Paypal Update: Amendment to the PayPal User Agreement Effective Date:August 19, 2009
Paypal Updates
Amendment to the PayPal User Agreement
Effective Date: August 19, 2009
Beginning August 19, 2009 PayPal user agreement is being amended as follows:
1.
We are revising Section 8 of the User Agreement for two reasons:
1.
To show the fees in a clearer manner without a substantial change, and
2.
To insert the following:
“In some instances, personal transaction pricing may not be available, the transaction will be considered a commercial transaction and the commercial transaction fees shall apply. This may occur on non-PayPal websites that offer you the ability to send a payment from your PayPal account.
Personal transactions are always available when you go to our website, log in to your Account, click the “Send Money” tab, and select “Personal” when you send the money.”
2.
We are revising Sections 10.1 and 10.2 of the User Agreement. The revised section will read as follows:
1.
“10.1 Your Liability. You are responsible for all Reversals, Chargebacks, Claims, fees, fines, penalties and other liability incurred by PayPal, a PayPal User, or a third party caused by or arising out of your breach of this Agreement, and/or your use of the Services.
1.
Liability for PayPal Buyer Protection Claims, and Buyer Complaint Policy Claims. If PayPal makes a final decision that you lose a Claim filed directly with PayPal, you will be required to reimburse PayPal for your liability. Your liability will include the full purchase price of the item and original shipping cost (and in some cases, you may not receive the item back). PayPal Seller Protection may cover your liability, see section 11 below.
2.
Liability for claims filed directly with eBay under eBay’s resolution process.If you are an eBay seller, eBay requires that you comply with their resolution process. As such, you have provided eBay with permission to make a final decision on a claim that a buyer files against you directly with eBay. If eBay makes a final decision that you lose a claim, you agree to allow PayPal to remove funds from your PayPal Account in order to reimburse eBay for your liability. Seller Protection does not cover claims filed with eBay.
3.
Opt-Out. If you do not want to allow PayPal to reimburse eBay for your liability, you may opt-out by calling eBay at 1-866-643-3727. Your opt-out will be effective within 3 Business Days. If you opt-out then eBay will not use your PayPal Account to recover amounts that you owe due to an eBay claim that you lost. This opt-out will not affect other amounts that you pay to eBay using your PayPal Account (such as your eBay fees).
10.2 Reimbursement for Your Liability. In the event that you are liable for any amounts owed to PayPal, PayPal may immediately remove such amounts from your Balance. If you do not have a Balance that is sufficient to cover your liability, your Account will have a negative Balance and you will be required to immediately add funds to your Balance to eliminate the negative Balance. If you do not do so, PayPal may engage in collection efforts to recover such amounts from you.”
3.
We are revising Section 10.5 of the User Agreement to allow PayPal to place reserves on Personal Accounts that are receiving Commercial Transactions.
4.
The PayPal Credit definition in section 15 will be expanded to include Bill Me Later. |
