6. Selling Conditions

When listing an item for sale on our Services, you agree to comply with Motobyo’s Listing policies and Selling practices policy and that:

You assume full responsibility for the item offered and the accuracy and content of the listing. You agree to list your item honestly, with known mechanical problems, cosmetic problems, history problems, title problems and any other known information listed to give potential buyers a clear understanding of the item.
Your listing may not be immediately searchable by keyword or category for several hours (or up to 24 hours in some circumstances). Motobyo can’t guarantee exact listing duration.
Content that violates any policy may be modified, obfuscated or deleted at our sole discretion.
We may revise product data associated with listings to supplement, remove, or correct information.
We strive to create a marketplace where buyers find what they are looking for. Therefore, the appearance or placement of listings in search and browse results will depend on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:
searcher’s location, search query, browsing site, and history;
item location, listing format, price and shipping cost, terms of service, end time, history, and relevance to the user query;
seller history, including listing practices, Seller Ratings, Motobyo policy compliance, defect rate; and number of listings matching the buyer query.
To drive a positive user experience, a listing may not appear in some search and browse results regardless of the sort order chosen by the buyer.
Some advanced listing upgrades will only be visible on some of our Services.
Our Duplicate listings Policy may also affect whether your listing appears in search results.
Metatags and URL links that are included in a listing may be removed or altered so as to not affect third-party search engine results.
We may provide you with optional recommendations to consider when creating your listings. Such recommendations may be based on the aggregated sales and performance history of similar sold and current listings; results may vary for individual listings. To drive the recommendations experience, you agree that we may display the sales and performance history of your individual listings to other sellers.
For items listed in certain categories, subject to certain programs, and/or offered or sold at certain price points, we may require the use of certain payment methods, subject to our Payments methods policy. For example, buyers and sellers may be subject to escrow and/or payment handling requirements.

No Refunds. All vehicle purchases made from a Seller using our Service is between the applicable Buyer and Seller; for that reason, in the event you seek a refund related to a vehicle purchase or have any questions, you must directly contact the applicable Seller.

7. Vehicle offers and pricing recommendations

Motobyo utilizes proprietary pricing software to help guage the value of vehicles based on market conditions of similar vehicles with similar attributes. Any valuations or suggested vehicle values are provided for informational purposes only and are based on a vehicle with a clean title history, in normal operating condition, with normal options and packages and without damage. Motobyo’s value estimations are meant to be used as a guide on clean vehicles in excellent running condition with only light, normal wear. Any partner buying center will adjust the cash offer and/or reject any vehicle if the condition is different than as described by the seller, if the vehicle has out of the ordinary options, missing options, iregular features, mechanical problems, cosmetic problems, aftermarket equipments, interior damage or needed repairs, needed service or maintenance, etc. The partner buying center may refuse to purchase any vehicle for any reason and cannot be help liable for any reason. In the event of a pricing technology, mis-quote or other pricing malfunction Motobyo will refund any fees collected from the seller and allow the vehicle to be re-listed once th error has been corrected. This system is not designed to price junk vehicles, vehicles with prior title history issues or vehicles with major damages (either cosmetic or mechanical).

No Warranties. Motobyo specifically (but without limitation) disclaims (i) any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, quiet enjoyment, or non-infringement; and (ii) any warranties arising out of course-of-dealing, usage, or trade. You assume all risk for any/all damages that may result from your use of or access to the Services. Motobyo is not responsible for the loss of, damage to, or unavailability of any information you have made available through the Services, and you are solely responsible for ensuring that you have backup copies of any information you have made available through the Services.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of warranties or limitation of liability in certain circumstances. Accordingly, some of the above limitations may not apply to you.

8. Buying Conditions

When buying an item on our Services, you agree to the Rules and policies for buyers and that:

You are responsible for reading the full item listing before making a bid or committing to buy.
You enter into a legally binding contract to purchase an item when you commit to buy an item, your offer for an item is accepted, or if you have the winning bid (or your bid is otherwise accepted). A bid or offer that meets the reserve or is electronically accepted by a seller initiates a binding transaction. This creates a bonafide formal contract between the buyer and the seller. For this reason, it is imperative that all bidders make arrangements to have funds available to pay for any item that they place a bid on, before they place a single bid. We do not transfer legal ownership of items from the seller to the buyer and we do not step in help enforce these contracts between seller and buyer. We do take every Motobyo user’s actions seriously and will, at our discretion, limit, remove, terminate or otherwise cancel the account of any user who is not acting appropriately.

9. International Buying and Selling; Translation

Although our Services are intended to be used in the USA only, many of our Services are accessible internationally. We may offer certain programs, tools, and site experiences of particular interest to international sellers and buyers, such as estimated local currency conversion and international shipping calculation tools. Sellers and buyers are responsible for complying with all laws and regulations applicable to the international sale, purchase, and shipment of items.

If you purchase an item on a Motobyo site that is different from your registration site, you are subject to the User Agreement and applicable policies of that other Motobyo site with respect to that particular purchase, as detailed in the International Selling Policy.

For sellers, you agree that we may display your listing for sale on a Motobyo site other than the site where you listed your item for sale, based on your location and the location of interested buyers. The appearance of your listings on sites other than the listing site is not guaranteed. If you sell an item on a Motobyo site that is different from your registration site, you are subject to the User Agreement and applicable policies of both sites.

You authorize us to use automated tools to translate your listing content and member-to-member communications, in whole or in part, into local languages where such translation solutions are available. We may provide you with tools which will enable you to translate content at your request. The accuracy and availability of any translation are not guaranteed.

Both sellers and buyers consent to the disclosure of certain personally identifiable information, as well as listing and order information, by Motobyo to all parties involved in your transaction; including but not limited to: all buyers, sellers, escrow agent, service contract agents, any Motobyo employee or agent, etc.

Our collection, use, disclosure, retention, and protection of your personal information is governed by the User Privacy Notice. As described in our User Privacy Notice, Motobyo may collect other telephone numbers for you and may place manual non-marketing calls to any of those numbers and autodialed non-marketing calls to any landline.

Our automated systems scan and analyze the contents of every message sent through our messages platform, including messages between users, to detect and prevent fraudulent activity or violations of the User Agreement, including the incorporated terms, notices, rules, and policies. This scanning and analysis may occur before, during, or after the message is sent, or while in storage, and may result in your message being delayed or withheld.

Additionally, you may not use user information for marketing purposes, via electronic or other means, unless you obtain the consent of the specific user to do so. See privacy policy for additional terms concerning cookie use and marketing info.

12. Managed Payments

Motobyo has a managed payments service or “Payment Protection” plan that manages payments on behalf of both sellers and buyers when requested by either party or in the case of a vehicle sale where the buyer has a loan payoff on the vehicle being sold. In this case, the Payment Protection service is a required service and is paid for by the vehicle seller.

Motobyo will make contact with any seller of a vehicle opting to use the Payment Protection service either before the item has been sold or soon thereafter to collect all payoff and other information needed to transact with the bank or financial institution that holds the title. All bank accounts must be U.S. based.

The contract for sale underlying the purchase of goods is directly concluded between seller and the buyer in the same manner as for transactions for which the Payment Protection service entity does not manage payments.

If you are a buyer completing a purchase from a seller that is using the Payment Protection service:

You will pay for any vehicles, services, or products purchased directly to the Motobyo assigned Payment Protection service. By completing purchases from sellers who indicate the desire or need to complete the sale using the Payment Protection service, buyers authorize the Motobyo payment service to initiate payments using the buyers’ selected payment method and collect the transaction amounts on behalf of sellers.  Accordingly, payments received by the Payment Protection service agents from buyers satisfy buyers’ obligations to pay sellers in the amount of payments received. In certain instances, your transaction may be declined, frozen, or held for any reason including for suspected fraud, AML compliance, compliance with economic or trade sanctions, in connection with Motobyo’s internal risk controls or due to potential violations of any policy of Motobyo or the Payment Protection service, or a third party payments provider.

Motobyo, the payments entity or its affiliates may save payment information, such as credit card or debit card numbers, and card expiration dates, entered by you on our Services when you make a purchase, redeem a coupon, or make any other transaction on our Services where card information is entered. You are responsible for maintaining the accuracy of information in your profile, and you consent to Motobyo updating such stored information from time to time based on information provided by you, your bank or other payments services providers. You will only provide information about payment methods that you are authorized to use. You agree to comply with, and not cause a third party to violate, all applicable laws, regulations, rules and terms and conditions in connection with the use of our Payment Protection services. You understand that some third parties, such as credit and debit card issuers, credit and debit card networks and payments services providers, may have their own terms and conditions for the payment or settlement methods you choose to use in connection with any purchase or sale. Failure to abide by third party terms and conditions may result in fees assessed to you (for example, currency conversion fees from your credit card issuer if the transaction currency is different from your credit card currency) or other actions taken by such third parties, and you agree that the payments entity has no control over, or responsibility or liability for, such fees or actions.

13. Disclaimer of Warranties; Limitation of Liability

We try to keep our Services safe, secure, and functioning properly, but we cannot guarantee the continuous operation of or access to our Services. Bid update and other notification functionality in our applications may not occur in real time. Such functionality is subject to delays beyond our control.

You agree that you are making use of our Services at your own risk, and that they are being provided to you on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis. Accordingly, to the extent permitted by applicable law, we exclude all express or implied warranties, terms and conditions including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law, we (including our parent, subsidiaries, and affiliates, and our and their officers, directors, agents and employees) are not liable, and you agree not to hold us responsible, for any damages or losses (including, but not limited to, loss of money, goodwill or reputation, profits, other intangible losses, or any special, indirect, or consequential damages) resulting directly or indirectly from the content you provide (directly or indirectly) using our Services;
your use of or your inability to use our Services; pricing, shipping, format, or other guidance provided by us; delays or disruptions in our Services;
viruses or other malicious software obtained by accessing or linking to our Services; glitches, bugs, errors, or inaccuracies of any kind in our Services;
damage to your hardware device from the use of any Motobyo Service;

the duration or manner in which your listings appear in search results as set out in the Listing Conditions Section above; or
your need to modify practices, content, or behavior, or your loss of or inability to do business, as a result of changes to this User Agreement or our policies. Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of warranties or exclusion of damages, so such disclaimers and exclusions may not apply to you.
Regardless of the previous paragraphs, if we are found to be liable, our liability to you or to any third party is limited to the amount of fees that we collected from you in connection with the single transaction in dispute.

14. Release

If you have a dispute with one or more users, you release us (and our affiliates and subsidiaries, and our and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes. In entering into this release you expressly waive any protections (whether statutory or otherwise) that would otherwise limit the coverage of this release to include only those claims that you may know or suspect to exist in your favor at the time of agreeing to this release.

16. Legal Disputes

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS AND WILL HAVE A SUBSTANTIAL IMPACT ON HOW CLAIMS YOU AND MOTOBYO HAVE AGAINST EACH OTHER ARE RESOLVED.

In this Legal Disputes Section, the term “related third parties” includes your and Motobyo’s respective affiliates, subsidiaries, parent companies, predecessors, successors, assigns, as well as your, Motobyo’s, and these entities’ respective employees and agents.

You and Motobyo agree that any claim or dispute at law or equity that has arisen, or may arise, between you and Motobyo (or any related third parties) that relates in any way to or arises out of this or previous versions of this User Agreement, your use of or access to the Services, the actions of Motobyo or its agents, or any products or services sold or purchased through the Services, will be resolved in accordance with the provisions set forth in this Legal Disputes Section.

A. Applicable Law
You agree that, except to the extent inconsistent with or preempted by federal law, the laws of the State of Pennsylvania, without regard to principles of conflict of laws, will govern this User Agreement and any claim or dispute that has arisen or may arise between you and Motobyo, except as otherwise stated in this User Agreement.

B. Agreement to Arbitrate
You and Motobyo each agree that any and all disputes or claims that have arisen, or may arise, between you and Motobyo (or any related third parties) that relate in any way to or arise out of this or previous versions of the User Agreement, your use of or access to our Services, the actions of Motobyo or its agents, or any products or services sold, offered, or purchased through our Services shall be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court. The maximum liability of such a claim for Motobyo will be equal to the amount of user fees that we ave collected from you in respect to the single transaction in dispute. Alternatively, you may assert your claims in small claims court, if your claims qualify and so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis. The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement to Arbitrate.

Arbitration Procedures
Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and court review of an arbitration award is very limited. However, an arbitrator can award the same damages and relief on an individualized basis that a court can award to an individual. An arbitrator should apply the terms of the User Agreement as a court would. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to arbitrability, the scope or enforceability of this Agreement to Arbitrate, or the interpretation of Section 1 of this Agreement to Arbitrate (“Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief”), shall be for a court of competent jurisdiction to decide.

The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules and procedures, including the AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules and the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules (as applicable), as modified by this Agreement to Arbitrate. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org. In the event that the AAA is unavailable to administer the arbitration, another administrator will be selected by Motobyo and/or its agents.

A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a valid Notice of Dispute (“Notice”). The Notice to Motobyo must be sent to Motologiq, Inc., Attn: Litigation Department, Re: Notice of Dispute, 601 Dresher Road, Suite 300, Horsham, PA  19044. We will send any Notice to you to the physical address we have on file associated with your Motobyo account; it is your responsibility to keep your physical address up to date. To be valid, you must personally sign the Notice and complete all information on the Notice form, including a description of the nature and basis of the claims you are asserting, the specific relief sought, and the email address and phone number associated with your account.

If we are unable to resolve the claims described in a valid Notice within 30 days after Motobyo receives that Notice, you or Motobyo may initiate arbitration proceedings. A form for initiating arbitration proceedings is available on the AAA’s site at www.adr.org. In addition to filing this form with the AAA in accordance with its rules and procedures, the party initiating the arbitration must mail a copy of the completed form to the opposing party. You may send a copy to Motobyo at the following address: Motologiq, Inc 601 Dresher Road, Suite 300, Horsham, PA  19044. In the event the Motobyo initiates an arbitration against you, we will send a copy of the completed form to the physical address we have on file associated with your Motobyo account. Any settlement offer made by you or Motobyo shall not be disclosed to the arbitrator.

The arbitration hearing shall be held in the county in which you reside or at another mutually agreed location. Where no disclosed claims or counterclaims exceed $1,000, the dispute shall be resolved by the submission of documents only, subject to the arbitrator’s discretion to require an in-person hearing, if the circumstances warrant. In cases where an in-person hearing is held, you and/or Motobyo may attend by telephone, unless the arbitrator requires otherwise.
