Services Overview
The Marketplace serves as a platform where domestic consumers can engage in transactions with third-party sellers. These sellers have been permitted to utilize the Marketplace to showcase and sell their products. It is important to note that the Company solely offers the Marketplace as a platform for users to conduct transactions at their own expense and risk. Any additional services provided by the Company will be explicitly communicated in writing.
Please be aware that the Company is not a party to any transaction between you and third-party sellers. We do not have any control, involvement, or influence over the products you purchase from these sellers or the prices they set. Therefore, the Company disclaims all warranties and liabilities associated with any products offered on the Marketplace.
The Marketplace offers its services exclusively to specific regions within India, and these services are subject to limitations imposed by the business hours and days of third-party sellers.
If the minimum order value is not met, there may be a delivery charge for transactions completed on the Marketplace. You will be provided with details regarding these charges when you proceed to check out for your transaction on the Marketplace.
Please be aware that transactions made through the Marketplace may be subject to a convenience and safety fee. You will be provided with details of this fee during the check-out stage when making a transaction through the Marketplace.
Eligibility
The Marketplace is exclusively available to those who possess the legal capacity to enter into contracts, as per the Indian Contract Act, of 1872. This means that individuals classified as “incompetent to contract,” such as minors and undischarged insolvents, are not eligible to use or access the platform.
In the case that you are under the age of 18, which designates you as a minor, you have the option to utilize or access the Marketplace under the supervision of an adult parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms of Use. However, it is important to note that you are not allowed, even with any provisions, to purchase any product(s) intended for adult consumption, as the sale of such products to minors is strictly prohibited.
The Marketplace serves as a platform exclusively for individuals seeking to purchase products for personal use within their households. Retailers, institutions, wholesalers, and other business users are not permitted to utilize the Marketplace for procuring products from third-party sellers. These sellers have been granted access to the Marketplace to showcase and sell their products.
The Company retains the authority to terminate or decline your registration or deny access to the Marketplace, at its own discretion and without assuming any liability, if: (1) it becomes known or brought to attention that you fail to meet the eligibility requirements, or (2) the Company has reasonable grounds to suspect (including through analysing usage patterns) that a user is in violation of the eligibility criteria, or (3) there is a potential breach of the terms outlined in this User Agreement.
The Company utilizes an algorithm and predetermined criteria-based technology to assess compliance with eligibility criteria. As a result, there may be occasions when your usage is restricted or blocked due to similarities with these algorithms or predetermined criteria. If you are a genuine domestic user of the Platform and encounter such circumstances, please don’t hesitate to contact us for assistance.
