AbanCart provides two complementary services:
- For shoppers: A browser extension that lets you save shopping carts from online stores and revisit them later from any device, including via a personal cart-view link you can share.
- For retailers (brands): A platform that helps recover abandoned shopping carts through AI-assisted WhatsApp conversations with customers who have opted in.
3. Your Account
You sign in to AbanCart using a magic link sent to your email address. You are responsible for:
- Providing a valid email address

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

5. The Extension and Third-Party Websites
The AbanCart browser extension reads cart data from online stores you visit, solely to provide the cart-saving functionality. By installing the extension, you authorise it to read this data on your behalf. AbanCart is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or responsible for any third-party stores or websites.
6. WhatsApp Communications
If you opt in to WhatsApp cart recovery messages, you consent to receive messages via WhatsApp from AbanCart on behalf of specific retailers. You may opt out at any time by replying STOP or via the extension Settings. Standard message rates from your carrier may apply.
7. Intellectual Property
The Service, including all software, design, text, and trademarks, is owned by AbanCart and protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, or distribute any part of the Service without our written consent.
You retain ownership of your cart data. By using the Service, you grant AbanCart a limited licence to store and process that data solely to provide the Service to you.
8. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT ANY PARTICULAR CART RECOVERY WILL SUCCEED.
9. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ABANCART SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFITS OR DATA, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM SHALL NOT EXCEED £100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS, WHICHEVER IS GREATER.
10. For Business Customers (Brands)
If you use AbanCart's brand recovery platform, additional commercial terms will apply as set out in your service agreement. In particular:
- You are responsible for ensuring your use of the WhatsApp Business API complies with Meta's policies
- You must not direct AbanCart to send messages to customers who have not opted in
- You are responsible for the accuracy of any discount codes or offers sent on your behalf

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any disputes shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
