Terms of Service

Master Platform Agreement

Document Type: External Legal Agreement Document Purpose: Establishes the legal relationship between the Platform, Users, and Providers Jurisdiction: Ghana Version: 1.0

1. Introduction and Purpose

These Terms of Service ("Terms", "Agreement", or "Terms of Service Agreement") constitute a legally binding agreement between Beagine ("Company", "Platform", "we", "our", or "us"), and any individual, organization, business, or legal entity that accesses, registers with, or uses the Platform ("User", "you", or "your").

The Platform provides technology-based marketplace services designed to connect individuals, businesses, and organizations seeking services with independent providers capable of fulfilling those service requests. The Platform may facilitate transportation, delivery, logistics, professional services, specialist services, and other categories of services that may be introduced by the Company in the future.

The purpose of this Agreement is to establish the legal framework governing access to and use of the Platform, including the rights, obligations, responsibilities, limitations, and expectations applicable to Users and Providers. This Agreement defines the conditions under which Users may access the Platform, request services, communicate with Providers, make payments, and participate within the Platform ecosystem.

The Platform operates as a digital marketplace and technology intermediary. It does not necessarily provide the underlying physical services requested by Users. Instead, the Platform provides the infrastructure that allows Users and independent Providers to discover each other, communicate, complete transactions, process payments, and maintain trust through technology-enabled systems.

By downloading, accessing, browsing, registering for, or using any part of the Platform, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to comply with this Agreement, together with all related policies, guidelines, and agreements incorporated into this document by reference.

If you do not agree with these Terms, you must not access or use the Platform.

2. Acceptance of Terms and Electronic Contract Formation

Your use of the Platform creates a legally binding contractual relationship between you and the Company. Acceptance of these Terms may occur electronically through account registration, clicking an acceptance button, confirming a service request, accessing Platform features, or continuing to use the Platform after these Terms have been presented to you.

The Company recognizes electronic agreements, digital acknowledgments, electronic records, and electronic communications as valid forms of contractual acceptance in accordance with applicable Ghanaian law, including the Electronic Transactions Act, 2008 (Act 772).

You agree that electronic records generated through the Platform, including account information, transaction records, service confirmations, payment records, communications, ratings, reviews, and system logs, may serve as evidence of your activities and agreements with the Company or other Platform participants.

Where additional terms apply to specific services, features, promotions, payment arrangements, or provider relationships, those additional terms will form part of this Agreement. In the event of conflict between these Terms and a specific service agreement, the specific agreement shall apply only to the extent of that conflict.

The Company reserves the right to update, modify, replace, or amend these Terms from time to time. Where material changes are made, the Company may provide notice through the Platform, email, application notifications, or other reasonable communication methods.

Your continued use of the Platform following such changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

4. Nature of the Platform and Marketplace Relationship

The Platform operates as a technology-enabled marketplace and intermediary service. Its primary purpose is to facilitate connections between Users requiring services and Providers offering those services.

The Company does not represent itself as the provider of every service listed through the Platform. Except where expressly stated otherwise, the physical performance, delivery, execution, and completion of services are carried out by independent Providers.

The relationship created through the Platform consists of three separate but connected relationships:

First, the relationship between the User and the Company, which governs access to the Platform, use of technology systems, payments, account management, and Platform rules.

Second, the relationship between the User and the Provider, which governs the actual service requested and performed.

Third, the relationship between the Provider and the Company, which governs Provider access to the marketplace, use of technology systems, compliance requirements, and operational standards.

The Company provides technology infrastructure, marketplace coordination, payment facilitation, safety tools, customer support mechanisms, and operational oversight. However, the Company does not control every aspect of service delivery performed by independent Providers.

The Company does not guarantee that a Provider will always be available, that every request will be accepted, that estimated prices will always remain unchanged before completion, or that every service outcome will meet individual expectations.

Users acknowledge that they are engaging independent Providers through a technology marketplace and not directly hiring employees of the Company.

5. Eligibility and Account Registration

Access to and use of the Platform is limited to individuals and entities that are legally capable of entering into binding agreements under the law.

By creating an account or using the Platform, you represent and warrant that you have the legal authority and capacity to enter into this Agreement. You confirm that all information provided during registration is accurate, complete, current, and truthful.

The Platform may establish eligibility requirements depending on the nature of the service being accessed. Certain services may require additional qualifications, documentation, age requirements, professional licenses, permits, certifications, or other legal requirements.

Where the Platform provides services involving transportation, delivery, logistics, or specialist activities, Providers may be required to demonstrate compliance with relevant laws, including applicable licensing, registration, safety, and operational requirements.

Users must provide accurate personal information when creating accounts, including where applicable their legal name, contact details, payment information, and other information necessary to provide secure access to Platform services.

The Company reserves the right to refuse registration, restrict access, request additional information, or suspend an account where it reasonably believes that eligibility requirements have not been satisfied or where inaccurate, misleading, incomplete, or fraudulent information has been provided.

An account is personal to the registered account holder unless the Company expressly permits organizational or business accounts. Users are responsible for maintaining control over their accounts and must not sell, transfer, share, or provide unauthorized access to their accounts.

Where an account is created on behalf of a business, organization, or legal entity, the individual creating the account confirms that they have authority to act on behalf of that entity and bind it to these Terms.

6. Identity Verification, Security Checks, and Compliance Requirements

To maintain trust, safety, and regulatory compliance within the Platform ecosystem, the Company may require Users and Providers to complete identity verification procedures.

Verification processes may include submission of government-issued identification documents, business registration documents, professional certifications, photographs, biometric verification where legally permitted, payment verification, address verification, or other information necessary to confirm identity and eligibility.

The Company may use internal systems or approved third-party verification providers to conduct these checks. By using the Platform, you authorize the Company to perform reasonable verification activities necessary to protect the integrity of the marketplace.

The Company does not guarantee that verification processes will identify every risk, prevent all fraudulent activity, or eliminate all potential safety concerns. Verification is one component of the Platform's broader trust and safety framework.

Users and Providers are responsible for ensuring that information provided during verification remains accurate. If information changes, including contact information, identification details, licenses, or registration documents, the account holder must update the information promptly.

Providing false information, submitting fraudulent documents, impersonating another person, or attempting to bypass verification procedures constitutes a serious breach of this Agreement and may result in immediate account suspension or termination.

The Company may also conduct ongoing compliance monitoring where necessary to meet legal obligations, protect Users and Providers, prevent fraud, or maintain marketplace standards.

7. User Account Responsibilities

Users are responsible for all activities conducted through their accounts. Users must take reasonable steps to protect account credentials, passwords, authentication methods, and personal information associated with their Platform accounts.

Users must immediately notify the Company if they suspect unauthorized access, account compromise, fraudulent activity, or misuse of their account.

Users agree that they will use the Platform only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. Users must provide accurate information when submitting service requests and must not intentionally provide false locations, misleading service descriptions, inaccurate payment information, or fraudulent instructions.

Users are responsible for ensuring that they are available and prepared to receive requested services. Where a service requires the User to provide specific information, instructions, access, approvals, or materials, the User is responsible for providing those requirements accurately and in a timely manner.

Users must interact with Providers respectfully and professionally. The Company does not tolerate abusive, threatening, discriminatory, violent, fraudulent, or inappropriate behavior toward Providers or other Platform participants.

Users acknowledge that Providers are independent service providers and that unreasonable demands, unsafe instructions, unlawful requests, or attempts to interfere with Provider operations are prohibited.

8. Provider and Specialist Relationship

Providers using the Platform operate as independent contractors and not as employees, agents, representatives, partners, or legal representatives of the Company.

The Provider relationship is governed by a separate Provider Agreement, which establishes additional obligations relating to service quality, safety, compliance, earnings, performance standards, and operational requirements.

Providers retain discretion regarding their availability and acceptance of service requests. However, once a Provider accepts a service request, the Provider assumes responsibility for completing the accepted service in accordance with applicable laws, Platform standards, and reasonable professional expectations.

Providers are responsible for maintaining all requirements necessary to legally perform their services. This may include licenses, permits, insurance, equipment, tools, vehicles, professional qualifications, certifications, and compliance obligations.

The Company does not guarantee Providers any minimum level of income, number of service requests, geographical availability, or business opportunity.

The Company may establish quality standards, safety requirements, performance measurements, and operational rules designed to protect Users and maintain marketplace reliability.

Providers acknowledge that access to the Platform is conditional upon continued compliance with these Terms, the Provider Agreement, and applicable laws.

9. Service Requests and Marketplace Operations

The Platform enables Users to submit requests for available services and enables Providers to receive, review, and accept those requests.

When a User submits a Service Request, the Platform may use automated systems, location technology, availability information, historical performance data, and other operational factors to identify suitable Providers.

The matching process is designed to improve efficiency, reduce waiting times, support safety, and improve marketplace performance. Users and Providers acknowledge that matching decisions may be influenced by technology systems and business rules established by the Company.

A Service Request does not create a guaranteed obligation until accepted by an appropriate Provider or otherwise confirmed through the Platform.

The Company reserves the right to modify, delay, restrict, cancel, or discontinue any service request where necessary due to safety concerns, technical issues, legal requirements, fraud prevention measures, or operational reasons.

The Company may introduce new service categories, modify existing services, remove services, or change marketplace functionality without creating liability to Users or Providers.

10. Service Performance and Quality Expectations

The Company is committed to maintaining a reliable and professional marketplace environment. Users and Providers are expected to contribute toward safe, respectful, and efficient service experiences.

Providers are expected to perform accepted services with reasonable care, professionalism, and competence. Users are expected to provide accurate information, cooperate with Providers, and comply with reasonable service requirements.

The Company may use ratings, reviews, feedback systems, complaints, operational data, and other performance indicators to evaluate marketplace quality.

Ratings and reviews are intended to improve service standards and provide transparency. However, the Company does not guarantee that all ratings or reviews will be accurate, unbiased, or free from individual opinion.

The Company may investigate complaints and take appropriate action where service standards, safety requirements, or Platform rules have been violated.

11. Pricing, Fees, Commissions, and Charges

The Platform may facilitate transactions involving service fees, provider payments, commissions, taxes, processing charges, and other applicable amounts associated with the use of Platform services.

The Company may determine pricing structures, fee models, commission arrangements, and payment mechanisms applicable to different service categories, locations, periods, or marketplace conditions.

Prices displayed through the Platform may be calculated using various factors, including but not limited to service type, distance, duration, availability, demand, operational costs, regulatory requirements, Provider considerations, and other commercial factors determined by the Company.

The Company may provide estimated pricing before a service is confirmed. Users acknowledge that estimated pricing may differ from final charges where circumstances change during service performance, including additional distance, waiting time, additional services requested, changes in requirements, unexpected conditions, or other factors affecting the cost of service delivery.

The Company reserves the right to introduce promotional pricing, discounts, credits, loyalty programs, incentives, subscription arrangements, or other commercial offers. Such offers may be subject to additional conditions, eligibility requirements, expiration periods, geographic restrictions, or limitations.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, promotional benefits do not create a contractual entitlement and may be modified, suspended, or withdrawn by the Company where permitted by law.

Users remain responsible for all charges associated with their use of the Platform, including charges resulting from authorized account activity, completed services, applicable fees, cancellation charges, or other amounts properly incurred.

Providers acknowledge that their earnings, commissions, settlements, and deductions may be governed by separate Provider terms, commercial agreements, or payment arrangements established by the Company.

The Company may deduct applicable fees, commissions, taxes, adjustments, refunds, penalties, or other authorized amounts from Provider earnings where permitted under applicable agreements and laws.

12. Payments and Payment Processing

The Platform may provide payment facilitation services through integrated payment providers, financial institutions, mobile money operators, card processors, banks, or other authorized payment partners.

Users agree to provide accurate and valid payment information and authorize the Company and its payment partners to process charges associated with Platform usage.

The Company does not directly control the operation, availability, security, or performance of third-party payment providers. Users acknowledge that payment processing may be subject to the terms, conditions, and privacy practices of those providers.

Where payments are processed through external providers, the Company may share necessary information with such providers to facilitate secure and lawful payment transactions.

Users are responsible for ensuring sufficient funds, valid payment credentials, and authorization to use the selected payment method.

If a payment fails, is reversed, disputed, charged back, or otherwise cannot be completed, the Company may restrict account access, suspend certain features, request alternative payment methods, or take reasonable recovery actions.

The Company reserves the right to investigate suspicious payment activity, including unusual transaction patterns, fraudulent payment attempts, unauthorized payment methods, or other indicators of financial misconduct.

Users agree not to engage in fraudulent payment practices, including using stolen payment information, manipulating payment systems, initiating false chargebacks, or intentionally avoiding legitimate charges.

13. Provider Payments, Settlements, and Earnings

Providers acknowledge that the Platform may facilitate payment collection from Users and distribution of applicable earnings to Providers.

Provider earnings may be subject to deductions, including Platform commissions, applicable taxes, transaction costs, refunds, adjustments, penalties permitted under agreement, or other authorized charges.

The Company may establish payment schedules, settlement periods, minimum withdrawal requirements, payment verification requirements, and other procedures necessary for efficient financial administration.

Providers are responsible for ensuring that payment account information provided to the Company is accurate and belongs to them or their authorized business entity.

The Company shall not be responsible for delays caused by inaccurate payment information, banking failures, third-party payment providers, regulatory restrictions, or circumstances outside the Company's reasonable control.

Providers remain responsible for their own tax obligations, including declaration, payment, reporting, and compliance obligations arising from income earned through the Platform.

The Company may provide transaction records, earning statements, or summaries to assist Providers in managing their activities; however, Providers remain responsible for obtaining professional tax advice where necessary.

14. Cancellations, Failed Services, and Refunds

The Company recognizes that circumstances may arise where Users or Providers need to cancel or discontinue a service request.

Cancellation rights, applicable charges, refund eligibility, and related procedures may vary depending on the service category, timing of cancellation, reason for cancellation, marketplace conditions, and applicable commercial rules.

Users acknowledge that certain cancellations may result in charges where resources have already been allocated, where a Provider has travelled to fulfil a request, or where operational costs have already been incurred.

Providers may cancel accepted service requests only where permitted by Platform rules or where legitimate reasons exist, including safety concerns, legal restrictions, technical problems, or circumstances beyond reasonable control.

Repeated cancellations, misuse of cancellation processes, or behaviour designed to negatively affect marketplace operations may result in restrictions or account review.

Refund requests may be submitted through designated Platform channels. The Company may review relevant information, including transaction records, communication history, location data, service records, and other available evidence when determining refund eligibility.

Refund decisions are made based on fairness, applicable law, Platform policies, and the circumstances surrounding each case.

The Company does not guarantee refunds in every situation and may deny requests where evidence indicates that services were properly provided, charges were validly incurred, or refund claims are fraudulent or abusive.

15. Dispute Resolution Between Users and Providers

The Platform provides communication channels and support processes designed to assist Users and Providers in resolving disputes arising from Platform activities.

Where disagreements occur regarding service quality, payments, conduct, property issues, cancellations, or other matters, affected parties are encouraged to report the matter promptly through official Platform support channels.

The Company may investigate disputes by reviewing available evidence, including account information, transaction records, communication records, location information, photographs, submitted documents, ratings, complaints, and other relevant materials.

The Company's role in dispute resolution is to facilitate fair review and marketplace integrity. Unless expressly required by law, the Company does not act as a court, arbitrator, insurer, or legal representative for either party.

Users and Providers remain responsible for resolving disputes that fall outside the Company's operational responsibility, including disputes arising directly between independent parties.

Where appropriate, the Company may provide information, recommendations, account actions, or other measures intended to protect the Platform community.

16. Safety Standards and Responsibilities

Safety is a fundamental requirement of the Platform ecosystem. The Company implements reasonable measures intended to promote safer interactions between Users and Providers.

These measures may include identity verification processes, reporting systems, emergency assistance features, account monitoring, safety education, and operational controls.

Users and Providers acknowledge that no digital platform can eliminate all risks associated with real-world services. Participants remain responsible for exercising reasonable judgment, caution, and personal responsibility.

Providers must comply with applicable safety requirements relevant to their services, including transportation regulations, professional standards, equipment requirements, and lawful operating practices.

Users must not request services for unlawful purposes, create unsafe conditions, interfere with Provider operations, or place Providers in situations involving unreasonable risk.

Any safety incident, accident, misconduct, threat, or serious concern should be reported to the Company promptly through available reporting channels.

The Company may take protective measures, including temporary restrictions, investigations, account suspension, or cooperation with relevant authorities where necessary.

17. Prohibited Conduct and Acceptable Use Requirements

The Platform is intended to provide a trusted, professional, and lawful environment where Users and Providers can access and deliver services safely. To maintain the integrity of the marketplace, all participants must use the Platform responsibly and in accordance with applicable laws, these Terms, and all related Platform policies.

Users and Providers must not use the Platform for any unlawful, fraudulent, harmful, abusive, or unauthorized purpose. Any activity that threatens the safety, security, reliability, or reputation of the Platform or its participants may result in immediate action by the Company.

Participants must not attempt to misuse the Platform, interfere with its operation, bypass security controls, manipulate transactions, or access systems, accounts, information, or features without authorization.

Prohibited conduct includes, but is not limited to, creating false accounts, impersonating another person, providing inaccurate identity information, manipulating ratings or reviews, submitting fraudulent complaints, attempting to avoid legitimate payments, engaging in harassment, discrimination, intimidation, threats, violence, or any conduct that creates an unsafe environment.

Users must not use the Platform to request or facilitate illegal activities, prohibited goods or services, fraudulent transactions, unauthorized commercial activities, or any activity that violates Ghanaian law or applicable international legal requirements.

Providers must not misrepresent qualifications, licenses, service capabilities, availability, pricing, or other information provided through the Platform. Providers must not accept service requests they cannot reasonably complete or perform services in a manner that violates safety requirements or professional standards.

The Company reserves the right to determine whether conduct violates these Terms based on available evidence, operational information, complaints, investigations, and applicable legal standards.

Where violations occur, the Company may take actions including warnings, restrictions, temporary suspension, permanent account termination, removal of content, withholding of certain Platform privileges, or cooperation with law enforcement or regulatory authorities where appropriate.

18. Fraud Prevention and Marketplace Integrity

The Company maintains systems and procedures designed to detect, prevent, and respond to fraudulent activities within the Platform ecosystem.

Fraud may include, but is not limited to, identity fraud, payment fraud, account manipulation, false service requests, fake transactions, unauthorized account access, abuse of promotional offers, manipulation of performance systems, fraudulent claims, or any attempt to obtain unauthorized financial or operational benefits.

Users and Providers agree to cooperate with reasonable fraud prevention measures implemented by the Company. These measures may include identity verification, transaction monitoring, account reviews, security checks, additional authentication requirements, and investigation processes.

The Company may temporarily restrict accounts, delay payments, request additional documentation, or suspend transactions where suspicious activity is identified.

The Company is not obligated to disclose all fraud detection methods, security procedures, algorithms, risk indicators, or internal monitoring systems, as disclosure may compromise marketplace security.

Participants must promptly report suspected fraud, unauthorized access, or suspicious activity affecting their accounts or the Platform.

Where fraud is confirmed, the Company may recover losses, reverse unauthorized transactions where possible, terminate accounts, and pursue available legal remedies.

19. Data Protection and Privacy

The Company recognizes the importance of protecting personal information and is committed to handling personal data responsibly and lawfully.

The collection, use, storage, disclosure, and protection of personal data through the Platform are governed by the Company's Privacy Policy and applicable jurisdiction data protection requirements.

By using the Platform, Users and Providers acknowledge that certain personal information may be collected and processed to enable Platform operations, including account creation, identity verification, service matching, communication, payment processing, safety monitoring, customer support, fraud prevention, legal compliance, and service improvement.

The types of information processed may include identification information, contact details, transaction information, location information, device information, communication records, payment-related information, service history, ratings, reviews, and other information necessary for legitimate Platform purposes.

The Company may share personal information with carefully selected third parties where necessary to provide services, process payments, maintain security, comply with legal obligations, support operations, or protect the rights and safety of Platform participants.

The Company does not sell personal information in violation of applicable data protection laws.

Users and Providers may have rights relating to their personal information, including rights of access, correction, objection, restriction, or other rights provided under applicable law.

The Company implements reasonable administrative, technical, and organizational safeguards designed to protect personal information against unauthorized access, loss, misuse, alteration, or disclosure.

However, Users and Providers acknowledge that no digital system can guarantee absolute security, and they remain responsible for protecting their own account credentials and personal information.

20. Communications and Electronic Notices

By using the Platform, you consent to receiving communications from the Company relating to your account, services, transactions, safety matters, legal updates, operational notices, and other Platform-related matters.

Communications may be delivered through application notifications, email, SMS, telephone calls, messaging systems, or other electronic communication methods.

You are responsible for maintaining accurate contact information and ensuring that communications sent by the Company can be received.

Electronic communications sent through the Platform may constitute valid notice where permitted by applicable law.

The Company may send operational messages necessary for service delivery, including booking confirmations, payment notifications, service updates, account security alerts, and policy changes.

Marketing communications may be managed separately in accordance with applicable consent requirements and privacy preferences.

21. Intellectual Property Rights

Subject to compliance with these Terms, the Company grants Users and Providers a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to access and use the Platform solely for its intended purpose.

Users and Providers must not copy, modify, reverse engineer, distribute, sell, license, reproduce, extract, or commercially exploit any part of the Platform without prior written authorization from the Company.

Any suggestions, feedback, ideas, improvements, or recommendations provided to the Company regarding the Platform may be used by the Company without creating ownership obligations unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Users and Providers retain ownership of content they independently create and submit through the Platform, subject to granting the Company necessary rights to operate, improve, promote, and maintain the Platform.

Such rights are limited to legitimate Platform purposes and do not transfer ownership of User or Provider content.

22. Third-Party Services and External Links

The Platform may integrate or interact with third-party services, including payment providers, mapping services, communication providers, identity verification services, cloud infrastructure providers, analytics providers, and other technology partners.

Third-party services may operate under separate terms, conditions, privacy policies, and legal agreements.

The Company does not control all aspects of third-party services and is not responsible for failures, interruptions, errors, security issues, or practices outside its reasonable control.

Users and Providers acknowledge that use of certain third-party services may require acceptance of additional agreements.

The inclusion of third-party services does not constitute endorsement, guarantee, or assumption of responsibility by the Company unless expressly stated.

23. Platform Availability, Technology, and Service Limitations

The Company is committed to maintaining a reliable and effective technology platform that enables Users and Providers to access marketplace services. However, Users and Providers acknowledge that the Platform depends on complex technology systems, telecommunications networks, internet connectivity, third-party services, and other infrastructure that may experience interruptions or limitations.

The Company does not guarantee that the Platform will always be available, uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or free from technical issues. Temporary interruptions may occur due to maintenance, software updates, security measures, technical failures, network disruptions, regulatory requirements, or circumstances outside the Company's reasonable control.

The Company may modify, upgrade, suspend, restrict, or discontinue certain Platform features, services, or functionality where necessary for operational, commercial, technical, legal, or security reasons.

The Company may introduce updates, improvements, changes to user interfaces, adjustments to service categories, or modifications to marketplace operations without requiring prior approval from Users or Providers.

However, the Company is not required to provide advance notice where immediate action is necessary due to safety concerns, legal obligations, fraud prevention, or serious violations.

Termination of an account does not remove obligations that arose before termination, including payment obligations, confidentiality obligations, indemnification obligations, or legal responsibilities.

29. Account Closure and Effects of Termination

Users and Providers may request closure of their accounts subject to completion of outstanding obligations.

Account closure does not automatically erase transaction records, financial records, legal documents, communications, or information that the Company is required or permitted to retain under applicable laws and legitimate business purposes.

Following account closure, certain information may remain stored in accordance with the Company's Privacy Policy, records retention obligations, regulatory requirements, fraud prevention procedures, and dispute resolution needs.

Where an account has been terminated due to violations of these Terms, the Company may restrict the creation of replacement accounts or prevent continued access to Platform services.

30. Records, Electronic Transactions, and Document Retention

The Company may retain records for periods necessary to comply with applicable laws, protect legal rights, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, maintain financial records, support business operations, and satisfy regulatory requirements.

The Company's handling and retention of personal information shall be conducted in accordance with its Privacy Policy and applicable Ghanaian data protection requirements.

Users and Providers acknowledge that certain records may be retained after account closure where retention is legally required or reasonably necessary for legitimate business purposes.

The Company may provide copies of relevant records where required by law or where appropriate under its internal procedures. Requests for records must follow applicable verification and security procedures.

31. Confidentiality Obligations

During the use of the Platform, Users and Providers may receive, access, or become aware of confidential information belonging to the Company, other Users, Providers, or third parties.

Confidential information may include personal information, business information, pricing information, operational information, technical information, customer information, commercial strategies, security information, and other information that is not publicly available.

Users and Providers agree to protect confidential information and must not disclose, misuse, sell, distribute, or use such information for purposes unrelated to legitimate Platform activities.

Confidential information may only be disclosed where:

• the disclosure is required by law;
• the disclosure is necessary to perform obligations under this Agreement;
• the information has become publicly available through no breach of confidentiality;
• the Company or relevant party has provided written authorization.

Providers must take particular care when handling User information obtained through service requests. Such information must only be used for completing authorized services and must not be used for unrelated communications, marketing, harassment, or any unauthorized purpose.

These confidentiality obligations continue after termination of account access or the end of the relationship between the parties.

32. Regulatory Compliance and Legal Obligations

The Company is committed to operating the Platform in accordance with applicable laws, regulations, industry standards, and regulatory expectations within any jurisdiction where the Platform operates.

Users and Providers agree to comply with all laws applicable to their activities conducted through the Platform.

Depending on the nature of services provided, compliance obligations may include requirements relating to transportation, road safety, taxation, licensing, employment laws, consumer protection, data protection, cybersecurity, financial transactions, professional standards, and business registration.

Providers remain responsible for obtaining and maintaining all approvals, registrations, permits, licenses, certifications, and insurance required to legally provide their services.

Users remain responsible for complying with laws relating to their use of the Platform, including lawful service requests, payment obligations, and respectful conduct.

The Company may cooperate with regulators, law enforcement agencies, courts, government authorities, and other lawful bodies where required or permitted.

Where regulatory requirements change, the Company may modify Platform operations, policies, procedures, or these Terms to maintain compliance.

33. Anti-Fraud, Anti-Corruption, and Ethical Conduct

The Company maintains a commitment to ethical business practices and expects all Platform participants to act honestly, fairly, and responsibly.

Users and Providers must not engage in bribery, corruption, fraud, extortion, manipulation, or any activity intended to improperly influence another person or obtain an unfair advantage.

Providers must not offer improper payments, gifts, incentives, or benefits to Company employees, Users, other Providers, or third parties to manipulate Platform decisions, ratings, access, payments, or opportunities.

Users and Providers must not engage in practices intended to manipulate marketplace systems, including artificial demand creation, false bookings, fraudulent reviews, account sharing, or unauthorized transactions.

The Company may investigate suspected misconduct and take appropriate action, including account restrictions, termination, recovery actions, and reporting to relevant authorities where required.

34. Force Majeure

The Company shall not be responsible for delays, interruptions, failures, or inability to perform obligations under these Terms where such circumstances result from events beyond its reasonable control.

Such events may include natural disasters, government restrictions, regulatory actions, public emergencies, pandemics, telecommunications failures, internet disruptions, cyber incidents, labour disputes, civil unrest, security threats, failures of third-party providers, or other circumstances beyond reasonable control.

Where a force majeure event occurs, the Company may take reasonable steps to reduce disruption and restore Platform functionality as soon as practicable.

The occurrence of a force majeure event does not remove obligations that arose before the event occurred, including payment obligations, confidentiality obligations, and legal responsibilities.

35. Amendments to These Terms

The Company may update or amend these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in business operations, technology, legal requirements, regulatory expectations, or marketplace needs.

Where changes are material, the Company may provide reasonable notice through the Platform, email, application notifications, or other communication channels.

Updated Terms become effective upon publication unless a later effective date is specified.

Your continued use of the Platform after changes become effective constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

If you do not agree with updated Terms, your remedy is to discontinue use of the Platform and close your account.

36. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Ghana.

The parties acknowledge that the legal relationship established through this Agreement is subject to Ghanaian law, including applicable legislation relating to electronic transactions, data protection, cybersecurity, payments, consumer protection, transportation, and commercial activities.

Where the Platform operates in additional jurisdictions, additional legal requirements may apply. However, unless otherwise stated, this Agreement shall remain primarily governed by Ghanaian law.

37. Dispute Resolution

The Company encourages Users and Providers to resolve disputes through good-faith communication and available Platform support channels before pursuing formal legal action.

Where disputes cannot be resolved informally, the parties may seek resolution through appropriate legal procedures available under Ghanaian law.

Nothing in these Terms prevents any party from seeking urgent legal remedies where necessary to protect rights, prevent harm, or address unlawful conduct.

The parties agree that courts of competent jurisdiction in Ghana shall have authority to resolve disputes arising from or connected with this Agreement, subject to any alternative dispute resolution procedures agreed separately.

38. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision shall be interpreted or modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable.

The remaining provisions shall continue to remain valid and enforceable.

The failure of the Company to enforce any provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of its right to enforce that provision in the future.

39. Entire Agreement

These Terms constitute the complete agreement between you and the Company regarding your use of the Platform.

These Terms replace and supersede any previous discussions, communications, understandings, or agreements relating to the subject matter covered by this Agreement.

Additional agreements, including Provider Agreements, Privacy Policies, Payment Terms, Refund Policies, Community Standards, and other Platform documents, form part of the overall contractual framework governing Platform use.
