Given that K-POP fansign events (hereinafter referred to as "Events") involve artist schedules, supply chain coordination, event venues, and strict quotas, your purchase of related merchandise or participation in events constitutes acknowledgment and agreement to the following terms.
-
10.1 Eligibility Selection and Quota Allocation

-
10.2.4 Members authorize necessary disclosure of verification data to designated agents, event organizers, or management agencies strictly for verification and event execution.
-
10.2.5 Refusal or failure to complete identity verification as required constitutes forfeiture of eligibility without entitlement to a refund.

10.2.7 Members warrant that all submitted data is true and accurate. Use of forged, stolen, or AI/Deepfake-generated identities empowers the Company to disqualify participants, report matters to law enforcement (such as HK Police or PCPD), the Company also reserves the right to recover any reasonable administrative and legal costs arising from such conduct.
-
10.3 Signature Quality and Artist Conduct Disclaimer
-
10.3.1 Signatures are handwritten. Variations in ink pressure, clarity, smudging, positioning, or minor alterations are normal characteristics and do not constitute product defects. Returns/exchanges based on subjective aesthetic preferences will not be accepted.
