Terms of Use

Effective October 30, 2026 · Last updated October 30, 2026

Love Arts Class is a place to read one short story about love each day and think about one question. It is not a dating service, and it is not for meeting people.

1. About these terms

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Jooyong Park, doing business as MINDSETUP (“we,” “us”), the operator of Love Arts Class (the app and loveartsclass.com, together the “Service”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the Service.

2. Who can use the Service

You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service (19 if you live in South Korea, as required by Korean law). We check your age with the birth date you enter at sign-up. If you are under the age limit, you can’t create an account and we delete what you entered right away.

3. Your account

(a) You sign up with Sign in with Apple or a Kakao account. We only receive a member number from them — not your name, email, or photo.
(b) Your account is for you only. Don’t share, sell, or lend it.
(c) Your nickname must be 2–10 letters and can’t include phone numbers, contact info, or social media handles. You can change it once a month.

4. What the Service offers

(a) A daily story (comic and essay) with a question, other members’ answers and reactions, partner connection, friend and circle features, the “My Love Map” (a 3-question style quiz and MBTI notes), and a one-year growth record.
(b) Quiz results and MBTI notes are for self-reflection only. They are not psychological diagnosis, therapy, counseling, or medical advice.
(c) We may change, add, or pause parts of the Service to improve it. We’ll tell you in advance about important changes.

5. Membership (auto-renewing subscription)

(a) Reading the daily story and answering need a Membership, an auto-renewing subscription sold through Apple. The price is shown in the App Store before you buy, in your local currency (US dollars in the United States). Without a Membership you can still sign up, use the Me tab and Settings, read stories you already answered, connect with a partner, restore purchases, and delete your account.
(b) Free trial: New members may get a 3-day free trial, once per Apple ID. If you don’t cancel before the trial ends, the plan you chose is charged.
(c) Auto-renewal: Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each period (monthly or yearly) at the same price unless you cancel. Payment is charged to your Apple ID.
(d) Cancel anytime: Go to iPhone Settings → your name → Subscriptions (you can also open it from Me → Settings → Membership → Manage Subscription). Cancel at least 24 hours before the next renewal to avoid the next charge. You keep access until the end of the period you already paid for.
(e) Refunds: Apple handles all payments and refunds under Apple’s policies. You can request a refund at reportaproblem.apple.com. If Apple refunds a subscription, it ends right away.
(f) First-year discount: First-time members may be offered a first-year discount. It starts right away without a free trial, and after the discounted period it renews at the regular price. Each Apple ID can get either the trial or the discount, once.
(g) Partner Membership: You can pay for your connected partner’s Membership. It is charged to and canceled by the person who paid. It applies to your partner while you are connected. If you disconnect, the remaining time goes back to the person who paid.

6. What you write

(a) You own the answers and replies you write.
(b) You give us permission to store and show your writing to the people you chose (everyone, your partner, friends, or your circle), only as needed to run the Service.
(c) To keep everyone safe, we automatically check posts for banned content (contact info, requests to meet, abuse) before they appear. We don’t send your writing to AI companies or other outside parties for this.

7. Community rules (zero tolerance)

We may remove content, limit your account, or close it without warning for any of these:

Contact infoPosting or asking for phone numbers, social media or messaging handles, links, or email addresses
Asking to meetSuggesting private chats, meeting up, or asking where someone lives
Harassment and hateInsults, put-downs, sexual comments, attacking someone, discrimination
Privacy violationsPosting another person’s real name, photo, or private life (including a partner or friend) without their consent
OtherAds or selling, disrupting the Service, breaking the law

We review reported posts within 24 hours. If a post breaks these rules, we remove it and suspend or close the account. A post with 3 reports is hidden automatically until we review it. You can block any member at any time.

8. Deleting your account

You can delete your account anytime in Me → Settings → Delete Account (see how to delete your account). You are logged out right away, and after 5 days your posts, reactions, partner and circle records, and personal information are permanently deleted. Records of reports and penalties may be kept in a form that doesn’t identify you, where the law requires.

9. Important limits

(a) The Service offers reading and reflection about love. We are not responsible for the outcome of your dating life or relationships.
(b) If you are in crisis, please contact a professional right away: call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), text HOME to 741741 (Crisis Text Line), call 1-800-799-7233 (National Domestic Violence Hotline), or call 911 in an emergency. Outside the US, contact your local emergency services.
(c) The Service is provided “as is.” To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or incidental damages, or for problems caused by events outside our control (such as natural disasters or network outages). Nothing in these Terms limits rights you have under the consumer protection laws of where you live.

10. Apple

If you use the iPhone app, Apple’s Licensed Application End User License Agreement also applies. These Terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the Service or its content, and has no obligation to provide support for it.

11. Changes and disputes

(a) If we change these Terms, we’ll post a notice in the Service at least 7 days before the change takes effect (30 days for changes that are less favorable to you).
(b) These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea, without taking away any protection you have under the mandatory laws of the country or state where you live. Before taking any formal action, please email us so we can try to fix the problem.
