The Company shall not be liable for any damages incurred by Users in connection with the Service. However, if the contract between the Company and the User concerning the Service (including these Terms) constitutes a consumer contract under the Consumer Contract Act, this disclaimer shall not apply.

The Company shall not be responsible for any transactions, communications, or disputes arising between a User and another User or third party in relation to the Service.

The Company may change the content of the Service or discontinue providing the Service without notifying Users, and shall not be liable for any damage incurred by Users as a result.

The Company may amend these Terms at any time without notifying Users when it deems necessary. If a User begins using the Service after such amendment, the User shall be deemed to have agreed to the amended Terms.

The Company shall appropriately handle personal information obtained through the use of the Service in accordance with the Company's "Privacy Policy."

Users may not assign or transfer their contractual status under the user agreement or their rights or obligations under these Terms to any third party, nor provide them as security, without the prior written consent of the Company.
