6-1. SOP Store Notifications
- Scope: The Company sends booking notifications to staff of merchants that use the Company's booking service (for example, trainers, front-desk staff, and store managers) through its LINE Official Account "SOP店家通知" (SOP Store Notifications; SOP stands for Sellers' Open Protocol) (the "Notification Account"). This section applies to staff who have added the Notification Account as a friend and completed binding. The Notification Account is opened and managed by the Company; it is not a merchant's own LINE Official Account.
- Collector: The Company (see Section 2).
- Purposes: Sending booking notifications (new booking, booking confirmed, customer cancellation, and reminders of bookings awaiting confirmation); verifying binding, keeping the account secure, and preventing abuse; recording delivery results and investigating failed sends; and complying with legal obligations.
- Data collected: The user identifier provided by the LINE platform (valid only for the Company's account); binding records (the merchant, the label the merchant gives the binding, binding time, and status); and notification logs (event, time, and result). The Company does not store your LINE display name or profile picture.
- Notification content: Only the time slot, class name, number of people, and a link to the confirmation page. Notifications do not contain customers' names, phone numbers, or email addresses.
- Period: From the time you complete binding until you unbind, block or delete the Notification Account, the merchant stops using the service, or you request deletion, at which point binding data is deleted immediately. Notification logs are deleted after 90 days.
- Area: The Republic of China (Taiwan); Japan (where the LINE platform operator is located); and the United States and other regions where Cloudflare nodes are located.
- Recipients: The Company; LY Corporation (the LINE platform); Cloudflare (system hosting); the merchant you work for (which can see on its confirmation page how many staff are bound and when); and authorities with legal power to obtain the data.
- Method: Collection, processing, use, and international transfer by electronic means.
- Use limitation: Data obtained through the LINE platform is used only for the notifications in this section. It is not used for advertising or marketing, is not sold, is not provided to third parties other than those listed in this section, and is not used to train AI models.
- Your choices: You may choose not to add the Notification Account or not to complete binding. You will then not receive LINE notifications, but the booking itself is not affected and you can still check it on the confirmation page. You can block or delete the Notification Account in LINE at any time, or ask your merchant to remove your binding on the confirmation page. Other rights may be exercised under Section 7.
- LINE platform: Notifications are delivered through the LINE platform. Data on the LINE platform is handled under LINE's own privacy policy and terms.
7. Your Rights and How to Exercise Them
You may exercise the following rights with respect to your personal data:
- Inquiry or request to review.

8. Effect of Not Providing Personal Data
You are free to choose whether to provide personal data. If you do not provide the necessary contact data, the Company may be unable to reply to your inquiry, provide a quotation, or perform a contract.
