However, unless explicitly specified by the terms of use for a particular Service (each a “Product’s Terms”), THE SERVICES ARE NOT INTENDED TO provide you with any financial, legal, real estate, or related advice of any kind. You understand and agree that the Services may include advertisements. To help make the advertisements relevant and useful to you, SiteBid may serve advertisements based on the information we collect through the Services. See our Privacy Policy for more details.

    1. Reproduce, modify, distribute, display, or reverse engineer any portion of the Services, except as explicitly permitted by any Product’s Terms to the extent applicable to that product’s Services.
    2. Provide or authorize a link to any of the Services from a third-party website that is not a real estate-related website owned or operated by a real estate or lending professional or institution.
    3. Remove or modify any copyright or other intellectual property notices in the Services.
    4. Use the Services unlawfully or in a way that harms the SiteBid, its service providers, suppliers, affiliates, or any other users.

  4. E-commerce and Service Fees. All transactions on SiteBid shall be governed in accordance with these Terms and Conditions along with the Pro Services and Listing Ad Terms of Use and Participation Agreement.
    1. Generally. You may be required to pay fees to access certain features of the Services. All fees are in U.S. dollars and are non-refundable. If we change the fees for all or part of any of the Services, including by adding fees or charges, we will provide you advance notice of those changes. If you do not accept the changes, we may discontinue providing the applicable part of the Services to you. Our authorized third-party payment processors will charge the payment method you specified at the time of purchase or as agreed to as part of the selected Service. You authorize us to charge all fees as described in these Terms of Use for the Services you select to that payment method. If you pay any fees with a credit card, we may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account before your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase.
    2.  Subscriptions. The Services may include features that allow for automatically recurring payments for periodic charges (“Subscription Service”). If you decide to activate a Subscription Service, you authorize us to periodically charge, on a going-forward basis and until cancellation of either the recurring payments or your account, all accrued sums on or before the payment due date for the accrued sums. The subscription will continue unless and until you cancel your subscription, or we terminate it. You must cancel your Subscription Service before it renews in order to avoid billing of the next periodic subscription fee to your account. We will bill the periodic subscription fee to the payment method you provide to us during registration (or to a different payment method if you change your payment information). We may change the subscription fee for any subsequent subscription period but will provide you advance notice of any increase before it applies. Unless otherwise stated in your Product’s Terms, you may cancel a Subscription Service through the settings page in your account, by contacting us at support@sitebid.com, or, if applicable by contacting your business consultant.
    3. Transactions. During your visit to our site you may elect to engage in a transaction involving the purchase of a product such as a featured listing, a online advertisement or other tangible goods and services. To serve you most efficiently, credit card transactions and order fulfillment are often handled by a third party processing agent, bank or distribution institution. While in most cases transactions are completed without difficulty, there is no such thing as “perfect security” on the Internet or offline. If you’re concerned about online credit card safety, in most cases a telephone number will be made available so you can call us and place your order by phone. SiteBid cannot take responsibility for the success or security of transactions undertaken or processed by third parties. On occasion, a product or service may not be available at the time or the price as it appears in an advertisement. In such event, or in the event a product is listed at an incorrect price or with incorrect information due to typographical error, technology effort, error in the date or length of publication, or error in pricing or product information received from our advertisers or suppliers, you agree SiteBid is not responsible for such errors or discrepancies.
  5. User Materials:
    1. UGC Definition; License Grant. Certain portions of the Services may allow users to upload or otherwise provide SiteBid images, photos, video, data, text, listings, and other content (“User Materials”).

    2. UGC Disclaimer. We have no obligation to monitor or control User Materials, and we do not guarantee the accuracy, integrity, or quality of User Materials. We are not responsible for any User Materials, and we make no representations or warranties regarding User Materials. We may, in our sole discretion, remove or disable access to any User Materials that we believe may violate these Terms or be otherwise objectionable. We disclaim all liability for any User Materials.
    3. User Materials Removal Request. If you believe that any User Materials violate your rights or are otherwise objectionable, you may request removal of those User Materials by contacting us at [contact email address]. Please include detailed information about the User Materials and the basis for your request.
    4. User Materials Feedback. If you provide any feedback or suggestions regarding User Materials or SiteBid, you agree that we may use and incorporate such feedback or suggestions into SiteBid or our services without any obligation to you.

All information, content, services, and software displayed on, transmitted through, or used in connection with SiteBid.com or affiliated sites of SiteBid, including websites, stories, reviews, blogs, listings, guides, photographs, illustrations, audio clips, video, HTML, source, and object code, are owned by SiteBid and its affiliates.

You may not use any meta tags or any other hidden text utilizing or incorporating SiteBid’s name or trademarks. Requests to use content for any purpose other than as permitted in these Terms of Use should be directed to SiteBid by contacting us. In certain cases, you may be able to obtain permission to use individual stories that appear on SiteBid through online functionality we have specifically designated (e.g., to e-mail a story to a friend or to purchase the rights to reproduce a story for other use). In such cases, we will tell you directly in the portion of the site you may license or you will see a link in the site itself. If you do not see such authorization or link, you should assume no third party has the right to allow you to use material from the site.

All rights in this paragraph are granted without the need for additional compensation of any sort to you.

  8. Communications with Third Parties Through SiteBid. Your dealings or communications through SiteBid with any party other than SiteBid are solely between you and that third party. For example, certain areas of SiteBid may allow you to contact third party agencies, conduct transactions, or purchase goods or services. In most cases, these transactions will be conducted by our third-party partners and vendors. Under no circumstances will SiteBid be liable for any goods, services, resources, or content available through such third-party dealings or communications, or for any harm related thereto. Please review carefully that third party’s policies and practices and make sure you are comfortable with them before you engage in any transaction. Complaints, concerns, or questions relating to materials provided by third parties should be forwarded directly to the third party. During your visit to SiteBid, you may link to or view certain content that is actually created or hosted by a third party.

User further agrees that such emails, calls and/or text messages may constitute advertising or telemarketing, e.g. SiteBid may email, call, or text with information about new service offerings available to User. User understands that agreeing to receive Other Messages that constitute advertising or telemarketing is not a condition to purchase. User further agrees that calls between User and consumers or SiteBid employees may be recorded for quality control, training, and other internal business purposes. For certain Services provided by SiteBid, User acknowledges that call recording may not be disabled by User.

  15. ValueTrack Disclosure
    SiteBid provides valuation estimates for leases through our ValueTrack estimate (“ValueTrack” or “Estimate”). The ValueTrack lease valuation model is SiteBid’s estimate of a lease’s market value. A ValueTrack Estimate incorporates public and user-submitted data into SiteBid’s proprietary formula, also taking into account lease facts, location and market trends. It is not an appraisal and can’t be used in place of an appraisal.

      1. Your use of the SiteBid Network is at your sole risk. The SiteBid Network is provided on an “as-is” and “as-available” basis.
