Membership Terms of Service
009 (hereinafter referred to as “the Platform”)

● The term “Member” as used in these Membership Terms of Service refers to any individual who has completed the membership registration process as prescribed by the Platform and has passed the required verification.
● By using the services provided by the Platform, you agree to comply with these Terms of Service and the applicable laws and regulations.
● The Platform reserves the right to review and approve membership applications, as well as the right to terminate the membership of existing members.
● Any amendments to these Membership Terms of Service shall apply to all members. When the Platform revises these terms, the updated version will be announced on the Platform.

Member
● When using the membership services provided by the Platform, you must use the account and password created during membership registration.
● Members are solely responsible for the use and management of their account and password. Any and all actions and consequences resulting from the use of a member’s account and password (whether by the member or others) on the Platform are the sole responsibility of the member.
● If a member’s account or password is lost or discovered to have been used without authorization by a third party, the member must immediately notify the Platform to report the loss. Failure to notify the Platform in a timely manner, resulting in the Platform being unable to prevent or correct the situation, will make the member fully responsible for any resulting losses.
● Each time you finish using the service, you should log out and close the browser window to protect your membership rights.
● If you use another member’s account or password without authorization, and such use causes the third-party member or the Platform to be subject to investigation or prosecution by other parties or government authorities, the third-party member or the Platform is entitled to seek compensation from you for damages, including but not limited to litigation costs, attorney’s fees, and loss of goodwill.

Member Registration Information
● Members must provide accurate, up-to-date, and complete personal information during registration.
● Registration information must not be falsified or contain inaccurate details (e.g., personal information or credit card information). If such violations are discovered, the Platform may refuse membership, and may suspend or terminate the member’s account. Violations of applicable laws of the Republic of China (Taiwan) will also be prosecuted accordingly.
● Members must update their basic information (e.g., address, phone number, or other registered data) as necessary to ensure accuracy and completeness. If incorrect or inconsistent information is provided, the Platform reserves the right to suspend or terminate the account and refuse continued use of the services.
● Except as otherwise stated in the Platform’s Privacy Policy, the Platform will not disclose personal information to third parties without the member’s consent.
● Members must safeguard their passwords and must not disclose or provide them to others. All actions taken using the same national ID number and password will be deemed as actions taken by the member themselves.
● If a member suspects that their ID or password has been used by a third party, they must immediately notify the Platform and take necessary precautions. Such notification shall not be construed as the Platform assuming any liability or obligation for compensation.
