Changes to Terms

Effective Date: January 15, 2025 | Last Revised: March 12, 2025

1. Our Commitment to Transparency

MarketFlow ("we," "our," or "us") is committed to maintaining clear, fair, and transparent Terms of Service ("Terms") that govern your use of our marketplace platform. Because the digital commerce landscape evolves continuously, we may need to update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in our services, legal requirements, industry standards, or operational improvements.

This page outlines how we communicate changes, how you will be notified, and what your rights and obligations are when modifications are made.

2. How We Will Notify You

We understand that staying informed is important. When we make changes to the Terms, we will notify you using one or more of the following methods:

  • Email Notification: For material changes, we will send a direct email to the address associated with your MarketFlow account at least 14 days before the changes take effect.
  • In-App Notification: You may receive an alert or banner within the MarketFlow web platform or mobile application upon your next login.
  • Website Publication: All updates will be posted on this page, with the effective date clearly displayed at the top.
  • Conspicuous Notice: Significant changes will be highlighted in bold or marked with a "CHANGED" indicator in the revised Terms document.
Note: It is your responsibility to periodically review these Terms. Your continued use of the MarketFlow platform after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms.

3. Categories of Changes

3.1 Material Changes

Material changes are modifications that significantly alter your rights, obligations, fees, data practices, or the core functionality of the marketplace. Examples include changes to dispute resolution procedures, fee structures, privacy data handling, or account termination policies. Material changes will always require advance notice and a clear effective date.

3.2 Non-Material Changes

Non-material changes include minor corrections, formatting updates, clarifications of ambiguous language, or administrative adjustments that do not impact your substantive rights. These may take effect immediately upon publication.

3.3 Emergency Updates

In rare cases involving legal compliance, security vulnerabilities, or urgent operational necessities, MarketFlow may implement changes with shortened notice periods. We will promptly notify users via all available channels and provide a detailed explanation upon implementation.

4. Your Options If You Disagree

If you do not agree with the revised Terms, your sole and exclusive remedy is to:

  1. Stop using the MarketFlow platform immediately upon the effective date of the changes.
  2. Request account closure by contacting our support team or using the self-service option in your account settings.
  3. Export your data and close any active listings or pending transactions in accordance with our Seller and Buyer guidelines.

By continuing to access or use the platform after the effective date, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by the updated Terms.
