Introduction
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
Communication
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. DMs sent to Department of Trade personnel regarding listings of other people will not be responded to due to lack of time. 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.
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, the Department reserves the right to discipline the offending accounts. Users should report any such situations to the Director of Trade directly or through the Administrative request system, and the Department will make a judgement as to the extent(if any), of the breach.
Updates
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.
Access
The Trade Federation Market is open to all sentients not currently blacklisted by the Trade Federation. All other sentients are welcome to partake and enjoy all the aspects that the site includes.
Accounts that attempt or successfully scam another account will be dealt with based on an investigation by the Federation Security Service and a ruling by the Trade Federation Commerce Tribunal. Any such situations should be reported to the Director of Trade directly with any supporting evidence. Based on the investigation result, a scam tag or permanent ban may result. In addition, any abuse of the Trade Federation Market system will result in temporary or permanent ban by the Director of Trade. Appeals shall be handled by the Minister of Production directly.
Customer and Seller Responsibilities
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. TFM will not accept returns, modifications, refunds, or cancellations of any orders.
Overrides
Department of Trade Staff will not override any limits, prices, or terms unless they violate these Terms and Conditions. Should any person notice something not acceptable either within reports, terms, listings, or reviews, they should contact Trade Federation staff immediately. A small reward in the form of market points may be applicable. |
