These Terms of Use govern your use of the Sites and other digital content services, such as mobile device connectivity. Please read these Terms of Use carefully. Your use of the Sites signifies your agreement to these Terms of Use. Separate terms and conditions may apply to other Garbageman.com services or business transactions.

Notice Regarding Dispute Resolution: These Terms of Use contain provisions that govern how claims you and Garbageman.com have against each other are resolved (see Legal Disputes and Arbitration Agreement Section below), including an obligation to arbitrate disputes on an individual basis, which will, subject to limited exceptions, require you to submit claims you have against us to binding individual arbitration, unless you opt-out in accordance with the Arbitration Section below.

We may choose to communicate with you by e-mail, text messaging, or by posting notices on the Sites. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing.

PRIVACY

Our Privacy Policy available at Garbageman.com (“Privacy Policy”) governs the collection, use, and disclosure of your personal information. Our Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms of Use by this reference. By accessing the Sites you agree to the practices described in our Privacy Policy.

PLACING ORDERS; BILLING & PAYMENT

You represent and warrant that you have the right to use any credit card or other means of payment that you provide to us. By providing payment card information to us, you authorize us to store and use the card as a payment method for purchases made through your account with us. All billing information you provide to us must be truthful and accurate. Providing any untruthful or inaccurate information is a breach of these Terms of Use and may result in cancellation of your order. Prior to accepting an order we may also request additional information from you. Verification of information may be required prior to the acknowledgment or completion of any purchase. We reserve the right to refuse or cancel an order for any reason, including not limited to inaccuracies or errors in service or pricing information, or problems identified by our credit and fraud avoidance department. If your order is canceled after your credit card (or other payment account) has been charged, we will issue a credit to your credit card (or other applicable payment account) in the amount of the charge. We will attempt to contact you if all or any portion of your order is canceled or if additional information is required to accept your order. We may request a pre-authorization for some orders placed online with a credit or debit card. This pre-authorization will not be billed to you; however, your card issuer may hold this amount for a short period. Your card issuer determines the length of time the pre-authorization is held. We do this to ensure that the card details are still valid and that you have sufficient funds to complete the transaction.

1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed;

2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at that site.

Upon receipt of the written notification containing the information as outlined in 1 through 6 above:

1. Garbageman.com will remove or disable access to the content that is alleged to be infringing;

2. Garbageman.com will forward the written notification to the alleged infringer; and

3. Garbageman.com will take reasonable steps to promptly notify the alleged infringer that we have removed or disabled access to the content.

DMCA Infringement Counter Notification. Pursuant to the DMCA, after the alleged infringer receives a notice of infringement from Garbageman.com, the alleged infringer will have the opportunity to respond to Garbageman.com with a counter notification (“Counter Notification”). To be effective, a Counter Notification must be a written communication provided to Garbageman.com’s designated copyright agent, and must include the following:

1. A physical or electronic signature of the alleged infringer;

Upon the copyright agent’s receipt of a Counter Notification containing the information as outlined in 1 through 4 above, the DMCA provides that the removed material will be restored or access re-enabled and we will comply with this requirement as required by law, provided that the designated agent has not received notice from the original complaining party that an action has been filed seeking a court order to restrain the alleged infringer from engaging in infringing activity relating to the material on our network.
