Terms & Conditions
SCBAOW provides an online platform that connects Sellers with Buyers seeking to sell and/or buy wedding, bridesmaid, prom, mother-of-the-bride and other special occasion wear (collectively, the "Goods" and, together with the platform itself, the "Services"). The Services are accessible through written communication with SC Occasions, at https://www.scoccasions.co.uk and any other websites through which SC Occasions makes the Services available (collectively, the "Site") and any applications for mobile, tablet and other smart devices and application program interfaces which SCBAOW makes available (collectively, the "Platform").
In these Terms and Conditions "you" or "your" means any unregistered user of the Platform or any Member of the Platform, as the context requires. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions obliges SCBAOW to make the Services available at any time or by any technological or direct means.
These Terms and Conditions incorporate our Privacy Policy and any other Policies, including the Seller Policy and the Buyer Policy, displayed on the Site or otherwise communicated by SCBAOW from time to time to Members. In the event of inconsistency, these Terms and Conditions prevail over any Policies.
Warning: Platform
The site and services comprise an online platform by which Sellers may create sales listings for Goods and Buyers may learn about and purchase Goods from Sellers via approved payment methods or cash. SCBAOW does not own the Goods. SCBAOW is not a party to any sale and/or purchase of Goods between Members and has no control and does not verify the suitability or ranking of the Member; the truth or accuracy of Member Content; sales listings; ability of Sellers to sell Goods; ability of Buyers to pay for Goods; or that a Seller or Buyer will actually complete a transaction or return Goods.
The services provided by SCBAOW in connection with the Platform are limited to the enabling of the sale and/or purchase of Goods (excluding the collection and remittance of fees and delivery and return of Goods) pursuant to these Terms and Conditions. SCBAOW disclaims all liability in this regard to the maximum extent permitted by law.
Warning: Compliance with Laws, Fees and Charges
Members are wholly responsible for ensuring that their use of the Platform and sale and/or purchase of Goods comply with applicable regulations, laws and third-party agreements. You will be wholly responsible for any additional fees and charges incurred by you in connection with the Platform and/or sale and/or purchase of the Goods (whether arising directly or indirectly).
