Please review these Terms carefully before using the Services. We may change the Terms at any time in our sole discretion consistent with applicable law. We will notify you (including by posting the updated Terms on the Services) of changes to these Terms. By continuing to use the Services, you accept such changes to the Terms, which will take effect at the time they are posted or as otherwise required by applicable law.



At CLESSON, we respect the privacy of our users. For details please see our Privacy Policy. By using the Service, you consent to our collection and use of personal data as outlined therein.

  1. DISPUTE RESOLUTION

This Section X does not apply to residents of Japan, the European Union, or the European Economic Area.

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS.BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO LITIGATE DISPUTES THROUGH A COURT AND TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE YOUR CASE.

In order to expedite and control the cost of disputes, CLESSON and you both agree that any legal or equitable claim, dispute, action or proceeding arising from or related to the Services (“Dispute”) will be resolved as follows to the fullest extent permitted by law:

    1. Notice of Dispute. In the event of a Dispute, you or we must give the other a Notice of Dispute, which is a written statement that sets forth the name, address, and contact information of the party giving it, the facts giving rise to the Dispute, and a proposed solution. You must send any Notice of Dispute by mail and email to us at the mailing and email addresses provided in the Contact Us section. We will send any Notice of Dispute to you by mail to your address if we have it, or otherwise to your email address.

    2. Small Claims Court. You may choose to litigate any Dispute in small claims court (or the equivalent) in the Forum specified in Section IX, if the Dispute meets all the requirements to be heard in small claims court.

    3. Binding Arbitration. If the Dispute is not resolved in small claims court, any other effort to resolve the Dispute will be conducted exclusively by binding arbitration as described in this section. You are giving up the right to litigate (or participate in as a party or class member) all Disputes in court before a judge or jury. Instead, all Disputes will be resolved before a neutral arbitrator, whose decision will be final except for a limited right of appeal under the Federal Arbitration Act or any other applicable law. Any court with jurisdiction over the parties may enforce the arbitrator’s award.

    4. Exceptions to Arbitration. You and CLESSON agree that the following Disputes are not subject to the above provisions concerning binding arbitration:

  • Any Disputes seeking to enforce or protect, or concerning the validity of, any of your or CLESSON’s intellectual property rights.

  • Any claim for injunctive relief.

  • Any claim you are authorized to bring to the attention of any federal, state, or local government agencies that can, if the law allows, permit those authorities to seek relief from us on your behalf.

    1. Class Action Waiver. Any proceedings to resolve or litigate any Dispute in any forum will be conducted solely on an individual basis. Neither you nor we will seek to have any Dispute heard as a class action or in any other proceeding in which either party acts or proposes to act in a representative capacity. No arbitration or proceeding will be combined with another without the prior written consent of all parties to all affected arbitrations or proceedings.

    2. Arbitration Procedures. Any arbitration will be conducted by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Service (“JAMS”) under the applicable Consumer or Commercial Arbitration Rules in effect at the time the Dispute is filed. If JAMS is unavailable or unable to conduct an arbitration of the Dispute, an alternative arbitration service provider will be mutually agreed upon by both parties. You may request a telephonic or in-person hearing by following the JAMS rules. In a dispute involving $10,000 or less, any hearing will be telephonic unless the arbitrator finds good cause to hold an in-person hearing instead. The arbitrator may award the same damages to you individually as a court could. The arbitrator may award relief only to you individually, and only to the extent required to satisfy your individual claim.

    3. Arbitrator’s Jurisdiction. The arbitrator shall have the power to rule on his or her own jurisdiction, including any objections with respect to the existence, scope, or validity of the arbitration agreement or to the arbitrability of any claim or counterclaim.

    4. Arbitration Fees. Whoever files the arbitration pays the initial filing fee. If we file, we pay. If you file, you pay unless you get a fee waiver under the applicable arbitration rules. All other fees will be allocated as provided by the rules of the arbitration firm and applicable law. Each party will bear the expense of that party’s attorneys, experts, and witnesses, and other expenses, regardless of which party prevails, but a party may recover any or all expenses from another party if the arbitrator, applying applicable law, so determines.

    5. Location of Arbitration. You agree that the arbitration will occur in the following location:

Service Provider.

Arbitration Forum

Clesson Co., Ltd.

A reasonable location in South Korea, as agreed to by both parties, or, if necessary, as determined by the arbitrator.



    1. Disputes Must Be Filed Within One Year. To the extent permitted by law, any Dispute under this agreement must be filed within one year in small claims court or in an arbitration proceeding. The one-year period begins when the Dispute or Notice of Dispute first could be filed. If a Dispute isn’t filed within one year, it’s permanently barred.

    2. Temporary Injunctive Relief. Before the appointment of an arbitrator, either party may seek temporary injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction without waiving its right to arbitration.

If this agreement to arbitrate is found to be illegal or unenforceable, the parties agree to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law that any Dispute relating to your use of the Services or these Terms shall be commenced and heard in accordance with Section IX.

With respect to any disputes or claims not subject to arbitration, as set forth in Section 10 above, you and CLESSON agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of courts located within Seoul, Korea.

YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT THE ABOVE DISPUTE PROCEDURES SHALL BE YOUR SOLE REMEDY IN THE EVENT OF DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND CLESSON REGARDING ANY ASPECT OF THE SERVICE (INCLUDING THE ENROLMENT PROCESS) AND THAT YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO LEAD OR PARTICIPATE IN A LAWSUIT INVOLVING OTHER PERSONS, SUCH AS A CLASS ACTION.
