These terms govern Korean Tickers public pages and Standard API pilots. Last updated July 12, 2026.
Korean Tickers provides informational research pages and a manually approved Standard API pilot for normalized DART-derived data on Korean listed companies. The service is intended for the approved research, dashboard, agent, application, or internal-analysis use written into the applicable order form.
The advertised pilot price is $19.99 per month for approved access. The pilot includes Standard API endpoints, a default KST-day allowance of 3,000 requests, and a default minute allowance of 120 requests. Access is reviewed and provisioned manually; the public pricing page is not an automatic checkout. The active access grant is the quota owner, every linked key shares its allowance, and response headers are authoritative for the current request. Unused requests do not roll over, and we may add, remove, or change plans prospectively.
Korean Tickers API keys are for server-side use by the approved account or organization. You are responsible for keeping them confidential. Do not publish keys, embed them in public client code, share them with unrelated users, or use them to bypass product limits. Each access grant may have at most three active keys and issue at most ten keys in a rolling 24-hour window; revoking a key does not reset that issuance control. Customers never receive or use Korean Tickers' upstream OpenDART authentication key.
You may use API responses only for the integration and audience approved in the order form. Model inference or retrieval use does not include a right to build or enrich a model-training corpus. Bulk resale, raw-response resale, standalone redistribution, public mirroring, sublicensing, a competing normalized feed, bulk archive creation, and training-corpus use are prohibited unless a separate written agreement and source-rights review expressly grant them.
Customer displays, exports, and material result summaries must identify the source as Financial Supervisory Service OpenDART and preserve the supplied filing receipt or original filing link. Attribution must not imply that the Financial Supervisory Service or DART endorses Korean Tickers or the customer. The upstream OpenDART terms are not a sublicense from Korean Tickers.
API responses are delivered with private, no-store HTTP headers because they are authenticated and include customer- and grant-specific metadata. Production Standard is capped at 10 logical reporting periods per ticker; quarter, half-year, third-quarter, and annual filings are logical periods, and CFS/OFS variants count as one. The oldest period beyond that fixed capacity is removed after a new complete period is published. The response retentionPolicy and historyWindow disclose the active state, and the service is not a bulk or long-term archive. During an active pilot, you may retain only the data reasonably needed for the approved integration and retention period in the order form. Do not operate a public mirror, bulk archive, or shared raw-response cache. At termination, stop collection immediately and delete retained raw responses and evidence within 30 days unless the order form or applicable law requires a different period.
Queue bulk jobs, honor Retry-After and rate-limit reset headers, and avoid concurrent request patterns that degrade the service or its upstream sources. Supabase-backed customer keys use one global atomic counter per access grant, shared by every linked key and endpoint lane. Quota is reserved after a credential and active grant pass authentication but before endpoint validation and data work, so that authenticated attempt counts even if later processing returns a 4xx or 5xx response. Requests rejected before reservation, including 401, 403, an already exhausted 429, or metering-store 503, do not consume another slot. If that metering store is unavailable, customer requests fail closed with HTTP 503 rate_limit_store_unavailable and Retry-After instead of using process-local counting. Process-local fallback is limited to internal environment keys and is not a customer billing meter. Attempts to evade limits, enumerate credentials, scrape authenticated endpoints without a key, or interfere with service operation may result in suspension or revocation.
DART filings and source records can be revised, corrected, delayed, incomplete, unavailable, or expressed differently by each issuer. Korean Tickers normalizes and validates data, but does not guarantee that every field is available for every company or period. Missing source data remains null rather than being presented as zero. API timestamps describe collection or normalization events and are not a guarantee of filing publication time.
Korean Tickers does not provide investment advice, recommendations, broker-dealer services, portfolio management, legal advice, tax advice, or accounting advice. You are responsible for independent verification and decision-making.
The pilot is provided on an as-is and as-available basis without a service-level agreement unless one is stated in a separate signed agreement. The operating support target is a first human response within two Korean business days, not a response-time or restoration SLA. We may change, pause, rate-limit, suspend, or discontinue features for security, data quality, maintenance, upstream-source changes, legal requirements, or product development. Breaking schema changes will use a new API or schema version where reasonably practicable.
Billing begins only after the parties sign the applicable terms and Korean Tickers issues a manual invoice. Standard API fees, currency, taxes, invoice date, due date, pilot term, and any renewal are controlled by the signed order form. No usage overage is charged automatically. Cancellation, pre-activation refunds, service credits, and post-activation refunds follow the Refund Policy and order form; mandatory rights under applicable law are not excluded.
We may suspend or terminate access for nonpayment, credential exposure, abusive traffic, security risk, prohibited redistribution, source-rights changes, or a material breach. Where the issue is not urgent, we will try to provide notice and a reasonable opportunity to cure. At the effective end of access, keys are disabled, charges do not continue automatically, and both parties must follow the order-form retention and deletion terms.
A signed order form identifies the contracting parties, approved use, product version, fee, limits, support, retention, governing law, and notice details. If it conflicts with these public terms, the signed order form controls for that customer only. No paid Standard API access may start until provider legal identity, address, telephone, source authorization, and other mandatory order-form fields are complete.
The service links to or depends on third-party services such as DART, public data portals, infrastructure providers, authentication providers, and payment processors. Those services are governed by their own terms and policies. Korean Tickers is independent from and is not endorsed by the Financial Supervisory Service or DART.
