Terms of Service

You may stop using the Service at any time, and may ask for your account to be deleted. Deleting an account is permanent: it removes the account, its advertisements and its media, and it forfeits any unused prepaid advertising balance, which is prepaid value for Roesas advertising rather than money held on your behalf.

Roesas may terminate or restrict your access to the Service, or terminate an advertisement, in accordance with section 10.

Certain records survive termination where Roesas is required or permitted to keep them, including moderation and enforcement records, financial records, and evidence of agreements that were signed. Where it is appropriate and practicable, the link between such a record and your account is removed, so what remains is a record of what was done rather than a record about you. Some records necessarily keep identifying information. A signed agreement, for example, is evidence of who signed it: it retains the name held at signing and the signature given, because a record of a signature by nobody is not evidence of anything. The Privacy Policy explains what is kept, and why.

Sections 6, 7 (as to the licence necessary for any retained copy), 8, 12, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 and 26 survive termination of these Terms, along with any other provision that by its nature is intended to survive.

Roesas may revise these Terms. The current version is always the one published on this page, with the date it was last updated shown at the foot of it. Continuing to use the Service after a revision means accepting the revised Terms.

Where a revision is material, Roesas will take reasonable steps to bring it to the attention of account holders.

These Terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to the Service, are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules.

This does not displace a law that applies to you and cannot be contracted out of. Where the mandatory law of the place you live gives you rights or a forum that this section cannot lawfully remove, that law applies and this section yields to it.

Individual arbitration

Except for the matters carved out below, you and Roesas each agree that any dispute between us will be resolved by final and binding individual arbitration rather than in court, before one neutral arbitrator, administered by the American Arbitration Association under its rules then in effect. The arbitrator decides the dispute; a court does not.

The obligation is mutual: it binds Roesas exactly as it binds you.

To the maximum extent enforceable, disputes are brought individually and not as a class. You and Roesas each waive any right to bring or participate in a class action, a class arbitration, a collective action, or a representative proceeding, and the arbitrator may not consolidate or preside over any proceeding brought on behalf of others. Where a court or arbitrator holds this waiver unenforceable as to a particular claim, that claim is severed and proceeds in court, and the remainder continues in arbitration.

What arbitration does not cover

• A claim that may be brought in a small-claims court, where it qualifies and is brought individually.
• An application for an injunction or other equitable relief, including to stop unauthorised use of the Service or misuse of intellectual property.
• A proceeding to protect or enforce intellectual-property rights.
• A proceeding to compel arbitration, or to confirm, vacate or enforce an arbitral award.
• Any matter that applicable law does not permit to be arbitrated.

Where a proceeding is permitted in court under this section, you and Roesas submit to the courts located in Miami-Dade County, Florida, subject to any mandatory right you have to bring proceedings where you live.

Arbitration does not remove a right that the law makes non-waivable. It changes where a dispute is heard, not what the law entitles you to. Nothing in this section limits a public enforcement authority, and nothing in it purports to waive a statutory right that cannot lawfully be waived. Where you deal with Roesas as a consumer rather than in the course of a business, any consumer-protection rule that applies to arbitration applies here.

If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, it is severed or limited to the minimum extent necessary and the rest remains in force.

A failure or delay by Roesas in enforcing any provision is not a waiver of it. Allowing something once does not create an obligation to allow it again.

These Terms, together with the policies incorporated in section 9 and any advertisement-specific agreement you have signed, are the entire agreement between you and Roesas about the Service, and replace any earlier understanding about it.

Where you have signed an advertisement-specific agreement, that agreement states how it interacts with the policies incorporated by these Terms: an incorporated policy that conflicts with it gives way to it, in respect of the advertisement that agreement covers. Outside that, these Terms and the policies incorporated in section 9 apply.

You may not assign or transfer your rights under these Terms. Roesas may assign them to an affiliate, or in connection with a merger, acquisition or sale of assets.

You agree that Roesas may communicate with you electronically, and that electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement that a communication be in writing.

Where you sign an agreement electronically (including by typing your name as a signature), you agree that it has the same effect as a handwritten signature, and that the record Roesas keeps of it is evidence of the agreement. What that record contains is described in the Privacy Policy.

If you have an account, your message centre reaches a person. See the contact page. It is the support channel for the Service.

For a privacy or data request, use the privacy request form. It needs no account. That route is for privacy and data requests only; it is not a general enquiries address, and sending something else there delays it.

Formal legal notices to Roesas should be sent to Roesas Operations LLC at roesas.ad.services@gmail.com.

Roesas does not publish a general enquiries address. That address is for legal notices; support goes through the message centre, and privacy requests through the form above.

Email sent by Roesas comes from an unmonitored address; replying to it does not reach anybody.
