Tradeit is an e-commerce platform that provides the tools and technology for Zimbabwean Sellers to set up an online store and sell products and services to the general public. While we believe the free and open exchange of ideas and products is a key tenet of commerce, there are some activities that are incompatible with Tradeit’s mission to make the Marketplace usable by everyone. This Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP”) describes activities that are prohibited in connection with Your use of the Services.

1. Scope of the Acceptable Use Policy

The AUP applies to the Services provided through the Marketplace, where Participants can engage in commercial sale and purchase transactions of certain products and services. This AUP complements, is in addition to and is part of the obligations set forth in the Marketplace Terms and Conditions.
