6.         Free and Paid Services
 
CCN will not charge you for creating a user account or for visiting public areas of the CCN Website. Also, CCN does not charge any fee for receiving and distributing charitable donations as part of the CCN Website Services. However, CCN does charge fees for the CCN Website Services, such as when the CCN Website is used for purchasing or delivering an item. CCN reserves the right to update its fees from time to time. 
 
You acknowledge and agree that CCN may require pre-authorization of a funds transfer or pre-payment of funds to be held by CCN for the purpose of facilitating completion of a transaction between an individual user who posts an item for sale on the CCN Website (the “Seller”) and a user who places a bid to purchase the item (the “Buyer”). Currency exchange rates may fluctuate, and the amount of a funds transfer may exceed the pre-authorized amount for that funds transfer by up to 5%.
 
You are responsible for reviewing, understanding and accepting all fees or charges and all pre-authorization, pre-payment and donation requirements for all CCN Website Services BEFORE clicking on final acceptance for those CCN Website Services. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO ACCEPT A CHARGE, MAKE A DONATION, OR COMPLY WITH A PRE-AUTHORIZATION OR PRE-PAYMENT REQUIREMENT FOR A CCN WEBSITE SERVICE, THEN PLEASE CANCEL OR CHANGE YOUR SELECTIONS BEFORE CLICKING ON FINAL ACCEPTANCE OF THE SERVICE.
 
For a Buyer to make a bid to purchase an item, CCN ordinarily requests from the Buyer credit card authorization for pre-payment of the costs expected to be incurred by the Buyer for purchasing the item if Seller accepts the Buyer’s bid. For a Seller to accept an offer from a Buyer to purchase an item, CCN ordinarily requests from the Seller credit card pre-authorization for pre-payment of return shipping to be used if the item is later return shipped through the CCN Website Services. 
 
You acknowledge and agree that, for each transaction in which CCN has requested a pre-payment from a Buyer, CCN waits until said pre-payment has been received by CCN before arranging shipment from Seller to Buyer of the items of that transaction. CCN has no obligation to archive or retain unaccepted or expired bids, and may delete said unaccepted or expired bids from the CCN Website without notice.
 
You agree to pay all fees, including applicable taxes, associated with a CCN Website Service invoked under your account in a timely manner with a valid payment method. CCN reserves the right to use any lawful collection method to collect overdue amounts, including collecting by any payment method associated with your account. You acknowledge CCN HAS A NO-REFUND POLICY FOR THE FEES CHARGED BY CCN and agree that CCN has no obligation to refund any fees owed to CCN.
The Buyer and Seller are responsible for any applicable taxes or other (e.g import taxes, customs, duties, use taxes or personal transfer taxes etc.) that may be levied personally as a result of these transactions.  CCN pays out funds held for the seller, 21 days after the funds have been settled and the transaction accepted by the buyer.
 
7.         Buyer and Seller Dispute Resolution
 
During a 24-hour waiting period after CCN receives reasonable confirmation of delivery of an item from a Seller to a Buyer (see section 6 above for definitions), the CCN Website will normally permit the Buyer to give notice to CCN of a dispute with the Seller in respect of the item (the “Buyer-Seller Dispute”). If technical problems with the CCN Website prevent a Buyer from giving notice of a Buyer-Seller Dispute during the 24-hour waiting period, CCN may in its sole discretion decide to act on notice of the Buyer-Seller Dispute delivered to CCN by reasonable alternative methods. CCN may demand proof from Buyer of said notice having been dispatched for delivery during the 24-hour waiting period, without which CCN will not act on said notice. You are solely responsible for and CCN accepts no liability for the performance or availability of the internet connection or Internet Service Provider (ISP) you use to connect with the CCN Website.
 
Following proper notice of a Buyer-Seller Dispute, CCN will endeavor to provide messaging services between Buyer and Seller to facilitate resolution by the Buyer and Seller of the Buyer-Seller Dispute. You grant to CCN all rights required to examine, copy, distribute or publish contents of said messages and waive all privacy rights thereto.
 
During a Buyer-Seller Dispute, you agree that CCN may decide in its sole discretion to receive from you any funds that were pre-authorized prior to CCN receiving notice of the Buyer-Seller Dispute, and may in its sole discretion hold any funds received from you. You agree that a Buyer-Seller Dispute does not in any way affect CCN’s right to collect fees from you.
 
During a Buyer-Seller Dispute, CCN will act on WRITTEN INSTRUCTIONS SIGNED BY BOTH BUYER AND SELLER, WHERE BOTH SIGNATURE ARE WITNESSED on the written form of the instructions, regarding disposition of any funds held by CCN on your behalf, provided CCN has not been served by an order of a court of competent jurisdiction prohibiting CCN from acting on said instructions. CCN has no responsibility or liability for acting on fraudulent or misleading instructions received by CCN.
 
IF THREE (3) YEARS AFTER PROPER NOTICE OF A BUYER-SELLER DISPUTE, CCN STILL HOLDS FUNDS ON YOUR BEHALF, YOU AGREE THAT CCN MAY IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION, EXCEPT WHERE CCN HAS BEEN SERVED BY AN ORDER OF A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION PROHIBITING CCN FROM DOING SO, PAY SAID FUNDS TO A CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION OF CCN’S CHOOSING AND WITH NO LIABILITY TO YOU FOR SAID FUNDS.
 
You agree that CCN has no obligation except as may be provided herein to intervene or become involved in any dispute between you as Buyer or Seller and another user or users, and no obligation to determine or bring proceedings to determine the disposition of funds held by CCN on your behalf as Buyer or Seller. Nothing in this User Agreement limits your right as Buyer or Seller to seek resolution of any dispute between you and another user or users in any court of law or to employ any lawful arbitration or other dispute resolution service or method.
 
8. Retail Sellers
 

You acknowledge and agree that retail sellers may advertise their products for sale on the CCN website, but not conduct transactions. Individuals members wishing to purchase an item listed for sale by a retail seller must contact that retailer directly and conclude the transaction outside of the CCN website.  CCN is not responsible for and will not conduct sales between retail sellers and individual members.

 
9. Event and Other Management
 

Event and other organizers may use the CCN site for event management, including rider registrations, license applications and charitable auctions.  CCN will not charge an organizer for creating an event account or for visiting the account.   CCN charges for CCN Website Services, such as when a rider registers for an event or wishes to apply for a license.  CCN will charge a Transaction Management Charge ('TMC©") for this as well as applicable taxes.  The TMC© covers processing costs, including payment transaction charges incurred.

You acknowledge and agree that CCN may charge the TMC© in connection with registration and license applications.  You the Organizer/promoter  are responsible for reviewing, understanding and accepting all charges listed in the CCN registration fee schedule (Fees)(CCN registration fee schedule is subject to change without notice)  for all CCN Website Services BEFORE clicking on final acceptance for those CCN Website Services.   You agree to pay all charges, including applicable taxes, associated with a CCN Website Service incurred under your account. Charges will be deducted from the registration revenues collected on your behalf.  CCN reserves the right to use any lawful collection method to collect overdue amounts, including collecting by any payment method associated with your account.  CCN does not authorize refunds; it is your responsibility to reimburse or refund a registrant if you choose. You acknowledge THAT CCN HAS A NO-REFUND POLICY FOR CCN CHARGES and agree that CCN has no obligation to refund any charges.  To protect against unlawful activity such as fraudulent events, CCN reserves the right to reserve payout of funds received until after the actual advertised event has occured.  CCN pays out event and related funds processed, 21 days after the funds have been settled.

10. Release
