Effective: August 17, 2026 | Last updated: August 17, 2026
The essential deal:
- Modava helps users discover fashion products and redirects them to independent retailers.
- Modava is not the seller, retailer, payment processor, shipper, or returns provider and is not a party to a retail purchase.
- Product details, prices, inventory, promotions, shipping, returns, warranties, and fulfilment are controlled by the retailer and must be verified on the retailer’s site.
- Modava may earn an affiliate commission from qualifying purchases, generally without increasing the price paid to the retailer.
1. Agreement and operator
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and Modava (the “Operator,” “Modava,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), an independently operated fashion-discovery service based in British Columbia, Canada. They govern the Modava website, mobile application, related pages, accounts, communications, and features (together, the “Services”).
By creating an account, selecting “I agree,” downloading or using the App, or otherwise accessing the Services, you confirm that you have read and agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
Privacy Policy: https://modava.app/modava-mobile-app-privacy-policy/
2. What Modava is—and is not
Modava is a discovery and referral tool. It organizes and displays fashion-product information from independent brands, retailers, affiliate networks, and data feeds; lets users filter, swipe, save, and revisit products; and provides outbound links to retailer websites or apps.
Modava is not a retailer, seller, distributor, manufacturer, marketplace, broker, agent, payment processor, merchant of record, shipper, fulfilment provider, or returns provider. Modava does not take title to products, possess inventory, set retailer terms, accept retail payments, or enter into the purchase contract between you and a retailer. A product purchase is solely between you and the applicable retailer under that retailer’s terms and policies.
No retailer, brand, affiliate network, Apple, or Google sponsors, endorses, or is responsible for Modava merely because its content, link, platform, or service appears in or supports the Services.
3. Eligibility
The Services are not directed to children under 13. You must be at least 13 to create an account. If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Services only with permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf. You must be legally permitted to use the Services in your location.
4. Accounts and security
- Provide accurate information and keep it reasonably current.
- Protect your login credentials and device and do not share an account in a way that creates security or misuse risk.
- Notify Modava promptly if you reasonably suspect unauthorized account use.
- You are responsible for activity under your account except to the extent caused by Modava’s breach of law or failure to use reasonable safeguards.
You may initiate account deletion through Settings > Account > Delete Account in the App or follow the web-based instructions in the Privacy Policy. Account deletion is permanent and removes access to saved items and preferences, subject to limited lawful retention described in the Privacy Policy.
5. Limited licence
Subject to these Terms, Modava grants you a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and non-sublicensable licence to access and use the Services for lawful, non-commercial fashion discovery. No ownership rights are transferred to you. Any rights not expressly granted are reserved by Modava and the applicable rights holders.
6. Acceptable use
You must not, and must not assist another person to:
- use the Services unlawfully, fraudulently, deceptively, or to violate another person’s rights;
- circumvent security, access controls, rate limits, geographic restrictions, or technical protections;
- probe, scan, disrupt, overload, damage, introduce malicious code, or attempt unauthorized access to the Services or related systems;
- scrape, crawl, harvest, copy, index, or use automated means to extract content or data, except through a public interface expressly authorized by Modava in writing;
- reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, modify, translate, or create derivative works from the Services except where applicable law expressly permits it;
- remove proprietary notices, impersonate another person, misrepresent affiliation, or use the Services to send spam;
- reuse product feeds, images, descriptions, trademarks, or retailer content for a competing service or commercial database; or
- use the Services in a way that could expose Modava, its individual owner/operator, a retailer, or another party to liability or reputational harm.
7. Product listings, prices, and availability
Product images, names, descriptions, categories, colours, sizes, prices, discounts, currency conversions, availability, ratings, and promotions may be supplied or updated by third parties. Feeds can be delayed, incomplete, duplicated, or incorrect. Displayed prices may exclude tax, duty, shipping, fees, or currency-conversion costs. A retailer may change or withdraw an item or offer at any time.
You must verify all material details on the retailer’s checkout page before purchasing. If Modava and a retailer show different information, the retailer’s information at checkout controls. Modava does not guarantee that a product is authentic, lawful, safe, suitable, available, accurately described, or eligible for a promotion, and does not make product warranties or recommendations as a professional adviser.
8. Retail purchases, shipping, returns, and disputes
The retailer alone is responsible for accepting or rejecting an order; charging and refunding payment; taxes, duties, shipping, delivery, title and risk of loss; product safety, quality, conformity, recalls, warranties, returns, exchanges, customer service, and legal compliance for the retail transaction.
Questions, complaints, chargebacks, cancellation requests, returns, warranty claims, and delivery disputes must be directed to the retailer or payment provider. Modava may choose to help locate retailer contact information but is not required to intervene, issue a refund, replace a product, or resolve a retail dispute.
9. Affiliate relationships and placement
Some outbound links are affiliate links. Modava may receive a commission or other compensation if you click or complete a qualifying action or purchase. This generally does not increase the retailer’s price to you. Affiliate relationships may affect which retailers or products are available in Modava, but they do not make Modava the seller or guarantee a product’s quality or suitability.
Commission eligibility and reporting are determined by the retailer or affiliate network and may be reversed if an order is cancelled, returned, ineligible, or attributed elsewhere.
10. Third-party services
The Services may link to or interoperate with retailers, app stores, authentication providers, affiliate networks, and other independent services. Their terms, privacy policies, accessibility, security, content, and availability apply to your dealings with them. Modava does not control and is not responsible for third-party services, and a link is not an endorsement. Use third-party services at your own discretion.
11. Intellectual property
The Services, including Modava’s software, interface, selection, organization, branding, graphics, and original text, are owned by Modava or its licensors and protected by intellectual-property law. Product images, descriptions, brand names, logos, and trademarks are owned by their respective retailers, brands, or licensors and are displayed under applicable licences, feeds, affiliate arrangements, or other lawful permissions. Nothing in these Terms grants you a right to use a third party’s marks or content.
12. Feedback
If you voluntarily send ideas, suggestions, or feedback, you grant Modava a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free right to use and adapt that feedback for the Services without restriction or compensation. This does not transfer ownership of personal information, which remains governed by the Privacy Policy.
13. Service availability and changes
Modava may add, change, suspend, or discontinue features, retailer integrations, feeds, or the Services, and may impose reasonable limits, maintenance periods, or geographic restrictions. We do not promise uninterrupted, error-free, or permanent availability. We will provide notice where required by law and will not remove a paid entitlement without respecting mandatory consumer rights; Modava currently does not sell retail products or paid subscriptions through its core Services.
14. Suspension and termination
You may stop using the Services at any time and may delete your account as described above. Modava may suspend or terminate access when reasonably necessary to address a breach of these Terms, unlawful conduct, fraud, security risk, material harm, repeated misuse, legal requirement, or discontinuation of the Services. Where practical and appropriate, we will provide notice and an opportunity to correct the issue. Sections intended by their nature to survive—including ownership, third-party transactions, disclaimers, liability limits, indemnity, and dispute terms—survive termination.
15. Disclaimers
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES AND ALL INFORMATION DISPLAYED THROUGH THEM ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” MODAVA AND ITS OWNER/OPERATOR DISCLAIM EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, AND COLLATERAL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, AVAILABILITY, SECURITY, AND RESULTS.
MODAVA DOES NOT WARRANT THAT LISTINGS ARE COMPLETE OR CURRENT; THAT A RETAILER WILL HONOUR A PRICE OR PROMOTION; THAT A PRODUCT WILL FIT, ARRIVE, MATCH AN IMAGE, BE AUTHENTIC, SAFE, OR AVAILABLE; OR THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. THESE DISCLAIMERS DO NOT EXCLUDE A WARRANTY OR RIGHT THAT CANNOT LEGALLY BE EXCLUDED.
16. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MODAVA, ITS INDIVIDUAL OWNER/OPERATOR, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, AND REPRESENTATIVES (THE “PROTECTED PARTIES”) WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, SAVINGS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OPPORTUNITY; OR DAMAGES ARISING FROM A RETAILER, PRODUCT, ORDER, PAYMENT, DELIVERY, RETURN, WARRANTY, THIRD-PARTY SERVICE, UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, OR SERVICE INTERRUPTION, EVEN IF ADVISED THAT SUCH LOSS WAS POSSIBLE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE PROTECTED PARTIES’ TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) CAD $100 AND (B) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID DIRECTLY TO MODAVA FOR THE SERVICES DURING THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM. AMOUNTS PAID TO A RETAILER ARE NOT AMOUNTS PAID TO MODAVA.
The exclusions and cap apply regardless of the form of action and allocate risk between the parties. They do not limit liability for fraud, wilful misconduct, or any other liability that applicable law does not permit to be limited. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
17. Indemnity
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Protected Parties from third-party claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, and reasonable costs (including legal fees) arising from your unlawful or fraudulent use of the Services, material breach of these Terms, infringement of another person’s rights, malicious code, or unauthorized automated extraction. This obligation does not apply to the extent a claim was caused by a Protected Party’s negligence, wilful misconduct, or breach of law. Modava may control the defence of a covered claim, and you will reasonably cooperate. You may not settle a claim imposing liability or admission on a Protected Party without written consent.
18. Governing law and disputes
Before starting a formal claim, you and Modava agree to make a reasonable good-faith effort for 30 days to resolve the issue by written notice to the contact email below. The notice should describe the issue and requested resolution.
Except where mandatory consumer law requires otherwise, these Terms and disputes relating to them or the Services are governed by the laws of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable there, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. You and Modava submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of British Columbia sitting in Vancouver, British Columbia. Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking urgent injunctive relief or using an eligible small-claims process.
19. Mobile platform terms
If you download the App from Apple’s App Store or Google Play, the applicable store terms also apply. These Terms are between you and Modava, not Apple or Google. Modava—not the platform provider—is responsible for the App, its content, maintenance and support, and claims relating to it, subject to these Terms and applicable law. The platform provider has no obligation to provide maintenance or support.
For an Apple download: the licence is limited to Apple-branded products you own or control as permitted by Apple’s Usage Rules, including permitted Family Sharing or volume-purchase use. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries and may enforce the applicable terms. If the App fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple for any refund of the App purchase price, if any; Apple has no other warranty obligation to the maximum extent permitted by law. Modava addresses claims relating to the App to the extent required by law.
You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a Canadian or U.S. government embargo applicable to the App and are not on a prohibited or restricted-party list. You must comply with applicable third-party agreements when using the App.
20. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms for changes in the Services, partners, risk, or law. The online version will show a new “Last updated” date. Material changes receive additional notice where required and apply prospectively. If you disagree, stop using the Services and delete your account before the change takes effect.
21. General
If a provision is invalid or unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary or severed; the rest remains in effect. Failure to enforce is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without written consent; Modava may assign them with a transfer or reorganization of the Services. These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement about the Services. Headings are for convenience, “including” is non-exhaustive, and electronic notices and acceptances satisfy writing requirements where permitted.
