KakaoTalk is committed to protecting the privacy of its users.
Messages exchanged between users in KakaoTalk are protected under the freedom of privacy and freedom of communication set forth in the Constitution of the Republic of Korea, and KakaoTalk does not display messages and content exchanged between users to protect its users’ privacy.
KakaoTalk Service Policy was established and has been operating to protect user privacy and personal information. The policy has continued to evolve from the planning phase into a method that minimizes an unexpected infringement of user privacy.KakaoTalk strives to grow into a reliable platform that everyone can trust.
KakaoTalk is committed to protecting its users and creating a healthy Internet ecosystem. Users who threaten others and impede free communication are inevitably restricted from using the service based on KakaoTalk Operation Policy.
However, KakaoTalk tries not to encroach on privacy even when taking safety measures. Even if a user reports damage, it exerts every effort to prevent a conflict between user safety measures and privacy protection measures by checking only a limited range of messages for processing the report.
