We are the sole owner of all intellectual property relating to the Site and the Services, and you are strictly prohibited from copying, downloading, transferring, mimicking, or duplicating in any form, the information, ideas, images, designs, graphics, concepts, or HTML codes displayed or utilized on the Site or Services. All data entered into, and generated by, the Site or Services will remain the sole property of the authorized user, however, we have the right to use all data entered into the Site or Services at our sole discretion. No ownership rights or any other rights are transferred by this Agreement, other than the right to use the Site and Services as provided herein;
b. Violations to Aucto's system or network security are prohibited and can result in criminal and civil liability. Continuous attempts to infiltrate or damage Aucto's network security and/or systems may be treated as violations. Aucto will investigate incidents involving such violations and will cooperate with law enforcement if a criminal violation is suspected;
c. As a Seller, you are ultimately responsible for the legality of any item you offer for sale on Aucto and the listing describing that item. If your item or listing violates these Terms and Conditions or is reported to Aucto by an intellectual property rights owner as violating its rights, the listing may be removed from Aucto;

IX. Disclaimers.

Aucto hosts auctions, liquidations, and listing of items for sale, but the actual contract for sale of an item is between the buyer and seller, and not Aucto. Aucto is not an auction house and is not conducting the auctions or liquidations. We are solely a passive facilitator that connects auctioneers, sellers, and buyers, and we have no affiliation with or control over auctioneers or sellers or over their operations of the actual auctions, liquidations, or listings. Aucto does not provide dispute resolution; any dispute arising between a buyer and seller is solely between such buyer and seller. Aucto is not responsible for the content or accuracy of any auctioneers' or sellers' postings. Aucto does not review or evaluate the quality or origins of the items sold or verify the claims made by each seller regarding its items listed for sale. We also do not guarantee that auctioneers maintain proper auctioneers' licenses or comply with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations. Aucto does not guarantee results for auctioneers, sellers, or buyers, and Aucto is not responsible for any real or perceived loss in revenue or profits.

While Aucto may use any information you input into the Site to market equipment to potential buyers, Aucto does not guarantee that it will engage in specific marketing efforts for Sellers or Auctioneers. Aucto's marketing efforts are determined in its sole discretion.

YOUR USE OF AUCTO IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK. THE WEBSITE AND ALL STATEMENTS CONTAINED IN IT ARE PRESENTED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT. CERTAIN STATE LAWS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS, EXCLUSIONS, OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MIGHT HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.

Aucto does not guarantee the accuracy of the Services or content on the Website. The materials appearing on the Website could include technical, typographical, or photographic errors. Aucto uses reasonable efforts to include up-to-date and accurate information on the Website, but makes no representations, warranties, or assurances as to the accuracy, currency, or completeness of the information provided. Aucto does not guarantee continuous or secure access to the Website. Aucto does not guarantee that any item listed for sale on Aucto will be searchable. Aucto may delete any content that violates its policies, in Aucto's sole discretion and without notice to you.

X. Release, Indemnification, and Limitation of Liability.

You hereby release Aucto, and its and directors, officers, employees, and agents, from any liability, including negligence, in connection with the Site and any related services, and from any loss or expense suffered by you resulting directly or indirectly therefrom including, but not limited to, loss of money, goodwill or reputation, profits, other intangible losses. In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable, and you agree not to hold us responsible, for any damages or losses of any kind whatsoever resulting directly or indirectly from:

Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of warranties or exclusion of damages, so such disclaimers and exclusions may not apply to you.

Regardless of the previous paragraphs, if we are found to be liable, our liability to you is limited to the greater of (a) the amount of fees in dispute not to exceed the total fees which you paid to us in the 6 months prior to the action giving rise to the liability; or (b) $100.
