Introduction
These Terms of Service (“Terms“) form a legally binding agreement between you (“User” or “you“) and Buku Marketing (Pty) Ltd (“Company“, “we“, “us“, or “our“). The Terms govern your access to and use of our website and any related services we provide (collectively, the “Service” or “Site“). By accessing or using the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree with any part of the Terms, you must stop using the Service immediately. Continuing to use or browse the Site after changes to these Terms are published constitutes your acceptance of those changes, which is a common type of “browse‑wrap” consent.
Who We Are
Buku Marketing operates the Service from South Africa. Our registered address is 18 Park Lane, Durban, Kwa-Zulu Natal, 3610. If you have questions about these Terms, please contact us using the details provided at the end of this document.
Eligibility
By using the Service, you represent that you are at least 18 years of age or have the permission of a parent or legal guardian. If you are using the Service on behalf of a company or organization, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms.
Use of the Service
The Service is provided for your personal, non‑commercial use and for informational purposes only. You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. We reserve the right to refuse service, terminate accounts, or remove or edit content if we believe that a User is violating applicable law or these Terms.
Account Registration
If the Service allows you to create a user account, you must provide accurate, current and complete information during registration and keep your account details confidential. You are responsible for all activities that occur under your account and must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your credentials. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
User Content and Contributions
If you post, upload, or otherwise make available any content (“User Content“) through the Service, you retain ownership of your content. By providing User Content, you grant us a worldwide, non‑exclusive, royalty‑free, transferable licence to use, host, copy, modify, reproduce, adapt, publish, translate, distribute, and display such content as necessary to operate and promote the Service. You are solely responsible for your User Content and agree that it does not infringe the rights of any third party. If our Service allows user contributions, we encourage you to review the separate contribution clause, which explains your rights and responsibilities.

The Service and its original content, features and functionality are and will remain the exclusive property of Buku Marketing and its licensors. By agreeing to these Terms you acknowledge that:
- We own all trademarks, service marks and copyrighted material on the Site;
- You may not sell, modify, rent, loan, share or distribute our content without prior written permission;
- You may use materials from the Site only for your personal, non‑commercial use, and you must retain all proprietary notices contained in the original materials.
We respect intellectual property rights and expect Users to do the same. We may remove or disable access to User Content that allegedly infringes someone’s intellectual‑property rights and may terminate repeat infringers.
Third‑Party Links
The Service may contain links to third‑party websites or services. Such links are provided for your convenience only. We do not control the content of those websites and are not responsible for any loss or damage that may arise from your use of them.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account or access to the Service if you engage in any prohibited activities.
Suspension and Termination of Access
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, remove your User Content and/or disable your account at any time at our sole discretion, especially if you breach these Terms or engage in abusive behaviour. You may also delete or terminate your own account by contacting us. Certain obligations under these Terms (such as our rights to User Content and provisions relating to intellectual property, warranty disclaimer, limitation of liability and indemnity) will survive termination.
Site Management and Support
We reserve the right to monitor the Service for violations of these Terms. We may undertake any necessary actions to maintain the Service, including performing routine maintenance or system administration, providing updates, and refusing service to individuals. We will make reasonable efforts to provide support during regular business hours but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability.
Products, Pricing and Payment (if applicable)
If we offer products or services for sale through the Service, prices and descriptions are subject to change at any time without notice. We will specify how we charge customers, what forms of payment we accept and any applicable taxes or shipping costs. Payments must be made in full at the time of purchase unless otherwise stated. All goods and services are provided “as available” or “as provided” to reduce the chance of disputes.
Shipping, Returns and Refunds (for physical goods)
If we ship physical goods, we will disclose expected delivery times and shipping charges in our shipping policy. For goods purchased through the Service, we will outline our return and refund procedures in our returns policy. Please review these policies carefully before making a purchase.
Privacy Policy
We care about your privacy and handle personal information in accordance with our Privacy Policy. South Africa’s Protection of Personal Information Act (POPIA) requires that we tell you how we collect, use and protect your data. Our Privacy Policy explains what information we collect, why we collect it, how we use it, and your choices regarding your personal data. By using the Service, you consent to the processing of your personal information in accordance with POPIA and our Privacy Policy. A link to our Privacy Policy is provided on the Site.
Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by South African law, the Service and all content are provided on an “as‑is” basis. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error‑free or secure. You agree that your use of the Service is at your sole risk. We will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages arising from your use of the Service. If we are found liable for any damage or loss, our liability will not exceed the total amount you have paid us (if any) for the use of the Service during the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to liability.
Disclaimer of Warranties
We make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, as to the operation of the Service or the information, content, materials or products included. The Service is available on an “as‑is and as‑available basis” and is used at your own risk. We do not guarantee that the Service will meet your requirements, that it will be secure, or that defects will be corrected.
Corrections, Modifications and Interruptions
The information on the Service may contain typographical errors, inaccuracies or omissions. We reserve the right to correct any errors and to change or update information at any time without prior notice. We also reserve the right to modify or discontinue all or part of the Service at any time. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms and any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of South Africa, including the Electronic Communications and Transactions Act 25 of 2002 and other applicable legislation. If you access the Service from outside South Africa, you are responsible for compliance with local laws. Any legal action or proceeding arising under these Terms will be brought exclusively in the courts located in Kwa-Zulu Natal, South Africa, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.
Dispute Resolution and Indemnification
If any dispute arises between you and us, we strongly encourage you to first contact us directly to seek a resolution. In the event of a dispute that cannot be resolved informally, you agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts specified above. You agree to indemnify and hold us and our affiliates, officers, agents, employees and partners harmless from and against any claim, demand, loss or damages, including legal fees, arising out of your use of the Service or violation of these Terms.
Entire Agreement
These Terms and any policies or rules posted by us on the Service constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding your use of the Service. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
Severability
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be interpreted to fulfil its intended purpose to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
Changes to These Terms
We may update or modify these Terms from time to time. We will post the updated Terms on this page with a revised “Last updated” date. It is your responsibility to review the Terms periodically. Your continued use of the Service following the posting of changes will mean that you accept and agree to the changes.
