18. VIOLATION OF TERMS AND LIQUIDATED DAMAGES

Please report any violations of the Terms by flagging the posting(s) for review, or mail us info@viuclassifiedads.com.

Our failure to act with respect to a breach by you or others does not waive our right to act with respect to subsequent or similar breaches.

You understand and agree that, because damages are often difficult to quantify, if it becomes necessary for VIUCADs to pursue legal action to enforce these Terms, you will be liable to pay VIUCADs the following amounts as liquidated damages, which you accept as reasonable estimates of VIUCADs damages for the specified breaches of these Terms:

a. If you post a listing and/or a message that (1) impersonates any person or entity; (2) falsely states or otherwise misrepresents your affiliation with a person or entity; or (3) that includes personal or identifying information about another person without that person's explicit consent, you agree to pay VIUCADs one thousand dollars ($1,500) for each such message. This provision does not apply to Content that constitutes lawful non-deceptive parody of public figures.

b. If VIUCADs establishes limits on the frequency with which you may access the Service, or terminates your access to or use of the Service, you agree to pay VIUCADs one hundred dollars ($200) for each listing and/or message posted in excess of such limits or for each day on which you access VIUCADs in excess of such limits, whichever is higher.

c. If you send unsolicited email advertisements to VIUCADs email addresses or through VIUCADs computer systems, you agree to pay VIUCADs twenty five dollars ($50) for each such email.

d. If you post Content in violation of the Terms, other than as described above, you agree to pay VIUCADs one hundred dollars ($100) for each Item of Content posted. In its sole discretion, VIUCADs may elect to issue a warning before assessing damages.

e. If you are a Posting Agent that uses the Service in violation of the Terms, in addition to any liquidated damages under clause (d), you agree to pay VIUCADs one hundred dollars ($100) for each and every Item you post in violation of the Terms. A Posting Agent will also be deemed an agent of the party engaging the Posting Agent to access the Service (the "Principal"), and the Principal (by engaging the Posting Agent in violation of the Terms) agrees to pay VIUCADs an additional one hundred dollars ($100) for each Item posted by the Posting Agent on behalf of the Principal in violation of the Terms.

f. If you aggregate, display, copy, duplicate, reproduce, or otherwise exploit for any purpose any Content (except for your own Content) in violation of these Terms without VIUCADs's express written permission, you agree to pay VIUCADs three thousand dollars ($3,000) for each day on which you engage in such conduct.

g. If you collect personal data about other users for commercial or unlawful purposes, and/or if you make unsolicited contact with anyone for any commercial purpose in violation of these Terms without VIUCADs's express written permission, you agree to pay VIUCADs three thousand dollars ($3,000) for each day on which you engage in such conduct.

Otherwise, you agree to pay VIUCADs's actual damages, to the extent such actual damages can be reasonably calculated.
