While we encourage sellers to establish clear and detailed shop policies, these policies must align with Palmstreetâs platform policies and Terms and Conditions.
If there is a conflict between a sellerâs shop policies and Palmstreetâs platform policies, our platformâs policies take precedence. This ensures a consistent and equitable experience for all users.
