Terms of Service Agreement
(Last Modified on 05/22/08)
 
Welcome, we are glad you have decided to make use our services. We look forward to your involvement with our site. Before you begin delving into the services and content available on our site, please take a moment to review these Terms of Services ("TERMS" or the "AGREEMENT"). These Terms serve as a binding agreement between you and our parent company, Bisart Studios (“BISART”, “WE”, or “US”). It is important that you understand both the benefits we provide as well as our limitations.
 
This AGREEMENT applies to the self service slide show service(s) (“SERVICES” or “SERVICE”) delivered through this web site under various brands (domain names) including but not limited to VirtuallyShow, RealtyShows, BisartTours, RemoteTours and Bisart (“OUR WEBSITE”).
 
Our SERVICES are designed for creating SHOWS. SHOWS are the content that is created by a user from self captured images; digital video urls; property information; agent photo; company logo; agent info; panoramic tours; and floor plans of residential and/or commerical real estate.


1. Acceptance of Terms

If you agree to these TERMS without limitation or qualification and wish to use our SERVICES, please click on the "I Agree" button during the registration process. If you do not agree to these Terms then do not click on the Agree button and do NOT use this web site. By using our web site, you agree to the TERMS. These TERMS may be updated from time to time without notification. Please reference this site prior to each use for any changes or updates. By using OUR WEBSITE, you agree that each visit you make will be subject to the then-current Terms.

 
Commencing on the date on which you initiate membership or trial membership, you will have use of OUR SERVICES pursuant to these TERMS. The SERVICES shall continue until the SERVICES are terminated and/or canceled by US, as described in the TERMS, or WE cease to offer the SERVICES to the general public.


2. Age Restriction

For purposes of identification, billing and marketing, you must provide accurate, complete, and updated information to register for use of the SERVICES, including your legal name, address, telephone number(s), email address, and applicable payment data (for example, a credit card number and expiration date).


3. Intended Use

Our SERVICES are designed for creating SHOWS. This is an end-client product, and these SERVICES may NOT be resold by or to any third party without Bisart’s prior written consent. As a condition of your use of OUR WEBSITE, you will not use OUR WEBSITE, or any Bisart product or service for any purpose that is unlawful or prohibited by these Terms. You will not use OUR WEBSITE or any Bisart product or service in any manner that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair OUR WEBSITE or restrict, inhibit or otherwise interfere with any other party's use and enjoyment of OUR WEBSITE or any Bisart product or service, including, but not limited to, uploading files that contain viruses, Trojan horses, worms, time bombs, corrupted files, or any other similar software or programs that may interrupt, limit or damage the operation of another's computer or property. You will not attempt to gain unauthorized access through hacking, password mining, or any other means to OUR WEBSITE, other accounts with Bisart, other Bisart Slide Shows, or the computer systems or networks connected to OUR WEBSITE.

Your membership account can be cancelled at any time by calling 800-603-7469. You understand that OUR SERVICE is currently offered free of a monthly subscription charge. While it is our intent to continue offering OUR SERVICE without a monthly subscription, we reserve the right to change this term at anytime and without notice. Should your membership be terminated, the client software will no longer function and the online account and SHOWS will not be accessible. Any SHOWS and account information will be retained for 90 days after the termination or cancellation of an account.

Your account is for your personal use only. Do not provide your sign-on and password to any third party. Bisart will not be liable for any billing disputes, claims, or demands of any kind that resulted directly or indirectly from third party access.

This SERVICE is for a single agent and permits one agent to create an unlimited number of SHOWS for their own personal listings, SHOWS for their buyers, or community shows. The SHOWS will be branded to the agent with the inclusion of their individual photo and their individual name in their account to display in the contact information feature. Nothing in the SHOWS’s features can indicate that this account represents more than one person. Additionally words such as Team, Group, Crew, or similar terms which generally indicate that multiple persons are subscribed to this account are not acceptable in branding a single agent account. Posting of SHOWS other than the agent's own SHOWS (i.e. office shows, shows for other agents, multiple agent teams, etc.) shall be cause for immediate cancellation of this agreement.

If you wish to use this account for an agent team, then you must notify us via email at members@virtuallyshow.com. Then you will be allowed to upload an agent team photo and put an agent team email address. Posting of SHOWS other than the agent team's own SHOWS (i.e. office shows, shows for other agents, etc.) shall be cause for immediate cancellation of this agreement.
