Any disadvantages such as refusal of import by customs, as stipulated in Article 6, Paragraph 3, shall be borne by the User. However, if otherwise stipulated in these Terms, such stipulations shall prevail.

4. Due to the nature of the Service, cancellations, returns, or exchanges of orders for the User's convenience after the conclusion of the Usage Agreement are generally not accepted, unless otherwise specified by the Company.
