All sellers on Gold Gini are expected to follow these selling policies and maintain high standards of honesty, professionalism, product quality, and customer service when listing and selling products on the platform.
1. Misuse of the Gold Gini Platform
Gold Gini provides sellers with access to a shared marketplace and selling infrastructure. Sellers must use the platform responsibly and must not negatively affect other sellers, customers, or Gold Gini's systems.

- Use platform features for purposes other than their intended business use.
- Bypass Gold Gini's policies, security measures, or seller restrictions.
Gold Gini may restrict, suspend, or block access to features, product uploads, feeds, or other selling functions if a seller misuses the platform or makes excessive or unreasonable use of its services.
