Before you may become a member of  Auction Uganda, you must read and accept all of the terms and conditions in, and linked to, this User Agreement and the Privacy Policy. We strongly recommend that, as you read this User Agreement, you also access and read the linked information. This Agreement is effective on Jan 1, 2009, for current users, and upon acceptance for new users.

Rules about Feedback
Feedback is a valuable indicator of a buyers or sellers reputation on  Auction Uganda. Your Feedback Profile includes a Feedback Score, as well as comments from your transaction partners.As a member, you should use caution and good judgment when leaving Feedback for another member. What you write will be a permanent part of that members record on Auction Uganda. Feedback-related policies are designed to encourage open and honest trading. However, to ensure that Feedback is used for the proper purpose and not abused, Here are  some basic rules that must be followed. Members cannot undermine the Feedback system using practices such as:1. Feedback Extortion - Threatening to leave negative or neutral feedback for another member unless the other member provides goods or services not included in the original listing, 2. Feedback Manipulation - Feedback left or received where the Feedbacks primary value is to artificially enhance a members reputation, 3. Feedback in Seller Terms and Conditions - Sellers are not permitted to include in their listings or terms of sale any conditions that limit or restrict the buyer from leaving Feedback.
Rules for Everyone:- There are rules that all members, both buyers and sellers, need to know and follow. These rules are created to protect you and to keep Auction Uganda a safe place to buy, sell, and participate in the Community.

Rules about general member conduct.
Auction Uganda members cannot:
Interfere with the site Interference or attempted interference with the site and or operations using any software program, routine or activity is a serious offense and is not permitted. Members using the Auction Uganda site may only modify or add content in those areas specifically designated for member use. All content must also abide by all other Auction Uganda policies. Designated member areas are: 1. the description area of the View Item page. 2. the reply box on the Auction Uganda discussion, chat and help boards. 3. the members About Me page. 4. the feedback comments area of the Feedback Forum. 5. the bid box. 6. the Auction Uganda email forwarding system text box (e.g. Ask Seller a Question, Contact Auction Uganda Member). 7. In no case may a user block, obscure, overwrite or modify any  Auction Uganda-generated content or pages. All other site locations or components of Auction Uganda pages are strictly for Auction Uganda use.

Use profanity on the site:-Auction Uganda does not allow the use of profanity or patently vulgar language in a public area of the site. This includes the use of language that is racist, hateful, sexual or obscene in nature.Auction Uganda will permit media titles and descriptions (such as a CD name and track list) that contain profanity on the main site and in Adult Only. This profanity is only permitted if the original production company title or description contains the profane terms. All other profanity is prohibited. This exception applies to media items and does not apply to any other items.

Infringe on Auction Uganda intellectual property:-
Continue to use of Auction Uganda if a members account is suspended.
Make offers to buy or sell outside of Auction Uganda.
Post want ads, except in the Want It Now section of Auction Uganda.
In addition to rules that apply to all members, Auction Uganda also has rules specifically about buying and selling.

Buying Rules:- 
Auction Uganda policies help to create a safe, fair, and enjoyable trading environment for our community. As a buyer, you are responsible for reviewing and understanding Auction Uganda policies, including the Auction Uganda User Agreement. 
Buyer Guidelines:- 
As a buyer, you must: Commit to paying for the item you win in a bid or through Buy It Now. Most of the items on Auction Uganda are auction-like listings and each bid is a binding contract to buy if you win. To understand the penalties for not paying, see the Unpaid Item Policy below:- 
Buyers automatically enter into a legally binding contract to purchase the item from the seller if they win the online auction or use the Buy It Now feature. Auction Uganda Unpaid Item policy requires buyers to pay the seller for the items that they commit to purchase. Sellers can file an Unpaid Item dispute with Auction Uganda for each of their items that are purchased but not paid for.Auction Uganda will issue a strike on the account of the buyer who does not honor their obligation to pay (unless the buyer and seller mutually agree not to complete the transaction). 
Note: If a buyer gets too many strikes in too short a time period, their account will be suspended indefinitely. In some cases, limits may be placed on the buyers account in advance of suspension. Bid with serious intention to buy the item, including when placing a non-binding bid (for qualifying items such as real estate and vehicles). Non-binding bids still signify your serious intent in buying the item, and insincere bidding is not permitted. Only use the bid retraction option for qualifying circumstances (for example, you entered too many zeroes in your bid amount). 
Never use this option to manipulate the bidding process. Bid on or buy an item only when you meet the sellers buyer terms as described in the item listing. (For example, the seller might specify that the buyer must live in a certain country or use a specified payment method.) 
Only bid or buy with the intention of buying the item, never to disrupt a listing. Violation of these policies is considered unwelcome and malicious buying. 
Use Buy It Now rather than bidding if you are connected to the seller in any way, because people like the sellers family members, coworkers, friends, and roommates can have knowledge of the item not available to other bidders. Sellers cannot bid on their own item. Engaging in shill bidding to artificially increase an items price or apparent desirability violates Auction Uganda policies and is against the law in many places. Both buyers and sellers may not interfere with a transaction or offer to buy or sell listed items outside of the Auction Uganda site. Posts made in Want It Now must also comply with Auction Uganda policies.

Rules about identity:- 
Member identity is a building block of the Auction Uganda Community. Auction Uganda treats member identity with great respect. Auction Uganda expects Community members to treat member identity with the same level of respect. Members: Must be at least 18 years old, Cannot misrepresent their identities,Must always provide valid and complete contact information and must always have a valid email address. Members cannot publish the contact information of other members in an online public area. Members must choose their User ID according to Auction Uganda rules.

Rules about communicating with other Auction Uganda members:-
Members Cannot misuse the Auction Uganda email forwarding system, send unsolicited email (spam) or email threats to other members.
Must follow Auction Uganda rules for Discussion Boards, and Community Content (includes reviews, guides, and blog entries).

Seller Rules:-
Every seller must know and follow:-
Rules about Prohibited and Restricted Items, – Before you list your item, you need to find out if your item is allowed to be sold by Government Law and if the type of item is subject to certain restrictions to avoid potential issues with your listing. As an Auction Uganda seller, you are ultimately responsible for making sure that selling an item is legal in the eyes of the law. Rules about Intellectual Property – Items and listings that have the potential of violating certain copyrights, trademarks, or other rights. Intellectual property owners can report listings as part of Auction Uganda  Verified Rights Owner (VeRO) Program.

Rules for Listings:-
Listings must not misrepresent items. Except as noted in the specific policy as exceptions, sellers cannot: 1. List items in inappropriate categories. 2. Misrepresent the item location from which their item will be shipped. 3. Include brand names or other inappropriate keywords in a title or description. This is known as keyword spamming. 4. Have misleading titles that do not accurately describe the item for sale. Listings cannot use techniques to avoid or circumvent Auction Uganda fees. Except as noted in the specific policy as exceptions, sellers cannot: 1. Allow buyers a choice of significantly different items 2. List a single item but offer additional identical items for sale in the item description. 3. Include separate payment surcharges that buyers pay to use ordinary forms of payment. 4. Misuse the Reserve Price option. 5. Charge excessive shipping.
Listings must promote a fair and level playing field, and provide an enjoyable and safe experience for buyers.  Except as noted in the specific policy as exceptions, sellers cannot: 1. Solicit buyers to mail cash or use other payment methods not specifically permitted by  Auction Uganda as accepted payment methods. 2. Communicate to buyers that they accept, or will not accept, specific forms of PayPal payment. 3. Include links that do not conform to Auction Uganda Links Policy. Specific types of links that are limited include links to further descriptions, email address, photos, your About Me page, listing terms and conditions and Auction Uganda Stores. 4. Use certain types of HTML and JavaScript in item listings, Stores pages, About Me pages, or Want-It-Now ads. 5. Promote giveaways, random drawings, raffles, prizes or bonuses. 6. Create a listing that does not offer an item or service. 7. Advertise a desire to buy or trade items, except as allowed in non-binding bid categories and in Want It Now. 8. Include third-party endorsements of Auction Uganda members. 9. Include third party credits beyond what is acceptable. 10. Create test listings except in the Everything Else, Test Auctions category. 11. Use profanity in a listing, except as allowed in the Adult Only category and in media titles.

Listings that involve the following situations or types of item, must conform to limitations specified in the policy:-
Compilation and Informational Items:-
Listings that include compilations or informational content on any media must: 1. Not contain any cross category information 2. Only be listed in the Everything Else Information Products category. 3. Not be combined as a bonus item with any other listing. 4. Not contain any specific brand names or keywords unless the listing is offering the item in question. 5. Not contain excessive use of keywords to describe the contents of the compilation or informational media. 6. In addition, listings for any items that are digitally delivered must be listed in the Classified Ad format within the Everything Else Information Products category.

In addition to the above rules, here are some additional policy violations not permitted on Auction Uganda:-

Other people can see your bids, purchases, items for sale, storefronts, feedback, ratings and associated comments. Notices sent to other community members about suspicious activity and policy violations on our sites refer to User IDs and specific items.

We cannot guarantee the privacy or security of your information and therefore we encourage you to evaluate the privacy and security policies of your trading partner before entering into a transaction and choosing to share your information. To help protect your privacy, we allow only limited access to other users contact, shipping and financial information to facilitate your transactions. When users are involved in a transaction, they may have access to each others name, User ID, email address and other contact and shipping information. In all cases, you must give other users a chance to remove themselves from your database and a chance to review what information you have collected about them. You agree to use user information only for:-
1. Auction Uganda transaction-related purposes that are not unsolicited commercial messages. 
2. using services offered through Auction Uganda (e.g. escrow, insurance, shipping and fraud complaints), or 
3. other purposes that a user expressly chooses.

No Spam, Spyware or Spoofing:-
We and our users do not tolerate spam. Make sure to set your Auction Uganda notification preferences so we communicate to you as you prefer. You are not licensed to add other Auction Uganda  users, even a user who has purchased an item from you, to your mailing list (email or physical mail) without their express consent. You may not use our communication tools to send spam or otherwise send content that would violate our User Agreement.

You must promptly update your personal information if it changes or is inaccurate. Once you make a public posting, you may not be able to change or remove it. Upon your request, we will close your account and remove your personal information from view as soon as reasonably possible, based on your account activity and in accordance with applicable law.

Security:-
Your information is stored on our servers located in the United States. We treat data as an asset that must be protected and use lots of tools (encryption, passwords, physical security, etc.) to protect your personal information against unauthorized access and disclosure. However, as you probably know, third parties may unlawfully intercept or access transmissions or private communications, and other users may abuse or misuse your personal information that they collect from the site. Therefore, although we work very hard to protect your privacy, we do not promise, and you should not expect, that your personal information or private communications will always remain private.

Third Parties:-
Except as otherwise expressly included in this Privacy Policy, this document addresses only the use and disclosure of information we collect from you. If you disclose your information to others, whether they are bidders, buyers or sellers on our sites or other sites throughout the internet, different rules may apply to their use or disclosure of the information you disclose to them. Auction Uganda does not control the privacy policies of third parties, and you are subject to the privacy policies of those third parties where applicable. We encourage you to ask questions before you disclose your personal information to others.

General:-
We may amend this Privacy Policy at any time by posting the amended terms on this site. All amended terms automatically take effect 30 days after they are initially posted on the site. In addition, we will notify you through the  Message Center. If your questions are not answered online, you may write to us at: Konstaz.com, Proosdijerveldweg 151, 6714AC Ede The Netherlands or using the Contact Us form.
