IN PARTICULAR, IT CONTAINS AN ARBITRATION AGREEMENT WHICH WILL, WITH LIMITED EXCEPTIONS, REQUIRE YOU TO SUBMIT CLAIMS THAT YOU HAVE AGAINST REIBUS TO BINDING AND FINAL ARBITRATION. UNLESS YOU OPT OUT OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IN SECTION 18 OF THESE TERMS: (i) YOU WILL ONLY BE PERMITTED TO PURSUE CLAIMS AND SEEK RELIEF AGAINST REIBUS ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING; AND (ii) YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO SEEK RELIEF IN A COURT OF LAW AND TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL ON YOUR CLAIMS.

2. Changes to these Terms of Use.

By accessing our Services, you acknowledge that we have the right to revise and amend these Terms of Use without prior notice. Your continued use of the Services following our posting of any such changes will mean that you accept such changes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, We may notify you at the email address provided to us or by a posting in the Mobile Application or Website in the event that we make any material changes to these Terms of Use, and you may have to agree to or reject the updated Terms of Use at that time, in order to continue using the Services.

3. About Reibus and How the Services Work.

Reibus’ Services provide a dynamic, independent, and anonymous online platform for the purchase and sale of industrial material. Reibus is strictly a business-to-business platform operating as a reseller. Sellers interested in increasing sales or finding the highest, best use for excess, obsolete, or secondary material sign up through the website or contact us to receive an onboarding kit. Sellers complete the onboarding kit to provide key relevant information such as what material they wish to sell, the price they would like to receive, and the location and condition of the material. Reibus then lists the material on our Services and uses our marketing program and experienced sales team to find a buyer, at which point Reibus purchases the material from the seller and sells it to the buyer. Buyers and sellers using the Services remain anonymous to each other throughout the process, allowing them to take advantage of the power of the Services without fear of channel conflict or of disclosing sensitive inventory information to competitors. Reibus charges a very small listing fee to defray operating costs and generally makes its money by utilizing the reach of the Services and the experience of its sales team to find buyers willing to pay more than the seller’s asking price. Buyers using the Services can buy with confidence knowing that Reibus stands behind the material for sale on the site. In turn, sellers on the site are responsible to Reibus to provide quality material and remedy any defects. To preserve anonymity and provide a simple, one-stop solution, Reibus arranges transportation of the material where necessary.

4. The Services are For Use by Individuals 18 Years of Age and Older.

The Services are intended solely to be accessed by natural persons who are eighteen (18) years of age or older, and any registration by, use of, or access to the Services by any person under 18 is unauthorized and in violation of these Terms of Use. We may terminate your use of the Services without notice if we believe you are less than 18 years old. By using the Services, you represent and warrant that, you are a natural person, you are 18 or older, and that you agree to and will abide by all of the terms and conditions of these Terms of Use.

5. Purchases Made Through the Services.

By accepting this Terms of Use, you agree to pay all applicable fees due for purchases you make on or through the Services. Please note that all fees due and/or purchases made through the Services are non-refundable. You acknowledge and agree that under no circumstances will you be remitted a refund or otherwise provided any kind of credit or reimbursement of fees, except where otherwise prohibited by applicable law.

Additionally, buyers are responsible for paying all invoices promptly. Unless otherwise specified, all sales made through the Services are cash in advance. Buyers who sign up for commercial credit through the Services agree to separate terms and conditions and acknowledge that credit may be provided by a third party.

6. Services Use Restrictions.

Without our prior written consent, you may not:

Use any automated means to access this Services or collect any information from the Services (including, without limitation, robots, spiders, scripts, or other automatic devices or programs);

7. Marketplace.

You understand and acknowledge that as a part of the Services, Reibus makes available the Marketplace, whereby sellers and buyers can sell and purchase various materials and offerings. Accordingly, there are certain terms specific to Marketplace that you need to be aware of, as further described below.

(a) Seller Responsibilities.

Sellers utilizing the Services are responsible for the following:

Payment of any applicable seller subscription fees on a timely basis;
Compliance with all laws;

Timely and accurately providing Reibus relevant information on material pickup limitations (pickup hours, appointment requirements, etc.);
Promptly and professionally working with Reibus to resolve any disputes related to any defect in material sold; and
Completing the sale of any bid/auction material for which you have accepted a bid. If you fail to complete any such sale other than as a result of some failure on behalf of Reibus, you agree to reimburse Reibus all costs and expenses incurred as a result thereof, including reasonable attorneys’ fees.

(b) Buyer Responsibilities.

Buyers utilizing the Services are responsible for the following:

Prompt payment of invoices;
Providing accurate information for delivery and accepting delivery of purchased material.

Completing the purchase of any bid/auction material for which you have submitted a bid that was accepted by the seller. If you fail to complete any such purchase, other than as a result in some defect in the material or failure on behalf of Reibus, you agree to reimburse Reibus all costs and expenses incurred as a result thereof, including reasonable attorney’s fees.
Keeping Marketplace offering preferences up-to-date so that your designated customer service representative (each a “CSR” and collectively, “CSRs”) can rely on information selected by buyer for purchase-related decision, as further described below.

(c) Marketplace and CSRs. As part of the Marketplace feature, Reibus may connect users with a designated CSR who will assist Marketplace participants with purchases and/or sales, monitor Marketplace listings for potential available offerings based on a participant’s preferences and otherwise assisting with transactions through the Marketplace. Accordingly, where you use the Marketplace as a buyer, you hereby authorize Reibus and any assigned CSR to make purchases on your behalf through the Marketplace, based upon your offerings and preferences within Marketplace. Where you use the Marketplace as a seller, you hereby authorize Reibus and any assigned CSR to present offerings for sale through the Marketplace, based upon your offerings and preferences within the Marketplace. You shall be liable and responsible to the transaction counterparty, which may be Reibus, for any transaction made on your behalf by an assigned CSR. If you fail to complete any purchase or sale, whether initiated by you or an assigned CSR, you will remain liable and responsible for all fees associated with such transaction. Regardless of whether you are acting as a buyer or a seller, you will promptly take such steps as may be necessary to effectuate the agreed transaction, including remitting payment to the applicable seller or transferring offerings to the applicable buyer, either of which may be Reibus. You will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Reibus from and against any and all losses, damages, claims and other liabilities resulting from or arising out of your failure to complete any transaction initiated through Marketplace.

8. User Representations.

Parts of the Services may be accessed only by registering for an account and creating a password. Keep your password secure. You are responsible for the activities on your account. You represent, warrant, and agree that no materials of any kind submitted through your account or otherwise posted or shared by you through the Services will violate or infringe upon the rights of any third party, including without limitation any copyright, trademark, patent, privacy, publicity, or other personal or intellectual property rights; or contain libelous, defamatory, or otherwise unlawful material.

As between us and you, all content made available on or through the Services, whether uploaded, published, or displayed by us, including designs, text, graphics, pictures, video, information, software, music, sound and other files, and their selection and arrangement, except as provided in Section 12 (App Store) is the property of Reibus (collectively the “Reibus Content”). To the best of our knowledge, we use only content that we own or have permission to use. No Reibus Content may be modified, copied, distributed, framed, reproduced, republished, downloaded, displayed, posted, transmitted, or sold in any form or by any means, in whole or in part, without the owner’s prior written permission. Unless explicitly stated herein, nothing in these Terms of Use shall be construed as conferring any license to intellectual property rights, whether by estoppel, implication, or otherwise.

The Services may provide access to payment processing that is hosted and provided by third party service providers. As made available to you, third party service providers have additional terms and conditions that are different than these terms. To the extent not restricted by law or applicable agreements with third parties, Reibus is not responsible or liable for any third party acts or omissions or services they may provide you.

The Services may contain links to third-party websites and services, and/or display advertisements for third parties (collectively, “Third-Party Links & Ads”). Where the Services contain links to Third-Party Links & Ads, these links are provided for your information and convenience only. We have no control over the contents of those sites or resources. Reibus does not review, approve, endorse or make any promises with respect to Third-Party Links & Ads. You use all Third-Party Links & Ads at your own risk, and should apply a suitable level of caution and discretion in doing so. When you click on any of the Third-Party Links & Ads, the applicable third party’s terms and policies apply, not these Terms of Use.

Accordingly, we are not responsible for the practices employed by third-party websites or services linked to or from our Services, including the information or content contained in such third-party websites or services, and these Terms of Use do not apply to them. Privacy notices on such linked websites may be different from our Privacy Policy.

12. Mobile App; App Store.

If you have elected to download our App, we hereby grant you a limited, non-transferable, revocable license to use the object code of such software within the App on any mobile device that you own or control that such App is authorized to be operated on (as determined by us in our sole discretion) and is permitted by this Section 12. The App is licensed, not sold, to you for use only under the terms of this Terms of Use. Reibus reserves all rights, title and interest not expressly granted to you. Nothing herein allows you to use the App on a device that you do not own or are not authorized to control.

Furthermore, with respect to any App accessed through or downloaded from an App Store such as Google Play® store or the Apple’s® App Store® (an “App Store Sourced Application”), you will only use the App Store Sourced Application: (1) on a product that runs the operating system for which it was intended and (2) as permitted by the “Usage Rules” set forth in the corresponding App Store. Use of the App from a third party App Store is also subject to the provisions of this Section 12 (App Store). You acknowledge that these Terms of Use are between you and us and not with the owner or operator of the App Store Sourced Application (“App Store Owner”). As between the App Store Owner and us, we, and not the App Store Owner, are solely responsible for the Services, including the App, the content, maintenance, support services, and warranty, and addressing any claims relating thereto (e.g., product liability, legal compliance or intellectual property infringement). In order to use the App, you must have access to a wireless or cellular network, and you agree to pay all fees associated with such access. You also agree to pay all fees (if any) charged by the App Store Owner in connection with the Services, including the App. The following applies to any App Store Sourced Application:

Your use of the App Store Sourced Application must comply with the App Store’s “Terms of Service” or equivalent terms.

You acknowledge that the App Store Owner has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the App Store Sourced Application.

In the event of any failure of the App Store Sourced Application to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify the App Store Owner, and the App Store Owner will refund the purchase price for the App Store Sourced Application to you (if any) and to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the App Store Owner will have no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the App Store Sourced Application. As between Reibus and the App Store Owner, any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty will be the sole responsibility of Reibus.

You and we acknowledge that, as between Reibus and the App Store Owner, the App Store Owner is not responsible for addressing any claims you have or any claims of any third party relating to the App Store Sourced Application or your possession and use of the App Store Sourced Application, including, but not limited to: (1) product liability claims; (2) any claim that the App Store Sourced Application fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (3) claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation.

You and we acknowledge that, in the event of any third-party claim that the App Store Sourced Application or your possession and use of that App Store Sourced Application infringes that third party’s intellectual property rights, as between Reibus and the App Store Owner, Reibus, not the App Store Owner, will be solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any such intellectual property infringement claim to the extent required by these Terms of Use.

You and we acknowledge and agree that the App Store Owner, and the App Store Owner’s subsidiaries, are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms of Use as related to your license of the App Store Sourced Application, and that, upon your acceptance of these Terms of Use, the App Store Owner will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce the terms of these Terms of Use as related to your license of the App Store Sourced Application against you as a third-party beneficiary thereof.

You represent and warrant that (1) you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist supporting” country; and (2) you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

Without limiting any other terms in these Terms of Use, you must comply with all applicable third-party terms of agreement when using the App Store Sourced Application.

13. Notice to California Residents. Under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 N.

14. Disclaimers.

We reserve the right to change any and all content within the Services and any service offered through the Services at any time without notice.

We provide the Services “AS IS” and assume no responsibility for any failure to provide the Services to you. The Services may be temporarily unavailable from time to time for maintenance or other reasons. We may discontinue the Services or any goods or services available through the Services at any time and for any reason. We are not responsible for any problems or technical malfunction of any telephone or cable network or lines, servers or providers, computer equipment, software, failure of email, or technical problems or traffic congestion on the Internet or on or through the Services, including injury or damage to Users or to any other person’s devices related to or resulting from use of the Services.

YOU AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK, and that we EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, TERMS AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES, TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS AND SATISFACTORY QUALITY.

15. Limitation of Certain Damage Types.

EXCEPT IN JURISDICTIONS WHERE SUCH PROVISIONS ARE RESTRICTED OR PROHIBITED, IN NO EVENT WILL REIBUS OR ANY OF ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING FOR ANY LOST PROFITS OR LOST DATA ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES OR ANY OF CONTENT OR OTHER MATERIALS ON OR ACCESSED THROUGH THE SERVICES, EVEN IF ANY OF US IS AWARE OF OR HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

16. Limitation of Liability Amount.

TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, OUR LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER, AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE ACTION, WILL AT ALL TIMES BE LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO US FOR THE SERVICES OR PRODUCT AT ISSUE IN THE THREE MONTHS PRIOR TO THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM AND $20. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT IF NO FEES ARE PAID TO US FOR A SERVICE OR PRODUCT, YOU SHALL BE LIMITED TO, AT MOST, INJUNCTIVE RELIEF ONLY, UNLESS OTHERWISE PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AND SHALL NOT BE ENTITLED TO ANY OTHER DAMAGES, REGARDLESS OF THE CAUSE OF ACTION.

NOTHING IN THESE TERMS SHALL LIMIT OR EXCLUDE OUR LIABILITY FOR: (i) DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULTING FROM OUR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT; (ii) FRAUD OR FRAUDULENT MISREPRESENTATIONS; OR (iii) ANY OTHER LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED BY APPLICABLE LAW.

17. Disputes, Governing Law, Venue, and Jurisdiction.

By using the Services, you agree that these Terms of Use shall be governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

For any cause of action initiated against Reibus relating to these Terms of Use, you and Reibus agree to submit to the exclusive and personal jurisdiction of the courts located in the State of Georgia.

Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. If any provision of these Terms of Use is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, then we nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the intentions reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Use shall remain in full force and effect. The language of these Terms of Use shall be construed as to its fair meaning and not strictly for or against any party.

18. Arbitration Agreement & Dispute Resolution

Please read this Arbitration Agreement carefully. It is part of your contract with Reibus and affects your rights. It contains procedures for MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION AND A CLASS ACTION WAIVER.

Scope of Arbitration Agreement (“Arbitration Agreement”). You acknowledge and agree that any dispute or claim relating in any way to your access or use of the Services or to any other aspect of your relationship with Reibus will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that (1) you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify, so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis; and (2) you or Reibus may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all claims that arose before this or any prior agreement. NOW OR IN THE FUTURE, THERE MAY BE LAWSUITS AGAINST Reibus ALLEGING CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIMS. SUCH CLAIMS, IF SUCCESSFUL, COULD RESULT IN SOME MONETARY RECOVERY TO YOU. THE EXISTENCE OF SUCH CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE LAWSUITS DOES NOT MEAN THAT SUCH LAWSUITS WILL ULTIMATELY SUCCEED. BUT IF YOU AGREE TO ARBITRATION WITH Reibus, YOU ARE AGREEING IN ADVANCE THAT YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN OR SEEK TO RECOVERY MONETARY OR OTHER RELIEF UNDER SUCH CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE LAWSUITS. INSTEAD, BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU MAY BRING YOUR CLAIMS AGAINST Reibus IN AN INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. IF SUCCESSFUL ON SUCH CLAIMS, YOU COULD BE AWARDED MONEY OR OTHER RELIEF BY AN ARBITRATOR.

Arbitration Rules and Forum. This Arbitration Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act in all respects. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claim to our registered agent: The Corporation Trust Company, Corporation Trust Center, 1209 Orange St., Wilmington, DE 19801. The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under its rules, including the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes. The AAA’s rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitration fees will be governed by the AAA’s rules. We will reimburse those fees for claims totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. Likewise, Reibus will not seek attorneys’ fees and costs in arbitration unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous. If the AAA is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum.

Arbitrator Powers. The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Reibus. The dispute will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim or dispute. The arbitrator will have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and these Terms of Use. The arbitrator will issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding on you and Reibus.

Waiver of Jury Trial. YOU AND Reibus EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND RECEIVE A JUDGE OR JURY TRIAL. You and Reibus are instead electing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow these Terms of Use as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. In any litigation between you and Reibus over whether to vacate or enforce an arbitration award, you and Reibus waive all rights to a jury trial, and elect instead to have a judge resolve the dispute.

Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS BASIS. CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If, however, this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable, neither you nor Reibus is entitled to arbitration. Instead, all claims and disputes will then be resolved in a court as set forth in Section 18 (Disputes, Governing Law, Venue and Jurisdiction) above.

Opt Out. You may opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you do so, neither you nor Reibus can force the other to arbitrate. To opt out, you must notify Reibus in writing no later than 30 days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, your Reibus username (if any), the email address you used to set up your Reibus account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. You must send your opt-out notice to: legal@reibus.com. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of these Terms of Use will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any previous, other, or future arbitration agreements that you may have with us.

Exclusive Venue. To the extent the parties are permitted under these Terms of Use to initiate litigation in a court, both you and Reibus agree that all claims and disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use will be litigated exclusively in the applicable state or federal courts located in the State of Georgia.

19. Limitation on Time to File Claims.

YOU AGREE TO BRING ANY CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM YOU MAY HAVE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS WEBSITE OR ITS TERMS OF USE WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE CAUSE OF ACTION OR CLAIM ACCRUES. CLAIMS OR CAUSES OF ACTION NOT BROUGHT WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR OF ACCRUAL WILL BE PERMANENTLY BARRED.

20. Indemnity.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold us, our subsidiaries and affiliates, and each of their directors, officers, agents, contractors, partners, and employees, harmless from and against any loss, liability, claim, demand, damages, costs (including attorneys’ fees), and expenses, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Services, including without limitation the Marketplace specifically and any transactions made or authorized therein, and/or any violation of these Terms of Use.

PLEASE PRINT A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT FOR YOUR RECORDS AND PLEASE CHECK BACK FREQUENTLY FOR ANY CHANGES TO THIS AGREEMENT.

21. No Agency.

Nothing herein shall be construed as creating any partnership, employment, agency or joint venture relationship between the parties with respect to the subject matter set forth herein.

22. Survival.

The following Sections survive the termination of these Terms of Use: 4 through 22.

Refunds, returns, and cancelled orders. Terms of Use
