Welcome to Dezamarket! Please take a moment to review our Privacy Policy carefully. Your engagement with the Dezamarket website and platform implies your consent to abide by this Privacy Policy.

1. Information Provided Through the Service:

When using Dezamarket, you are bound by our platform policies, which encompass directives regarding prohibited items, services, and our code of conduct. You can find these policies on our website.

3. Registration; Usernames and Passwords:

To fully utilize Dezamarket, you may find it necessary to complete a registration process. We retain the right to reject or request alterations to your registration details.

4. Product Listings:

Dezamarket serves as a platform enabling users to create and browse product listings. It is important to note that these listings are the creations of users, not Dezamarket. We do not partake in the sale, rental, or provision of any products. Except as expressly outlined in this Privacy Policy, we bear no responsibility for these product listings. It is strongly advised to exercise prudence and employ common sense when engaging in transactions related to product listings.

The presence or promotion of any product listing on Dezamarket should not be construed as an endorsement on our part. Information associated with listings is subject to change without prior notice, and we retain the authority to remove listings for any reason.

By publishing a product listing, you affirm that you possess the requisite authority and permissions to do so.

5. Submissions:

You have the option to submit information that personally identifies you through product listings and various interactive channels on Dezamarket. You are fully responsible for your submissions. We do not exert control over how third parties may employ or misuse your submissions.

6. License:

While you maintain ownership of your submissions, you grant us an international, royalty-free, non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, and sublicensable license to utilize your submissions for a variety of purposes, including promotional activities. Should you furnish us with feedback, it will be categorized as a submission, and you bestow similar rights upon us.

By making these grants, you affirm that you hold the requisite rights to confer these licenses and that your submissions are comprehensive, accurate, and in compliance with applicable laws.

7. Oversight:

We retain the prerogative to monitor, assess, amend, or delete your postings on Dezamarket and to evaluate your usage of the platform. We may disclose information pertaining to your Dezamarket usage to any party for any reason or purpose, all in accordance with our Disclosure Statement.
