This Agreement governs every Buyer’s access, activity, and rights on the XB2BX global marketplace — covering B2B, B2C, wholesale, retail, digital services, and professional services across 180+ countries. It protects Buyer rights, sets platform obligations, and defines the legal framework for all commercial transactions.
This Global Buyer Agreement ("Agreement") is a legally binding contract between the buyer ("Buyer", "you", or "your") — whether an individual consumer, sole trader, business entity, corporation, or institutional purchaser — and XB2BX LTD, registered in England and Wales ("XB2BX", "we", "us", or "our"), operator of the global digital marketplace at xb2bx.com (the "Platform").
XB2BX operates as a marketplace facilitator connecting Buyers with independent Sellers. While XB2BX provides infrastructure, payment facilitation, dispute resolution tools, and Buyer Protection mechanisms, the primary commercial contract for any transaction is between the Buyer and the relevant Seller. XB2BX is not the seller of record in any transaction unless explicitly stated.
This Agreement becomes binding upon: (i) completing Buyer registration; (ii) browsing or searching the Platform; (iii) placing any Order; or (iv) making any payment through XB2BX. Acceptance is continuous and irrevocable while your account remains active.
Each Buyer may hold only one registered account. Creating multiple accounts to circumvent restrictions, exploit promotions, or evade enforcement actions is prohibited and will result in all associated accounts being permanently suspended. XB2BX reserves the right to merge accounts suspected of being operated by the same person or entity.
XB2BX grants Buyers a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to access and use the Platform solely for the purpose of purchasing goods, services, and digital products from registered Sellers. This licence does not extend to commercial scraping, data harvesting, resale of Platform access, or any use that competes with XB2BX.
Buyers may cancel an Order without penalty within 2 hours of placement, provided the Seller has not yet accepted or begun fulfilment. After this window, cancellation is subject to the Seller’s stated cancellation policy. XB2BX may approve cancellations at its discretion in cases of Seller non-response, material listing inaccuracy, or technical error.
XB2BX operates an Escrow-based payment system for eligible transactions. Buyer funds are held securely by XB2BX or its designated payment partner and are not released to the Seller until the Buyer confirms satisfactory receipt or the confirmation window expires.
Buyer Protection does not apply to: transactions conducted off-platform; Buyer remorse or change-of-mind; goods damaged by the Buyer after receipt; digital goods after activation where they function as described; custom-manufactured goods made to Buyer specification; and perishable goods where delay is caused by customs or Buyer-side logistics.
Unless otherwise agreed in the confirmed trade contract using Incoterms® (ICC 2020), the following default responsibilities apply to all physical goods orders:
| Responsibility | Default Party | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Export documentation | Seller | Seller bears all export clearance costs |
| Import customs clearance | Buyer | Buyer responsible for import duties & fees |
| Last-mile delivery | Buyer | Coordinate with carrier on arrival |
| Risk of loss in transit | Seller until dispatch | Risk transfers on handover to carrier (EXW default) |
| Tracking receipt | Buyer to confirm | Confirm tracking number on Platform within 48hrs of receipt |
| Delivery disputes | Buyer to raise within 48hrs | Evidence of non-delivery required |
Consumer Buyers transacting with Sellers who are businesses enjoy full statutory rights under applicable consumer protection law. XB2BX’s policies do not limit or waive any statutory rights Buyers may have.
XB2BX operates as a marketplace facilitator and is not the manufacturer, importer, or seller of record for any goods listed by third-party Sellers. Product liability for goods sold by Sellers rests primarily with the Seller. However, XB2BX maintains product safety standards and will act swiftly on verified safety complaints.
All Platform technology, software, source code, databases, algorithms, user interface designs, trademarks, service marks, logos, and proprietary data systems are the exclusive intellectual property of XB2BX LTD and its licensors. Buyers receive no licence to any of these assets beyond what is strictly necessary to use the Platform for purchasing purposes.
Product images, descriptions, brand assets, and technical documentation displayed in Listings remain the intellectual property of the respective Sellers or their licensors. Purchasing a product does not transfer any intellectual property rights associated with that product, including but not limited to: brand names, patents, trademarks, registered designs, and software source code.
Purchase of digital goods, software licences, and digital services grants Buyers only the rights expressly stated in the applicable Licence Agreement or Listing description. Buyers may not resell, sublicence, reverse-engineer, decompile, or redistribute digital goods unless the licence explicitly permits such activities.
XB2BX processes personal data in accordance with the UK GDPR, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (2016/679), the Data Protection Act 2018, the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and all applicable equivalent legislation in the jurisdictions where it operates.
| Data Category | Purpose | Legal Basis |
|---|---|---|
| Identity & Contact | Account creation, Order fulfilment, communication | Contract performance |
| Payment Data | Payment processing, fraud prevention, refunds | Contract & legal obligation |
| Transaction History | Order management, dispute resolution, tax reporting | Contract & legal obligation |
| Browsing & Usage | Platform improvement, personalisation, security | Legitimate interests |
| Communications | Customer support, dispute mediation | Contract performance |
| KYC & Verification | Legal compliance, AML/CFT obligations | Legal obligation |
XB2BX shares Buyer personal data only with: (i) the relevant Seller, limited to what is necessary for Order fulfilment (name, delivery address, Order details); (ii) payment processors and fraud prevention services; (iii) logistics and customs partners where applicable; (iv) regulatory and law enforcement authorities where required by law; and (v) corporate successors in the event of a merger or acquisition.
XB2BX does not sell Buyer personal data to third parties for marketing purposes. XB2BX is not an advertising platform.
By using the Platform and placing any Order, you continuously represent and warrant to XB2BX and to every Seller transacting with you that:
These representations are continuous and must remain true throughout your engagement with the Platform. Material breach of any representation is grounds for immediate account termination and may give rise to civil or criminal liability.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, XB2BX’s total aggregate liability to any Buyer shall not exceed the greater of: (i) the total value of the specific Order or transaction giving rise to the claim; or (ii) USD 10,000. XB2BX expressly excludes liability for indirect, consequential, special, incidental, punitive, or exemplary damages, including loss of profits, business interruption, or loss of anticipated savings.
XB2BX acts as an intermediary marketplace facilitator and is not the seller, manufacturer, importer, or distributor of any goods or services listed by third-party Sellers. XB2BX does not warrant the accuracy of Listings, the quality of goods, the performance of services, or the solvency of Sellers beyond what is expressly stated in the Buyer Protection Programme. Buyers contract directly with Sellers at their own commercial risk.
XB2BX shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by Force Majeure events including natural disasters, pandemics, wars, government actions, cyber attacks, or critical infrastructure failures. XB2BX will notify affected Buyers promptly and endeavour to restore normal service as quickly as reasonably practicable.
You agree to fully indemnify, defend, and hold harmless XB2BX, its directors, officers, employees, agents, and successors from and against all claims, losses, damages, liabilities, penalties, fines, costs, and legal fees arising from or related to:
| Trigger | Action | Notice |
|---|---|---|
| Prohibited Conduct (§12) | Immediate permanent termination | None required |
| Fraud or financial crime | Immediate suspension + investigation | None required |
| Sanctions exposure identified | Immediate freeze of account & funds | None required |
| Abusive chargebacks (pattern) | Suspension + recovery action | Warning issued first |
| KYC non-completion | Order hold & purchasing restriction | 7 days to complete |
| Repeated false claims | Buyer Protection removal + review | Warning issued |
| Account inactivity (>24 months) | Account archival, data retained per policy | 60 days notice |
| Court / regulatory order | Compliance action as required | Per court order |
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Buyers waive the right to participate in class action lawsuits or class-wide arbitration against XB2BX. All claims must be brought on an individual basis. This waiver does not apply where prohibited by mandatory consumer protection law in the Buyer’s jurisdiction.
This Agreement and all non-contractual obligations arising in connection with it are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales. Subject to the arbitration clause, both parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales. For consumer Buyers, this choice of law does not deprive them of the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the law of their habitual residence.
This document constitutes the complete, exclusive, and final agreement between XB2BX LTD and all registered Buyers with respect to the subject matter herein. It supersedes all prior representations, negotiations, and earlier agreements. XB2BX is committed to maintaining the highest standards of Buyer rights protection and data privacy across 180+ countries.
