In the event of a conflict, the terms contained in an Addendum will supersede conflicting terms contained in these Terms.

4. Delivery

The “Hukum Web Dashboard” will be made available to the Merchant to access on-demand logistic services by Delivery Partners.

Hukum will not have any obligation to deliver the Item(s) as a platform provider. For purposes of delivery of the Items, Hukum and the Delivery Partners shall operate (i) under cover of any approval, license or permission required to operate your business at the Merchant Outlet and sell the Item(s) and (ii) under your control, as your agent (including but not limited to receipt agent of Item charges and based on your instructions, if applicable, apply the Item charges collected on your behalf towards disbursal of the fee payable by you to Delivery Partner), and not employee.

You shall have marketable legal right and title to sell the products or render the services.
