Terms and Conditions of using the FairXchange Network


1. Quality & Fitness for Purpose of Goods

Sharing Life Trust makes no representation as to quality, fitness for purpose or operational safety of any goods offered through the ‘Fair Xchange’ network. We host this network as a community service, and any transactions conducted therein are expressly understood by all parties involved to be solely between offering and accepting network members.

2. Code of Conduct for Members

a) Description of Goods

The network relies on members giving an honest and accurate description of goods offered, with dimensions and photos where appropriate.

b) Payment for Goods

The network operates a discretionary payment scheme, where ‘buyers’ are invited to make a contribution to Sharing Life Trust, through the “Just Giving” link, appropriate to the buyer’s financial circumstances and the value of the goods.

We do not police these contributions, but rely on members’ honest co-operation to at least cover our costs in providing this service, which we would otherwise have to withdraw.

c) Communication

Members of the network agree to communicate promptly and appropriately with each other in connection with network transactions. Members agree to respect each other’s privacy and not to pass on other members’ contact details to third parties without their consent.

3. Host’s Rights

Sharing Life Trust retains the right to host the network, and to remove members from it in the event of a breach of these Terms and Conditions. Any member so removed has the right of appeal to the Trustees, who will make a judgment at a subsequent Trustees Meeting, and inform the member accordingly.
