Ebeosi Sellers Accounts Terms and
Conditions
These Ebeosi Sellers Accounts Terms &
Conditions (the "Agreement") are between Ebeosi Ltd (“Ebeosi,” “we,”
“us,” or “our”) and the entity registering for a Business Account (“Customer”,
“you” or “your”).
PURPOSE OF AGREEMENT
This Agreement governs your access to, use
of, and transactions made through Ebeosi Sellers’ platform. “Ebeosi Seller”
enables registered business customers to sell products and services to major
distributors and wholesalers and to access and use a set of features, services,
software, and applications specifically intended for business customers. We may
make available to you, through Ebeosi Seller Central, certain services or
products that are subject to additional terms and conditions, and if you use
such Services or purchase such products, those terms and conditionswill also
apply to you. Products made available through Ebeosi Sellers may be designed
for, and only appropriate for, specialized uses; accordingly, you may only use
them as intended by, and in compliance with all instructions provided by, the
manufacturer. Finally, certain policies accessible through Ebeosi Sellers apply
to you and your users’ use of and access to Ebeosi Seller. These “Policies”
include the Ebeosi Sellers Acceptable Use Policy, the Ebeosi Seller Pricing
Policy, the Ebeosi Sellers Sanctions and Export Policy, and the Ebeosi.com.ng
Privacy Notice. This Agreement incorporates by reference the Feature Terms and
the Policies.
ELIGIBILITY ACCOUNT SECURITY
By creating a Sellers Account, you represent
that (i) the individual acting on behalf of the Customer has the authority to
bind the Customer, (ii) the Customer has all requisite right, power, and
authority to enter into, perform its obligations under, and grant the rights
and authorizations in the Agreement, and (iii) the Customer is an Eligible
Entity. “Eligible Entities” include all types of businesses (for example, LLCs,
LLPs, corporations, partnerships, sole proprietorships, and PLLCs), all types
of governmental entities (Federal, State, Local, and quasi-governmental
entities), and all types of non-profit organizations (including 501(c)
organizations, 527 organizations, and similar tax-exempt organizations).
Individual consumers should use Ebeosi.com.ng. Upon completion of your
registration, a “Sellers Account” will be created for your organization. You
may authorize others to create a “User Account” associated with your Sellers
Account. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your Sellers
Account and any associated User Accounts and must ensure your Users comply with
the Acceptable Use Policy and this Agreement. You are responsible for
maintaining the security of the passwords associated with your Sellers Account
and User Accounts; if you believe an unauthorized person has access to your
password, Sellers Account, or an associated User Account, you must contact us
immediately and change any compromised passwords.
SHIPPING; RETURNS; REPLACEMENT
CHARGES; PAYMENT METHODS; TAXES
Your purchases are subject to Ebeosi’s
Shipping and Returns Policies. All purchases of physical items from Ebeosi are
made pursuant to a shipment contract. This means that the risk of loss and
title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier. Unless you
are participating in the Pay by Invoice service, payment for all purchases made
through your Sellers Account is due upon shipment or on the date indicated on
the checkout page, or, for digital products, when we make the digital product
available to you. For returns, Ebeosi does not take title to returned items
until the item arrives at our fulfillment center. At our discretion, a refund
may be issued without requiring a return. In this situation, Ebeosi does not
take title to the refunded item. To Sell through Ebeosi Sellers, you will need
at least one valid payment method associated with your Business Account; if
there is a problem charging your selected payment method for any Commission, we
may charge any other valid payment method associated with your Sellers Account.
If we send any User a replacement product for a product they originally ordered
using an individual payment method (such as a personal credit card) and the
original product ordered is not returned within 30 days of the replacement
request, you acknowledge and consent that we may charge any eligible payment
method on record for the relevant User Account for the replacement product.
Each party will be responsible, as required under applicable law, for
identifying and paying all taxes and other governmental fees and charges (and
any penalties, interest, and other additions thereto) that are imposed on that
party upon or with respect to the transactions and payments under this
Agreement.

AS TO SUCH INFORMATION, CONTENT, MATERIALS, PRODUCTS (INCLUDING SOFTWARE) OR

CUSTOMER INFORMATION, PRIVACY,
CONFIDENTIALITY
Customer Information: We require you to
provide information about you and your Users to access and use Ebeosi Sellers
Central, and you may need to provide supplemental information to use or sell
some Ebeosi seller's products or services. You will ensure that all information
that you provide to us is at all times accurate and complete. We may share
information you provide (for example, your organization’s name, addresses,
Taxpayer Identification Number) with others in your organization and third
parties to confirm the accuracy of such information and your eligibility to use
Ebeosi Sellers or certain services (for example, to confirm you hold a valid
license, certification, or credential where required). To enable us to improve
our services, including by making available additional product selection or
business pricing, we may share specific order information about the products or
services you Sell through your Sellers Account with any third-party software
partners who provide such products or services. For example, for certain
transactions, Ebeosi Sellers Central may share your organization’s name or
credentials, shipping address, shipment date, ASIN/SKU, quantity or other relevant
information.
Privacy: Except as disclosed
in this Agreement, our use of your information is governed by the terms of the
Ebeosi.com.ng Privacy Notice. Please review the Privacy Notice to understand
our practices with respect to your information. Please note that all
information about Users and User Accounts associated with a Business Account
may be shared with your organization.
Confidentiality: In connection with
your use of Ebeosi Sellers, we may share with you information that is
identified as confidential or that should reasonably be considered confidential
(“Confidential Information”). You will take all reasonable measures to avoid
disclosure, dissemination or unauthorized use of Confidential Information,
including, at a minimum, those measures you take to protect your own
confidential information of a similar nature. You may use Confidential
Information only in connection with your use of Ebeosi Sellers. You will not
disclose Confidential Information during the term of this Agreement or at any time
during the 5-year period following the termination of the Agreement unless
required by law. This applies to all Confidential Information in your
possession, regardless of when or where you receive it.
GOVERNING LAW, DISPUTES, GOVERNMENTAL
ENTITIES.
Governing Law: The laws of Abia
State of Nigeria, without reference to conflict of law rules, as well as the
Federal Arbitration Act and Federal Arbitration Law, govern this Agreement and
any dispute that might arise between you and us that pertains to Ebeosi Sellers
or this Agreement. The United Nations Convention for the International
Sale of Goods does not apply to the Agreement.
Disputes: Any dispute or
claim relating in any way to Ebeosi Sellers or this Agreement will be resolved
by binding Arbitration. To begin an Arbitration proceeding, you must send a
letter requesting Arbitration and describing your claim to our Legal Partners, Maple
Partnership, 27/29 Odunlami Street, Lagos Island, Lagos State. The arbitration
will be conducted by the Nigerian Arbitration Association. An arbitrator can
award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including
injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages). You may choose to have
the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or at a
mutually agreed location. Both parties agree that any dispute resolution
proceedings will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class,
consolidated or representative action. If for any reason, a claim proceeds in
court rather than in arbitration, both parties agree to waive any rights to a
jury trial. Both parties agree that either party may bring a suit in court to
enjoin infringement or other misuses of intellectual property rights.
Public Sector Entities: If you are a public
sector entity and precluded by law from agreeing to any of the provisions of
Section 8 as set forth above, then any disputes with you will be governed by
the substantive laws of the sovereign under whose laws you were formed and the
venue for any such dispute will be the venue required by the laws of such
sovereign. Similarly, if the laws of such sovereign would result in other
provisions in this Agreement being deemed unlawful, void or for any reason
unenforceable against you, those provisions will not apply to you and will be
deemed severable from this Agreement. All other provisions in the Agreement
remain in full force and effect.
