    Interlocutor Classifieds: Terms of Use & Disclaimer

    1. No Liability for Transactions

    Interlocutor (the “Site”) provides a platform for classified listings but is not a party to any transaction. Interlocutor Media Arts does not own, inspect, store, or sell any of the items or services listed.

    • The Risk: You acknowledge that any transaction you enter into is at your own soul risk.

    • No Endorsement: A listing on this forum does not constitute an endorsement of the seller, the product, or the service.

    2. Physical Safety & “Meet-Up” Disclaimer

    Interlocutor is not responsible for the conduct of any user, whether online or offline.

    • Personal Safety: If you choose to meet another user in person for a transaction, you do so entirely at your own risk.

    • Recommendation: We strongly advise meeting in public, well-lit “Safe Exchange” zones (such as local police station parking lots) and never going to a stranger’s home alone.

    • No Damages: Interlocutor Media Arts is not liable for any physical injury, bodily harm, or damages resulting from meetings or interactions initiated through this forum.

    3. No Warranty on Products or Services

    All items and services are provided “As-Is.”

    • Bad Services: We are not liable for the quality, legality, or safety of any services offered (e.g., freelance work, etc.).

    • Health & Safety: We are not liable for any illness, injury, or allergic reactions caused by products purchased through the classifieds.

    4. Malicious Links & Cybersecurity

    Users may post links to external websites.

    • No Verification: We do not verify the safety of external links. Clicking any link in a classified ad is done at your own risk.

    • Malware/Scams: Interlocutor is not liable for any malware, phishing, or financial loss resulting from clicking third-party links or visiting external sites.

    Users may not list illegal items, weapons, prescription drugs, or any items that violate local, state, or federal laws. We reserve the right to remove any listing at any time for any reason.

    6. Indemnification

    By using the Classifieds, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless Interlocutor Media Arts, and its affiliates from any claims, lawsuits, or financial losses arising from your use of the platform or your interactions with other users.

    7. Scam Prevention & Financial Safety

    To maintain a safe community, all users must adhere to the following safety protocols. Interlocutor is not responsible for any financial loss resulting from failure to follow these guidelines:

    • No Overpayment Scams: If a buyer offers to pay more than your asking price and asks you to “wire back” the difference or pay a “shipper,” it is a scam. Immediately cease contact.

    • Never Share Verification Codes: If a user asks you to send them a “verification code” sent to your phone to “prove you are real,” they are attempting to hijack your accounts (e.g., Google Voice scams). Never share codes with anyone.

    • Avoid Non-Secure Payments: We strongly discourage payments via Wire Transfer (Western Union, MoneyGram), Gift Cards, or Cryptocurrency. These methods are untraceable and non-refundable.

    • “Sight-Unseen” Red Flags: Be highly suspicious of buyers or sellers who refuse to meet in person or claim to be “out of the country” or “on military deployment” as an excuse for not showing the item.

    8. Reporting Suspicious Activity

    If you encounter a listing that appears to be a scam, a phishing attempt, or contains malicious links, you are required to Report the Post using the forum’s built-in reporting tools. While we do our best to moderate, Interlocutor does not guarantee the removal of all fraudulent content.

    9. Right to Terminate Access

    Interlocutor reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to ban any user or remove any listing that we believe poses a risk to the community, violates these terms, or appears fraudulent. No refunds will be issued for “Premium” or “Paid” listings if a user is banned for scamming.

  6. Subscription Access & Tax Policy
    1. Metered Access: Guests are permitted to view up to three (3) unique articles in the ‘Premium Content’ category per 30-day period. Access to the fourth article and beyond requires an active paid membership.
    2. Taxes: Prices are listed exclusive of sales tax/VAT. We collect sales tax only in jurisdictions where we have a legal Economic Nexus. If you are in a taxable jurisdiction, tax will be calculated at checkout based on your billing address.
