Abusing fleapod

fleapod works very hard to keep the Sites working properly and the Community safe. Please report problems, offensive content, and policy violations to us @ admin@fleapod.com
Without limiting other remedies, we may limit, suspend, or terminate our service and user accounts, prohibit access to our website, delay or remove hosted content, and take technical and legal steps to keep users off fleapod if we think that they are creating problems, possible legal liabilities, or acting inconsistently with the letter or spirit of our policies. We also reserve the right to cancel unconfirmed accounts or accounts that have been inactive for a long time.

Services

Posting on fleapod and purchasing listed items is free.

Content License

When you give us content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable (through multiple tiers) right to exercise the copyright, publicity, and database rights (but no other rights) you have in the content, in any media known now or in the future.

Liability

You will not hold fleapod responsible for other users' actions or inactions, including things they post. fleapod is  a venue to allow anyone to offer, sell, and buy anything for FREE. We are not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers. We have no control over and do not guarantee the quality, safety or legality of items advertised, the truth or accuracy of listings, the ability of sellers to sell items, the ability of buyers to pay for items, or that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction.
We do not transfer legal ownership of items from the seller to the buyer. Unless the buyer and the seller agree otherwise, the buyer will become the item's lawful owner upon physical receipt of the item from the seller.  Further, we cannot guarantee continuous or secure access to our services, and operation of fleapod may be interfered with by numerous factors outside of our control. Accordingly, to the extent legally permitted, we exclude all implied warranties, terms and conditions. We are not liable for any loss of money, goodwill, or reputation, or any special, indirect, or consequential damages arising out of your use of fleapod. Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of warranties or exclusion of damages, so such disclaimers and exclusions may not apply to you.

Release

If you have a dispute with one or more users, you release us (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees) 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.

Access and Interference

fleapod contains robot exclusion headers. Much of the information on fleapod is updated on a real-time basis and is proprietary or is licensed to fleapod by our users or third parties. You agree that you will not use any robot, spider, scraper or other automated means to access fleapod for any purpose without our express written permission.
Additionally, you agree that you will not:

• take any action that imposes or may impose (in our sole discretion) an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure;
• copy, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, distribute, or publicly display any content (except for Your Information) from fleapod without the prior expressed written permission of fleapod and the appropriate third party, as applicable;
• interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of fleapod or any activities conducted on fleapod; or
• bypass our robot exclusion headers or other measures we may use to prevent or restrict access to fleapod.

Indemnity

You will indemnify and hold us (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees), harmless from any claim or demand, including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by any third party due to or arising out of your breach of this Agreement, or your violation of any law or the rights of a third party.
