Agreement
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of MarketMate (the “Service”), operated by MHinnovations (“we”, “us”, “our”) from Toronto, Ontario. By accessing or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
The Service
MarketMate provides tools to create and publish public storefront-style pages that organize and link to your listings. For typical use, items are associated with links to third-party marketplaces (such as Facebook Marketplace). The Service does not process checkout for physical goods and is not a marketplace for transactions. Buyers complete purchases, messaging, and disputes on the relevant third-party platforms, subject to those platforms’ rules.
Accounts
You must provide accurate information and safeguard your credentials. You are responsible for activity under your account. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms or pose risk to the Service or others.
Subscriptions and fees
Paid plans, if offered, are billed through our payment processor (for example Stripe). Fees, renewals, trials, and taxes are as presented at checkout or in your account. You authorize us and our payment partners to charge your payment method. You may cancel according to the cancellation flow we provide; cancellation does not necessarily entitle you to a refund except as required by law or expressly stated at purchase.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the Service in violation of applicable law or third-party rights;
- Upload malware, attempt to gain unauthorized access, or disrupt the Service;
- Misrepresent listings, prices, availability, or your identity;
- Scrape, overload, or automate access in a way that impairs the Service without permission;
- Use the Service to facilitate fraud, spam, or deceptive practices.
Third-party platforms, Meta / Facebook, and trademarks
No affiliation or endorsement. The Service is an independent product operated by MHinnovations. We are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Meta Platforms, Inc., Facebook, Instagram, or their affiliates (collectively, “Meta” for purposes of this section). Any references to Meta brands (for example “Facebook” or “Facebook Marketplace”) are for identification only.
Trademarks. “Facebook”, “Meta”, “Instagram”, and related marks are trademarks of Meta Platforms, Inc. and its affiliates. All other trademarks are the property of their respective owners.
Your compliance. You are solely responsible for your use of Meta products and services, including compliance with Meta’s Terms of Service, Community Standards, Commerce Policies, Marketplace rules, and any other applicable policies, as updated from time to time. We do not control Meta’s enforcement, product changes, outages, or data practices.
No liability for third parties. We are not responsible for third-party platforms, listing availability, buyer or seller conduct, disputes, chargebacks, or enforcement actions by Meta or others. Your relationship with Meta is strictly between you and Meta.
Intellectual property
The Service, including its software, branding, and content we provide (excluding your content), is owned by us or our licensors. You retain ownership of content you submit; you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive license to host, reproduce, and display that content as needed to operate and improve the Service.
Disclaimers
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF HARMFUL COMPONENTS.
Limitation of liability
TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, MHinnovations AND ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AND SUPPLIERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR (B) ONE HUNDRED CANADIAN DOLLARS (CAD $100), EXCEPT WHERE PROHIBITED BY LAW (FOR EXAMPLE, CONSUMER PROTECTION LAWS MAY NOT ALLOW CERTAIN LIMITATIONS).
Liability caps and exclusions vary by jurisdiction; counsel should tailor this section for Ontario/Canada consumer law.
Indemnity
You will defend and indemnify MHinnovations and its affiliates, directors, officers, employees, and agents against any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your content, your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law, except to the extent caused by our gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).
Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of Province of Ontario, Canada, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to mandatory consumer protections that may apply where you reside, you agree that the courts located in Province of Ontario, Canada will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes, except where applicable law requires otherwise.
Changes
We may modify these Terms by posting an updated version and updating the “Last updated” date. If changes are material, we will provide notice as required by law. Continued use after the effective date may constitute acceptance.
Privacy
Our collection and use of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy.
