1.1 These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of SPI Global, available at global.seoulpi.io, and any related services we provide (together, the "Service"). The Service is operated by Seoul Property Insight Corp. ("SPI," "we," "us," or "our"), a company organized under the laws of the Republic of Korea.

2.2 You must register with a business email address issued by your organization. We do not accept personal webmail addresses (such as Gmail or Outlook.com) or disposable email addresses.

2.4 You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service.
2.5 We may decline or cancel a registration if we reasonably believe that the information provided is inaccurate, that you do not meet these eligibility requirements, or that your account was previously suspended for a breach of these Terms.

4. Access Levels and Fees
4.1 The Service offers different levels of access. Basic access is available when you complete registration. Extended access may be made available when you submit the Unlock Extended Access form. Each level may differ in the number of articles and reports you can read each day, the parts of the Deal List you can view, and the availability of features such as search.
4.2 We determine the scope, limits and features of each access level, and we may change them at any time. We may not display usage limits or your remaining usage within the Service.
4.3 Submitting the Unlock Extended Access form does not create any payment obligation, purchase commitment or binding offer by either party. By submitting the form, you ask us to contact you about your request, and you agree that we may use the information you provide to respond to you and to discuss SPI's subscription offerings. We may grant, modify or withdraw Extended access at our discretion.
4.4 The Service is currently provided free of charge. If we introduce paid plans in the future, we will notify you in advance, and we will not charge you any fees without your separate agreement.
5. Content, Translations and Data
5.1 AI-assisted translation. Most content on the Service is originally written in Korean and translated into English using artificial intelligence, with limited human review. Explanatory notes, previews and other supplementary text may also be generated by artificial intelligence. Translations and generated text may contain errors, omissions or inaccuracies. The Korean original published by SPI is the authoritative version of each article.
5.2 Deal List and market data. Deal List entries and other market data are compiled from public filings, industry sources and our own reporting. They may be incomplete, may not reflect the latest status of a transaction, and may be updated or removed without notice.
5.3 No investment advice. The Service is provided for general information only. Nothing on the Service constitutes investment, legal, tax, accounting or other professional advice, or an offer or solicitation to buy or sell any asset, security or interest. You are solely responsible for your own investment decisions and should obtain independent advice where appropriate. SPI is not responsible for any loss or damage arising from any decision you make, or action you take, in reliance on the Service or its content.
