Welcome to FirmBrik. These Terms of Service govern your access to and use of the FirmBrik platform, including our website, mobile applications, and related services. By creating an account or using our services, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the platform.
FirmBrik is a property marketplace platform that connects buyers, sellers, construction professionals, contractors, suppliers, developers, and brokers, wherever they are in the world. Our services include:
FirmBrik acts as a technology platform facilitating connections between parties. We are not a party to any transaction between users unless explicitly stated. We do not guarantee the quality, legality, or accuracy of any listing, service, or property.
You must be at least 18 years old to create an account on FirmBrik. By registering, you represent that the information you provide is accurate, current, and complete. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity under your account.
You agree to notify FirmBrik immediately of any unauthorised use of your account. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or engage in suspicious activity.
Users who list properties, land, or services are solely responsible for the accuracy of their listings, including descriptions, photos, pricing, and legal status. Sellers represent that they have the legal right to list and transact the properties or services offered.
Buyers are responsible for conducting their own due diligence before entering into any transaction. FirmBrik does not verify property ownership, title status, or the accuracy of listings unless explicitly providing verification services.
All offers, counter-offers, and acceptances made through the platform are binding expressions of intent between the parties involved. FirmBrik facilitates but does not enforce these agreements.
FirmBrik does not process payments between users. Buyers, sellers, contractors, suppliers, and other parties transact directly with one another using their preferred payment method: bank transfer, mobile money, cash, or any other means they agree upon.
FirmBrik provides a record-keeping service: once a payment has been made off-platform, either party may confirm the payment against the relevant milestone, listing, or service in the platform. These confirmations form an evidence-grade timeline of the project: useful for the parties' own records, for resale, for loan applications, and for any future dispute resolution.
FirmBrik charges no transaction fees or platform fees on these direct payments. Specific premium services FirmBrik offers (verified Pro profiles, land title verification reports, build completion certificates, and similar) are priced separately and disclosed at the point of purchase.
Refunds and disputes are matters between the transacting parties. If a dispute arises, both parties agree to use FirmBrik's dispute resolution process, which surfaces the project record, mediates between the parties, and may publicly flag the outcome on the relevant professional's profile, before seeking external remedies.
Historical transactions completed through FirmBrik's legacy escrow system (prior to this update) remain governed by the terms in effect at the time of those transactions.
You agree not to use FirmBrik for:
Violation of these prohibitions may result in immediate account suspension, removal of listings or profiles, public flagging on professional records where applicable, and reporting to relevant authorities.
The FirmBrik platform, including its design, logos, code, and content, is the property of FirmBrik Ltd. You may not reproduce, modify, or distribute any part of the platform without prior written consent.
By uploading content (photos, descriptions, documents) to the platform, you grant FirmBrik a non-exclusive, worldwide licence to use, display, and distribute that content solely for the purpose of operating and promoting the platform. You retain ownership of your content.
FirmBrik is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We make no warranties, express or implied, regarding the platform's reliability, accuracy, or fitness for a particular purpose.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, FirmBrik shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the platform, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, or business opportunities.
Our total liability for any claim arising from these terms or your use of the platform shall not exceed the fees you have paid to FirmBrik in the 12 months preceding the claim.
In the event of a dispute between users, FirmBrik will provide a dispute resolution process. Both parties agree to cooperate in good faith to resolve disputes through the platform before pursuing external legal remedies.
For disputes between a user and FirmBrik, the parties agree to first attempt resolution through direct communication. If unresolved within 30 days, the dispute shall be submitted to mediation before any legal proceedings are initiated.
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Uganda. For users in other jurisdictions, applicable local consumer protection laws may also apply where they cannot be contractually waived.
Any legal proceedings shall be brought in the courts of Kampala, Uganda, unless otherwise required by applicable law.
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make significant changes, we will notify you via email or through a prominent notice on the platform. Your continued use of FirmBrik after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
