Terms & Conditions
Last updated: October 2026
1. Who you are contracting with
These terms are between you and Mas Vuka (Pty) Ltd, registration number 2026/820444/07, with its registered office at 1 Acacia Ln, Riverglen, Midrand, Gauteng, 2191 (“Mas Vuka”, “we”, “us”), the seller and operator of the Mas Vuka platform. By creating an account or continuing to use the service, you agree to these terms. If you use the service for an organisation, you confirm you have authority to bind that organisation; if you use it as an individual, you confirm you are at least 18 years old.
2. The service
Mas Vuka provides South African labour-law information, calculators, document templates, training, workflow tooling and an AI information assistant. Mas Vuka is a software and information product only, designed to help companies work within the applicable legislation as it currently stands. We are not a law firm or legal entity, do not provide legal, professional or regulated advisory services, and using the service does not create an attorney-client or other professional relationship. Content reflects the legislation within its stated scope and may not include the latest amendments or your specific circumstances. Outputs may be inaccurate or incomplete and are not a substitute for advice from a qualified labour practitioner or attorney.
You remain responsible for your company’s compliance decisions. Reliance on the service is at your own risk, and Mas Vuka accepts no liability for decisions taken on the basis of its content, tools or training materials, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
3. Acceptable use
You must not misuse the service, including by:
- using it for any unlawful purpose, fraud or spam;
- infringing anyone’s intellectual property rights;
- interfering with the service’s security, including malware, probing or scraping;
- reverse engineering, reselling or redistributing the service, or circumventing plan limits;
- submitting content you have no right to use, or using AI outputs to mislead, defame or discriminate.
You are responsible for your inputs to the AI assistant, for how you use its outputs, and for verifying their accuracy before acting on them.
4. Intellectual property
Mas Vuka retains all ownership of the service and its intellectual property, including software, documentation, templates and branding. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the service within your selected plan. You grant us a limited licence to host and process content you submit, solely to provide the service to you.
5. Accounts
Keep your sign-in credentials confidential. You are responsible for all activity under your account and for providing accurate information and keeping it up to date.
6. Payments, subscriptions and refunds
Mas Vuka (Pty) Ltd is the seller for all orders. Payments are processed securely by PayFast (payfast.io), a South African payment gateway, on its own hosted payment page. Prices are in South African Rand and include VAT where applicable.
Subscriptions run for one year. By default nothing is charged automatically: before your subscription ends we send a renewal reminder with a payment link, and access and seats continue once the renewal payment is confirmed. If the company owner chooses automatic yearly renewal at checkout, PayFast securely stores the payment method (Mas Vuka never sees or stores card details) and charges the same amount once a year on the renewal date until the owner turns automatic renewal off in the billing area. Once-off document packs do not renew. A tax invoice and receipt are issued by Mas Vuka (Pty) Ltd for every purchase and renewal, and company owners and HR can download them from the billing area. Our refund terms are set out in our refund policy.
7. Service level
We do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free performance. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose.
8. Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, consequential or special damages, including loss of profits, data or goodwill. Our aggregate liability is capped at the fees you paid in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing in these terms excludes liability for fraud, death or personal injury where the law does not allow it.
9. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or terminate access for material breach, non-payment, security or fraud risk, or repeated or serious violations of these terms. When access ends, you may request an export of your data within 30 days, after which it may be deleted.
10. General
These terms are governed by the laws of South Africa, and the South African courts have jurisdiction. You may not assign these terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger or acquisition. We are not liable for failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
