The Platform is recommended for users 18+. If we learn that we collected data from a minor contrary to law, we will take reasonable steps to delete it.

13. Software Developer Disclaimer

The Developer provides software code and technical maintenance only and does not create, review, approve, moderate, or control any content, listings, messages, or transactions on the Platform.

The Developer does not determine purposes or means of processing personal data; all such decisions are made solely by the Karvo Owner.

Any claims regarding content, orders, refunds, product safety/legality, or data rights must be addressed to the Karvo Owner — not the Developer.
