Platform Terms of Use

These draft terms apply to authorised people who use Rippa Trading's internal business platform. The platform supports the operation of the Rippa Trading business; it is not a customer retail contract or a supplier agreement.

You may use the platform only for lawful work that you are authorised to perform for the business. You must keep your account details private, use a unique password, protect any enrolled second factor, and tell the owner promptly if you suspect unauthorised access.

Do not misuse the platform, access another business's records, interfere with security, upload unlawful material, or use the platform to mislead customers, suppliers or sales channels.

You must follow the current terms that apply to each supplier, product, destination and sales channel. A connection, catalogue record or recommendation in the platform does not itself prove that a supplier relationship, product permission, safety certificate or marketplace approval exists.

AI features may summarise sources, draft text and identify issues. Their output can be incomplete or wrong and must be checked by a person against current source material.

AI does not authorise purchases, listings, refunds, policy changes or financial decisions. A person with the required business authority must review and approve consequential actions. Missing, stale or conflicting evidence must be treated as unresolved.

The business retains its rights in the business information it supplies or creates in the platform, subject to the rights of the people and organisations represented in that information. Users must handle business, customer, supplier and commercial information confidentially and only for authorised business purposes.

Each user is responsible for the information and actions they submit under their account. Do not enter payment-card data, passwords, secret API keys or other credentials into ordinary business records.

Authentication, hosting, storage, supplier feeds, marketplaces and other connected services may be provided by third parties. Their terms, permissions, availability and processing practices apply to their own services. Connections may be unavailable, delayed or changed without notice.

The platform is provided as an operational tool and may be interrupted for maintenance, security response or service-provider outages. Business records and decisions should be checked against their authoritative source before action.

The business owner may change access when a user's role changes. Access may be suspended when reasonably needed to respond to suspected misuse, a security concern, legal requirements or a material breach of these terms. Where practical, the owner will explain the reason and restore access when the concern is resolved.

Users remain responsible for checking supplier terms, product facts, channel rules, pricing and customer obligations before acting. The platform is not legal, tax, accounting or product-safety advice.

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies a right, guarantee, remedy or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded under Australian law, including the Australian Consumer Law. Any permitted limitation is confined to the extent the law allows in the circumstances.

These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia, subject to any non-excludable protections that apply. A material update will be shown to users and may require acknowledgement before further use.

This document is a draft for internal platform use and requires review by a qualified Australian legal professional before live public release.
