Payments
Users may elect to use the Service to take online payments through payment processors such as PayPal. In all circumstances, we serve only as an intermediary in respect of such payments. In other words, we only calculate prices, forward users to a payment page and attempt to track whether payments have been successfully made. At no point in time do we hold payments in escrow or in our own accounts, payments are made directly between users. Accordingly, refunds and changes must be addressed between users directly.

This includes any file, text, photo, video, or audio-recording. You further irrevocably waive any claims to moral rights to any material.

We will also not be responsible for any failure to perform due to any events beyond our control (including failures of the Internet), nor any damage caused by the unilateral and immediate termination of the Service.
Notwithstanding the above disclaimer of liability, in the event we are held liable in a Court of Law, our liability shall be limited to the amount equal to the fees paid by you to us in the three months prior to the event giving rise to the liability, or if this amounts of zero, $100 per plaintiff or $500 to a class of plaintiffs.
