PKRA.com User Agreement
The following describes the terms on which PKRA.com offers you access to our services.
Introduction
Welcome to PKRA.com. By using the services on the PKRA.com websites (PKRA.com.com and other related websites where this agreement appears) (the “Sites”), you are agreeing to the following terms, including those available by hyperlink, (the “Agreement” or “User Agreement”) with PKRA.com Inc. and the general principles for the websites of our subsidiaries. If you have any questions, please refer to the Help section on the Sites.
Before you may become a registered user of PKRA.com, you must read and accept all of the terms and conditions in, and linked to, this User Agreement and the Privacy Policy. The agreement that applies on any of our domains and subdomains is always the agreement that appears in the footer of each website.
This Agreement is effective on December 1st, 2006, for current users, and upon acceptance for new users.
Using PKRA.com
While using the Sites, you will not:
- post content or items in an inappropriate category or areas on the Sites
- violate any laws, or third party rights. As a registered PKRA.com user, you are ultimately responsible for making sure that buying or selling an item is legal in the eyes of the law.
- use the Sites if you are not able to form legally binding contracts, are under the age of 18, or are temporarily or indefinitely suspended from our Sites;
- circumvent or manipulate our fee structure, the billing process, or fees owed to PKRA.com;
- post false, inaccurate, misleading, defamatory, or libelous content (including personal information);
- distribute or post spam, chain letters, or pyramid schemes;
- distribute viruses or any other technologies that may harm PKRA.com, or the interests or property of PKRA.com users;
- copy, modify, or distribute content from the Sites and PKRA.com’s copyrights and trademarks; or
- harvest or otherwise collect information about users, including email addresses, without their consent.
Abusing PKRA.com
PKRA.com strives to keep its Sites working properly. Please report problems, offensive content, and policy violations to us.
Without limiting other remedies, we may limit, suspend, or terminate our service and user accounts, prohibit access to our website, remove hosted content, and take technical and legal steps to keep users off the Sites if we think that they are creating problems, possible legal liabilities, or acting inconsistently with the letter or spirit of our policies. We also reserve the right to cancel unconfirmed accounts.
Fees and Services
Joining PKRA.com is free. We do charge fees for using other services, such as listing items. When you list an item or use a service that has a fee you have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged based on our Fees schedule, which we may change from time to time. We may choose to temporarily change the fees for our services for promotional events or new services, and such changes are effective when we post the temporary promotional event or new service on the Sites.
Unless otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars. You are responsible for paying all fees and applicable taxes associated with the Sites in a timely manner with a valid payment method. If your payment method fails or your account is past due, we may collect fees owed using other collection mechanisms.
Content License
When you give us content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sub-licensable (through multiple tiers) right to exercise the copyright, publicity, and database rights (but no other rights) you have in the content, in any media known now or in the future. (We need these rights to host and display your content.)
Liability
You will not hold PKRA.com responsible for other users’ actions or inactions, including things they post. The Sites are a venue to allow anyone to offer, sell, and buy Karting related items. We are not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers. We have no control over and do not guarantee the quality, safety or legality of items advertised, the truth or accuracy of listings, the ability of sellers to sell items, the ability of buyers to pay for items, or that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction.
We do not transfer legal ownership of items from the seller to the buyer, and nothing in this agreement shall modify the governing provisions of Arizona State law which legal ownership of an item is transferred upon physical delivery of the item to the buyer by the seller. Further, we cannot guarantee continuous or secure access to our services, and operation of the Sites may be interfered with by numerous factors outside of our control. Accordingly, to the extent legally permitted, we exclude all implied warranties, terms and conditions. We are not liable for any loss of money, goodwill, or reputation, or any special, indirect, or consequential damages arising out of your use of our Sites. 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 paragraph, if we are found to be liable, our liability to you or to any third party is limited to the greater of (a) the total fees you paid to us in the 12 months prior to the action giving rise to the liability, and (b) $100.
Release
If you have a dispute with one or more users, you release us (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.
Access and Interference
The Sites contains robot exclusion headers. Much of the information on the Sites is updated on a real-time basis and is proprietary or is licensed to PKRA.com by our users or third parties. You agree that you will not use any robot, spider, scraper or other automated means to access the Sites for any purpose without our express written permission.
Additionally, you agree that you will not:
- take any action that imposes or may impose (in our sole discretion) an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure;
- copy, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, distribute, or publicly display any content (except for Your Information) from the Sites without the prior expressed written permission of PKRA.com and the appropriate third party, as applicable;
- interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the Sites or any activities conducted on the Sites; or
- bypass our robot exclusion headers or other measures we may use to prevent or restrict access to the Sites.
Privacy
We do not sell or rent your personal information to third parties for their marketing purposes without your explicit consent. We use your information only as described in the PKRA.com Privacy Policy. We view protection of users’ privacy as a very important community principle. We store and process your information on computers located in the United States that are protected by physical as well as technological security devices.

We use third parties to verify and certify our privacy principles. For a complete description of how we use and protect your personal information, see the PKRA.com Privacy Policy. If you object to your Information being transferred or used in this way please do not use our services.

No Agency
No agency, partnership, joint venture, employee-employer or franchiser-franchisee relationship is intended or created by this Agreement.
