Terms of Service
Effective date: 1 March 2025
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Chissa platform, website, and services (collectively, the “Service”) operated by Chissa (Pty) Ltd (“Chissa”, “we”, “our”, or “us”). By using our Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using Chissa — including joining the waitlist — you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age, have read and understood these Terms, and agree to be bound by them. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
2. Pre-Launch Phase
Chissa is currently in a pre-launch phase. At this stage, the Service consists solely of a waitlist registration. Joining the waitlist does not guarantee access to the platform, does not constitute a contract for services, and does not confer any rights over the platform’s features or content.
These Terms will be updated with complete platform terms prior to or upon launch.
3. Use of the Service
You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes. You must not:
- Submit false or misleading information, including fake email addresses.
- Attempt to disrupt, damage, or gain unauthorised access to our systems.
- Use the Service in any way that violates applicable South African law or regulation.
- Impersonate Chissa or any other person or entity.
4. Intellectual Property
All content, branding, design, code, and materials associated with Chissa — including the name “Chissa”, the wordmark, and all associated creative works — are the property of Chissa (Pty) Ltd and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
You may not reproduce, modify, distribute, or use any Chissa intellectual property without our prior written consent.
5. Privacy
Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.
6. Disclaimers
The Service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We make no guarantee that the platform will launch on a specific date or include any specific features.
7. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by South African law, Chissa shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the Service — including but not limited to the waitlist.
8. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any disputes arising from these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of South Africa.
9. Changes to These Terms
We reserve the right to update or modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated to waitlist subscribers by email. Continued use of the Service following changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
