You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized access to your account or any other security breach by emailing security@tradicomm.com.

You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account, whether or not you authorized it.

5. User content and conduct

You retain ownership of content you create on the Platform (product listings, messages, photos). By posting content, you grant Hiveootech Ltd a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to host, transmit, display, and index that content solely for the purpose of operating the Platform.

  • Infringing of intellectual property rights
  • Spam, phishing, or malware
  • Sexually explicit material involving minors (a criminal offence under the Cybercrimes Act 2015)

6. Commerce on the Platform

Merchants are independent businesses. Hiveootech Ltd facilitates the Platform on which Merchants list and sell but is not a party to any Merchant–Buyer contract.

Refund, return, and cancellation policies are set by individual Merchants. TRADICOMM provides dispute-resolution tooling but does not adjudicate every dispute and does not guarantee outcomes.

Merchants are responsible for ensuring that listed products and services comply with all applicable Nigerian laws, including consumer-protection, product-safety, and import/export regulations.

7. Logistics and fulfillment

Fulfillers are independent contractors verified by Hiveootech Ltd. They are not employees or agents of Hiveootech Ltd.

Photo-confirmed handover is required on all deliveries facilitated by the Platform. Funds held in escrow are released only on confirmed receipt.

Hiveootech Ltd may offer insurance and compensation options for lost or damaged deliveries at its discretion. Terms of any such scheme will be disclosed at the point of purchase.

8. Payments

Payments on the Platform are processed via licensed Nigerian payment service providers (PSPs). Hiveootech Ltd does not store full payment card data.

Platform fees and transaction charges will be disclosed at checkout before any payment is completed. By proceeding with a payment, you confirm you have reviewed and accept the applicable fees.

Chargebacks and refunds are handled in accordance with the policies of the relevant PSP and the specific Merchant involved.

9. Intellectual property

The TRADICOMM brand name, logos, trademarks, software, product designs, and all associated intellectual property are owned by Hiveootech Ltd. No license is granted to you except the limited right to use the Platform for its intended purpose. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or reverse-engineer any part of the Platform.

10. Termination

Hiveootech Ltd may suspend or permanently terminate your account if you violate these Terms, engage in fraudulent activity, or use the Platform in a manner that harms other Users or third parties.

You may close your account at any time by contacting hello@tradicomm.com. On closure, we will process data deletion in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

11. Disclaimers

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR UNINTERRUPTED AVAILABILITY. HIVEOOTECH LTD DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PLATFORM WILL BE ERROR-FREE OR CONTINUOUSLY AVAILABLE.

To the maximum extent permitted by Nigerian law, Hiveootech Ltd shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of profits or revenue, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Platform, even if Hiveootech Ltd has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
