Terms of Service

Effective October 1, 2026. Version 2026-10-02f.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are an agreement between you and (_______________), a Texas company ("BidMaster60", "we", "us"), which operates www.bidmaster60.com and its services (the "Service"). By creating an account or using the Service you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you use the Service for an organization, you agree for that organization and confirm you are authorized to do so.

1. Who may use BidMaster60

You must be at least 18 years old and a U.S. person (a U.S. citizen, a U.S. lawful permanent resident, or a protected individual under 8 U.S.C. 1324b(a)(3)). Each account is for one person. You may not share your sign-in or let anyone else use your account. We review every new account, and we check each person and organization against U.S. Government export screening lists when the account is created and regularly afterward. We may approve, decline, suspend or close any account at our discretion.

2. Your account

You must give accurate information and keep it current. You are responsible for everything done with your account and for keeping your password and sign-in codes private. Tell us right away at admin@bidmaster60.com if you think someone else has used your account.

3. Fees and payment

The Service is paid. By creating an account you agree to pay the following fees, plus any applicable taxes:

Free trial. Each company may have one free 7-day trial. It starts when a BidMaster60 administrator approves the first account from that company, and people from the same company whose accounts are approved while it is running share the days that are left. Whether an account or a company gets a trial is at our discretion, and we may end a trial at any time. A trial gives access to the Service except the Auction House, ends automatically, and does not start a membership or charge you. During a trial the Service shows demonstration helicopters, one in My Fleet and one in My Bids, whose records are invented and do not describe any real aircraft; you cannot add helicopters or records of your own. You may enter your own prices, parts, turnaround times and other settings during a trial; they are kept, and the demonstration helicopters are removed, when a membership starts. To add your own helicopters, or to keep using the Service after a trial, you must start a paid membership. Memberships are per person; a Corporate Membership covers the people of one company.

You pay by credit card, debit card or bank account through our payment processor. You authorize us and our payment processor to charge your chosen payment method for each fee when it is due, including each monthly renewal, until you cancel. We do not store full card or bank account numbers; our payment processor does.

If a payment fails, we may retry it and may suspend your access, your listings or both until it is paid. Unpaid amounts remain owed. We may change fees by giving you at least 30 days' notice by email; the new fees apply from your next billing date after the notice period. You can cancel your subscription at any time from your account or by emailing us; cancellation stops future renewals, and you keep access until the end of the month already paid for.

4. No refunds

All fees are final and non-refundable. We do not give refunds or credits for membership fees (monthly, yearly or corporate), including partial months or years, switching plans, unused time, or accounts that are suspended or closed. Payment terms for the Auction House, including its fees, will be announced when it releases.

5. Auctions listed on BidMaster60

If you list an aircraft or items for auction on BidMaster60, you confirm that you own them or are authorized to sell them, that your description and records are accurate and complete to the best of your knowledge, and that the sale complies with all laws, including export control laws. Payment terms for listing and selling in the Auction House will be announced when it releases. Buyers and sellers are responsible for completing the sale, title transfer, payment between them, transport and any required export authorizations. BidMaster60 is not a party to the sale unless we agree otherwise in writing.

6. Estimates, not advice

The Service summarizes aircraft records and calculates values, maximum bids, turnaround estimates and financial analyses from the records and from prices, rates and other inputs that you enter. These are estimates for your information only. They are not financial, investment, legal, tax or airworthiness advice, and they are not an inspection or appraisal of any aircraft. Records may be incomplete, out of date or wrong. You are responsible for your own due diligence, for having qualified personnel inspect any aircraft, and for every bid, purchase and sale decision you make.

7. Third-party auctions and data

BidMaster60 is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting for the U.S. Government, any of its agencies, or any third-party auction website. Information shown from an Auction Link is copied from the public listing and its attachments when you use the Service and may change or be out of date. Bidding on a third-party auction happens on that website and under its terms, not ours.

8. Export control and Controlled Unclassified Information

The Service contains technical data and records that may be controlled under the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR) or the Export Administration Regulations (EAR), and records marked as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). You agree to comply with all U.S. export control and sanctions laws; not to access the Service from, or export, release or disclose any of its content to, any foreign person, country or party that is not authorized to receive it; and to handle CUI only as permitted by the markings and applicable rules. We may screen users, block access from outside the United States, and suspend accounts to comply with these laws. We keep a record of which aircraft records each account receives and opens.

Handling rules for controlled records

Aircraft records on the Service may be CUI or export controlled. Pages that show them carry a Controlled records notice. When you use them, you agree to these rules:

• Who may see them. Only you, and people in your organization who are U.S. persons, are authorized to receive them, and need them for their work. Do not share your sign-in.
• Where you view them. Use a device your organization controls. Do not view them where people who are not authorized can see the screen, and do not sign in from outside the United States.
• Copies. A Profit analysis PDF, a printout, a screenshot or a spreadsheet made from the records is controlled the same way. Keep its marking, store it only on systems your organization controls, and do not send it by personal email or messaging.
• Other online services. Do not paste or upload records into another online service unless your organization has approved that service for this kind of information.
• When you are done. Delete or shred copies you no longer need.
• What you upload. Upload only records you are allowed to hold and share. Leave their markings in place. Never upload classified information; the Service is not approved for it.
• If something goes wrong. If records were seen, sent or taken by someone who is not authorized, or you think they may have been, tell us promptly at admin@bidmaster60.com.

What we do: we remove personal names from stored records, we do not store the page text of records, we delete a listing's records PDFs once the listing is verified or declined, we check every account against U.S. Government export screening lists, and we keep a record of who opens which records.

9. Your content

You keep ownership of the records, photos, prices, notes and other content you add ("Your Content"). You give us permission to store, process and display Your Content to provide the Service to you. You confirm you have the right to upload it and that doing so does not break any law or anyone else's rights. Your saved prices, bids, fleet and settings are private to your account, or, once you are verified as part of a company on BidMaster60, shared with the other verified members of that company. Company owners and administrators verify who joins a company; you are responsible for keeping your company code private. Aircraft records pulled from a public Auction Link may be shared with other users who look at the same auction.

10. Acceptable use

You may not: copy, resell or redistribute the Service or its data; use automated tools to scrape or overload it; try to get around its security, payment or access controls; reverse engineer it; upload anything unlawful, harmful or that you do not have the right to share; or use the Service to break any law.

11. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or close your account, with or without notice, if you break these Terms, do not pay, create a legal or export control risk, or if required by law. You may close your account at any time. Sections 4, 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, 14 and 15 continue after your account is closed.

12. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE". TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE OR ANY RECORDS, VALUES OR ESTIMATES ARE COMPLETE, ACCURATE, CURRENT OR UNINTERRUPTED.

13. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED BY LAW, WE ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST SALES, BIDS OR DATA, ARISING FROM THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS IS LIMITED TO THE FEES YOU PAID US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM.

14. Indemnity

You will defend and indemnify (_______________) and its owners, employees and agents against any claims, losses and costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Service, Your Content, your auctions and sales, or your breach of these Terms or of any law.

15. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Any dispute will be brought only in the state or federal courts located in Texas, and you consent to their jurisdiction.

16. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms. If a change is material we will tell you by email or on the site, and you will be asked to accept the new version the next time you sign in. If you do not accept it, you may close your account.
