Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of these terms

By creating an account or using SeyMarché ("the Platform", "we", "us"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use the Platform.

2. What SeyMarché is

SeyMarché is an online marketplace that connects local farmers with buyers in Seychelles. We provide the technology that lets farmers list produce and buyers request orders — we are not a party to any sale, do not take ownership of produce, and do not process payments on behalf of either side.

Farmers are solely responsible for the accuracy, quality, and legality of what they list. Buyers are solely responsible for reviewing a listing before requesting an order.

3. Eligibility and accounts

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Platform. You agree to provide accurate registration information and to keep your account credentials confidential — you are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.

Each account may only be used by one individual or business. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that provide false information or are used in violation of these terms.

4. Listings

Farmers must have the legal right to sell any produce they list, and must keep quantity, price, and availability information current. We may remove, edit, or suspend a listing at our discretion — including under the admin controls described in our documentation — if it violates these terms, applicable law, or appears fraudulent or misleading.

5. Orders and transactions

A buyer's order request is not binding until the farmer confirms it. Once confirmed, the resulting agreement to sell and buy the produce is directly between the farmer and the buyer — SeyMarché is not a party to that agreement and does not guarantee its performance by either side.

Either party may cancel an order that has not yet been fulfilled, subject to the status rules described in the Platform (see our FAQ). We are not responsible for losses arising from a cancelled, late, or unfulfilled order.

6. Payment, pickup, and delivery

SeyMarché does not process or hold payment for any order. Buyers and farmers agree on and settle payment directly, and arrange pickup or delivery between themselves. Risk of loss and title to the produce passes at the point of handover between the farmer and the buyer.

7. Prohibited conduct

You agree not to: list produce you do not have the right to sell; post false, misleading, or fraudulent information; harass or abuse other users; attempt to circumvent the Platform to avoid its policies; or use the Platform for any unlawful purpose. We may suspend or terminate access for violations of this section.

8. Disclaimers

The Platform is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not warrant the quality, safety, legality, or fitness for purpose of any produce listed by a farmer, and we do not guarantee that the Platform will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, SeyMarché and its operators will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Platform, or from any transaction between a farmer and a buyer. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Platform will not exceed the amount, if any, you paid us in the twelve months preceding the claim.

10. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Platform at any time, with or without notice, for conduct that violates these terms or that we believe is harmful to other users or to SeyMarché.

11. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Seychelles, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any dispute arising from these terms or your use of the Platform will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Seychelles.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will take reasonable steps to notify users before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Platform after a change takes effect constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
