Since such outputs are not, by themselves, information that identifies an individual, they are not subject to the personal information processing covered by this Policy. However, where Estimation Outputs are processed by the Company in a form that, in combination with the User's inputs or account identifiers, can identify an individual, this Policy shall apply.

End-User Data within Hosted Applications
With respect to the personal information of End-Users collected and processed through applications deployed via GNOM Studio, the User (Member) operating such application is the data controller under PIPA, and the Company is the infrastructure provider (e.g., processor or storage operator). The User shall separately prepare and post a privacy policy for such End-Users.
4. Payment Information (Required for paid features)
GNOM currently offers only the One-time Purchase method. Payment is processed via credit card through the Company's designated payment integration solution (PortOne, operated by Korea PortOne Co., Ltd.) and routed to an electronic financial business entity (Toss Payments Co., Ltd.).
- Payment instrument information (card issuer, partially masked card number), payment date and amount, payment ID (transaction ID)
- Information necessary for refund processing
- Under Article 33(2) and Article 46 of the Value-Added Tax Act of Korea, a credit card sales slip issued for card payment substitutes for a tax invoice. Business Users may claim the input VAT deduction with such sales slip. Accordingly, a separate tax invoice will not be issued for card payments
- Business Users requiring a tax invoice must submit a pre-payment request to billing@geniein.com, attaching a copy of the business registration certificate and the issuing information (business name, registration number, representative name, address, and contact email). In such case, payment will be made by bank transfer instead of card, and an electronic tax invoice will be issued
- Post-payment requests for tax invoice issuance may not be accepted, as the previously issued card sales slip substitutes for a tax invoice, and retroactive issuance may result in double revenue recognition
- The Company does not store full card numbers, CVCs, expiration dates, passwords, or other payment authentication information. Such information is processed and stored by the payment integration solution (PortOne) and the electronic financial business entity (Toss Payments)
