ThingsMatch helps people post items they no longer need and connect with others who may want or be able to use them.

Although we work to make ThingsMatch useful and reliable, we cannot guarantee that every listing, description, photograph, match, location, quantity, measurement, contact detail, or other piece of information is accurate, complete, current, or suitable for a particular purpose.

User-Provided Information

Listings and related information on ThingsMatch are provided by users. This may include item descriptions, photographs, locations, quantities, measurements, condition, composition, ownership, availability, and collection or delivery details.

ThingsMatch does not independently inspect every item or verify all information provided by users. We cannot guarantee that user-provided information is accurate, complete, current, or reliable.

Users should review listing details carefully, communicate directly with one another, ask appropriate questions, and inspect or verify an item before agreeing to collect, deliver, exchange, transfer, or use it.

Matches and Recommendations

ThingsMatch may suggest matches based on information provided by users, including their listings, preferences, needs, and locations.

Matches, suggestions, search results, and recommendations are intended only as helpful starting points. A match does not guarantee that an item is available, accurately described, suitable, safe, lawful, or appropriate for the receiving user’s intended purpose.

A match displayed by ThingsMatch does not represent an endorsement, certification, inspection, verification, partnership, or guarantee.

Item Condition and Availability

Items may be changed, reserved, withdrawn, transferred, given away, exchanged, or otherwise become unavailable without notice.

Descriptions, photographs, quantities, measurements, materials, quality, condition, origin, ownership, and availability may be inaccurate or incomplete. Photographs may not show every defect, hazard, or relevant feature.

Users should confirm an item’s condition and availability directly with the person who posted it before making arrangements or travelling to collect it.

Ownership and Authority

Users must only post items they own or have permission and legal authority to offer.

ThingsMatch does not guarantee that a person posting an item is its legal owner or has the authority to give, exchange, or transfer it. Users are responsible for completing any checks they consider necessary before accepting an item.

Safety and Suitability

Users are responsible for deciding whether an item is safe, lawful, suitable, and appropriate for its intended use.

Some items may be damaged, defective, contaminated, expired, recalled, hazardous, restricted, or subject to special handling, storage, transportation, or disposal requirements. Users should not rely solely on a listing or match when making decisions that could affect health, safety, property, or the environment.

Where appropriate, users should inspect or test an item and seek advice from a suitably qualified person before using it.

Arrangements Between Users

Unless ThingsMatch expressly states otherwise, all communication, inspection, collection, delivery, exchange, transfer, and other arrangements are made directly between users.

ThingsMatch does not guarantee that another user will respond, attend an agreed meeting, provide accurate information, complete an arrangement, deliver or collect an item, or comply with agreed terms.

Users are responsible for taking reasonable precautions when communicating, meeting, exchanging items, or sharing personal information with others.

Legal Compliance

Users are responsible for ensuring that their listings, communications, items, and arrangements comply with all applicable laws and regulations.

Items that are illegal, unsafe, stolen, counterfeit, prohibited, or otherwise unsuitable for transfer must not be posted or exchanged through ThingsMatch.

Limitation of Reliance

Users are responsible for verifying information before relying on it. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, ThingsMatch is not responsible for losses, costs, delays, damages, injuries, failed arrangements, unsuitable matches, or other consequences arising from inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, misleading, or unavailable information.

Nothing in this disclaimer excludes or limits any responsibility that cannot legally be excluded or limited.
