Date of Last Revision: April 5, 2014
Mark (the "Site") is a connective platform for individuals, businesses, and organizations who want to buy, sell, and monetize great domain names.
Please read these terms and conditions of service ("Terms of Service") in detail. By accessing or using our website and services, you agree to be bound by the terms and conditions of these Terms of Service, and all terms incorporated in to these Terms of Service by reference.
Mark is excited for you to use the Site but understands if you do not do so because you do not agree to all of these Terms of Service.
These Terms of Service apply to your access to, and use of, the website and services of Reinvent, Inc. ("Mark"), doing business as www.mark.com (the "Site").
You represent and warrant that you are authorized to accept these Terms of Service on behalf of yourself (and any other person or entity that uses your account), and that you and such entity agree to indemnify Mark for violations of these Terms of Service.
While we always like to be available for you, the Internet is inherently unreliable so your access to and use of the Site may be interrupted, slow, or even inaccessible at times. Mark also needs time to update the Site, and while Mark tries to do this during slow periods, Mark cannot always wait or schedule downtime that way.
These basic terms apply to your use of Mark. Mark will terminate your account if you violate any of these terms:
Mark reserves the right to change or modify any of the terms and conditions in these Terms of Service or any policy or guideline of the Site, at any time and in its sole discretion.
Any changes or modifications to these Terms of Service will be effective immediately upon posting on the Site, and you waive any right you may have to receive specific notice of such changes or modifications. Your continued use of this Site following the posting of any changes or modifications constitutes your acceptance of such changes or modifications. Therefore, you should frequently review these Terms of Service and applicable policies to understand the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Site. If you do not agree to the changed or modified terms, you must stop using the Site.
If you have any question regarding the use of the Site, please refer first to the Frequently Asked Questions portion of the Site. All other questions or comments about the Site or its contents can be entered on our Contact page.
In order for you to become a registered User "User" of Mark and enjoy the services at the Site, you must sign up by providing a valid email address, along with creating a password for your account.
In order to become a User, you must be 18 years of age and agree to these Terms of Service.
You may not engage in any fraudulent or illegal behavior while using the services or the Site.
Mark reserves the right to stop or suspend the services for a definite or indefinite period at any time. User hereby agrees that Mark shall have no liability by its users resulting from stopping or suspending the services for a definite or an infinite period. User hereby irrevocably accepts Mark's rights and limited liabilities and agrees to become a User under these terms.
Creating a user account on Mark is free of charge. Users may list domain names for sale or rent without charge, as many as they wish as long as they have controlling interest for the said domain names. The listing User is subject to a 5% commission fee, on all successful sales and rentals. The commission fees are deducted from payments owed to the listing User. Each Party is responsible for its own taxes and service fees which they may incur from their Bank or Financial Institution.
All fees for Mark Services or Goods provided are quoted in United States Dollars. All fees and prices are non-refundable unless otherwise expressly noted, even if the Services are suspended, terminated or transferred prior to the end of the Services term. Mark expressly reserves the right to change or modify its fees or commissions at any time and such changes or modifications shall be effective immediately without need for further notice.
Listing Users are responsible for all fees related to registration and use of the domain.
If Mark, for any reason, is unable to receive payment from the User's method of payment for the full amount owed for the Services or Goods provided, or if Mark is charged a penalty for any fee it previously charged to the User, the User agrees that Mark may pursue all available lawful remedies in order to obtain payment. If the User pays by credit card and if for any reason Mark is unable to charge the User's credit card with the full amount owed for the Services provided, or if Mark is charged back for any fees it previously charged to the User's credit card, the User agrees that Mark may pursue all available lawful remedies in order to obtain payment. The User agrees that the remedies Mark may pursue in order to effect payment shall include, but not be limited to, immediate cancellation without notice to the User.
