TERMS OF SERVICE

last updated 2026-09-01

These terms form the agreement between you and Pineryn Co., Ltd. (沛凜股份有限公司) (Taiwan company no. 60525589, “we” or “the company”) covering “차곡 문형첩 BRIK” (“the service”). Registering an account, subscribing, or using any part of the service means you have read and accepted these terms.

01What the service is

The service is an online subscription to Korean grammar-pattern learning material: a daily study sheet, pattern and vocabulary pages, lesson audio and weekly collections.

There are two levels of access:

  • Free. The last seven days of lessons (including today) can be read online and downloaded as PDFs, and every pattern and vocabulary page is open. None of this requires an account.
  • Subscription. Everything above, plus the full lesson archive, sentence-by-sentence audio, and the weekly collection PDFs.

We produce the material ourselves and publish one issue a day. We may change the publishing time and how the material is arranged.

02Your account

You can sign in with an emailed link or with a Google account. We do not store your password.

Keep your registration details accurate and your sign-in mailbox secure. Anything done through your account is treated as done by you.

If you are under 18, you need your legal guardian’s consent to use the paid features.

03Subscription and payment

  • Subscriptions are monthly or yearly. Whether it renews automatically depends on the payment method you choose, and both are stated clearly at checkout:
  • LINE Pay (New Taiwan dollars) is a one-time payment and does not auto-renew. You are buying a fixed period of access; when it ends, the account drops to the free plan automatically. We email you seven days and one day before it runs out. To carry on, buy again before it ends.
  • PayPal (US dollars) renews automatically. It renews and charges at the end of each period until you cancel.
  • Several payment methods are offered; you choose at checkout. PayPal (PayPal Pte. Ltd.) prices in US dollars and handles the recurring charge. Local Taiwanese card payments are handled by HiTRUST Inc. (Taiwan company no. 16313302). We never store your full card number, whichever method you use.
  • PayPal does not handle transactions inside Taiwan. Under PayPal’s own policy, PayPal accounts opened in Taiwan and payment instruments issued in Taiwan cannot be used with our PayPal option; that option is for payment instruments issued outside Taiwan.
  • Price, tax and currency are as shown at checkout. We will email you at least 30 days before any price change, which then applies from your next subscription period.
  • As required by Taiwanese law, we issue an electronic invoice (電子發票) once payment completes. Individual customers may store it on a member carrier or a common carrier approved by the Ministry of Finance (such as a mobile barcode). If you need an invoice showing a company tax number, enter your company’s tax number and invoice details at checkout. Once issued, contact us if a correction is needed.

Auto-renewing plans can be cancelled at any time. Cancelling does not cut you off immediately — access runs to the end of the period you have paid for. One-time plans never renew, so there is nothing to cancel. In both cases the account drops to the free plan when the period ends; your account and payment history are kept, and you can subscribe again whenever you like.

04Refunds

Refunds and the statutory right to withdraw from a distance contract are set out in the Refund Policy, which forms part of these terms.

05Intellectual property and licence

The text, example sentences, dialogues, layout, brand name and marks in the service are owned by us or properly licensed to us.

While your subscription is active, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the material for your own study.

Without our prior written consent, you may not:

  • reproduce, publicly transmit, distribute, rent or sell the material, PDFs or audio files to anyone else;
  • use the material to teach others, whether in a cram school, a school, or corporate training;
  • scrape the service in bulk by automated means, or work around access limits;
  • remove or alter the attribution on the material.

The fonts used in the service are licensed under the SIL Open Font License, and the lesson audio is generated by a text-to-speech service. These terms do not change those third-party licences.

06Files you have downloaded

PDFs you downloaded while subscribed stay on your device after the subscription ends; we do not take them back. The restrictions in section 5 still apply to them.

07Changes, interruption and termination

We may suspend the service for maintenance, upgrades or events beyond our control, and will give notice where we can.

If you seriously breach these terms — distributing the material at scale, for instance — we may suspend or close your account. We are not obliged to refund in that case.

If we decide to shut the service down, we will announce it 30 days in advance and refund the unused part of your subscription pro rata.

08Disclaimer

The service provides language-learning material. It does not guarantee any particular result or that you will pass any examination.

The material is proofread, but errors can survive. Tell us if you find one and we will correct it as quickly as we can.

To the fullest extent the law allows, our liability for damages relating to the service is capped at the total subscription fees you actually paid in the 12 months before the claim arose. This cap does not apply to damage caused by our intent or gross negligence.

09Changes to these terms

We may revise these terms. For changes that materially affect your rights, we will give notice by email or on the site at least 30 days before they take effect.

If you do not accept a revision, cancel before it takes effect. Continuing to use the service afterwards counts as accepting the revised terms.

10Governing law and jurisdiction

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of China (Taiwan). Disputes arising from them are to be brought first before the Taiwan Taoyuan District Court. This does not affect consumer rights granted by the Consumer Protection Act.
