- Users must inspect and verify goods, services, rooms, land, jobs and counterparties.

Deals, land, jobs and safety

- Meet in safe places and inspect items before payment where practical.
- Independently verify ownership, licences, permits, employment claims and professional qualifications.

- KuriaHub may review reported content when needed for support, safety or enforcement.
- Threats, abuse, spam and deliberate misinformation may be removed.

Seller subscriptions, promotions or other paid features apply only when clearly displayed and activated. The price, period, renewal and material conditions should be shown before a user commits.
- Approved payment providers may process payment details and transaction status.
- KuriaHub does not ask for a bank PIN, M-PESA PIN or OTP.
- Any refund or cancellation right is subject to the displayed plan terms, applicable law and payment-provider rules.
Optional photo polishing
A seller may choose an optional image-processing feature to improve a listing photograph. Only submit images you are permitted to use.
- Images may be sent to a specialist service provider to perform the requested processing.
- The seller remains responsible for ensuring the processed image still represents the real item or service.
Moderation and account action
KuriaHub may reject, limit, remove or preserve content and may warn, restrict or suspend an account where reasonably necessary for safety, legal compliance, platform integrity or investigation.
- Serious or repeated violations may lead to account termination.

Intellectual property
The KuriaHub name, branding, software and original platform materials are protected. Do not copy, reverse engineer, misuse or falsely claim affiliation with KuriaHub.

- KuriaHub cannot promise uninterrupted or error-free access.
Responsibility and liability
To the extent permitted by Kenyan law, each user is responsible for their own content, conduct and transactions. KuriaHub is not responsible for losses caused by another user's fraud, breach, product, service or off-platform conduct.
- Nothing in these Terms excludes rights or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Account deletion and retained records
Users may request account deletion through the public Data Deletion page. Some payment, completed-order, fraud-prevention, safety, dispute, backup or legal records may be retained where reasonably necessary.
- Deletion is reviewed securely and is not necessarily immediate.
- Content already shared with another user may remain in that user's records where required for safety or transaction history.
Changes, law and contact
KuriaHub may update these Terms when the service, law or safety requirements change. Material changes will be communicated through the platform where reasonably practical.
- These Terms are governed by the laws of Kenya.
- Raise questions or disputes first through the public Contact Support page.
