BollyWedBliss is a Neutral Venue
The Site is an innovative community and marketplace for the wedding industry. BollyWedBliss is not a wedding product or service provider , wedding vendor or an agent representative. Site members (“Members”) include prospective brides and grooms, newlyweds and their Wedding guests (collectively, “Wedding Members”) and companies and other third parties offering products and services related to Weddings (“Vendor Members”). We and the Site function solely as a neutral venue and digital clearinghouse where Wedding Members and Vendor Members may connect for a particular type of service or product. We are not involved in or a party to the actual transaction between Members. As a result, We have no control over the quality, accuracy, safety, or legality of the transactions that take place on the Site, the accuracy of listings, or the ability of Vendor Members to provide items or services and We or our affiliates are not responsible for the actions or inactions of Wedding Members or Vendor Members.
Wedding Members
You acknowledge the following: We do not provide any of the products or services advertised or offered by Vendor Members. We do not endorse any Vendor Member, nor do We guarantee the quality of their goods or services. Any and all communications, correspondence, verbal or written, or any warranties or representations, made with regard to products and services offered through the Site are not provided by us and are specifically and solely between you and the Vendor Member. Any transaction you enter into with a Vendor Member is strictly between you and the Vendor Member, and BollyWedBliss is not a party to that transaction. Any dispute you have with a Vendor Member is between you and the Vendor Member, and We and our affiliates will not be a party to that dispute.
We use techniques to help verify the identity of Vendor Members when they register for memberships on our Site; however, We cannot and will not guarantee any service provider’s identity; nor can we guarantee their capabilities. We have implemented a user-managed feedback system to help you evaluate Vendor Members with whom you are considering transacting business. In addition, We cannot guarantee that information provided by or about Vendor Members on the Site is accurate. You should use the Site as a starting point for identifying vendors to provide the products and services you need for your wedding, then conduct your own research to ensure that vendors you choose to do business with are appropriate for you. You acknowledge that participation in certain programs, when and if available, may under certain circumstances result in Vendor Members receiving contact information for you in accordance with the terms and conditions governing these programs.
Vendor Members
You acknowledge the following: We will not endorse you or your products or services. We are in no way responsible for assisting you in reaching an agreement with Wedding Members; nor are We responsible for assisting you in providing goods and services to Wedding Members; Vendor Members are the only entities liable for fulfilling any legal requirements applicable to their professional activity; we are not responsible for ensuring that Vendor Members are appropriately licensed. While all Wedding Members are required to give us accurate information about themselves, We cannot and will not verify this information or guarantee the ability of Wedding Members to complete payment for any of the products or services you provide. Any transaction you enter into with a Wedding Member is strictly between you and the Wedding Member, and BollyWedBliss is not a party to that transaction. Any dispute you have with a Wedding Member is between you and the Wedding Member, and We will not be a party to that dispute. After We and the Vendor Member have terminated our relationship, We shall be entitled to retain all reviews associated with a Vendor Member on the Site as well as basic directory information, including, without limitation, business name, address and telephone number.

Rating and Review Disputes
If you undermine the integrity of our Rating and Review system in any way, your membership may be suspended or terminated. Each Vendor Member acknowledges that your Rating and Review (“feedback”) consists of opinions left by other Site Members and a machine calculated feedback score. You further acknowledge that BollyWedBliss does not make judgments on the veracity of opinions or statements.
Feedback Rules:
- Members may only leave one feedback item per unique transaction, whether positive, neutral, or negative, for any Vendor Member.
- The Member leaving the review must have conducted business with the Vendor Member and be able to provide proof of that business.
- By submitting feedback, you agree that feedback is subject to compliance audit by the Site Compliance Team at any time. Any feedback item investigated by the Site Compliance Team may be temporarily or permanently removed.
In order to protect the integrity of the Rating and Review system, We will only consider removing a feedback item under the following scenarios:
- If feedback posted contains language that is profane, vulgar, discriminatory or contains adult material
- If We are provided with a binding ruling or settlement agreement from a valid and certified dispute resolution service, or is provided with a court order finding that the feedback is slanderous, defamatory or otherwise illegal or the court order requires removal
- If feedback posted makes any reference to actions taken or purported to be taken by Us or any law enforcement organization
- If feedback posted seeks to elicit or solicit any Member’s contact information, such as other Member email addresses, for any non-Site related commercial or business purposes, or to transmit any unsolicited advertising, “junk mail,” “spam,” or “chain letters”
- If the Member who left feedback cannot be reached by Us or fails, within two months from the date We attempt to contact such member as part of the dispute process, to validate that the business was conducted with the Vendor Member
- If feedback contains personally identifiable information of other members, personnel of Vendor Members or any other person. Personally identifiable information includes, but is not limited to, full names, date of birth, physical addresses, email addresses, credit card numbers, social insurance numbers or any other identification number provided by a government
