You assume to take full responsibility for the accuracy of all your product listings. Any false or fraudulent listings will be removed. Any content that violates any of Vendre’s policies may be removed at Vendre’s sole discretion. Vendre reserves the right to modify or remove any and all parts of a product listings. Modifications to your list may include changing the product description including size, color, brand name, etc. and in some cases modifying the price.
If you learn that a product you have listed has been recalled by the government or a manufacturer for any reason, you will promptly remove all listings of that product. You agree to make reasonable efforts to keep yourself well-appraised of recalls pertaining to your products. Upon removing the product from Vendre, you agree to comply with applicable law regarding further actions concerning the recalled products.

4. Fees, Payments and Taxes
Vendre does not charge listing fees or transaction fees. Vendre only charges a commission percentage of 20% for every sale. Posted prices do not include taxes or charges for shipping and handling. All sellers will be required to create an account through PayPal, and Vendre will remit all payments to sellers for commissions owed to your designated bank account through PayPal less any refunds, cancellations or adjustments (“Sales Proceeds”). We reserve the right to change the method of payment at our sole discretion, though we will give you reasonable notice of any changes.
Vendre does not collect and store credit card information. Instead, Vendre uses Stripe or PayPal or a similar third party billing service as an intermediary payment service. However, you nonetheless agree to allow Vendre and its agents to receive and distribute payments entitled you on an established payment schedule. When a buyer inputs payment information to Vendre, that money will go through PayPal ultimately into a Vendre account, from which you will receive semimonthly disbursements. In this way, you as a seller will receive a payment from Vendre twice per month. Each seller allows Vendre to receive, hold, and settle payment claims with the seller. Your Sales proceeds will be held in an account and will represent an unsecured claim against Vendre. Your sales proceeds are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and you may not collect Sales Proceeds directly from any buyer. Prior to disbursing funds to you, Vendre may combine the Sales Proceeds held with funds of other sellers or use them for other purposes permitted by applicable laws. You will not receive or be entitled to any interest earned on any Sale proceeds. To the extent required by applicable laws, Vendre will not use or commingle any Sale Proceeds designated for you to use for its own corporate purposes. In the event of bankruptcy, Vendre will not voluntarily make Sales Proceeds available to its creditors and Vendre will not knowingly permit its creditors to have any claims on such funds. Buyers may use different payment methods when paying for goods on Vendre, such as credit or debit cards (VISA, American Express, MasterCard, Discover, etc.), PayPal, Apple Pay, Google Pay, coupons, gift cards, etc (“Vendre Payments”). We may modify the scope of payment methods available at our sole discretion, and Vendre may refuse service of Vendre Payments to anyone, for any reason, at any time. Once Vendre disburses your Sales Proceeds to you, those funds will appear in your balance window on your homepage. A transaction is considered complete once the funds are disbursed to you. In this way, transactions become complete semimonthly, when Vendre releases its payments to the sellers. Any refunds, cancellations or adjustments will be deducted from the balance of your disbursement, on a semimonthly basis. We may permit certain customers to place invoiced orders for Your products, in which case remittance of Sales Proceeds may be delayed according to each customer’s invoicing terms. Aside from the limited circumstances set out below, you are responsible for collecting and paying any taxes associated with using and making sales through Vendre’s Services. Vendre will issue MISC 1099 forms to certain sellers to comply with IRS and state requirements. To comply with applicable US tax laws, Vendre will calculate, collect and remit sales tax on your behalf for orders shipped to customers residing in US locations. 5. Listing Conditions

Vendre reserves all rights to take remedial action such as removing the infringing content from the website, suspending the account that posted the infringing content, and disabling viewer access to the infringing material. Vendre may give a copy of an incident report to the seller account in question that details the grounds of alleged infringement. This report has instructions on how to appeal Vendre’s determination of infringement. Before taking permanent remedial action such as disabling the infringing account, Vendre will make reasonable efforts to contact the infringing user to request to cease all infringing activity.
Vendre reserves the right to disable any listing or account that we believe violates our Terms of Use, including our Copyright Policy. Vendre also reserves the right to take action against abusers of Vendre’s Copyright Policy or our Terms of Use. 8. Authorization to Contact You; Recording Calls; Analyzing Message Content

You will ensure that all of your contact information is up to date and accurate at all times.
- Returns and Cancellations for Sellers
Vendre is committed to providing a fair marketplace for both sellers and buyers. As such, Vendre will assume responsibility for customer complaints regarding packaging, shipping & handling, refunds, and adjustments. Vendre will require you to reimburse us on all approved refunds or adjustments. When a customer files for a refund, Vendre will conduct a review of the transaction to determine if the customer is entitled to a refund or an adjustment. If Vendre determines that the customer is entitled to a refund or an adjustment, we will notify you by posting a notice to your account homepage. Then, Vendre will pay the money owed to the customer, and subsequently Vendre will detract the same amount from your seller account. Sellers may implement automatic payment procedures in the event of anticipated refunds, but such procedures must satisfy the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
Buyers generally do not have the right to cancel an order. Vendre may review requests for cancellation on an individual basis. If a buyer submits a cancellation request, Vendre will send a notification to the seller’s homepage, giving the seller 3 days to accept or decline the cancellation request. If the order cannot be cancelled, (if the seller has already shipped the order), then the buyer must file a request for return and comply with Vendre’s return policy. Vendre may or may not adopt a money back guarantee for any damaged goods and will be reviewed on an individual basis. 10. Disclaimer of Warranties; Limitation of Liability.
