Tender information on TenderPal is aggregated from public sources and is provided for informational purposes only. We make no warranty as to the completeness, accuracy, or timeliness of any tender listing. Always verify tender details directly with the procuring entity before submitting a bid. TenderPal accepts no liability for losses arising from reliance on data displayed on the platform.

Enquiries submitted via the Tender Specialist form are forwarded to independent specialists. Any engagement with a specialist is a separate commercial arrangement between you and that specialist. TenderPal is not a party to that arrangement and accepts no liability for specialist services rendered or omitted.

By posting an RFQ you confirm that you have authority to issue the request and that all information provided is accurate. TenderPal reserves the right to remove any RFQ that violates these terms or applicable law without notice.

The TenderPal name, logo, platform design, and original content are the intellectual property of TenderPal (Pty) Ltd. Government tender notices reproduced on the platform remain the property of the respective procuring entities. You may not reproduce or redistribute TenderPal's original content without written permission.

To the maximum extent permitted by South African law, TenderPal's total liability to you for any claim arising from these terms or the use of the platform is limited to the fees you paid to TenderPal in the 3 months preceding the claim. TenderPal is not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential loss.

We may suspend or terminate your account at any time for breach of these terms, fraudulent activity, or non-payment. We will give reasonable notice where practical. Sections covering intellectual property, limitation of liability, and governing law survive termination.

These terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of South Africa. Any disputes will be subject to the jurisdiction of the South African courts.
