Philippine law alignment

Luvvapet is intended to operate in a manner consistent with applicable Philippine law, including the Data Privacy Act of 2012, the E-Commerce Act, the Consumer Act of the Philippines, and the Animal Welfare Act of 1998 as amended. Users remain responsible for their own compliance with all applicable laws, permits, licenses, disclosures, taxes, and lawful conduct.

This page states platform rules and operating standards. It is not legal advice to users.

1. Platform use and acceptance

Luvvapet is a platform for pet discovery, responsible sale listings, adoption and rehoming listings, service provider profiles, messaging, booking-related workflows, saved searches, and related trust and safety features. By creating an account or using the platform, you agree to these policies and to use the platform lawfully, honestly, and in good faith.

You must provide truthful, current, and non-misleading information in your account, listings, service profiles, verification submissions, and messages.

You are responsible for activity occurring through your account and for keeping your login credentials secure.

You must comply with applicable Philippine law and with any lawful platform rules, moderation decisions, and safety controls.

2. Eligibility, account integrity, and verification

You may not use fake identities, impersonation, false credentials, fabricated business information, or misleading animal information.

Luvvapet may require identity, business, adoption, provider, or related verification before enabling certain tools or routes.

Verification approval may be denied, paused, limited, or revoked when information is incomplete, unverifiable, misleading, unlawful, or unsafe.

Accounts associated with scams, fraud, harassment, animal welfare risks, charge abuse, document abuse, or repeated policy violations may be restricted or removed.

3. Listings, services, and user responsibility

Users posting sale listings, adoption listings, rehoming listings, or service profiles are responsible for accurate disclosures, lawful conduct, and safe engagement with other users.

Users responding to listings or services are responsible for verifying identity, condition, fit, documentation, and terms before any booking, payment, transport, handover, or in-person meeting.

Luvvapet may review, reject, edit for safety compliance, de-rank, suspend, archive, or remove listings, service profiles, or account features when required for trust, safety, compliance, or moderation.

Platform access does not guarantee buyer demand, adoption success, service bookings, provider approval, transaction completion, or user trustworthiness.

4. Payments, bookings, and off-platform conduct

Users remain responsible for confirming the legitimacy of any payment request, booking request, handover arrangement, or off-platform conversation.

Luvvapet may provide messaging or booking workflows, but is not the merchant of record for user-to-user sales, adoptions, rehoming arrangements, or independent service transactions unless clearly stated otherwise.

You may not use the platform for unlawful transactions, payment fraud, fake receipts, charge abuse, money laundering, or deceptive pressure tactics.

5. Suspension, removal, and enforcement

Luvvapet may investigate reports, listings, messages, documents, and account activity when reasonably necessary for moderation, fraud prevention, welfare review, or legal compliance.

Accounts, listings, service profiles, messages, and access routes may be limited or removed for policy violations, legal risk, animal welfare risk, or user safety risk.

Serious or repeated violations may result in permanent loss of platform access and referral to appropriate authorities when legally required.

6. Limitation of platform role

Luvvapet provides a digital platform, trust and safety controls, moderation systems, and related product features. Users remain responsible for their own decisions, due diligence, compliance, and conduct. Luvvapet does not guarantee the legality, quality, health, identity, solvency, or intentions of users, animals, providers, listings, services, or transaction outcomes.
