Maisha Meds Terms of Use
Updated 25 March, 2020
Maisha Meds is offering its point of sale application (“the Software Application”) to you to make it easier for you to track your business’s sales transactions, see your stocks, manage suppliers, access and manage credit, and track inventory.
This Agreement is between a Registered User of the Software Application and Maisha Meds. By signing below, you agree to be bound by the terms of service outlined in this Agreement.
The term “you” refers to a person or organization that has registered for the Maisha Meds Software Application. If you accept this Agreement, you agree that you have the capacity to be bound by it or, if you are acting on behalf of a company or entity, that you have the authority to bind such entity. You may not use the Software Application and you may not accept this Agreement if you are not of a legal age to form a binding contract with Maisha Meds.
1. The Software Application
The Maisha Meds Software Application is a point-of-sale and inventory management system that allows Registered Users to track stocks and analyze their business data.
2. Registration
You agree to provide Maisha Meds with accurate contact information, including phone number, address and copies of National ID, national revenue authority registration number (KRA PIN or other), valid pharmacy registration certificate and required licenses. Users in other locations should enter accurate contact details into the Software Application. By providing us with your phone number or other contact information, such as an email address, you agree that we may communicate with you via SMS or electronically to that mobile number or email address as part of the service and that any communications sent to those addresses will serve as a formal notice under this Agreement.
Upon registration, you will be assigned a (1) Administrator User Name of your choosing, and (2) sample password. You may change the password provided to you through the Settings within the Software Application. As an Administrator, you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password, which allows exclusive access to some functions within the Software Application.
Each facility may also register multiple Basic User Accounts, each with its own password. The Administrator can restrict the types of access allowed to Users, for example limiting the ability to change stock levels to the store owner.
