  1. Introduction

This User Agreement and all policies and additional terms posted on and in our sites, applications, tools and services (collectively “Services”) set out the terms on which B2B Tyres offers you access to and use of our Services. All policies and additional terms posted on and in our sites, applications, tools, and services are incorporated into this User Agreement. You agree to comply with all of the terms of this User Agreement when accessing or using our Services.

The entity you are contracting with is: B2B Tyres SA registered in Panama.

In this User Agreement, these entities are individually and collectively referred to as “B2B Tyres,” “we,” or “us.”

Please be advised that this User Agreement contains provisions that govern how claims you and we have against each other are resolved (see Disclaimer of Warranties; Limitation of Liability and Legal Disputes provisions below). It also contains an Agreement to Arbitrate, which will, with limited exception, require you to submit claims you have against us or our agents to binding and final arbitration, unless you opt out of the Agreement to Arbitrate (see Legal Disputes, Section B(“Agreement to Arbitrate”)).

Unless you opt out: (1) you will only be permitted to pursue claims against us or our agents on an individual basis, not as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative action or proceeding and (2) you will only be permitted to seek relief (including monetary, injunctive, and declaratory relief) on an individual basis.

  1. About B2B Tyres

B2B Tyres is a marketplace that allows users to offer, sell and buy just about anything in a variety of pricing formats and locations. The actual contract for sale is directly between the seller and buyer. B2B Tyres is not a traditional auctioneer.

While we may provide pricing, shipping, listing, sourcing, and other guidance in our Services, such guidance is solely informational and you may decide to follow it or not. Also, while we may help facilitate the resolution of disputes through various programs, B2B Tyres has no control over and does not guarantee: the existence, quality, safety or legality of items advertised; the truth or accuracy of users’ content or listings; the ability of sellers to sell items; the ability of buyers to pay for items; or that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction or return an item.

  • post, list or upload content or items in inappropriate categories or areas on our sites;
  • breach or circumvent any laws, third-party rights or our systems, policies, or determinations of your account status;
  • use our Services if you are not able to form legally binding contracts (for example, if you are under 18 years old), or are temporarily or indefinitely suspended from using our sites, services, applications or tools;
  • fail to pay for items purchased by you, unless you have a valid reason as set out in an B2B Tyres policy,;

If we believe you are violating any of our policies, you may be subject to a range of actions, including limits on your buying and selling privileges, restrictions on listings and account features, suspension of your account, application of fees, and recovery of expenses for policy monitoring and enforcement.

We may cancel unconfirmed accounts or accounts that have been inactive for a long time or modify or discontinue our Services. Additionally, we reserve the right to refuse or terminate all or part of our Services to anyone for any reason at our discretion.

  1. Policy Enforcement

When a buyer or seller issue arises, we may consider the user’s performance history and the specific circumstances in applying our policies. We may choose to be more lenient with policy enforcement in an effort to do the right thing for both buyers and sellers.

  1. Fees

The fees we charge for using our Services, if any, will be listed in our Site. We may change our seller fees from time to time by posting the changes on the B2B Tyres site 14 days in advance, but with no advance notice required for temporary promotions or any changes that result in the reduction of fees.

If applicable, you must have a payment method on file when selling through B2B Tyres Services and pay all fees and applicable taxes associated with our Services by the payment due date. If your payment method fails or your account is past due, we may collect amounts owed by charging other payment methods on file with us. B2B Tyres, or the collection agencies we retain, may also report information about your account to credit bureaus, and as a result, late payments, missed payments, or other defaults on your account may be reflected in your credit report.

Seller fees don’t purchase exclusive rights to item exposure on B2B Tyres, whether on a web page, mobile app, or otherwise. We may, in our sole discretion and without consent from, or payment, fee reduction, or other credit to, sellers, display third-party advertisements (including links and references thereto) or other content in any part of our Services.

  1. Listing Conditions

When listing an item:

  • You are responsible for the accuracy and content of the listing and item offered

  • Content that violates any of B2B Tyres’s policies may be modified, obfuscated or deleted at B2B Tyres’s discretion
  • We may revise product data associated with listings to supplement, remove, or correct information
  • We strive to create a marketplace where buyers find what they are looking for. Therefore, the appearance or placement of listings in search and browse results will depend on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to:
    • buyer’s location, search query, browsing site, and history;
    • item’s location, listing format, price and shipping cost, terms of service, end time, history, and relevance to the user query;
    • seller’s history, including listing practices, Detailed Seller Ratings, B2B Tyres policy compliance, Feedback, and defect rate; and
    • number of listings matching the buyer’s query
  • To drive a positive user experience, a listing may not appear in some search and browse results regardless of the sort order chosen by the buyer
  • Some advanced listing upgrades will only be visible on certain Services
  • We may provide you with optional recommendations to consider when creating your listings. Such recommendations may be based on the aggregated sales and performance history of similar sold and current listings; results will vary for individual listings. To drive the recommendations experience, you agree that we may display the sales and performance history of your individual listings to those of other sellers.
  1. Purchase Conditions

When buying an item:

  • You are responsible for reading the full item listing before commitment to buy
  • You enter into a legally binding contract to purchase an item when you commit to buy an item, your offer for an item is accepted, or if you have the winning bid (or your bid is otherwise accepted)
  • We do not transfer legal ownership of items from the seller to the buyer.
  1. International Buying and Selling; Translation

Many of our Services are accessible to international sellers and buyers. We may offer certain programs, tools, and site experiences of particular interest to international sellers and buyers. Sellers and buyers are responsible for complying with all laws and regulations applicable to the international sale, purchase, and shipment of items. If you purchase an item on an B2B Tyres site other than B2B Tyres.com, you are subject to the User Agreement of that other B2B Tyres site with respect to that particular purchase.
