Terms of Use: ROTAX-OWNER CLASSIFIEDS

These Terms of Use set out the terms on which we offer you access to and use of our Classifieds Ads browsing, searching, and posting features (collectively "Services"). You can find an overview of our general website policies here. All existing policies, including our Privacy Policy are incorporated into these Terms of Use. You agree to comply with all the above when accessing or using our Services. 


Rotax-Owner.com may at any time revise these terms and conditions by updating this posting. By using our Web site, you agree to be bound by any such revisions and should therefore periodically visit this page to determine the then current Rotax-owner.com Classifieds Terms Of Use Policy to which you are bound. YOUR CONTINUED USE OF THIS WEB SITE AFTER ANY CHANGES TO THE PRIVACY/LEGAL POLICY CONSTITUTES YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THE REVISED TERMS OF USE POLICY.


Your Account. In order to access and use some or a portion of the Services, you may be required to register with us and set up an account with your email address and a password (your “Account”). The email address you provide will be your email address, and you are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password. You are solely responsible for all activities that occur under your Account. Therefore, you should protect your password and make your password difficult for others to guess.

You may connect to the Services with a third-party service and you give us permission to access, store, and use your information from that service as permitted by that service and as may be described in our Privacy Policy. If you believe your Account may have been compromised or misused, contact us immediately at Rotax-Owner Customer Support.

Using Rotax-Owner Classifieds. You will post in the appropriate category or area and will not do any of the following bad things:
 

  • violate any laws or our Prohibited Content Policy;
  • be false or misleading;
  • infringe any third-party right;
  • distribute or contain spam, chain letters, or pyramid schemes;
  • distribute viruses or any other technologies that may harm Rotax-Owner or the interests or property of Rotax-Owner users;
  • impose an unreasonable load on our infrastructure or interfere with the proper working of the Rotax-Owner;
  • copy, modify, or distribute any other person's content;
  • use any robot, spider, scraper or other automated means to access Rotax-Owner and collect content for any purpose without our express written permission;
  • harvest or otherwise collect information about others, including email addresses, without their consent;
  • bypass measures used to prevent or restrict access to Rotax-Owner.


Abusing Rotax-Owner Classifieds. Please use the flagging system to tell us about any problems or offensive content so that together we can keep the Services site working properly. We may limit or terminate our Services, remove hosted content and take technical and legal steps to keep users off Rotax-Owner if we think that they are creating problems or acting inconsistently with the letter or spirit of our policies. However, whether we decide to take any of these steps, remove hosted content or keep a user off Rotax-Owner or not, we do not accept any liability for monitoring Rotax-Owner or for unauthorized or unlawful content on Rotax-Owner or use of Rotax-Owner by users.


Fees and Services. Using Rotax-Owner Classifieds to browse ads, view ads, or search for ads is generally free for everyone, everywhere. Using Rotax-Owner Classifieds to post Classified Ads is generally free for all Rotax-Owner members with a Paid subscription in good standing. We may charge fees for certain optional Services. If the service you use charges a fee, you will be able to review and accept that charge. Our fees are quoted in American Dollars, and we may change them from time to time. We will notify you of changes to our fee policy by posting such changes on the site. We may choose to temporarily change our fees for promotional events or new services; these changes are effective when we announce the promotional event or new service. Our fees are non-refundable, and you are responsible for paying them when they're due. If you don't, we may limit your ability to use the Services. If your payment method fails or your account is past due, we may collect fees owed using other collection mechanisms (for accounts over 180 days past due, you permit us to instruct PayPal to deduct the amount owed from your PayPal account balance).  

Canadian taxes associated with our Services will be collected when applicable.  You agree to provide accurate address information necessary for Rotax-Owner to comply with its obligations under applicable law. To the extent that such information is not provided, Rotax-Owner will in its discretion determine and collect appropriate taxes.

You are solely responsible to collect and remit any applicable taxes resulting from the sale of your items or services listed on Rotax-Owner. 
 

Content. Rotax-Owner Classifieds contains stuff from us, you, and other users. You agree not to copy, modify, or distribute Rotax-Owner Classifieds, our copyrights or trademarks. When you give us content, you are granting us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sub-licensable right to exercise the copyright, publicity, and database rights to that content. If you believe that your rights have been violated, please notify Rotax-Owner Customer Support  and we will investigate the matter. We reserve the right to remove content where we have grounds for suspecting the violation of these terms or the rights of any other party.

 

Reporting Intellectual Property Infringements (Verified Rights Owners - VeRO). Do not post content that infringes the rights of third parties. This includes, but is not limited to, content that infringes on intellectual property rights such as copyright and trademark (e.g. offering counterfeit items for sale). We reserve the right to remove content where we have grounds for suspecting the violation of these terms, our policies or of any party's rights. The following steps are for reporting a listing to Rotax-Owner that you believe to be infringing on your intellectual property rights. Only the intellectual property rights owner can report of potentially infringing items or listings through Rotax-Owner's VeRO Program. If you have a good faith belief that a listing on any of the Rotax-Owner Classifieds infringes your copyright, trademark, or other intellectual property rights, all you need to do is download our Notice of Claimed Infringement (NOCI) form, fill it out, and scan and email it to Rotax-Owner. After we receive your first NOCI, Rotax-Owner will confirm your enrolment in our program and send you the instructions on how to submit future reports electronically. We reserve the right to share, in accordance with applicable law, the completed NOCI form with the third party that originally posted the potentially infringing listing.

 

Disclaimers and Limitations of Liability. The Rotax-Owner Classifieds are provided “as is” and “as available”. You agree not to hold us responsible for things other users post or do. You also agree not to hold us responsible for the payment processing of other service providers such as PayPal or any credit card provider (each a “Third Party Payment Processor”. For greater certainty, as applicable, if you link a Third Party Payment Processor account to your Rotax-Owner Account, you acknowledge and agree that by making payments through Rotax-Owner with that Third Party Payment Processor, you are bound by that Third Party Payment Processor’s applicable terms and conditions, and we are not liable for any loss, claims or damages howsoever arising in connection with that third party’s services). As most of the stuff on the Rotax-Owner Classifieds comes from other users, we do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, efficacy or timeliness of any postings or user communications or the quality, safety, or legality of what is offered. We also cannot guarantee continuous or secure access to our Services. Notification functionality in our Services may not occur in real time. Such functionality is subject to delays beyond our control, including without limitation, delays or latency due to your physical location or your wireless data service provider’s network. Accordingly, to the extent legally permitted we expressly disclaim all warranties, representations and conditions, express or implied, including those of quality, merchantability, merchantable quality, durability, fitness for a particular purpose and those arising by statute. We are not liable for any loss, whether of money (including profit), goodwill, or reputation, or any special, indirect, or consequential damages arising out of your use of Rotax-Owner, even if you advise us or we could reasonably foresee the possibility of any such damage occurring. Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of warranties or exclusion of damages, so such disclaimers and exclusions may not apply to you.

 

Despite the previous paragraph, if we are found to be liable, our liability to you or any third party (whether in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability in tort, by statute or otherwise) is limited to the greater of (a) the total fees you pay to us in the 12 months prior to the action giving rise to liability, and (b) 10 Canadian Dollars.


Indemnification. You will indemnify and hold harmless Rotax-Owner and its affiliates and our and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees (each an “Indemnified Party”), from any claim made by any third party, together with any amounts payable to the third party whether in settlement or as may otherwise be awarded, and reasonable legal costs incurred by any of the Indemnified Parties, arising from or relating to your use of the Rotax-Owner Classifieds, any alleged violation by you of the applicable terms, and any alleged violation by you of any applicable law or regulation. We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, but doing so will not excuse your indemnity obligations.
 

Personal Information. By using Rotax-Owner Classifieds, you agree to the collection, transfer, storage and use of your personal information by Rotax-Owner.com (the "data controller") on servers located in Canada as further described in our privacy policy

 

General. These terms and the other policies posted on Rotax-Owner.com constitute the entire agreement between us and you, superseding any prior agreements. This agreement is governed by the laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. We both submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of British Columbia. This will not affect your statutory rights if you are a consumer and applicable consumer law requires application of another law for certain topics. If we don't enforce any particular provision, we are not waiving our right to do so later. If a court strikes down any of these terms, the remaining terms will survive. We may automatically assign this agreement in our sole discretion in accordance with the notice provision below (our assignment to an affiliate will not require notice). We will send notices to you via the email address you provide, or by registered mail. Notices sent by registered mail will be deemed received five days following the date of mailing. We may update this agreement at any time, with updates taking effect when you next use the site or after 30 days, whichever is sooner. No other amendment to this agreement will be effective unless made in writing, signed by users and by us. Send questions, comments or complaints to Rotax-Owner Customer Support.
