### Category Review Policy
- Items that do not meet the criteria below are not necessarily approved.
- Item categories are criteria used to classify items so that ZEPETO users can search for and wear them accurately.
- Please refer to the guidelines below and select and submit items in the category that best suits their form and function.
- This guide is based on currently available review criteria and may be subject to change according to internal operational policies.
- The Studio Team applies consistent criteria in accordance with internal guidelines to ensure that items are reviewed appropriately for each category.
- The example images are for reference purposes only and are not related to revenue. If you have any concerns about the use of images, please contact customer service.
- **ZEPETO recommends submitting items separately according to the provided categories. However, if items share a clear concept, color, texture, etc., and can be recognized as a single set, they may be approved even if they overlap categories.**
- **Such judgments fall under the subjective discretion of reviewers, and the Studio Team reviews submissions with the aim of approving them as much as possible.**
