Sellers and buyers are responsible for complying with all laws and regulations applicable to the international sale, purchase, and shipment of items. If you purchase an item on a ShopDeyGo site other than ShopDeyGo.com, you are subject to the User Agreement of that other ShopDeyGo.com site with respect to that particular purchase.

If you purchase an item on an ShopDeyGo.com site that is different from your registration site, you are subject to the User Agreement and applicable policies of that other ShopDeyGo.com site with respect to that particular purchase, as detailed in the International Selling Policy.

For sellers, you agree that we may display your listing for sale on affiliated ShopDeyGo.com site other than the site where you listed your item for sale, based on your shipping settings.

One of the ways that we may make ShopDeyGo.com listings available to international buyers on ShopDeyGo.com and on ShopDeyGo.com‘s international sites is through the Global Shipping Program. For eligible items located in Nigeria and purchased by an international buyer through the Global Shipping means, you (as seller) will simply ship the item to a parcel processing facility located in Nigeria after receiving notification of payment from the buyer. However, a third-party global shipping provider, will oversee the processing, customs clearance, and international shipment of the item on behalf of your international buyer. To the extent a buyer has a question about your Global Shipping Program listings, ShopDeyGo.com may respond directly to the buyer if the question pertains to the services overseen by this third party. (for example, customs or international shipping). Sellers maybe asked to pay additional fees for selling through the Global Shipping Program.

Pursuant to a routed export transaction under the nation’s Export Administration Regulations and Foreign Trade Regulations, the buyer, as the Foreign Principal Party in Interest, will agree to assume responsibility for the export shipment, with the third party acting as your buyer’s forwarding agent. You remain liable for the accuracy of information you provide about items, and you agree to provide timely responses to requests for additional information.

You consent to the disclosure of certain personally identifiable information, as well as listing and order information, by ShopDeyGo.com to the third party shipping company, and by the third party shipping company to its affiliates, service providers, and other third parties (such as customs and revenue authorities, as well as other government agencies), in connection with the processing, export and customs clearance, and international transportation of any item. ShopDeyGo.com does not control the privacy policies of such third party shipping company, its affiliates, or its service providers, and you are subject to the privacy policies of those parties, as applicable.

Additional information about the program, including policies governing feedback, the handling of lost, damaged, and undeliverable items, returns, and the resolution of buyer protection claims for items that you sell through the program, can be found on our Global Shipping Program.

The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate.

  1. Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief

YOU AND ShopDeyGo.com AGREE THAT EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, OR REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND ShopDeyGo.com AGREE OTHERWISE, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, CLASS, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING. ALSO, THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE, AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOUR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER USERS. If a court decides that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this paragraph’s limitations as to a particular claim for relief, then that claim (and only that claim) must be severed from the arbitration and may be brought in court, subject to your and ShopDeyGo.com‘s right to appeal the court’s decision. All other claims will be arbitrated.

  1. Arbitration Procedures

Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. However, an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individual basis that a court can award to an individual. An arbitrator should apply the terms of the User Agreement as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to arbitrability, the scope or enforceability of this Agreement to Arbitrate, or the interpretation of Section 1 of this Agreement to Arbitrate (“Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief”), shall be for a court of competent jurisdiction to decide.

  1. The arbitration will be conducted by a Nigerian Arbitration panel.
  2. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a completed form Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to com should be sent to ShopDeyGo.com Litigation Department through our e-mail: ShopDeyGo@gmail.com, “Re: Notice of Dispute, ShopDeyGo.comShopDeyGo.com will send any Notice to you; it is your responsibility to keep your physical address up to date. All information called for in the Notice must be provided, including a description of the nature and basis of the claims the party is asserting and the relief sought.
  3. If you and com are unable to resolve the claims described in the Notice within 90 days after the Notice is sent, you or ShopDeyGo.com may initiate arbitration proceedings. Any settlement offer made by you or ShopDeyGo.com shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator.
  4. The arbitration hearing shall be held in the country in which we reside or at another mutually agreed location. If the value of the relief sought is N50,000 or less, you or com may elect to have the arbitration conducted by telephone or based solely on written submissions, which election shall be binding on you and ShopDeyGo.com subject to the arbitrator’s discretion to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. In cases where an in-person hearing is held, you and/or ShopDeyGo.com may attend by telephone, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.
  5. The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims in accordance with applicable law, including recognized principles of equity, and will honour all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator shall not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving different users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same ShopDeyGo.com user to the extent required by applicable law. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.
