Effective 4 August 2026. Published under Article 20(3) of the Korean Act on Consumer Protection in Electronic Commerce, so you know in advance who handles what when something goes wrong.
This is a reference translation. In case of any discrepancy, the Korean version prevails.
These standards set out the procedure and allocation of responsibility for resolving disputes that arise between a user and a seller, or between a user and Pacers (the "Company"), on the PacerTrip service.
1. The Company acts as an intermediary and is not a party to any sale. Race entries, accommodation, flights and tours are booked and paid for by you directly on the seller's own site.
2. The Company neither receives nor holds any payment. We are not part of your payment flow; payment method, amount and refunds are entirely between you and the seller.
3. Responsibility for the goods or services, for whether a booking is formed, and for cancellation and refunds therefore rests with each seller. However, where the information we published is itself wrong, the Company handles it directly under section 5.
| Type of dispute | Your counterparty | Resolved by | Applicable rules |
|---|---|---|---|
| Race entry, entry-fee refund, distance change | Race organiser | Race organiser | That race's rules and refund policy |
| Accommodation booking, change, cancellation | Booking platform | That platform | That platform's terms and cancellation policy |
| Flight booking, change, cancellation | Flight booking platform | That platform | That platform's terms and the airline's conditions of carriage |
| Tours, activities, eSIM | The selling platform | That platform | That platform's terms |
| Incorrect race information (date, fee, venue, registration window) | — | The Company | Section 5 |
| Broken or wrong outbound link | — | The Company | Section 5 |
| Posts and accounts (PacerTalk reports, blocking, removal) | — | The Company | Terms of Service, Youth Protection Policy |
| Personal data (access, correction, deletion, opt-out) | — | The Company | Privacy Policy, Account Guide |
Even for a dispute with a seller, tell us and we will help verify what we can from our records and point you to that seller's official support channel.
1. We collect race information by checking it against official sources, but errors can still occur when an organiser announces a change late or the source itself is wrong.
2. When you report an error we verify it against the official source and correct it, then reply to you with the outcome. Values we cannot verify are left blank rather than filled in.
3. We recommend confirming entry, schedule and cost on each race's official website before you commit; a link to it is shown on every race page.
