  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website, accounts, systems, servers, databases, or networks;
  • Introduce viruses, malware, malicious code, bots, or other harmful material;
  • Scrape, crawl, harvest, copy, reproduce, or systematically collect website content or product data without our prior written permission;

  1. Website content and product information

We aim to provide useful and accurate website content. Product listings may include product names, photographs, categories, prices, stock codes, locations, condition information, specifications, descriptions, and related content.

Products may be new, used, refurbished, demonstrator, surplus, or otherwise described in the listing or written quotation. Used and second-hand equipment may show signs of use, wear, age, repair, modification, repainting, or storage.

Because the website contains a large and changing product catalogue, information may occasionally be incomplete, outdated, delayed, or affected by typographical, technical, pricing, image, or availability errors. Product information should be confirmed before purchase, especially for high-value, used, specialised, or safety-critical equipment.

Photographs are provided for identification and illustration. Images may not show every accessory, attachment, defect, variation, or item included with a product. Colour and appearance may differ depending on the device used to view the image.

Website content does not constitute professional engineering, farming, financial, legal, tax, insurance, safety, or operational advice.

  1. Pricing and availability

Prices are shown in South African Rand unless stated otherwise. Some products may be marked excluding VAT, and the applicable VAT treatment should be confirmed on the relevant listing, quotation, invoice, or checkout.

Product prices, availability, specifications, stock status, and delivery arrangements may change without notice before an order is accepted. A product displayed on the website is not necessarily reserved until Rapid Dawn Industrial confirms the order or sale in writing.

Purchases, delivery, payment, returns, warranties, and refunds are governed by the applicable Terms of Sale and the written terms provided for the particular transaction.

  1. Accounts and login information

Some website features may permit or require you to create an account. You are responsible for:

  • Providing accurate and current registration information;
  • Keeping your username, password, and account information confidential;
  • Using a strong password and changing it if you suspect compromise;
  • All activity carried out through your account, unless caused by our failure to take reasonable security measures; and
  • Not allowing another person to use your account without permission.

You must notify us promptly if you suspect unauthorised access or misuse of your account. We may suspend or close an account where necessary for security, legal, operational, or policy reasons.

  1. Enquiries, reviews, and submitted content

The website may allow users to send enquiries, submit reviews, or provide information through forms, email, product pages, or other communication channels.

  • Contain malware, advertising spam, or unauthorised commercial promotions;
  • Include another person’s personal information without permission;
  • Contain threats, hate speech, harassment, obscene content, or unlawful material; or
  • Make false or misleading statements about a person, product, or business.

You retain ownership of content you submit. By submitting content to Rapid Dawn Industrial, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, adapt, display, publish, and use it as reasonably necessary to operate, improve, promote, and administer the website and our services.

We may moderate, edit, reject, remove, or disable access to submitted content where we reasonably believe it breaches these terms, applicable law, or the interests of users or the business. We do not guarantee that user reviews or statements reflect our views or are accurate.
