Who holds product liability in online dropshipping?

[Daan5]

Hi,

I have a question. Who is liable if there is a problem with the product? Is Shopify liable or (for example) cjdropshipping? I was thinking that Shopify is just for the site and not liable for anything, But I just wanted to make sure.

Hi there @Daan5!

As we're not able to give legal advice from here in Shopify at all, we would have to direct you to consult with a qualified expert where you are.

You can check out the Shopify Terms of Service you would have agreed to here, and the section on liability specifically can be read here.

There's a bit more info here on dropshipping and product liability on our help site you might also like to check out.

All the best!
