Terms of Service

1. Introduction

Welcome to sohoinchina.com. These Terms of Service govern your use of our website and services. By engaging with us, you agree to these terms.

2. Supplier Directory Disclaimer

The manufacturers and suppliers listed on this website are companies with whom we have historical cooperation records or IT service agreements.

However, unless you engage SOHO in China for a specific paid Verification or Sourcing Service:

  • We provide NO GUARANTEE regarding the current financial status, production capability, or quality of these suppliers.
  • We assume NO LIABILITY for any disputes, financial losses, or quality issues arising from direct transactions between you and the listed suppliers.
  • You engage with these suppliers entirely at your own risk.

3. Basic Verification Services ($1,000+)

For our Basic Verification Service, our obligation is limited to providing a "snapshot" of the supplier's status at the time of the audit. This includes verifying business licenses, conducting an on-site visit to document existence, and basic photo/video evidence. This is a risk-mitigation tool, not a guarantee of future performance or product quality.

4. Managed Sourcing Services ($10,000+)

Our Platinum Managed Sourcing is an enterprise-level service. Specific contractual terms regarding Quality Control (QC), Logistics (DDP), and Legal Protection will be outlined in a separate Service Agreement. Qualification for this service requires:

  • A Semrush Global Rank within the Top 3 Million.
  • A minimum annual procurement volume of $200,000 USD.

5. Communication Policy

We operate strictly on a B2B basis. We reserve the right to ignore inquiries sent from personal email addresses (Gmail, Yahoo, etc.). All official communication must be conducted via corporate email domains. Our WhatsApp support line is exclusively for verified clients.

6. Governing Law

These terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Shanghai, People's Republic of China.
