IMPORTANT: LocalMart365 Does NOT Sell Any Products

LocalMart365 is a technology platform that connects buyers with independent, third-party vendors. We do not sell, manufacture, stock, ship, or deliver any product listed on this platform — not a single item.

  • Every product listing on LocalMart365 is created and owned by an independent third-party vendor.
  • All transactions, payments for products, deliveries, and disputes are strictly between the buyer and the vendor.
  • LocalMart365 is not a party to any transaction between a buyer and a vendor and accepts no liability whatsoever for such transactions.
  • We do not guarantee the quality, safety, legality, accuracy of description, or availability of any product listed on the platform.
  • By using LocalMart365, you expressly acknowledge and agree that LocalMart365 bears no responsibility for any product you discover, contact a vendor about, or purchase through leads generated on this platform.

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using LocalMart365 ("the Platform", "we", "us", "our"), you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the platform.

2. What LocalMart365 Is

LocalMart365 is a hyperlocal discovery and listing platform. We provide technology tools — including stores, product listings, geolocation search, AI-powered search, and direct messaging — so that local businesses and individual sellers can reach buyers near them.

We are not a retailer, marketplace seller, e-commerce store, or distributor. We do not hold inventory, process product payments, arrange deliveries, or handle returns for any product listed on the platform.

The only payments processed by LocalMart365 directly are vendor subscription and addon pack fees — charges for using the platform itself — not for any product sold by a vendor.

3. Definitions

  • "Platform" — the LocalMart365 website and all related services
  • "Vendor" — a registered seller who creates stores and posts product listings on the platform
  • "Buyer" — any person browsing listings or contacting vendors through the platform
  • "Listing" — a product advertisement created and published by a Vendor
  • "Third-Party Vendor" — any independent individual or business that posts listings; they are entirely separate from LocalMart365
  • "Subscription / Addon" — a paid plan for platform access, not a purchase of any product

4. Third-Party Vendors — No Endorsement

Vendors on LocalMart365 are independent third parties. LocalMart365 does not employ, represent, endorse, or vouch for any vendor or their products.

We do not verify the accuracy of product descriptions, prices, photos, stock levels, or any other information provided by vendors. Such information is solely the responsibility of the vendor who posted it.

If you have a complaint about a product, its quality, non-delivery, or a transaction gone wrong — your recourse is with the vendor directly, not with LocalMart365.

LocalMart365 shall not be held liable for any loss, damage, injury, fraud, or dispute arising out of or in connection with any product listed or sold by a third-party vendor on this platform.
