Terms of Use

Last updated: November 3, 2025

1. Overview

These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of software platforms and services offered by Mateza ("Mateza," "we," "our," "us"), including our websites, dashboards, APIs, and licensed products (collectively, the "Services"). By accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

Digital Services Only: Mateza services, and any products or content delivered through them, are limited to digital software and services delivered electronically. Mateza does not support the sale, fulfilment, or shipment of physical goods or any product requiring physical delivery.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least the legal age of majority in your jurisdiction and have the authority to enter into these Terms on behalf of yourself or an organization.

3. Account Registration and Security

You must provide accurate information and keep it up to date. You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for all activities under your account. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use or security incident.

4. Licensing and Access

License: Subject to these Terms and applicable order forms, Mateza grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access and use the Services for your internal business purposes.

White-labeling: Where enabled, you may brand certain interfaces, provided you do not misrepresent ownership or origin of the software. White-labelled or branded versions of Mateza must comply with all Mateza and Polar acceptable-use requirements. The software may not be used to enable third parties to sell physical goods or otherwise breach these policies.

Fulfilment Model: All digital services provided through Mateza must be fulfilled automatically or electronically, with no manual or physical intervention required.

Restrictions: You may not:

  • Copy, modify, or create derivative works of the Services
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Services except where permitted by law
  • Bypass technical protections, rate limits, or access controls
  • Use the Services to build a competing product
  • Use the Services for unlawful, harmful, or deceptive activities
  • Offer services that are primarily or entirely performed by humans (such as consulting, custom design, or manual fulfilment), unless digital automation is the primary delivery method
  • Operate a multi-vendor marketplace, or resell third-party products or services through Mateza, unless each sale is of a digital product fully owned or licensed by you

5. Subscriptions, Billing, and Merchant of Record

Subscriptions: Access may be provided via subscription or license fees described in your order.

Merchant of Record: Payments may be processed by Mateza or a designated Merchant of Record (MoR), such as Polar. Where Polar acts as the Merchant of Record, the transaction relationship is between the customer and Polar as the reseller of digital goods and services. Mateza functions solely as the software provider facilitating digital access.

Taxes: Fees are exclusive of applicable taxes, duties, and levies, which you are responsible to pay.

Late/Failed Payments: We may suspend or terminate access for nonpayment.

6. Trials and Beta Features

We may offer trials or beta features. These are provided "as is," may change or end at any time, and may have limited support.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Services to:

  • Violate laws or third-party rights (including IP, privacy, or data protection laws)

Mateza's prohibited uses align with the Merchant of Record Acceptable Use Policy of Polar ([https://polar.sh/docs/merchant-of-record/acceptable-use](https://polar.sh/docs/merchant-of-record/acceptable-use)). Polar's Acceptable Use Policy is incorporated by reference for all services provided through or in connection with Polar's Merchant of Record function.

Users of Mateza agree to comply with all applicable laws and with Polar's Merchant of Record Acceptable Use Policy. Mateza reserves the right to suspend or terminate access to maintain compliance with such policies.

We may suspend accounts that violate this section.

8. Compliance and Enforcement

Users must self-certify that their use of Mateza involves only digital goods and services compliant with these Terms and Polar's Acceptable Use Policy. Prior to onboarding or enabling certain features, Mateza may require documentation or review of your business model and intended use cases.

Mateza actively monitors for compliance and reserves the right to audit, suspend, or terminate accounts for violations. You agree to cooperate with compliance reviews and provide necessary information upon request.

9. Customer Data and Privacy

"Customer Data" means data you or your users submit to the Services.
