Terms & Conditions
Effective Date: June 26, 2024
Welcome to Selah! We are so grateful you have joined our community. For everyone to enjoy the community, we require all of our users to comply with our terms and conditions.
These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) apply to your access to and use of Selah’s Service (as defined below). Please read them carefully. We have included annotations in italics for each section to help guide you as you read the Terms. These annotations are not complete summaries, so please read everything.
1. Your Acceptance of These Terms
This section describes how these Terms form a binding contract between you and us. If you use the service on behalf of a legal entity, the legal entity also agrees to these Terms.
These Terms are a legally binding contract (“Agreement”) between you and Selah. When we say “you” or “your,” we mean you individually and any legal entity exercising rights under this Agreement through you. When we say “Selah,” “we,” “our,” or “us,” we mean © 2024, Selah.
By accessing and/or using the Service, you agree to be bound by this Agreement and any policies or guidelines incorporated by reference into this Agreement (which will become part of the Agreement). If you do not agree to abide by all of the terms and conditions in this Agreement, you must not access and/or use the Service. You represent that you have the authority to bind yourself to this Agreement. If you access and/or use the Service on behalf of a legal entity, then you represent that you have authority to bind that legal entity to this Agreement and that the legal entity accepts this Agreement.
This Agreement applies to the Selah platform and all related content, tools, features, and services, including the Selah website located at https://shop-selah.com (collectively, the “Service”). The Service provides an online social marketplace where users of the Service (“Users”) can list and sell items (“Items”). When Users purchase Items, they are “Renters,” and when Users sell Items, they are “Sellers.” Users may, at different times, be both Renters and Sellers on the Service. By using the Service, Renters and Sellers enter into a contract for the sale and purchase of Items directly between themselves, and Selah is not a party to such sale or purchase.
Please read this Agreement carefully as it, to the extent legally allowable under Israeli law, requires you and Selah to resolve most disputes solely through arbitration on an individual basis and not as a class arbitration, class action, or any other kind of representative proceeding. Selah will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with the Agreement.
