Trade Federation Market

TERMS AND CONDITIONS

This document is considered accepted by all users, factions, and non-faction groups (NFGs) that have an account and use said account for the purpose of selling, purchasing, trading, or otherwise using any aspect of the Trade Federation Market (TFM) including any subscription tools, price index, or any other portion of the website

1. Communication
1.1 - Communication is based on the request of the shop, seller, or otherwise specified in each listing. The user is responsible for looking for the proper contact method and address. Order Messages are recommended as the preferred method when an order has been placed, as the system will notify all parties clearly when one is submitted.
1.2 - All users registered on the TFM website accept that any form of discrimination is forbidden. Furthermore, the TFM actuates a PG-13 communications policy, and all users are expected to exercise appropriate discretion thereof. Should breaches of those stipulations occur, Market Team Members reserve the right to discipline the offending accounts. Users should report any such situations to the Market Administrator directly or through the administrative request system, and Market Team Members will make a judgement as to the extent(if any), of the breach.

2. Updates
2.1 - These Terms and Conditions are subject to change whenever necessary. Updates will be announced via the news announcement or article portions of the site. Users are responsible for looking for the changes or inquiring if they are affected.

3. Access
3.1 - The Trade Federation Market (TFM) is a trading platform run by the Market Team. TFM is open to all not presently banned in the Star Wars Combine (SWC).
3.2 - All sales made via the TFM are considered as contracts subject to the Trade Federation Code of Commerce. Users which have committed (or attempted) a crime against another user will therefore be dealt with according to the provisions of that code.

4. Exploits and Modifications to Code
4.1 - Users who exploit (or attempt to exploit) any flaws with the TFM will be severely punished. Exploiting a flaw includes, but is not limited to, form modification, injection, and any other non-standard acts of use on the TFM (via exploits, bugs, or links etc.).
4.2 - Users who initially discover a flaw are expected to disclose them to The Market Team with details on how they came to discover the flaw. Users who can reasonably be expected to have seen notice of a flaw who utilize such a flaw themselves outside the scope of regular use will be subject to the punishments listed below. In short, we expect users to follow SWC`s Golden Rule while using the TFM.
4.3 - Such incidents will be investigated by the TFM Team, and users found guilty will face punishments up to (and including) suspension of accounts, or a total ban from the TFM.

5. Customer and Seller Responsibilities
5.1 - It is both the customer`s responsibility that they abide by both these Terms and Conditions as well as the Terms of the seller (individual, faction, NFG, or shop). It is the seller`s responsibility to remain active, be clear with customers, and make sure their terms and conditions do not contradict these Terms and Conditions.

6. Exclusivity of Listings
6.1 - To ensure a consistent and reliable user experience, TFM strictly prohibits "Double Listing." Users are expressly forbidden from offering any item for sale on the TFM platform while simultaneously listing that same item on any third-party marketplace or commercial platform.
6.2 - Failure to comply with this exclusivity requirement constitutes a material breach of these Terms.
6.3 - TFM reserves the right to impose disciplinary action on repeat offenders, up to and including the permanent termination of account privileges and a total ban from the platform.

7. Prohibition of Private or Restricted Listings
7.1 - All listings published on the TFM Platform must be made available for purchase by the general user base. The creation of ad-hoc or "private" listings intended for a specific buyer or restricted group of buyers is strictly prohibited.
7.2 - Any attempt to circumvent the open-market nature of the platform may result in the immediate removal of the listing and/or suspension of seller privileges.

8. Review Appeals
8.1 - Reviews may be appealed in certain circumstances only. Those made in error by the reviewer can be reported via the Admin Request System, and shall be modified accordingly.
8.2 - Requests to modify erroneous reviews of orders older than 30 days can be made, but may or may not be modified. Reviews containing inappropriate material will have the inappropriate material redacted with a notice appended that TFM Team Members have redacted material deemed to be inappropriate, or which arise from orders in which a crime has taken place can be reported via the ARS.
8.3 - Reviews related to crimes that have occurred will simply be removed from the record.
8.4 - Reviews will not be modified on any other grounds.

9. Overrides
9.1 - TFM Team Members will not override any limits, prices, or terms unless they violate these Terms and Conditions.
9.2 - Should any person notice something not acceptable either within reports, terms, listings, or reviews, they should contact Market Team Members immediately.
