Acknowledgment of Country

Welcome to the Meydit Platform and thank you for using it during our BETA Phase 1.

We applaud you for being part of the Meydit family and for committing to an ethical and sustainable future for fashion; it starts with you and it starts today.

Legal terms and conditions

These Terms and Conditions form a legally binding contract between Meydit Pty Ltd ACN 673 429 868 (Meydit), and you the user.

  1. These terms and conditions apply to all users of our Platform; if you use this Platform in anyway, you agree to these terms and conditions.
  2. ‘Us’ and ‘Our’ means Meydit and ‘You’ , ‘User or ‘Users’ means anyone who uses our Platform, including Clients, Creatives and anyone who is browsing;
  3. Whether you are just looking or buying fashion items, or making them, these terms always apply, and you are responsible for checking them.
  4. We may change these terms and conditions sometimes; it is your responsibility to check for updates and any changes to these terms and conditions or any policies referred to in them.
  5. These terms and conditions include our Ethics and Sustainability Policy, Privacy Policy, Cookies Policy as well as any instructions and guidelines you see on our Platform; all of these together are the terms and conditions of contract between you and us.

Who can use it?

  1. We don’t mind if you are just looking.
  2. If you use the Platform in any way these terms and conditions become a contract between Meydit and you.
  3. You must only use our Platform if you are aged 18 or over and live in New South Wales, Australia.
  4. Creatives must be the people they say are going to make the fashion item – if you are a Creative you must not outsource or subcontract the Making to anyone else.
  5. You don’t have to agree to our terms and conditions, but if you don’t then you must not use our Platform.
  6. If you use our Platform in any way you are taken and deemed to have agreed to all of our terms and conditions.

What you can use the Meydit Platform for

  1. We make our Platform available to you so that you can use it to:
    1. have your fashion items, or ‘Makings’ made especially for you as a Client, or your pet, and/or
    2. make fashion items for a Client, if you are a Creative.
  2. In this agreement the words ‘Making’ and ‘Makings’ are used interchangeably with ‘fashion items’ and this means clothing and apparel which is material or digital or upcycled, and includes handbags, belts, wallets, and hats, but not accessories like jewelry.

How it works

  1. Creatives make their services available on our Platform.
  2. Clients can use the Platform to find a Creative of their choice to make their fashion items for them, or let the algorithm find the best available Creative for them.
  3. Clients start the process of collaboration and agreement with the Creative, and will be required to accept the Creative’s own terms and conditions if they wish to have a Making made. If the Creatives terms and conditions are inconsistent with these terms and conditions, these Meydit terms and conditions will apply to the extent of the inconsistency.
  4. Clients use our tools to show and/or describe fashion items they would like made, for example: image or sketch of that jacket or dress you’ve always wanted, a coat for your cat or dog.
  5. Clients invite Creatives to make their fashion item by posting their invitation online.
  6. Creatives who have registered to use the Meydit Platform can use the Platform to contact you, ask any questions (like, have you bought the fabric?), make suggestions, and once they understand what you want, they can offer the Client a price and timeframe.
  7. Clients may receive more than one offer and can choose whichever offer they like.
  8. [not used]
  9. When a Client accepts the Creative’s offer, a contract, separate to this one, and with separate terms and conditions, is made between the Creative and the Client.
  10. The contract between the Client and Creative will use the Creatives terms and conditions, price and delivery schedule and outline the Client’s requirements, measurements and delivery address.
  11. Clients must use Our courier service to post any fabric, haberdashery, clothing for upcycling and any items related to their Making to the Creative and Creative must also use our nominated courier service to return items to the Client.
  12. Clients and Creatives must also accept the Couriers terms and conditions and pay the courier their fee.
  13. If a Client does not use our Courier service, Meydit will not be liable for lost or damaged items or otherwise.
  14. Liability for lost or damaged items is limited and restricted to the Courier’s standard terms of service or 10% of the agreed price for a Making, or $200, whichever is the lessor.
  15. Clients and Creatives are strongly encouraged purchase postage insurance, and to use Our Couriers registered delivery services and require the recipient to sign on receipt of the fashion item.
  16. Items sent to the wrong recipient are the whole responsibility of the sender and not of Us; if you are a User and you receive a fashion item that was not intended for you, you must notify the sender and Meydit immediately.

Money matters

  1. Meydit will require a deposit of 15% of the purchase price to be held in the Meydit Treasury Box, and we may release that after…
  2. When the Creative shows you a receipt for shipping of your finished Making, you must pay the remaining price for your purchase by transfer of funds to the Meydit Treasury Box.
  3. Once the Client receives their purchased fashion item/Making, they must notify Meydit via the Platform and Meydit will release the funds to the Creative.
  4. Meydit will add a 15% user fee to every transaction [tbc], this will happen when you use the Platform to make an agreement between a Client and Creative.
  5. Meydit may choose to release funds to the Creative even if the Client has not notified Meydit that they have received their fashion item/Making, and if we choose to do so, we may ask both the Creative and the Client about what went wrong before we do that, and will put our dispute resolution hat on first.

If something didn’t go as planned

  1. If something didn’t go as planned you must let us know straight away by emailing helpsortthisout@Meydit [insert link]
  2. If there is a dispute between the Client and Creative Meydit will try to help both people to work things out in a common sense, no fuss and reasonably mature way.
  3. If any user of the Platform has a dispute with Meydit they must contact us at helpsortthisout@Meydit [insert link] within 10 calendar days of becoming aware of the dispute; you may not report or complain of a conflict or dispute after 10 calendar days, and if you do so, it will be treated as too late and Meydit will not take any action about it.

    1. to make every effort work things out with Meydit and any other user in a common sense, no fuss and reasonably mature way;
    2. Meydit will make a final decision about any disputes between Clients and Creatives.
