Terms of Service
Revised policy · Announced: 10/09/2026, 17:45:00 · Effective: 10/09/2026, 18:00:00 (Korea time)
Previous policy (Korean) 1 September 2026Changes to account deletion and recovery
The revisions below apply from the effective time shown above. The previous policy applies before that time. Publication alone does not activate account features or count as consent to retain recovery data. The account screen explains whether each feature is available.
- Recovery information is retained for 3 months only if you separately opt in when requesting account deletion.
- If you do not consent, request erasure or reach the end of the retention period, your account information becomes subject to erasure. Report and audit work records with personal information removed are retained.
- The purpose and end-of-retention procedure for encrypted records kept in Korea to prevent deleted accounts from reappearing are explained below.
Review feature policy
Review policy · Announced and effective: 12/09/2026, 18:30:00 (Korea time)
- Location, accuracy and measurement time are checked temporarily so that signed-in users can write reviews only when near the restroom.
- Removing author information disconnects the author and changes the displayed name to “Anonymous”. Ratings and free-text comments remain as service information.
- Review availability is controlled by separate server safety settings. Publishing this policy does not automatically activate reviews.
Profile photo storage policy
Profile photo policy · Announced and effective: 15/09/2026, 04:30:00 (Korea time)
- Kakao photos optionally provided at sign-up, or photos uploaded by users, are converted to a small WebP image and stored in private Cloudflare R2 storage in the United States.
- If you agree to provide your Kakao photo or upload a photo yourself, it is shown as your author photo on public reviews. You can turn this off at any time in My page.
- Public photos may be temporarily cached on Cloudflare CDN for up to 5 minutes for faster display. When a photo is made private, replaced or deleted, public access is blocked and CDN cache deletion is requested.
- You can use account features with the default avatar without providing a profile photo. Publishing this policy does not automatically activate the photo feature.
1. Purpose
These terms set out the conditions for using public restroom search, social login and information reporting provided by Geupddong, an individually operated service.
2. Confirmation of age 14 or older
Geupddong account features are available only to people aged 14 or older. By continuing with sign-up, you confirm that you are at least 14. Children under 14 may browse the map and restroom information without logging in, but may not sign up, log in, submit reports or write reviews.
3. Accounts and social login
Your account is activated after verification with Google or Kakao and agreement to the required terms. You must keep your account secure and must not use another person’s account. If you agree to provide your Kakao profile photo or upload one yourself, it is displayed as your author photo on public reviews. You can turn this off at any time in My page.
4. Reports, reviews and content
You must report factual information, such as restroom locations and opening hours, and write reviews based on your actual experience. Reports are approved or rejected after administrator review and may be edited or not applied to maintain service quality and safety.
Do not include personal information, such as your own or another person’s real name, phone number or email address, in reviews. You may write one review per restroom every 24 hours, measured from the time of writing. You may edit a review or remove its author link yourself within 7 days of writing it. Removing the author link changes the name to “Anonymous” and removes the review from My reviews, but does not delete the rating, cleanliness score, toilet-paper availability, waiting time or written comment. You cannot subsequently edit it yourself or reconnect it to your account.
Reviews involving infringement of rights, exposure of personal information or matters requiring action under applicable law may be separately edited or deleted. To request action concerning personal information, the author should provide the privacy contact with information identifying the review and the relevant part.
5. Limitations of service information
Information is based on public data and user reports. Actual availability, location and facility conditions may differ. In urgent situations, check on-site guidance and information from the relevant authorities first.
6. Restrictions and account deletion
Use may be restricted if service disruption, false reports or infringement of rights is confirmed. You may request account deletion from the account screen; service access and login sessions stop immediately. Only if you separately consent to 3 months of recovery retention can your account and report links be restored within that period, after verification with the same social account and explicit confirmation of recovery. Administrator permissions are not automatically restored. Without consent, or after the retention period expires, recovery is blocked and account information and member links in reports become subject to erasure. Pending requests are distinguished from completed erasure in the service database. Signing up after erasure creates a new account. Restroom information already applied from reports is retained.
7. Changes to these terms
Important changes will be announced on the service before they take effect. We may ask you to agree again to revised required terms.
