments made up to July 31, 2026 for refund and dispute handling and for statutory retention obligations, and the table now states that limited scope. As a change that narrows the scope of personal information transferred, it is not unfavorable to Users and is applied immediately.

Amendment history: October 1, 2026 — in the Section 5 table, added content-policy pre-screening of user-entered prompts (in operation since August 10, 2026) to the entrusted tasks of Google LLC, and, for database backups, added GitHub, Inc. (execution of backup jobs) and added storage of encrypted database backup files to the entrusted tasks of Cloudflare, Inc. (in operation since September 28, 2026); corrected the access-log item in Section 12 to the scope actually applied. As these supplement and correct the description of processing already in operation, they are applied immediately.

Amendment history: October 1, 2026 — removed the item ‘Communication confirmation data: 12 months (Protection of Communications Secrets Act)’ from the Section 3 retention list to match actual practice. As a correction of the description that does not expand the scope or period of information retained, it is not unfavorable to Users and is applied immediately.

Amendment history: October 8, 2026 — changed the email address for exercising rights (Section 7) and for the Personal Information Protection Officer (Section 9) to hello@lilit.kr. As this changes only the contact address and requests sent to the previous address (contact@eclabs.kr) continue to be received, it is not unfavorable to Users and is applied immediately.
