MeRise Seller Agreement

Introduction:

Welcome to Merise, accessible through our website located at www.merise.io (the "Platform") owned solely and exclusively by Macmerise Celfie Design Pvt. Ltd. (the “Company”). This User Agreement governs the relationship between you as a Seller on the Platform through the microsite ("Seller," "you," and "your") and Merise ("we," "us," and "our").
As a Seller on the Platform and Microsite, you acknowledge and agree that utilizing the Platform and its services, including uploading, publishing, posting, or generating content, such as graphics, images, art, logos, designs, or any other material ("Content"), carries significant legal responsibilities. It is your sole responsibility to ensure that your use of the Platform, including publishing your Content, offering products for sale that incorporate your Content ("Products"), and utilizing the microsite provided by Merise (the "Microsite"), complies with all applicable laws, regulations, and intellectual property rights.
The Services provided by Merise (“Merise Services”) on this Platform encompasses creation of Microsite, manufacture and distribution of Sellers' Products by the Company or third parties, payment processing by third parties, discretionary marketing and promotional activities of Sellers, and customer service.
The Microsite, created and managed by Merise on behalf of Sellers, serves as a dedicated platform for the sales and promotion of your Products. You understand that Merise retains ownership and control over the Microsite and grants you a non-exclusive license to use the Microsite solely for the purpose of selling your Products on the Microsite.
When a Buyer places an order for a Seller's Product through the Microsite, the Company will either manufacture and distribute the products by itself or forward the order information to independent third-party fulfillers ("Fulfillers") who will manufacture and ship the Product according to the specifications provided by the Seller and their Buyer.
Please note that the Seller is solely responsible for the accuracy, legality, and quality of the Content and the Products you offer through your Microsite.

Content and Product Responsibility:

All Sellers and Users should be aware that Merise does not prescreen all the Content or Products that Sellers upload to or generate on the Microsite. While Merise does not permit unlawful Content or Products on the microsite, we cannot guarantee that each Seller complies with this User Agreement or the law at all times. Sellers are solely responsible for their Content and Products and for possessing the necessary rights to the Products they offer. They are also best positioned to respond to inquiries regarding their Content and Products.
This responsibility between Sellers and Merise is specifically applicable to the Microsite provided by Merise. The Microsite serves as a dedicated platform for Sellers to showcase, promote, and sell their Products on the Platform. Merise takes no ownership or control over the Content and Products uploaded by Sellers on the Microsite. However, Merise reserves the right to enforce compliance with this User Agreement and applicable laws and regulations for the Content and Products displayed on the microsite.
Please note that while Merise strives to maintain a lawful and safe environment on the microsite, it is the Seller's sole responsibility to ensure that their Content and Products comply with all relevant laws, regulations, intellectual property rights, and other legal obligations. Sellers are also responsible for addressing any inquiries or concerns related to their Content and Products on the microsite.
