Terms of Service
Version 1.0.0 · Last Updated: September 2026
Welcome to ApneTailor. By accessing or using our mobile application, website, or related services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with these terms, please do not use our services.
1. Description of Service
ApneTailor is a hyperlocal tailoring platform that connects customers with independent tailors for custom clothing stitching services from the comfort of their homes. By leveraging a network of local tailors, ApneTailor significantly reduces traditional stitching turnaround times, helping customers receive their stitched garments faster while maintaining quality and convenience.
2. Eligibility
You must be legally capable of entering into a binding agreement to use our services. By using ApneTailor, you confirm that the information provided during registration is accurate and complete.
3. User Responsibilities
- Provide accurate account information.
- Provide accurate measurements, addresses, and order details.
- Use the platform lawfully and responsibly.
- Maintain the security of your account.
- Promptly report unauthorized account access.
- Respect tailors, delivery partners, and other users.
4. Tailor Responsibilities
Tailors using the platform are responsible for providing accurate business information, completing verification steps required for onboarding, fulfilling accepted orders timely & professionally, and complying with applicable laws and regulations.
5. Orders and Services
Order timelines and delivery dates are estimates and may vary due to measurement issues, customer delays, fabric availability, logistics, or unforeseen circumstances.
Customers are responsible for reviewing all order details before confirming an order.
6. Fulfilment Policy
ApneTailor facilitates custom stitching by connecting customers with independent tailors and coordinating related pickup, stitching, and delivery steps through the app. Fulfilment typically includes:
- The customer placing an order with garment type, measurements, notes, and images
- Nearby tailors responding with pricing and an expected completion date
- The customer accepting an offer and completing payment through the app
- Fabric pickup from the customer to the tailor, where the customer provides fabric
- Stitching by the assigned tailor, including progress updates where supported
- Delivery of the finished garment to the customer
Where the tailor provides fabric, the initial customer-to-tailor fabric pickup may not apply. ApneTailor is a platform and logistics coordinator; independent tailors perform the stitching work. Estimated dates are not guaranteed completion or delivery times.
If an order appears delayed, inactive, incorrectly statused, or otherwise stuck, authorized ApneTailor personnel may intervene as reasonably necessary for operations, customer support, quality review, or platform integrity. This may include reviewing the order, communicating with the customer or tailor, and updating, correcting, or advancing order statuses and related records. Such intervention does not guarantee a particular outcome, timeline, refund, or service result.
7. Payments
Payments processed through the platform must be completed using approved payment methods. Users agree to pay all applicable charges associated with their orders.
8. Refunds and Cancellations
Payments made through ApneTailor are generally non-refundable once an order, service, or transaction has been confirmed or processed. However, refund requests related to transactions made through either the ApneTailor User App or the ApneTailor Tailor App may be reviewed on a case-by-case basis depending on the circumstances of the order, payment, cancellation, service issue, or dispute. Refund requests may be submitted by contacting ApneTailor customer support.
Approval of any refund is subject to review by ApneTailor and may depend on applicable policies, the status of the order or service, and other relevant circumstances. Cancellation terms depend on the order status at the time of the request. Orders that have progressed significantly through the stitching workflow may not be eligible for full cancellation or refund.
For additional detail, see our Refund and Cancellation Policy.
9. In-App Communications
Customers and tailors may communicate through in-app chat to coordinate orders. These communications are provided to support fulfilment and are not treated as private from the platform. Authorized ApneTailor personnel may access and review chats where reasonably necessary for day-to-day operations, customer support, feedback and quality review, dispute handling, safety, fraud prevention, and enforcement of these Terms.
