Government regulation of the Internet and e-commerce is evolving, and unfavorable changes or failure by us to comply with these regulations could substantially harm our business and operating results.

Our operations are significantly influenced by existing and evolving regulatory regimes across the jurisdictions in which we operate. Compliance with consumer protection laws, data privacy frameworks (such as GDPR, the Australian Privacy Act, and PRC PIPL), and trade regulations directly impacts how we structure our ecommerce platform, collect and store user data, and ship goods internationally. For example, recent changes to independent contractor classification laws in certain jurisdictions may require us to reassess our reseller engagement model, increasing labor-related compliance costs.

As our business expands geographically and technologically, we expect the regulatory burden to increase. While we actively monitor and adapt to these changes, noncompliance or sudden changes in enforcement could adversely affect our operations, financial condition, or strategic plans.

It is possible that general business regulations and laws, or those specifically governing the Internet or e-commerce, may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another and may conflict with other rules or our practices.
