2WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR PRODUCTS YOU SELL VIA OUR PLATFORMS
2.1The Site is a marketplace for you to list and sell UK CA-marked steel products (the “Products”) to consumers and businesses alike (the “Buyers” and each a “Buyer”). Your Products will also be marketed to customer users via our mobile application software, BuyABeam version 3.0 (the “App”), (the Site and App together, our “Platforms”). We are neither a buyer nor a seller and we are not acting as your agent.
2.2If you proceed to sell Products through the Site, you will enter into a separate contract solely with the Buyer. Your contract with the Buyer must incorporate the terms of sale set out in the Schedule to these Terms (which will be made available for download once you accept our Terms) or, if you trade with the Buyer on your own terms of sale, you must ensure that they are no less onerous than, and include as a minimum substantially similar provisions as, the terms set out in the Schedule. Whether you use the terms of sale set out in the Schedule to these Terms or your own terms of sale, you are solely responsible for ensuring that they are suitable for your particular business purposes and for seeking such legal advice on your trading terms as you consider appropriate.
2.3We do not assume any responsibility nor make any representation, warranty or guarantee, whether express or implied, as to the Products.
