5. UKbride's Role While UKbride helps facilitate transactions that are carried out on the website, UKbride is neither the buyer nor the seller of the goods.

Accordingly, the contract formed at the completion of a sale is solely between buyer and seller. The enforcement of any contractual obligations arising out of the completion of a transaction using the Service is the responsibility of the buyer and seller that are party to that transaction. UKbride is not obliged to mediate between buyers and sellers or enforce or execute fulfilment of any contract. Buyers and sellers use the Site and the Service at their own risk. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, the seller will resolve any subsequent dispute directly with the buyer.
