Terms of Use

Effective 10 September 2026 · seoulsaram.co

Seoulsaram is an open archive of everyday life in Seoul. Anyone in Seoul can fill in a short form, and what they wrote becomes an English card that is published here and shared on social platforms. By submitting a card or by using this site, you agree to these terms.

1. There are no accounts

You cannot sign up or log in, and there are no comments, messages, or profiles to follow. The private author link you receive when you submit is the only proof that a card is yours. Keep it. We store only a hash of it, so we cannot look it up or reissue it — if you lose the link, you lose the ability to delete that card or change the Instagram handle shown on it. You can still ask us to remove it; see section 5.

2. What you may submit

Submit only your own everyday life. In particular:

3. Rights you keep, and rights you grant

You keep ownership of your photos and your words. When you submit, you confirm that you hold the necessary copyright and portrait rights — that the photos are yours to publish and that anyone recognisable in them agrees — and you agree that Seoulsaram may translate your text into English and other languages and turn it into a card image.

You also grant Seoulsaram and viewers of the site the right to redistribute the card image on social platforms — that is what the card is for. This right covers the card image and the page it links to, is worldwide and free of charge, and lasts while the card is published. It does not transfer ownership of your photos, and it does not let anyone sell your work.

4. Photos of you posted by someone else

If a photo of you was published here without your permission, email hello@seoulsaram.co and we will remove it. You do not need an author link to ask.

5. Deleting a card

Card images that were already shared or saved elsewhere on the internet are outside our control, and deleting a card here cannot pull them back.

6. Moderation

We may hide or remove any card that breaks these terms, and we may block submissions that look like spam. There is no appeal process — this is a small archive run by one person. If you think something was hidden by mistake, email us.

7. No warranty

Seoulsaram is provided as it is, for free. We do not guarantee that the site, any card, or any translation will be available, accurate, or permanent, and we are not responsible for what other people submit or for anything you find through links that leave this site. Translations are produced automatically and may be wrong.

8. Changes

If these terms change we will update the date at the top of this page.

9. Governing law and contact

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea. Questions: hello@seoulsaram.co.
