You cannot share accounts on B2B. Your account must be for you only, and only you should use it.

Age

You must be over 18 to use the B2B platform. If you are under 18, you must have your parent/guardian’s permission to use it.

Civil behaviour

You are expected to behave civilly here, and your contributions should be both relevant and tasteful. You should not behave in a way that would break Singapore law or any other applicable international laws, or that would cause harm of any kind to the site or its users. The NAPP takes no responsibility for your contributions or those of any other user.

Making the platform work

We have done everything we can to make the B2B platform a pleasure to use, but we cannot promise that everything will always work. There might be problems with particular browsers or operating systems, or there might just be a technical glitch. Whenever we become aware of problems that make the platform difficult to use, we will work to fix them.

Copyright

Everything you see on B2B is copyright of the NAPP unless otherwise stated. Some content has been shared by other organisations; this content is the copyright of the organisation who shared it.

If you create information on B2B – whether as part of your profile, as a discussion or anything else – you are giving us permission to use it. We will not publish or share anything personal, like your email address. For more information on how we use your personal data, see our privacy policy.

Security and risk

The internet can never be 100% secure, though we have done everything we can to keep your data safe. You take responsibility for the risk of uploading or downloading anything to/from B2B.

Where there are links to external websites on the platform, the NAPP takes no responsibility for the content or security of those websites and does not formally endorse them or the organisations behind them.

Changing the terms and conditions

When things change – either with the site or in law – we might need to update these terms and conditions. It is your responsibility to remain up-to-date, so we suggest you check back from time-to-time to check for any changes.

If there are notices on the site that would override these terms and conditions – copyright for a particular image, for example – then the notice on the site is the correct one.
