    The Details.at Name

    It is generally permissible for you to refer to Details.at on your website, in listings or in advertisements in a descriptive manner. For example, you might say, "Check out my antique items on Details.at," or "I sell on Details.at." By the way, Details.at is always spelled "Details.at"; it is never spelled "Details at" or "Details dot At." You should not refer to Details.at in any way that might lead someone to believe that your company or site is sponsored by, affiliated with, or endorsed by Details.at. If you are unsure about a particular use of the Details.at name, write to [email protected]

We generally do not permit the use of the Details.at logo by third parties absent a written license agreement.

    Framing the Details.at Site

    It is not permissible to frame or alter the way in which our web site is viewed. Framing generally means causing third party content to appear above or around the Details.at site.

    Details.at Domain Names

    While it has become very popular to register, use and sell domain names (including on Details.at), it generally is not permissible to own, sell or use a domain name, which contains a trademark owned by another person or company. Details.at owns exclusive trademark rights in the Details.at name in the United States and in many countries internationally. The ownership, use or sale of a domain name, which contains the Details.at name, is not permitted because it is likely to be considered a trademark infringement. We do not give permission to third parties to register domain names containing "Details.at." Also, Details.at auction listings attempting to sell such domains are likely to be ended by Details.at. Certain types of uses of domain names may also subject the owner to additional penalties. Congress recently passed a statute called the Anticybersquatting Consumer Protection Act of 1999

    , which provides for penalties of up to $100,000 against persons who in bad faith and without authorization, use, sell, or offer for sale a domain name which infringes another's trademark. Click here for more information on trademark law.

    Use of Screenshots and Other Details.at Content

    We sometimes permit the use of Details.at screenshots by third parties. However, use of screenshots usually requires a license from Details.at. Please contact [email protected] to inquire about such a license/permission.
