Dibspace Transaction Guidelines

The Dibspace service enables users to connect with each other by posting classified ads on Dibspace (the "Service"). All listings posted on or through the Services ("Listings") and all transactions conducted in connection therewith, are subject to and governed by these Dibspace Transaction Guidelines (the "Guidelines") as well as the Dibspace Terms of Service. WHEN YOU USE THE DIBSPACE SERVICE IN ANY MANNER YOU ARE AGREEING TO ABIDE BY THESE GUIDELINES ("GUIDELINES") AND THE OTHER RULES SET FORTH IN OUR TERMS OF SERVICE.

Please note that all Listings are posted and offered by the user, not by Dibspace, and the parties participating in a transaction are solely responsible for all aspects of such transaction and for resolving any disputes that arise in connection therewith, including but not limited to payment processing, fulfillment and customer support.

Listing Rules

  • All Listings must be accurate and not misleading, and you may not use the Service in a fraudulent manner or to engage in any fraudulent activity or purpose or to impersonate any person or entity.
  • You may not list any item for sale, lease or rent that is not in your possession or that you do not have the right to sell lease or rent at the time the item is listed.
  • You may not post any material that contains or links to any viruses, worms, Trojan horses, corrupted data or other harmful, disruptive or destructive files or programs.
  • You may not post in your Listings any content that is infringing, obscene, offensive, harassing, hateful, inflammatory, abusive, defamatory, harmful, fraudulent, or invasive or privacy or publicity rights or otherwise violates these Guidelines or the Terms of Service.
  • You may not promote, encourage or solicit illegal activity of any kind.
  • You may not offer, list, sell or lease any items that are designated in these Guidelines as Prohibited Items or that would violate these Guidelines in any manner.
  • Dibspace does not recognize the transfer of Dibits or Dibspace Accounts ("Account") outside of Dibspace. You may not purchase or sell any Dibits or Account, or offer to purchase or sell any Dibits or Account, and any such attempt shall be null and void and may result in the suspension of your account. Accordingly, you may not sell Dibits for "real" money, or exchange the Dibits for value outside of Dibspace.

All Listings and all transactions entered into through the Service must comply with all applicable laws, rules, regulations and restrictions, and you may not offer, list, sell, lease, solicit, request or provide anything through the Service in a jurisdiction where such action would violate any law, rule, regulation or restriction. The parties to a transaction are solely responsible for researching and determining the scope of the applicable law to determine whether a listing or transaction complies with applicable law.

General Rules and Guidelines

  • The parties to a Dibspace transaction are solely responsible for all interactions with each other, for arranging for payment, customer service and the exchange and fulfillment of the goods or services purchased, and for the results of the transaction and for all applicable taxes.
  • As far as the IRS is concerned, barter dollars are identical to real dollars and are therefore taxable. Barter exchanges, such as Dibspace, are required to record and report transactions to the IRS. Dibspace is not responsible for any failure to pay any amounts due, or to deliver any merchandise or services as promised or for any other aspect of the transaction.
  • You should be aware that Listings are intended to be public, and regardless of any privacy settings you select, Listings that you post on Dibspace and questions or comments you post in connection with the Services may in some cases become publicly available on the Dibspace Site. For example, (i) questions that you send regarding a Listing, may be posted by the person who initiated the Listing in connection with such Listing, (ii) your Listings may be visible to all Dibspace users (unless you specify that your Listing be viewable only by those in particular networks, or unless you block a specific Dibspace user), and (iii) users who can view your Listing are able to send you messages through your Listing, even if your message setting is set to receive messages only from your Dibspace friends or an otherwise restricted set of users. Therefore, you should also avoid posting phone numbers, email addresses or other personal information in your Listings and in any questions or comments you may post in connection with any Listings.
  • Parties to a transaction should exercise caution in providing contact information or personal information to the other party and in making personal contact with the other party. Dibspace is not responsible for the actions of any of its users, and this Service is provided AS IS AND AT YOUR OWN RISK.
  • Both parties to a transaction are responsible for determining if the transaction is illegal or otherwise does not fully comply with applicable law.
  • You are responsible for all listings posted and all other activities conducted using your password, and you should protect your password and not disclose it to any other person.
  • The Service may not be used to solicit or obtain user passwords.
  • You must own or otherwise have the right to use all photographs used in any Listings, and such photographs must accurately represent the item involved in your transaction.
  • You may not use the Dibspace service to send spam or other unsolicited commercial emails of any kind or send spam to any user you locate through the Service.
  • You may not use the Dibspace Site or the Service to solicit Dibspace users to post ads on other sites
  • You may not use information that a specific user navigated from the Dibspace Site to your web site or any personally-identifiable information regarding any user of the Dibspace Site to target communications specifically to users of the Dibspace Site without Dibspace's prior written consent.
  • Dibspace reserves the rights to immediately and without notice terminate any Listings or your use of Dibspace, for any reason, or no reason, at its sole discretion, including without limitation if you violate these Guidelines or the Terms of Service.
  • If you believe a Listing violates these Guidelines or the Terms of Service, you may report the violation to Dibspace and Dibspace will determine in its sole discretion how to address such Listing. It is a violation of these Guidelines to intentionally misreport a Listing as violating these Guidelines or the Terms of Service.

These Guidelines may be modified or replaced by Dibspace at any time without notice in its sole discretion. Any changes or modification will be effective immediately upon posting of the revisions on the Site. Your continued use of the Dibspace service following the posting of such changes or modifications will constitute your acceptance thereof. Therefore, you should review these Guidelines from time-to-time and before posting any Listings or otherwise using the Service. If you do not agree to the amended terms, you must stop using the Service.
