This is draft placeholder text. Replace with finalized legal copy before launch.
1. Introduction
Welcome to Shaar ("Shaar", "we", "us"). By accessing or using our marketplace, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the service.
2. User accounts
You must be at least 18 years old to create an account. You are responsible for keeping your credentials secure and for all activity under your account. Shaar may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
3. Listings policy
Sellers are responsible for the accuracy, legality and ownership of any item listed. Listings must include clear photos, an honest description, and a fair price. Misleading listings will be removed.
4. Prohibited items
The following may not be listed: weapons, drugs, counterfeit goods, stolen items, hazardous materials, live animals (outside the regulated Pets category), human remains, and any item prohibited by EU or local law.
5. Payments and escrow
Buyer payments are held in escrow by Shaar's licensed payment provider until delivery is confirmed. Shaar charges a 3% transaction fee on completed orders. Refunds are processed to the original payment method.
6. Dispute resolution
If a buyer and seller cannot resolve a problem directly, either party may open a dispute within 14 days of delivery. Shaar will review evidence from both sides and issue a binding decision within one business day.
7. Privacy
Your personal data is handled in line with our Privacy Policy. We comply with GDPR and never sell user data to third parties.
