This section describes how we deliver communications to you electronically.
Electronic Delivery of Communications
In order to utilize certain features of our Website or to access certain services we offer, you may be required to create an account. If so, you must agree and consent to receive electronically all communications, agreements, documents, notices and disclosures (collectively, "Communications") that we provide in connection with your LELAND LITTLE AUCTIONS account ("Account") and our business with you. Communications include:
Agreements and policies you agree to (e.g., the terms and conditions of an auction and the Privacy Policy), including updates to those agreements or policies;
Buyer invoices;
Consignor settlement statements; and
Any other bidding, buying, or consignment information.
Notifications regarding any concerns with the Website or personal information collected by us through the Website, including, as required by law in the event that any of the personal information you provided to us is exposed to unauthorized third-parties. In the event of such unauthorized exposure, we expressly reserve the right to provide notice to you electronically via the email address associated with your Account if permitted to do so by law.
We will provide these Communications to you by posting them on the Website and/or by emailing them to you at the primary email address associated with your Account.
System Requirements
In order to view and retain electronic Communications, you will need the following:
Internet access;
A current version of a web browser that we support;
A current version of Adobe Acrobat Reader or another comparable PDF reader;
A valid email address associated with your Account; and
Sufficient storage space to save Communications, or an installed printer.
We will notify you if there are any material changes to the hardware or software needed to receive electronic Communications. By giving your consent you are confirming that you have access to the necessary equipment and are able to receive, open, and print or download a copy of any Communications for your records. You may print or save a copy of the Communications for your records as they may not be accessible online at a later date.
How to Withdraw Your Consent
You may withdraw your consent to receive some or all Communications electronically by following the unsubscribe instructions included in a particular email, writing to us at "Leland Little Auctions, Attn: Electronic Communications, 620 Cornerstone Court, Hillsborough, NC 27278", emailing us at info@lelandlittle.com or calling us at (919) 644-1243. If you fail to provide or if you withdraw your consent to receive Communications electronically, however, we reserve the right to decline approval to bid in our auctions, decline your offer to consign items for sale in our auctions, restrict or deactivate your Account, or charge you additional fees for paper copies.
