Terms of Use for SkylineCowboy.com

The Bounty Poster is the person or entity offering money in exchange for the receipt of certain information listed on the skylinecowboy.com website. 

Any person or entity seeking to provide that information in order to claim the Bounty Offer is called the Bounty Claimer.

The amount of money the Bounty Poster offers to pay for the information requested is called the Bounty Offer.

All conditions to payment of the Bounty Offer must be specified in writing at the time of offer or may be added, modified, deleted or clarified by the Bounty Poster through subsequent communications in writing with a Bounty Claimer.  These subsequent written communications include any and all emails and chat communications between the Bounty Poster and a particular Bounty Claimer that are routed through the skylinecowboy.com website.  A written clarification or modification by the Bounty Poster made privately through email or chat to one Bounty Claimer is not effective with respect to any other unrelated Bounty Claimer.

The Bounty Offer is a unilateral promise by the Bounty Poster to pay the Bounty Claimer the amount specified in the Bounty Offer, upon full performance by the Bounty Claimer of all conditions specified in the Bounty Offer, as those conditions may be modified or clarified in writing as described, above. 

The Bounty Offer is properly claimed only when each and every condition specified in the Bounty Offer is fully performed by the Bounty Claimer(s).  Partial or substantial performance of any specified condition will not require payment of the Bounty Offer or any part thereof.

The Bounty Claimer represents and warrants that all information provided through the skylinecowboy.com website is true and correct.  Bounty Claimer further warrants that all documents, images, recordings and other attachments provided through the skylinecowboy.com website are in their original, unaltered condition.

The Bounty Poster is not obligated to pay the Bounty Offer more than one time.  If multiple Bounty Claimers properly claim the Bounty Offer, the first Bounty Claimer to fully perform all conditions specified by the Bounty Poster (as conditions may be modified or clarified in writing as described above) is entitled to receive the full Bounty Offer, to the exclusion of all other Bounty Claimers.

The Bounty Poster may not seek information that is a bone fide trade secret of another person or company.  The Bounty Poster may not seek information that is protected by law, or for the purposes of committing or inducing the commission of a crime or tort.

Unless otherwise agreed in writing, Bounty Poster and Bounty Claimer grant a fully-paid copyright license to the site content deposited by each of them on the skylinecowboy.com website to skylinecowboy.com, for it to use, distribute and from which to create derivative works in its sole discretion.

Fees and Services

Joining SkylineCowboy is free. We do charge fees for using other services. When you list an item or use a service that has a fee you have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged based on our Fees Schedule which we may change from time to time. Changes to that Policy are effective after we provide you with at least fourteen days' notice by posting the changes on the SkylineCowboy site. We may choose to temporarily change the fees for our services for promotional events (for example, free listing days) or new services, and such changes are effective when we post the temporary promotional event or new service on the sites.

Unless otherwise stated, all fees are quoted in U.S. Dollars. You are responsible for paying all fees and applicable taxes associated with our sites and services in a timely manner with a valid payment method.

Content

When you give us content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable (through multiple tiers) right to exercise the copyright, trademark, publicity, and database rights (but no other rights) you have in the content, in any media known now or in the future.

For the convenience of Reward Posters, we may offer catalogs of stock images, descriptions and product specifications, which are provided by third-parties. While we try to offer reliable data, we cannot promise that the bounty listings will always be accurate and up-to-date. You agree that you will not hold our bounty posters responsible for inaccuracies in their postings. The postings may include copyrighted, trademarked or other proprietary materials.

Liability

You will not hold SkylineCowboy responsible for other users' content, actions or inactions, or bounty items they list. You acknowledge that we are not a traditional bounty Poster. Instead, the sites are a venue to allow anyone to offer and claim bounties on just about anything, at anytime, from anywhere.  We are not involved in the actual transaction between bounty posters and Claimers. We have no control over and do not guarantee the quality, safety or legality of items advertised, the truth or accuracy of users’ content or postings, the ability of bounty posters to pay the bounty offered, or that a bounty poster or bounty claimaint will actually complete a transaction.

We cannot guarantee continuous or secure access to our services, and operation of the sites may be interfered with by numerous factors outside of our control.

We are not liable for any loss of money, goodwill, or reputation, or any special, indirect, or consequential damages arising out of your use of our sites and services. Some jurisdictions do not allow the disclaimer of warranties or exclusion of damages, so such disclaimers and exclusions may not apply to you.

Regardless of the previous paragraph, if we are found to be liable, our liability to you or to any third party is limited to the greater of (a) the total fees you paid to us in the 12 months prior to the action giving rise to the liability, and (b) $100.

If you are a California resident, you waive California Civil Code §1542, which says: "A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor."
