Welcome to Solaire! To make the Terms and Conditions (the "Terms") easier to read, we will sometimes refer to THE SPOT ROOM INC. d/b/a SOLAIRE as "SOLAIRE", "our", "we", or "us"; we will refer to you as "you" or a derivative of you; and we will refer to a user who creates an account on SOLAIRE as a "User(s)". In some instances when describing interactions between Users we will differentiate between "buyer" Users (each, a "Buyer") and "seller" Users (each, a "Seller").Please review these Terms and Conditions, our Privacy Policy, and all other policies and rules published by SOLAIRE ("Other Policies"), including those located on FAQ page, before you begin using SOLAIRE because the Terms, Privacy Policy, and Other Policies create a legal agreement between you and SOLAIRE. By using SOLAIRE, you accept and agree to be bound and abide by these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Other Policies, each of which are incorporated herein by reference. If you do not agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, or our Other Policies you are not allowed to, and you must not, access or use SOLAIRE.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION: WHEN YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND SOLAIRE THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY THE ARBITRATION GENERALLY AND ARBITRATION AGREEMENT SECTION BELOW FOR DETAILS REGARDING ARBITRATION. HOWEVER, IF YOU ARE A RESIDENT OF A JURISDICTION WHERE APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS MANDATORY ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES, THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE WILL NOT APPLY TO YOU. BUT THE PROVISIONS OF THE GOVERNING LAW AND JURISDICTION SECTION WILL APPLY INSTEAD. UNLESS YOU OPT OUT OF THE AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE, (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 SOLAIRE
SOLAIRE is a platform that allows users to offer, sell, and buy goods and services in various geographic locations using a variety of pricing formats. SOLAIRE is not a party to contracts for sale between third-party sellers and buyers, nor is SOLAIRE a traditional auctioneer.Any guidance SOLAIRE provides as part of our Services, such as pricing, shipping, listing, and sourcing is solely informational and you may decide to follow it or not. We may help facilitate the resolution of disputes between buyers and sellers but the ultimate responsibility lies on buyers and sellers. Unless otherwise expressly provided, SOLAIRE 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.
SOLAIRE is a platform accessible via website and mobile application (cumulatively, the "App") that connects Buyers and Sellers of certain products (an "Item"), that can result in a purchase of an Item (a "Transaction"). The App also facilitates interactions between Buyers and Sellers to allow individuals to bid on, purchase, trade, and sell non-fungible tokens (the "NFTs") as the digital certification of a physical item. For the avoidance of doubt, reference to "Items" throughout these Terms does include NFTs as they assist in the transfer of the physical item. We provide more in-depth information on registering to use the App and Transactions in the sections below. In offering the App, SOLAIRE acts as an intermediary platform provider to allow users to communicate and connect with each other in connection with the sale and purchase of Items and NFTs. We use third party companies to process payments (the "Payment Processor") by Buyers and to payout funds to Sellers and Buyers and Sellers will be subject to and must comply with the Payment Processor's terms and conditions. To the extent we accept, hold or transmit funds in connection with a listing, we do so through the Payment Processor. SOLAIRE is not involved in the creation of any Items nor does it directly sell or buy any Items, take title or possession of any Items (with the exception of temporary possession as requested or required to fulfill Verification Opt-Ins), or take responsibility for any Items in transit (including any shipment or handling of Items), or ensure the performance of any Items. Buyers are solely responsible for the purchase of and payment for Items that may be available on or through the App and resolving any issues related to the Items. Sellers are solely responsible for all listings of the Items and SOLAIRE is not responsible for any descriptions, photographs, assurances of quality or performance of any Items, or otherwise. Except where prohibited by applicable law, SOLAIRE disclaims any responsibility, duties, and liability arising from, related to, or connected with the Items.
SOLAIRE IS A PLATFORM. SOLAIRE FACILITATES TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN THE BUYER AND SELLER ON THE APP BUT IS NOT A PARTY TO ANY AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE BUYER AND SELLER OF ITEMS OR NFTS OR BETWEEN ANY USERS, UNLESS SOLAIRE IS THE SELLER OF THE ITEM AND ITS ASSOCAITED NFT.FOR NFT-FACILITATED TRANSACTIONS, YOU BEAR FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR VERIFYING THE IDENTITY, LEGITIMACY, AND AUTHENTICITY OF THE NFTS YOU PURCHASE THROUGH THE APP. NOTWITHSTANDING INDICATORS AND MESSAGES THAT SUGGEST VERIFICATION, SOLAIRE MAKES NO CLAIMS ABOUT THE IDENTITY, LEGITIMACY, OR AUTHENTICITY OF NFTS ON THE APP.YOU SHOULD PROTECT YOURSELF AT ALL TIMES, USE YOUR BEST JUDGMENT AND TAKE GREAT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN MEETING OR INTERACTING WITH OTHER USERS, WHETHER ON THE APP OR IN PERSON. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR SAFETY AND ANY INTERACTION YOU HAVE WITH ANY OTHER USER.

19. Pricing
At this time, it is free to create an Account and use the App. However, Sellers are required to pay fees related to Transactions. These fees are outlined on our FAQ which may be updated or amended from time to time. Due to the presence of these potential fees, Users may be required, upon registering their Account, to enter a desired payment method as prompted ("Payment Method").You authorize SOLAIRE and/or its Billing Agent to bill you in a manner consistent with its fee structure as indicated. Fees and charges that are due as a result of a Transaction are automatically billed to your Payment Method upon a Transaction.
20. Current Payment Information
You must provide SOLAIRE with current payment information upon first resale listing, change of payment information, and at SOLAIRE 's request. You are solely responsible for maintaining and updating your payment information. SOLAIRE is not liable for any non-sufficient funds or other charges incurred by you as a result of such attempts to charge, and/or place holds on, your Payment Method.
21. Billing Authorization
The following shall apply if you sign up for an Account:
- You authorize SOLAIRE and/or any other company that bills for products or services, or acts as billing agent for SOLAIRE ("Billing Agent") to charge and/or place a hold on your Payment Method for any charges or fees related to your use of the App.
- You authorize SOLAIRE and/or Billing Agent to charge and/or place a hold on your Payment Method for any charges related to your use of the App.
- You authorize the party that issued your Payment Method to pay any amounts described herein without requiring a signed receipt, and you agree that your acceptance of these Terms is authorization to the issuer to pay all such amounts.
- You authorize SOLAIRE and/or its Billing Agent to continue to attempt to charge your Payment Method for all amounts described herein, or any portion thereof, until such amounts are paid in full.
If the Payment Method on file is declined or otherwise rejected for any fee or membership charge, the User shall have 7 days to provide updated information and payment. Failure to cure the within the 7-day grace period may, at SOLAIRE's sole discretion, result in termination of the transaction without a refund. If a User wishes to continue with a subsequent sale after the failure to pay a fee, they will be required to satisfy any debts owed to another User or to SOLAIRE before a new transaction can be attempted.
22. Transactions
Sellers may list an Item for sale in the App. By listing an Item in the App, Sellers create a binding offer to sell that particular Item at a specified price ("Listing Price"). When a Listing Price aligns with a Buyer's specified buying price (an "Offer"), the App processes an automatic purchase Transaction. Buyer's Payment Method is immediately charged the total amount of the Transaction, which includes the purchase price plus all applicable fees. Upon the occurrence of a Transaction, Seller ships the Item to Buyer at the seller’s own cost. Within 30 days of the Buyer's receipt of the Item(s) or upon Buyer’s confirmation of the order (whichever is sooner), the applicable purchase price, less any applicable fees and royalties payable by the Seller, will be transferred to the Seller via the Payment Processor (a "Payout Transaction"). The amounts available for Payout Transactions may be reflected on the App as the Seller's SOLAIRE Account Balance. It is your responsibility to ensure that all information provided is accurate for a proper transfer. SOLAIRE may be unable to recover money transferred to an improper account based on the information provided by Users. Seller shall be responsible for the cost of fees charged by the Payment Processor for transfers, and Seller should review the Payment Processor's terms and services as rates are subject to change and beyond the control of SOLAIRE. Sellers will be subject to and must comply with Payment Processor's terms and conditions.
23. Bidding, Buying and Conditions of Sale
The rules for how bids are accepted, bid increments, bid retraction and cancellation, the conditions the Buyer must meet to purchase an item, as well as the specific conditions of sale change for each Auction at the sole discretion of the Seller. Seller acts as an auctioneer and makes the sole, final determination concerning bidding on the Item, the sale of the Item, and the resolution of any disputes; provided that SOLAIRE reserves the right to interfere an Auction if it determines in its reasonable discretion that a bid was made in error.
24. Seller Responsibilities for Item Transactions:
A Transaction occurs when a Listing Price and an Offer align, or the highest bidding of an auction. Upon a Transaction, Sellers are responsible to ship the Item in accordance with SOLAIRE’S policy, which is subject to change, and is available at all times on the FAQ.
Sellers are responsible for the accuracy of an Item's description. Sellers are required to ensure that the Item matches exactly the image that is displayed on the App, and that the described condition of the Item is a true and accurate description of the condition of the Item.
SOLAIRE has no obligation to return Items that do not conform to the Seller's description, and Seller is responsible for any fees associated with any return or disposal of the Item(s). SOLAIRE has no obligation to return any Item that is deemed counterfeit, unauthentic, stolen, unauthorized, b-grade, or similar, but rather, SOLAIRE may report those Items over to the proper authorities, and Seller is responsible for any fees associated with this action.
24. Buyer Responsibilities for Item Transactions:
When a Buyer places an Offer or bids for an auction, the Buyer is responsible for the completion of payment of the Transaction amount, including all additional fees and Taxes. More information regarding fees and Taxes can be found in our FAQ. Upon a Transaction, a Buyer authorizes SOLAIRE to charge Buyer's Payment Method. Buyer is responsible for updating Payment Method information as necessary to ensure sufficient funds and accurate information that will allow the satisfaction of payment obligations arising from a Transaction.
25. SOLAIRE Responsibilities for Item Transactions
Seller will ship the Item directly to the Buyer at Seller’s own expense. SOLAIRE, through the Payment Processor, will issue payment to Seller within a number of days indicated on the FAQ of the date of Buyer's confirmation of the order or within 30 days of the item’s delivery – whichever one is sooner. In the event that a Buyer disputes the Item for any reason of which cannot be resolved directly with the Seller, SOLAIRE may, at its sole discretion, delay the distribution of payment, request the Item be returned to the Seller, or issue a refund to the Buyer. This list of actions is meant to be illustrative rather than exhaustive.

Except as prohibited by law and subject to any right you have to bring a claim against SOLAIRE in small claims court in the county or province in which you reside, or in Delaware, USA, you agree and acknowledge that the exclusive means for resolving any dispute or claim arising from the Terms or your use of the App ("Dispute") shall be binding, individual arbitration and not in a class, representative or consolidated action or proceeding. Any action to enforce an arbitration decision, including any proceeding to confirm, modify, or vacate an arbitration decision, may be commenced in any court of competent jurisdiction, pursuant to the Governing Law and Jurisdiction section below. As limited exceptions, you and SOLAIRE may seek to resolve a Dispute in small claims court if it qualifies; and (ii) you and SOLAIRE each retain the right to seek injunctive, interlocutory or other equitable relief from a court to prevent (or enjoin) the infringement, passing off or misappropriation of your or our intellectual property rights. Subject to the foregoing, the arbitrator shall determine all issues of liability on the merits of any claim asserted by either party and may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. To the extent that you or we prevail on a claim and seek public injunctive relief (that is, injunctive relief that has the primary purpose and effect of prohibiting unlawful acts that threaten future injury to the public), the entitlement to and extent of such relief must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration. The parties agree that litigation of any issues of public injunctive relief shall be stayed pending the outcome of the merits of any individual claims in arbitration.
You can decline the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement within 30 days of accepting these Terms by contacting SOLAIRE directly. Your opt out email must include your name and a statement manifesting your intent to opt out of the arbitration provisions of this Arbitration Agreement.
By agreeing to arbitration under the Rules (as defined below), you agree that the arbitrator, and not any federal, provincial or state, or local court or agency, shall have the exclusive power to rule on the interpretation, applicability, and enforceability of the Arbitration Agreement, as well as on all substantive and procedural claims involved in the Dispute.
All arbitration shall be conducted by a neutral arbitrator under the Consumer Arbitration Rules ("Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"). Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA Rules, and we won't seek to recover the administration and arbitrator fees we are responsible for paying, unless the arbitrator finds your Dispute frivolous. If we prevail in arbitration, we'll pay all of our legal fees and costs and won't seek to recover them from you. If you prevail in arbitration, you will be entitled to an award of legal fees and expenses to the extent provided under applicable law. Subject to the foregoing, each party will be solely responsible for any and all fees incurred by such party in connection with the arbitration.
Unless you exercise your right to an oral hearing, arbitration shall be conducted by written submissions. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your claims or disputes to SOLAIRE at the address specified in the Contact Information section of these Terms. If we begin arbitration proceedings against you, we will provide you notice using your User Information. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules, except as provided in this Arbitration Agreement. The AAA's Rules and filing instructions are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.
YOU AND SOLAIRE AGREE: (I) THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING AND (II) IF THE PARTIES' DISPUTE IS RESOLVED THROUGH ARBITRATION, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE ANOTHER PERSON'S CLAIMS WITH YOUR CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING ("CLASS ACTION WAIVER"). If this specific Class Action Waiver is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Dispute Resolution section shall be null and void. Except as set forth herein, if any term or provision of this Arbitration Agreement is held invalid or unenforceable, such term or provision shall be severed from this Arbitration Agreement, and the remainder of the terms and provisions shall remain in full force and effect.
