Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of These Terms

By creating an account, clicking an acceptance button or checkbox, purchasing a subscription, accessing any restricted feature, or otherwise using the Services after these Terms are presented to you, you affirmatively agree to these Terms and acknowledge receipt of the Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Services.

If you use the Services on behalf of a company or other entity, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that entity, and "you" includes both you and that entity.

ColLock may require renewed affirmative acceptance of materially revised Terms. The version accepted by you, together with ColLock's electronic acceptance records, will govern unless applicable law requires otherwise.

2. Definitions

"Content" means text, photographs, images, messages, listings, profile information, feedback, and other materials submitted through the Services.

3. Eligibility and Age Requirements

You must be at least 18 years old and legally capable of entering into a binding contract. The Services are not directed to children. You may not permit a minor to create or control an Account. ColLock may request information reasonably necessary to confirm eligibility and may suspend or terminate an Account if eligibility cannot be confirmed.

You represent that you are not prohibited from using the Services under applicable law, including export-control and sanctions laws.

4. Accounts, Credentials, and Security

You must provide accurate, current, and complete information and promptly update it. You may maintain only the number of Accounts expressly permitted by ColLock. You may not sell, transfer, rent, or share an Account without ColLock's written permission.

You are responsible for safeguarding credentials and for all activity occurring through your Account, except to the extent caused solely by ColLock's breach of a nonwaivable legal duty. You must promptly notify ColLock at support@logomancollects.com of suspected unauthorized access. ColLock may require password resets, multifactor authentication, email verification, identity verification, or other security controls.

5. License to Use the Services

Subject to these Terms, ColLock grants you a limited, personal, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable, nonsublicensable license to access and use the Services for your own lawful, noncommercial collection-management activities and permitted User Transactions.

No rights are granted by implication. ColLock may establish or modify feature, storage, messaging, query, download, API, or usage limits.

6. ColLock Ownership and Intellectual Property

ColLock and its licensors own all right, title, and interest in and to the Services, including software, source and object code, designs, interfaces, workflows, database architecture, taxonomies, compilations, proprietary checklists, corrections, enhancements, rankings, scoring and matching methods, analytics, documentation, branding, trademarks, and all related intellectual-property and proprietary rights.

Except for the limited license in Section 5, you acquire no ownership interest in the Services. You may not remove proprietary notices or use ColLock names, marks, or branding without written permission.

7. User Content and Operational License

As between you and ColLock, you retain ownership of original Content you lawfully submit. You represent and warrant that you own or control all rights necessary to submit the Content and grant the licenses below.

You grant ColLock a worldwide, nonexclusive, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable license to host, store, cache, reproduce, format, adapt, process, transmit, display, and otherwise use Content as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, support, moderate, improve, promote, and provide the Services; comply with law; enforce these Terms; and protect ColLock, users, and the public. This license continues for so long as the Content remains in ColLock systems, including reasonable backup and legal-retention periods.

You authorize ColLock to derive, create, and permanently use aggregated or de-identified information from Content, Collection Data, and your use of the Services. This information may include data concerning the identity, type, quantity, condition, grade, grading company, value, ownership status, popularity, scarcity, acquisition, disposition, and trade activity of cards or collectibles recorded through the Services.

ColLock may retain, analyze, reproduce, modify, combine, disclose, license, sell, publish, distribute, and otherwise commercially use aggregated or de-identified information permanently, worldwide, for any lawful purpose, without notice, attribution, restriction, or compensation to you. These rights are perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable, and survive the deletion or termination of your Account.

ColLock will maintain reasonable measures designed to prevent this information from being reasonably associated with you, your Account, your household, or a particular device. ColLock will not attempt to re-identify the information except to test or improve its de-identification controls, investigate fraud or security incidents, comply with applicable law, or as otherwise permitted by applicable law.

8. Collection Data; Database Integrity

You retain your rights in personal Collection Data you create or import. ColLock may normalize, correct, deduplicate, enrich, classify, and combine submitted data with other information. ColLock owns its independent corrections, enhancements, compilations, database structure, taxonomies, rankings, analytics, and other value added by ColLock.

ColLock does not guarantee that any checklist, card description, population information, estimated value, ranking, grade, or other database entry is complete, current, accurate, or suitable for any purpose. You are responsible for independently verifying information before relying on it.

ColLock exclusively owns all rights, title, and interest in any analytics, statistics, rankings, trends, scores, indexes, reports, benchmarks, estimates, models, compilations, taxonomies, corrections, enhancements, insights, and other outputs independently created by ColLock from or using Collection Data. This includes outputs concerning card ownership, quantity, condition, grade, popularity, scarcity, demand, trading activity, or estimated value. These outputs will not be considered your personal Collection Data to the extent they constitute aggregated or de-identified information or ColLock's independently created intellectual property.

9. Feedback

If you provide ideas, suggestions, requests, corrections, or other feedback, you grant ColLock an irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free right to use, modify, disclose, commercialize, and exploit that feedback without restriction, attribution, or compensation.

10. Prohibited Conduct

You may not, directly or indirectly: violate law or another person's rights; submit unlawful, fraudulent, deceptive, threatening, harassing, defamatory, obscene, or infringing material; impersonate another person; manipulate ratings, rankings, trades, or platform metrics; send spam or unsolicited promotions; scrape, crawl, index, harvest, or bulk-download data; use bots or automated means without written permission; reverse engineer or attempt to discover source code; bypass security or usage controls; introduce malware; conduct penetration testing without authorization; interfere with operation; create a competing product or database using ColLock data; train or evaluate an artificial-intelligence or machine-learning system using ColLock content or data; resell, sublicense, syndicate, or commercially exploit the Services; or assist another person in doing any prohibited act.

ColLock may investigate suspected violations and use automated or manual tools to detect abuse. ColLock has no obligation to monitor all activity or Content.

11. Messaging, Trades, Sales, and Other User Transactions

ColLock provides tools that may help users find, communicate with, and transact with one another. Every User Transaction is solely between the participating users. ColLock is not a party to, broker of, dealer in, auctioneer for, payment processor for, escrow agent for, insurer of, fiduciary for, appraiser of, or guarantor of any User Transaction.

ColLock does not possess or inspect items and does not guarantee identity, ownership, title, authenticity, condition, grade, value, legality, merchantability, payment, shipment, delivery, or performance. You assume all risks of User Transactions, including counterfeits, altered cards, stolen property, fraud, chargebacks, tax liabilities, shipping loss, and personal-safety risks.

You are responsible for due diligence, transaction terms, payment methods, shipping, insurance, taxes, records, legal compliance, and dispute resolution. ColLock may investigate, restrict, warn, suspend, or terminate users, but has no duty to mediate, reimburse, reverse, insure, or resolve a User Transaction.

12. Third-Party Services and Integrations

The Services may link to or integrate with eBay, PSA, Stripe, Google, Dropbox, advertising networks, analytics providers, storage providers, and other third parties. Third-party services are governed by their own terms and privacy practices. ColLock does not control and is not responsible for third-party availability, content, security, accuracy, acts, omissions, fees, or data practices.

You authorize ColLock and the applicable provider to exchange information necessary to enable an integration you choose. You may be required to revoke access through the third party as well as through ColLock.

13. Subscriptions, Billing, and Automatic Renewal

Certain features require a paid subscription. Before purchase, ColLock will present the price, billing interval, renewal terms, cancellation method, and other material terms. By purchasing, you authorize ColLock and its payment processor to charge your selected payment method on a recurring basis until cancellation.

Subscriptions automatically renew for successive periods of the same length unless cancelled before the renewal charge. You may cancel through the same online account interface used for enrollment, or through any other method ColLock is legally required to provide. Cancellation prevents future renewal charges and ordinarily takes effect at the end of the then-current paid period. Except where required by law or expressly stated in an offer, fees are nonrefundable and are not prorated.

ColLock may change prices or plan features upon advance notice required by law. Taxes may be added. Failed payments may result in retries, suspension, downgrade, or termination. Trials and promotional rates convert to the disclosed paid plan unless cancelled before conversion. App-store purchases are also subject to the applicable app store's billing and cancellation rules.

14. Advertising and Promotions

Free or other designated plans may display advertising, including personalized or contextual advertising, subject to the Privacy Policy and available privacy choices. ColLock does not endorse advertised products or guarantee advertiser claims. Promotions may be governed by separate official rules.

15. Copyright and Intellectual-Property Complaints

ColLock respects intellectual-property rights. A rights holder may submit a complaint to support@logomancollects.com identifying the protected work, the allegedly infringing material, contact information, a good-faith statement, an accuracy and authority statement under penalty of perjury, and a physical or electronic signature. ColLock may remove material and terminate repeat infringers. ColLock may request additional information and may forward a complaint to the affected user.

16. Moderation, Enforcement, and Cooperation

ColLock may, in its sole and reasonable discretion, review, preserve, remove, restrict, or disclose Content; limit features; freeze or suspend Accounts; preserve evidence; and take any action reasonably necessary to enforce these Terms, protect users, maintain platform integrity, respond to legal process, or prevent harm. ColLock may cooperate with law enforcement and other authorities as permitted or required by law.

ColLock is not liable for declining to take action, for taking action in good faith, or for errors in moderation, except to the extent liability cannot lawfully be excluded.

17. Service Changes, Availability, and Beta Features

ColLock may add, modify, replace, limit, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time. The Services may be unavailable because of maintenance, failures, third parties, security incidents, or events beyond ColLock's control. ColLock does not guarantee uninterrupted operation, preservation of data, or availability of any feature.

Beta, preview, experimental, or artificial-intelligence-assisted features may be incomplete, inaccurate, changed, or withdrawn without notice and are provided for evaluation only.

18. Data Export, Backups, and Account Closure

You are responsible for maintaining independent copies of important Content and Collection Data. ColLock is not a backup or archival service. Subject to available functionality and legal requirements, ColLock may offer export tools but does not guarantee a particular format or continued export availability.

You may request deletion of your Account as described in the Privacy Policy. Subject to applicable law, ColLock will delete, anonymize, aggregate, or de-identify personal information associated with your Account in accordance with its retention practices. ColLock may retain information when reasonably necessary to comply with law, resolve disputes, prevent fraud, maintain security, enforce these Terms, preserve legal claims, or maintain backup and business records.

Deleting your Account does not require ColLock to delete aggregated or de-identified information, analytics, statistics, rankings, compilations, corrections, enhancements, or other information that cannot reasonably be linked to you, your Account, your household, or a particular device. ColLock may retain and commercially use that information permanently as provided in these Terms.

19. Disclaimers

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS," "AS AVAILABLE," AND "WITH ALL FAULTS." COLLOCK DISCLAIMS ALL EXPRESS, IMPLIED, AND STATUTORY WARRANTIES, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, QUIET ENJOYMENT, ACCURACY, SECURITY, AVAILABILITY, AND COURSE OF DEALING.

COLLOCK DOES NOT PROVIDE INVESTMENT, FINANCIAL, TAX, LEGAL, AUTHENTICATION, GRADING, APPRAISAL, OR INSURANCE ADVICE. ESTIMATED VALUES, RANKINGS, POPULATION INFORMATION, AND RECOMMENDATIONS ARE INFORMATIONAL ONLY. YOU ASSUME ALL RISK FROM RELIANCE ON THE SERVICES.

20. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, COLLOCK AND ITS AFFILIATES, OWNERS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, CONTRACTORS, LICENSORS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; LOST PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, OPPORTUNITIES, OR DATA; LOSS OF COLLECTION VALUE; REPLACEMENT PURCHASES; BUSINESS INTERRUPTION; OR DAMAGES ARISING FROM USER TRANSACTIONS, THIRD PARTIES, UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS, SERVICE INTERRUPTION, OR DATA LOSS, REGARDLESS OF THEORY AND EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY.

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF ALL COLLOCK PARTIES FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID COLLOCK DURING THE SIX MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS. IF THAT CAP IS UNENFORCEABLE, LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE MINIMUM AMOUNT PERMITTED BY LAW.

These limitations allocate risk and are a fundamental basis of the bargain. They do not apply to liability that applicable law does not permit ColLock to limit.

21. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the ColLock parties from claims, demands, investigations, losses, liabilities, judgments, settlements, penalties, costs, and reasonable attorneys' fees arising from or relating to your Content, Collection Data, User Transactions, use or misuse of the Services, violation of these Terms or law, infringement or violation of rights, taxes, fraud, misconduct, or dispute with another user. ColLock may control the defense and settlement. You may not settle a claim imposing liability, admission, or obligation on a ColLock party without ColLock's written consent.

22. Suspension and Termination

You may stop using the Services at any time. ColLock may suspend, restrict, or terminate access immediately, with or without notice, if ColLock reasonably believes you violated these Terms, created risk, failed to pay, engaged in fraud or abuse, or if termination is necessary to comply with law or protect the Services.

Upon termination, your license ends. Provisions that by nature should survive will survive, including ownership, licenses concerning retained or de-identified data, disclaimers, limitations, indemnification, dispute resolution, and general terms.

23. Informal Dispute Resolution

Before filing arbitration or a court action, the complaining party must send an individualized written Notice of Dispute to the other party. Notices to ColLock must be sent to support@logomancollects.com. The notice must identify the claimant, Account email, factual and legal basis, requested relief, and a personally signed statement authorizing the notice.

The parties will attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute for 60 days after receipt. Any limitations period is tolled during that period to the extent permitted by law. This process is a condition precedent to arbitration or litigation.

24. Binding Individual Arbitration; Class and Jury Waivers

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. EXCEPT FOR THE EXCEPTIONS BELOW, YOU AND COLLOCK AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS, THE PRIVACY POLICY, THE SERVICES, OR THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN YOU AND COLLOCK WILL BE RESOLVED BY FINAL AND BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION, NOT IN COURT. THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT GOVERNS THIS SECTION.

The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its then-current Consumer Arbitration Rules and applicable fee schedule, as modified by this Section. If AAA is unavailable or refuses administration after the parties comply with applicable requirements, a court of competent jurisdiction will select a substitute administrator applying materially similar consumer procedures.

The arbitrator may award any individual relief available in court but may not consolidate claims or award relief for anyone other than the individual claimant. Each party retains the right to bring a qualifying individual action in small-claims court and to seek temporary or preliminary injunctive relief in court to prevent actual or threatened infringement, unauthorized access, scraping, security circumvention, or misuse of intellectual property while arbitration proceeds.

YOU AND COLLOCK WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL AND ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, CONSOLIDATED, COORDINATED, MASS, PRIVATE-ATTORNEY-GENERAL, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT ONLY IN AN INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY.

If 25 or more substantially similar demands are submitted within 180 days by the same or coordinated counsel, the parties will use a staged bellwether process reasonably designed to facilitate efficient resolution, subject to AAA approval and applicable law. No batch will proceed unless prior batches and a good-faith mediation have concluded. This paragraph does not authorize class arbitration.

You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending a personally signed notice to support@logomancollects.com within 30 days after first accepting these Terms. The notice must identify your name, Account email, and an unequivocal decision to opt out. Opting out does not affect any other provision.

If the class-action waiver is finally held unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, that claim or remedy will proceed in court after arbitration of all arbitrable matters, unless applicable law requires otherwise. The remainder of this Section survives.

25. Governing Law and Venue

Except as governed by the Federal Arbitration Act or preemptive federal law, these Terms are governed by Alabama law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. For disputes not subject to arbitration, the parties consent to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state and federal courts located in Jefferson County, Alabama, except where applicable consumer law requires another forum.

26. Changes to These Terms

ColLock may revise these Terms prospectively. ColLock will provide notice of material changes through the Services, by email, or by another legally sufficient method. Changes become effective on the stated date. ColLock will obtain renewed affirmative acceptance where required by law or where ColLock determines that a change materially affects arbitration, payment, data rights, or other substantial rights. Changes will not retroactively alter an accrued dispute unless both parties agree.

27. General Provisions

These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and any incorporated plan or promotion terms constitute the entire agreement concerning the Services. If a provision is unenforceable, it will be enforced to the maximum lawful extent and the remainder will continue. Failure to enforce is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without written consent; ColLock may assign them in connection with a merger, financing, reorganization, sale of assets, or by operation of law. No agency, partnership, joint venture, employment, or fiduciary relationship is created. There are no third-party beneficiaries except the ColLock parties protected by Sections 19 through 21. Headings are for convenience. Electronic records and signatures have the same effect as paper records and signatures. ColLock is not liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond reasonable control.
