No rights are transferred to you except the limited licence to use the Platform in accordance with these Terms.

Your content: You retain ownership of all data and content you upload to the Platform. By uploading content, you grant us a limited licence to process, store, and display that content solely for the purpose of providing the service to you. We will not use your content for any other purpose.

• Continued provision of the service is no longer commercially viable.

Upon termination, your right to access the Platform ceases immediately. We may retain your data for a reasonable period in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable law, including POPIA requirements. You may request deletion of your personal data by contacting us.

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of South Africa.

Any dispute arising from or in connection with these Terms or the use of the Platform shall first be referred to mediation. If mediation fails, the dispute shall be submitted to the jurisdiction of the High Court of South Africa, or an appropriate court with competent jurisdiction in the Republic of South Africa.

Nothing in these Terms limits your right to approach the Information Regulator, the Consumer Commission, or any other regulatory body in South Africa for relief.

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be communicated to users via email or an in-platform notice. Continued use of the Platform after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

We recommend reviewing these Terms periodically. The “Last updated” date at the top of this page indicates when these Terms were last revised.
