2. Marketplace

The Marketplace allows users to buy and sell domain names with other users (along with any other services described herein, the "Services"). Specifically, buyers of domain names ("Buyers") may utilize the Marketplace to search for domains that Buyer may wish to acquire and enter into transactions with seller(s) to acquire those names. Sellers of domain names ("Sellers") may utilize the Marketplace to post domain name they wish to sell and to enter into transactions with Buyers for those domain names. We are merely a venue on or through which users can enter into transactions with one another and does not have any influence or control over how users conduct their business on the Site or utilize the Marketplace and Services.

3. Domain Name Purchase and Sale Agreements

Sellers and Buyers on the Marketplace enter into their own purchase and sale agreement ("Purchase and Sale Agreement") for any domain name sold through the Marketplace.

We are a neutral facilitator of the Marketplace and shall not be subject to any claims arising from the attempted purchase and sale of domain names through the Marketplace.

The Marketplace allows Buyers to acquire domain names from Sellers through a payment plan that allows Buyers to pay for the domain name with various installment payments disclosed at the time the purchase is initiated ("Payment Plan Purchases"). As used herein "Payment Plan Period" means the period of time between when a Payment Plan Purchase begins (ie. when the first installment payment is made) and when the domain name is transferred to the Buyer after the full purchase price has been paid

During the Payment Plan Period, Buyers are able to make changes to the DNS records or host records for the domain name to allow them to use the domain name. You acknowledge and agree that we are not liable or responsible in any way for any mistakes or errors you make related to such changes in DNS records or host records.

You and we agree to submit to personal jurisdiction in such court.

25.6. Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms to the contrary, you and we agree that if we make a change to this Agreement to Arbitrate (other than a change to the notice address or the site link provided herein) in the future, that change shall not apply to a claim that was filed in a legal proceeding between you and us prior to the effective date of the change.
