[You can search for items, log-in to your profile and view other profiles (each account has a unique and public URL) via the website.]
1.2 The Service is operated by Dopplle, (incorporated and registered in England and Wales under [company number 12447014]) whose registered office is at [Radius House, 51 Clarendon Road, Watford, United Kingdom, WD17 1HP ] (we, our or us).

2. Your relationship with us
2.1 This document and any documents referred to within it (collectively, the Terms of Service) set out the terms of your relationship with us. It is important that you read and understand the Terms of Service before using the Service. If there is anything within them that you do not understand, then please contact us at [support@dopplle.com] to discuss what this means for you.
2.2 By setting up an account with us and/or using and accessing the Service, you agree to and accept these Terms of Service in their entirety. If you do not agree to these Terms of Service, you may not use the Service.

4. Setting up an account

4.2 [You must be at least 18 years of age, a student at a university where Dopplle operates and capable in your country of residence of entering into a legally binding agreement to use our Service. Dopplle does not knowingly collect or solicit any information from anyone under the age of 18 or knowingly allow such persons to register for the Service. Children under the age of 18 are prohibited from providing any personal information to the Site. In the event that we learn that we have collected personal information from a child under age 18 without parental consent, we will delete that information as quickly as possible.] You may connect to our Service with third-party services approved by us (e.g. Facebook, Instagram or Twitter) and in such circumstances you give us permission to access and use your information from that service as permitted by that service, and to store your log-in token for that service as set out in our Privacy Policy.
4.3 You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login details and any activities that occur under your Account. If you have any concerns that your Account may have been misused, you should contact us at [support@dopplle.com] straight away to let us know.

5. Dopplle marketplace and payments
5.1 Our Service allows you to swap items in an easy and fun way, using [“Swap Credits”].
5.2 [Swap Credits] are the in-app currency [and have no monetary value and cannot be realised or exchanged for cash]. Please note that there is not guarantee that a Swap Item which you want will become available
5.3 You can swap your items through our Service by publishing pictures of the item you want to swap (Swap Item). When a user of the Service purchases such Swap Item, this is a Swap Transaction.
5.4 Every Swap Item has a value of one Swap Credit, and Swap Transactions may only take place using [Swap Credits].
5.5 To safeguard the interests of our users, you are not permitted to sell or purchase a Swap Item by making direct arrangements with the buyer or the seller to use a payment method other than the [Swap Credits]. Please note that selling or purchasing a Swap Item in any other way is a breach of our Rules of Acceptable Use and can result in, among other things, suspension or termination of your access to the Service (see Section 8).
5.6 We want our Service to be a positive experience for our users and we ask that you honour the commitments you make to another user in respect of the swap, sale or purchase of a Swap Item.
5.7 Any agreement for and/or purchase of a Swap Item is made solely between you and the seller. Complaints, questions and claims related to a Swap Item should be directed to the seller. [Where users cannot resolve issues relating to a Swap Transaction between themselves, we will attempt to help mediate such disputes through our dispute resolution process.] You can find out more about our dispute resolution procedure at section 14 of these Terms of Service.
5.8 As we are not the seller of any Swap Items, we have no control and do not give any commitment relating to the existence, quality, safety, genuineness or legality of Swap Items, the truth or accuracy of any picture or description of the Swap Items or any other content made available by users, the ability of sellers to sell Swap Items, the ability of buyers to pay for them or that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction or return the Swap Item, and we have no liability in this respect.
