Terms of Service

Welcome to WhatsMenu, a business management and online ordering platform provided by Websumo Solutions (Co. Reg. No. 201803015504) ("WhatsMenu", "we", "us", or "our"). By signing up for a WhatsMenu Account, you ("Merchant" or "you") agree to these Terms of Service. Please read them carefully.

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

By creating a Merchant Account on WhatsMenu, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service, our Privacy Policy, and our Refund Policy. You are responsible for ensuring your business information accurately reflects your legal business name and details. If you are creating an account on behalf of your employer or organization, your employer will be considered the Merchant and you must use your employer-issued email address. You represent that you are at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and legally capable of entering into a binding contract.

This platform is intended for business use. Individuals who place orders or otherwise interact with a Merchant's WhatsMenu storefront ("End-Customers") contract directly with the Merchant, not with WhatsMenu. Where a subscriber is acting as a consumer rather than in the course of a business, mandatory consumer rights under applicable law continue to apply (see Section 15).

2. WHATSMENU'S RIGHTS

WhatsMenu provides various features and services subject to specific conditions. We reserve the right to:

  • Remove or reject any products, services, or content that violate our policies or applicable law
  • Terminate accounts immediately for harassment, abuse, or inappropriate behavior directed at WhatsMenu personnel
  • Request documentation to resolve account ownership disputes, with final decision-making power in such matters
  • Modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service, with reasonable notice where practicable

3. MERCHANT'S RESPONSIBILITIES

3.1 Fulfillment and Business Information
You agree to provide accurate contact information, refund policies, and order fulfillment details on your WhatsMenu Site. Our platform is not a marketplace — all sales contracts are direct agreements between you and your End-Customers. You are solely responsible for all business operations, product and service accuracy, transaction processing, legal compliance, and any violations of applicable laws.

3.2 Compliance and Legal Responsibility
You bear complete responsibility for all content, goods, or services offered through our platform, including compliance with all applicable laws and regulations in every jurisdiction where you operate or where your End-Customers are located. Using WhatsMenu for any illegal purpose is strictly forbidden. Prohibited activities include, but are not limited to:

  • Misleading Information: Providing false or deceptive information about products or services
  • Unauthorized Products: Selling counterfeit, pirated, or unauthorized goods
  • Fraudulent Activities: Engaging in scams, phishing, or other deceptive practices
  • Identity Fraud: Impersonating others or engaging in identity theft
  • Illegal Activities: Participating in hacking, malware distribution, or unauthorized system access
  • Content Violations: Sharing content that violates laws, regulations, or third-party rights
  • Safety Violations: Failing to comply with product safety, labelling, or information requirements
  • Restricted Goods: Selling items that are regulated or prohibited in the Merchant's or End-Customer's jurisdiction (e.g., alcohol, tobacco, pharmaceuticals, weapons, adult content) without proper licensing and age verification

WhatsMenu is not responsible for product eligibility or takedown disputes, which typically originate from regulators or rights holders. You are responsible for resolving such matters.

3.3 End-Customer Data and Privacy Obligations
When you collect or process personal data of your End-Customers through WhatsMenu, you act as the data controller under applicable data protection law (such as GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, PDPA, or others). WhatsMenu acts as your data processor. You agree that you will:

  • Maintain your own privacy notice disclosing how you handle End-Customer data
  • Obtain any consents required under applicable law
  • Handle End-Customer data lawfully, securely, and only for legitimate purposes
  • Respond to End-Customer data subject requests in line with applicable law
  • Not use End-Customer data obtained through WhatsMenu for unlawful marketing or unsolicited communications
  • Where required, enter into a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) with WhatsMenu, which is available upon request

You agree to indemnify WhatsMenu against any claims arising from your handling of End-Customer data.

3.4.4 Data Protection for Drivers When you add drivers to the WhatsMenu platform, you act as the data controller for their personal data under applicable data protection law (including GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA, LGPD, PDPA, or others). WhatsMenu acts as your data processor. You agree that you will:

  • Any accident, injury, or property damage caused by your drivers

  • Not instruct your drivers to breach those terms
  • Cooperate with WhatsMenu in resolving any issues involving driver accounts, including account suspensions for platform-level security or fraud concerns

3.5 Geographic and Sanctions Compliance
You represent that you are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any country or territory subject to comprehensive economic sanctions (including but not limited to those administered by the United Nations, United States, European Union, or United Kingdom), and that you are not on any applicable list of prohibited or restricted parties. You agree not to use the Service in any manner that would violate export control or sanctions laws.

5. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND YOUR MATERIALS

5.1 Your Content
You retain full ownership of all content you upload to our platform, including business names, logos, menu items, product descriptions, images, and other materials ("Merchant Content"). You are responsible for ensuring you have all necessary rights to the Merchant Content.

5.2 Licence to WhatsMenu
You grant WhatsMenu a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, display, transmit, and modify Merchant Content solely for the purpose of operating, maintaining, and providing the Services to you and your End-Customers. This licence terminates when you remove the content or terminate your account, except to the extent retention is required by law or for legitimate backup purposes.

5.3 Marketing Use
We may only use your business name, logo, or Merchant Content in our own marketing materials (e.g., case studies, testimonials, public customer lists) with your prior consent, which may be given or withdrawn at any time.

5.4 WhatsMenu Intellectual Property
All rights, title, and interest in the WhatsMenu platform, including its software, design, trademarks, and documentation, remain the exclusive property of Websumo Solutions. No rights are granted except as expressly set out in these Terms.

6. THIRD PARTY SERVICES

WhatsMenu is not responsible for third-party services (including Stripe, WhatsApp, Meta, Google, and any other integrated service), and you use them at your own risk. If you choose to use third-party services on the WhatsMenu platform, you consent to us sharing your data (and where applicable, End-Customer data) with those services for the purpose of providing the integration. WhatsMenu provides no warranty regarding third-party services. You are responsible for reviewing and complying with their terms and privacy policies.

7. PAYMENT OF FEES AND TAXES

7.1 Payment Method
WhatsMenu uses Stripe as its payment processor. All card data is securely managed by Stripe, and WhatsMenu does not retain payment card information. For issues related to your payment cards, please contact Stripe support directly.

Subscription fees are billed monthly or annually, depending on your chosen plan, and continue until your subscription is terminated.

7.3 Service Fees
Additional service fees may be charged for services requested beyond your subscription plan. If the initial payment attempt is unsuccessful, we may retry using the same method. If payment remains unsuccessful within 21 days of our initial attempt, WhatsMenu reserves the right to suspend or downgrade your account.

7.4 Currency and Pricing
Subscription and service fees are displayed and charged in the currency shown at checkout. Unless expressly stated otherwise, prices are exclusive of applicable taxes (such as VAT, GST, or sales tax), which will be added where required by law. Any currency conversion fees, foreign transaction fees, or card-issuer charges are your responsibility.

7.5 Price Changes
WhatsMenu may update subscription or service fees from time to time. We will provide at least 30 days' notice of any price increase affecting your current subscription, via email or in-platform notification. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the new fees.

7.6 Tax Responsibility
You are responsible for all taxes related to your business operations and your sales to End-Customers, including income tax, sales tax, VAT, GST, and any other applicable taxes in your jurisdiction. Where WhatsMenu is legally required to collect tax on its own fees to you, such tax will be added at checkout.

7.7 Refund Policy
Refunds are governed by our Refund Policy at https://whatsmenu.page/pages/refund-policy. Except as expressly stated in that policy or required by applicable law, subscription fees and service fees are non-refundable.

8. CONFIDENTIALITY

8.2 Obligations
Each party agrees to:

  • Use Confidential Information only to perform its obligations under these Terms

9.1 Service "As Is"
The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non-infringement, except to the extent such warranties cannot be excluded under applicable law.

9.2 Liability Cap

15. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE LAW

15.1 Data Protection
WhatsMenu complies with applicable data protection laws, including the EU/UK General Data Protection Regulation, the California Consumer Privacy Act, Brazil's LGPD, Malaysia's PDPA, and other applicable frameworks. You acknowledge that your use of the Services may involve the processing of personal data, and you agree to comply with all applicable data protection requirements, including those set out in Section 3.3.

15.2 Electronic Communications
You agree not to use the Services to send unsolicited bulk communications ("spam") or otherwise in violation of applicable electronic communications laws, including the US CAN-SPAM Act, the EU ePrivacy Directive, Canada's CASL, and any equivalent law in your jurisdiction.

15.3 Consumer Protection
These Terms do not limit any non-waivable rights you may have as a consumer under applicable law, including:

  • The EU Consumer Rights Directive and national implementations
  • The UK Consumer Rights Act 2015
  • The Australian Consumer Law
  • The California Consumer Privacy Act
  • The Malaysian Consumer Protection Act 1999
  • Other equivalent consumer protection laws in your jurisdiction

Where any provision of these Terms conflicts with a mandatory consumer right, the mandatory right prevails to the extent of the conflict.

16. FORCE MAJEURE

WhatsMenu shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performance due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, government actions, war, terrorism, riots, fire, pandemics, labor disputes, internet or cloud provider failures, or other third-party platform outages.

17.1 Governing Law
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Malaysia, without regard to conflict-of-law principles, except where applicable consumer protection law requires the law of your country of residence to apply.

17.2 Dispute Resolution
In the event of any dispute arising from these Terms, both parties agree first to attempt to resolve the matter through good faith negotiations for at least thirty (30) days. If negotiations fail, the dispute shall be resolved in the courts of Malaysia, and you submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of those courts.

17.3 Consumer Jurisdiction Carve-Out
If you are a consumer residing in a jurisdiction whose law grants you the right to bring proceedings in your local courts (such as the EU, UK, or Australia), nothing in this Section limits that right. You may also bring proceedings against WhatsMenu in the courts of your country of residence where permitted by law.

18. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be notified via email or in-platform notification at least 30 days before taking effect, unless the change is required by law or for security reasons. Your continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

19. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the remaining Terms remain in full force and effect.

20. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Refund Policy, and any applicable Data Processing Agreement, constitute the entire agreement between you and WhatsMenu regarding the use of the Service and supersede all prior agreements and understandings.

21. WAIVER

The failure of WhatsMenu to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

22. ASSIGNMENT

You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms without WhatsMenu's prior written consent. WhatsMenu may assign these Terms to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
