IMPORTANT: by accepting
these terms and conditions and entering into a legally binding contract. It is
therefore important that you read these terms and conditions carefully.
If you do not agree to any part of these terms, or if any content of the sites
is illegal in the territory where you currently reside, then please do not
proceed.
Interpretation
Headings do not form part of these terms and conditions and will not affect
their interpretation.
In these terms and conditions, "you" refers to the member and
"we", "us" refers to Atlantis Media Corporation Ltd., a
company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Seychelles, doing
business as SpandexGuys ("the site" or "the sites") which
is a website owned and operated wholly by us and consists of the following
URLs: www.SpandexGuys.com and www.spxg.com
User age warranty & adult content warning
The sites are for adults aged 18 years of age or older. Persons under 18 years,
pretending to be less than 18 years or soliciting persons less than 18 years
will be removed from the sites and further use will be blocked. Those
individuals soliciting persons under the age of 18 years of age will be
reported to relevant law enforcement agencies responsible for their
jurisdiction.
The content of the sites may be of an explicit gay nature and contain sexual
imagery and text. You agree that this type of content does not cause you
offence. We are not liable to remove content that causes you offence though we
will do so if it is in breach of our own content policy.
Further you agree that we are not acting in any
way to send you this information; remember that you are choosing to receive it
by coming to the site and browsing it! Continuing to browse the site and/or
creating a login account to view member only material means that you understand
and accept responsibility for your own actions, thus releasing the creators,
members and contributors of this website's pages and our service provider from
all liability.
Membership fees
All upgrade membership level fees are on either a non-reoccurring 30 day or
three month, six month or one year billing cycle which will not be charged
again after the term expires or a automatically renewing membership of either
1, 3 or 6 month cycles which rebill automatically. The Standard membership fees
are at the rates shown on this site and you may select which level you wish to
participate in. Upgrades are processed securely online via our payment
processor, Verotel, and appear as Vtsup.com Verotel on credit card statements. SpandexGuys.com
reserves the right to cancel any members account if they feel the member has
violated one of the following rules of the site. NO REFUNDS will be given under
any circumstances if any of these terms & conditions is violated here
within.
Recurring memberships
(automatically rebilling)
If you choose a recurring membership we will extend the validity of your
upgrade by a similar term that you originally subscribed to. A one month
membership extends by a month, a three month term extends by three months and a
six month term extends by six months. You can stop the re-billing and subsequent
extension of your account by going to Verotel’s billing website https://www.vtsup.com/en/cancel where
you will be asked to provide a usercode and passcode to identify yourself.
These codes were supplied by email from Verotel at time of your upgrade and are
NOT the same credentials you use to log in to SpandexGuys site. Please note that in order to offer a seamless
transition from one upgrade cycle to the next Verotel will attempt to bill your
card about 24 hours before it is set to expire but due to time zone differences
can add a few hours to that so make sure to cancel at least 48 hours prior to
the expiry date. If in doubt or if you missed something please contact us via
the help desk and we will see what we can do for you.

Password use
On becoming a member you choose your username and password. You must not
disclose your password to anyone and should be aware that we will never ask you
for it other than in logging on to the sites so anyone asking you to produce it
is to be regarded as doing so for malevolent purposes. You are responsible for
all acts done in your account name and therefore for the acts of anyone you
give your password to in breach of these terms and conditions. We have the
ability to monitor the amount of logins as well as how many times you have
signed into the site on any given day. If this policy is abused we reserve the
right to cancel your membership immediately and charge you accordingly for the
misappropriated use of the site.
Reporting site abuses
We ask for your help in maintaining the high standards of the sites and the
communities within them by immediately notifying us of any material or
communications that are in breach of these terms or that are, or appear to be,
illegal. Remember that while the site belongs to us they are also yours to
enjoy.
Privacy policy
Our privacy policy applies to all personal data you submit to us and a complete
review will be added shortly.
Your email address and
full birthday will not be shared with anyone outside the site. Periodic update
e-mails will be sent out to members e-mail address twice a year. Your password
is encrypted and cannot be seen or retrieved by us. In case of loss you need to
reset your password. In the past, your profile could be searched by outside
search engines such as Google, Yahoo, etc. and viewed by people who are not
currently a member of the site or logged in. In order to prevent this from
happening you had (and you still have) the option to make your profile viewable
to friends only. This is done by clicking the settings menu item and then
clicking on the privacy tab. We have disabled public viewing of profiles and
only fellow members who have registered a profile and logged in are able to
view a profile that is not set to be viewed by friends only. This said, some
search engines provide a cached version of the profile page and it might be
possible for people to view your profile page if it had been cached by the
search engines and not been updated by them yet.
Personal use only
Any material on the sites is strictly for personal use and must not under any
circumstance be used by any user for commercial purposes or used in a
defamatory or derogatory manner. Material must not be duplicated in any way for
use outside of the site as this is in breach of international copyright and
intellectual property laws.
Your warranties regarding uploaded materials
You warrant that all material you upload to any of the sites:
- is true, accurate and up-to-date (and you agree to
maintain it as such at all times);
- pictures uploaded depict only you and no one else, or
if another person is shown you have explicit consent from that person or
persons to be shown;
- is your own creation/property or that you have consent
to upload it to the sites and in all cases that uploading the material
does not breach any third party's intellectual property rights;
- is not defamatory, illegal, unlawful, offensive or
discriminatory in any way;
- has been processed by up-to-date virus-checking
software and found to be free of any virus, worm, Trojan or other similar
device or effect that alters or may alter the functioning of any of the
sites or any computer system at any time.
In addition, common
sense prevails and you acknowledge that due to the public nature of the site there
is no way for us to block or otherwise effectively prevent your photos from
being stored or copied onto a visitor’s computer or website. Perceived
preventive actions such as disabling right-click and save functions can be
circumvented and don’t provide protection. Common sense rule applies: if you
don’t want the picture to be saved by a user or used by a visitor then don’t
post it.

actually incurred) us against any costs, claims, liabilities or expenses
