Bailbonds.com is a Venue
Bailbonds.com acts as a venue to allow its members to offer, sell, and buy just about anything bail related, at anytime. We are not involved in the actual transaction between buyers and sellers. As a result, we have no control over the quality, safety or legality of the items advertised, the truth or accuracy of the listings, the ability of sellers to sell items or the ability of buyers to pay for items. We cannot ensure that a buyer or seller will actually complete a transaction. Consequently, we do not transfer legal ownership of items from the seller to the buyer, and nothing in this agreement shall modify the governing provisions of Uniform Com. Code § 2-401(2), under which legal ownership of an item is transferred upon physical delivery of the item to the buyer by the seller.

Identity Verification
We use many techniques to verify the accuracy of the information our members provide us when they register on the Site. However, because user verification on the Internet is difficult, Bailbonds.com cannot guarantee the accuracy of its Member and Sponsor listings after the initial verification. Should we be unable to verify a listing, we will attempt to contact the individual attempting to register on Bailbonds.com to provide additional information to verify the listing.

Release
Because we are a venue, in the event that you have a dispute with one or more members, you release Bailbonds.com (and our officers, directors, agents, subsidiaries, joint ventures and employees) from claims, demands and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected with such disputes.

Information Control
We do not control the information provided by other users that is made available through our system. You may find other user's information to be offensive, harmful, inaccurate, or deceptive. Please use caution and, common sense. Please note that there are also risks of dealing with underage persons or people acting under false pretense. By using this Site, you agree to accept such risks and Bailbonds.com is not responsible for the acts or omissions of users on the Site.
