### LISTING RESCUE CAVEATS ###

EBay Listing Rescue Terms:

It is impossible for us to visually check every listing before running the cleaning process. We aim to inspect a large enough sample to gauge what active content and
templates can be removed.

This means:

  • We may not be aware of every use of active content or templates in your listings. The result is that these uses may not be removed during the cleaning.
  • We may not be aware of any incorrect usage of active content or templates. This may produce undesired results after the cleaning.
  • We may not be aware of how user entered HTML is being used across every listing.
  • Removing of active content involves the deletion of code from your listings’ description. While we aim to only remove code related to active content or templates, there
    are factors outside our control that could result in unintended code removal. These factors can include but are not limited to.

    • Modifications made to the original code of the active content or template.
    • Incorrect usage of the active content or a template.
    • Elements of a listing being dependent upon code contained in the active content or template. For example, a listing description that has been styled using CSS
      used in the template to be removed.
  • Unintended code removal can result in, but is not limited to, the following issues.
    • Elements of a listing, such as images or description, being removed.
    • The visual layout of a listing appearing to be broken.
  • There will be a period of time between the initial sampling of existing listings and the cleaning. Issues may occur if factors outside our control are introduced during
    that period. These can include, but are not limited to:

    • Code being modified in existing listings. This can include the addition or removal of active content or third party templates, or the manual editing of descriptions.
    • New listings are added whose code is different to existing listings.
  • We can only clean listings that are active on eBay. We cannot revise sold, unsold, or deleted listings.
  • Cleaning a listing is done by revising the listing. There are factors outside our control that may prevent a revision from being allowed. These factors include, but are not
    limited to:

    • The listing violating eBay’s policies.
    • The eBay user being in violation of eBay’s policies.
    • eBay may impose restrictions at the time a listing is revised.
  • Removing active content from a template may result in it no longer working. This can produce results that include but are not limited to:
    • Elements of the template, such as scrolling galleries and tabs, may no longer work.
    • Elements of a template, such as images, the description, seller information, being no longer visible.

eBay Bulk Apply Terms:

It is impossible for us to visually check every listing before applying the template. We aim to inspect a large enough sample to gauge that the template can be applied successfully.

This means:

  • We may not be aware of every use of existing active content or third party templates in your listings.
  • We may not be aware of any incorrect usage of existing active content or third party templates.
  • We may not be aware of how user entered HTML is being used across every listing.
  • Applying the template involves the addition of code to a listing’s description. While we aim to add the template in such a way as to cause the least amount of disruption, there are factors outside our control that could result in issues.
    • Existing active content or third party templates.
    • User created HTML used in the listing’s description.
  • Disruptions that can occur can be, but are not limited to.
    • Existing active content or third party templates reaming in the listing.
    • The listing appearing visually broken due to elements in the existing listing description.
  • There will be a period of time between the initial sampling of existing listings and the bulk applying of the template. Issues may occur if factors outside our control are
    introduced during that period. These can include, but are not limited to:

    • Code being modified in existing listings. This can include the addition or removal of active content or third party templates, or the manual editing of descriptions.
    • New listings are added whose code is different to existing listings.
  • We may decide that your listings can be cleaned as part of the bulk applying. In this instance extra caveats would be applicable.
  • We can only apply your template to listings that are active on eBay. We cannot revise sold, unsold, or deleted listings.
  • Applying the template is done by revising the listing. There are factors outside our control that may prevent a revision from being allowed. These factors include, but
    are not limited to:

    • The listing violating eBay’s policies.
