Terms & Conditions

The agreement between you and WEARHOUSE when you use the marketplace.

Last updated April 2026

These terms govern access to WEARHOUSE websites, apps, and related services. They are a working draft for product and engineering teams - replace with counsel-approved language before production reliance. Structure below mirrors typical marketplace agreements so reviewers can navigate quickly.

Legal clarity and readable UI belong together - we surface key terms again at checkout.

1. The service

WEARHOUSE operates an online venue where registered users may list, market, and purchase pre-owned fashion items. We provide software, payments orchestration (via partners), messaging, and trust tooling. We are not the seller of third-party listings unless explicitly stated.

Eligibility & account security

You must meet minimum age and capacity rules in your jurisdiction. Keep credentials confidential and notify us of unauthorised use. You are responsible for activity under your account until you report compromise through official channels.

2. Listings & transactions

Sellers represent they have legal title and that items are authentic and as described. Buyers agree to pay authorised charges and provide accurate delivery information. Contract formation, cooling-off rights, and VAT treatment depend on region-specific checkout terms incorporated by reference.

3. Prohibited conduct

  • Illegal goods, stolen property, or recalled items
  • Harassment, discrimination, or threats
  • Fraud, chargeback abuse, or synthetic engagement
  • Circumvention of fees or checkout flows
  • Scraping that degrades service or violates robots policy

4. Fees & taxes

Commission, listing boosts, currency conversion, and payment processing may apply. Fees shown at purchase authorisation prevail over marketing pages if they conflict. You are responsible for taxes where law places them on you; we collect/remit where required as a marketplace facilitator.

5. Intellectual property

WEARHOUSEtrademarks, design, and codebase remain our property or our licensors'. You grant a licence to host, display, and distribute content you upload as needed to operate the service, including moderation and ranking. Respect third-party IP in listings; repeat infringement may lead to termination under applicable notice procedures.

DMCA-style notices (template)

Designate an agent, publish an address, and describe repeat infringer policy. This marketing draft omits statutory magic language - your counsel should supply complete safe-harbour text for your hosting jurisdiction.

6. Disclaimers

The service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis to the extent permitted by law. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access or that listings are lawful, safe, or accurate - member diligence remains essential.

7. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted, neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits/data, arising from marketplace disputes between users or from service outages. Caps may tie to fees paid in a rolling period - your counsel sets numbers.

Jurisdiction-specific consumer rights may override certain limitations - local law applies where mandatory.

8. Suspension & termination

We may suspend or terminate accounts that risk the community or our ability to process payments. You may close your account subject to outstanding obligations and records retention rules.

9. Changes

We will notify you of material changes as required by law - often by email, banner, or updated effective date on this page. Continued use may constitute acceptance where permissible.
