We will do our best to provide you with the information you need to make your own decisions about compliance with applicable U.S. tax laws. However, Trolley is not liable for your compliance with applicable tax obligations determined by the IRS or governmental authorities. If you still have questions after reviewing the tax information provided by Trolley and / or the IRS, you should contact your own tax, legal and/or accounting advisor prior to using the US Tax Product. The disclaimers in this paragraph apply equally to you as a Merchant or your Recipients.

Trolley shall in no way be liable to you or any third party (including but not limited to any tax authority or a Recipient) for any losses or penalties, pecuniary or otherwise, arising from a Recipient entering inaccurate or false information, whether purposefully or not, or misrepresenting their situation in any manner.
Information regarding tax withholding rates calculated by Trolley and provided to you is further dependant on your specific business circumstances and tax form settings you provide to Trolley, as well as additional information included but not limited to the income type provided for in a payment to a Recipient. Trolley shall in no way be liable to you or any third party (including but not limited to any taxation authority or a Recipient) for any losses or penalties, pecuniary or otherwise, arising from your errors or misrepresentations with regards to your settings, circumstances or any other information provided to Trolley, whether made purposefully or not.
Trolley shall respect the applicable IRS e-file rules and requirements to a Transmitter. Trolley shall ensure the security of your Recipients information from unauthorized disclosure, use and destruction. Trolley cannot be held liable for any breach of security of taxpayer information caused by you, your Recipients or the IRS.
Trolley shall respect the Terms of Agreement of the Program provided by the IRS.

You are solely responsible for remitting any amounts owed by you to the IRS or other governmental authority in a timely fashion according to IRS rules and regulations:

g. Additional Terms
