PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING USER AGREEMENT (INCLUDING THE LEGAL DISCLAIMER, LIABILITY LIMITATIONS AND OTHER PROVISIONS BELOW) CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THIS WEB SITE OR USING OUR OTHER SERVICES. This User Agreement is made between you and Best Buyers UK ("BestBuyers", "we" or "us"). You can find out more information about Best Buyers UK in the "About BestBuyers" section of the BestBuyers Web site ("our Web site"). By using the BestBuyers Web site or our other services, you agree to the terms of this User Agreement. If you do not agree to the terms of this User Agreement, you may not use our Web site or other services. We reserve the right, at any time, to modify, alter, or update this User Agreement, and you agree to be bound by such modifications, alterations, or updates once they are posted on our Web site.

1. Significance of Ratings

"Customer Certified" ratings reflect the aggregated responses of actual customers--typically many thousands of consumers--surveyed at the point-of-sale for each online merchant. As such, these ratings are informative for those wishing to use them, but they do not guarantee any level of performance by an online merchant or other third party in any given transaction.

All other ratings reflect the aggregated responses of hundreds or thousands of actual consumers who are members of our Online Research Panel of actual online buyers. Again, as such, these ratings are informative for those wishing to use them, but they do not guarantee any level of performance by an online merchant or other third party in any given transaction.

Participating merchants and other third parties may pay us to be presented on our site or to have their product or service offerings featured in our search results, and may also purchase research from us, but in no event does any such payment affect the merchant rating given to any merchant by participating online shoppers.

Users agree not to take any actions for the purpose of manipulating or distorting, or that may undermine the integrity and accuracy of, the merchant ratings.

2. Consumer Reviews

The consumer reviews on our site are comments received from actual customers--typically many thousands of consumers--surveyed at the point-of-sale for each online merchant, as well as customers who have elected to post a review on our site. As such, these reviews are informative for those wishing to use them, but they do not guarantee any level of performance by an online merchant or other third party in any given transaction.

Participating merchants and other third parties may pay us to be presented on our site or to have their product or service offerings featured in our search results, and may also purchase research from us, but in no event does any such payment affect the reviews given to any merchant by participating online shoppers.

Users agree not to take any actions for the purpose of manipulating or distorting, or that may undermine the integrity and accuracy of, the merchant reviews. Furthermore, users agree not to post any review that is false or that contains profanity, personal attacks upon individuals, ethnic slurs, personal information such as credit card numbers, material that violates another's legal rights, or other offensive or inappropriate content for a general shopping audience. By posting a review, the poster thereby represents that the review is based upon an actual online shopping experience with the merchant being reviewed and irrevocably assigns all copyright and other intellectual property rights in the review to BestBuyers. BestBuyers may publish the review on its Web site or elsewhere in its discretion and reserves the right to remove or alter the content of any review deemed offensive or in violation of its policies, and all decisions by BestBuyers in this regard are final.

3. Legal Disclaimer

BestBuyers shall not be held responsible or liable for any actions taken, either wholly or in part, based on the information provided on Best Buyers Web site, or for any loss, damage, expense or injury resulting from any transactions conducted with any online merchant or other third party listed on Best Buyers Web site. The information, services, products, and materials contained in this Web site or available through our other services, including, without limitation, all text, graphics, and links, are provided on an "AS IS" basis.

In addition, since BestBuyers cannot verify all information provided by online merchants and other third parties, and errors in gathering or reporting such information may occur due to the large volume of merchants with many different products and services, BestBuyers does not represent or warrant that the information accessible via our Web site or other services is always accurate, complete or current, and shall not be liable for or responsible to honour (or to cause any merchant to honour) any erroneous information regarding the price, description and availability of, or any discounts, offers, promotions and coupons relating to, any product or service offerings available on our Web site or through our other services. Furthermore, due to the dynamic nature of online shopping, all information regarding such matters is subject to change without notice.

4. Liability Limitations

In no event shall BestBuyers or its affiliates or agents (the "BestBuyers Parties") be liable, whether in an action under contract, negligence, or any other theory, arising out of or in connection with the use, inability to use, or performance of the information, services, products, and materials available from this Web site or through our other services, in an amount greater than the lower of (i) the price of the merchandise or service involved in the transaction or proposed transaction as to which one or more BestBuyers Parties is held to be negligent or otherwise responsible, or (ii) if no such merchandise or service is involved, or if the value thereof would exceed $100, then a maximum liability limitation of $100 in the aggregate. You and we agree that this is a fair allocation of risk based upon the manner and cost by which BestBuyers' services are provided to you, and taking into account your ability to take other measures or consult other resources in connection with purchasing goods and services online. FURTHERMORE, IN NO EVENT SHALL BestBuyers OR ITS AFFILIATES OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INCIDENTAL, EXEMPLARY OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, even if we have been previously advised of the possibility of such damages. These limitations shall apply notwithstanding to any failure of essential purpose of any limited remedy.
