SKELBKNT.LT PLATFORM TERMS AND REAL-ESTATE LISTING RULES
Effective from 21 August 2026
1. GENERAL PROVISIONS
1.1. These terms (the “Terms”) govern the use of https://skelbknt.lt and the real-estate listing platform operating on that website (the “Platform”).
1.2. The Platform is operated by MB “Steel Trek”, legal entity code 306950514, VAT identification number LT100020410116, registered office at Partizanų g. 61-806, LT-49282 Kaunas, Lithuania (the “Service Provider”, “we”, “us” or “our”).
1.3. Contact details:
- Email: info@skelbknt.lt;
- Address: Partizanų g. 61-806, LT-49282 Kaunas, Lithuania;
- Telephone: +370 600 50591.
1.4. A “User” is a natural or legal person who visits the Platform, registers an account, publishes or views a Listing, publishes a Real-Estate Search Request or purchases a paid Platform service.
1.5. A “Consumer” is a natural person acting for purposes outside that person's trade, business, craft or profession. A “Business User” is a person acting for purposes relating to that person's trade, business, craft or profession.
1.6. A “Listing” is information submitted by a User to the Platform about real estate offered for sale, rent or otherwise. A “Search Request” is information published by a User about real estate they are looking for.
1.7. By creating an account, publishing a Listing or Search Request, or purchasing a paid service, you confirm that you have read and agree to comply with these Terms. A paid service is also subject to the Listing Pricing Policy and the Service Cancellation and Refund Policy.
1.8. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not register an account, publish content or order paid services.
2. PURPOSE OF THE PLATFORM AND ROLE OF THE SERVICE PROVIDER
2.1. The Platform provides technical means for Users to publish and find real-estate offers and Search Requests. We are not a seller, landlord, buyer, tenant, broker, valuer, lender or intermediary for payments between Users unless we expressly state otherwise in writing in a particular case.
2.2. A real-estate transaction is concluded directly between the relevant Users. Each party to a transaction must independently verify the other party's identity, rights to the property, the property's condition, encumbrances, documents, taxes and any other circumstances relevant to the transaction.
2.3. We do not guarantee that information in a Listing or Search Request is accurate, that a User will enter into a transaction or that any particular outcome will be achieved. This does not limit our obligations to remove illegal content when properly notified of it, or any liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
2.4. If a Listing provider acts for business or professional purposes, that provider must accurately state its status and provide information required by law. Consumer-protection rules generally do not apply to transactions between two private individuals. Where one party to a transaction is a trader, Consumer rights are assessed according to the nature of the particular transaction and applicable law.
3. REGISTRATION AND ACCOUNT
3.1. An account may be created by a natural person aged at least 18 who has legal capacity, or by a legal person acting through a duly authorised representative.
3.2. Registration and account information must be accurate, current and lawfully used. You must not impersonate another person, register an account in another person's name without a lawful basis or use another person's sign-in credentials.
3.3. You are responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials confidential and for activity in your account. Suspected unauthorised access must be reported immediately to info@skelbknt.lt.
3.4. You may sign in using a password, Google sign-in and, if enabled, two-factor authentication. The third-party sign-in service is also subject to its own terms.
3.5. An account may not be sold, transferred or otherwise assigned to another person without our written consent.
4. REQUIREMENTS FOR LISTINGS AND SEARCH REQUESTS
4.1. You may publish only content that you are entitled to publish. A Listing provider must have the right to dispose of the property concerned or lawful authority from its owner to advertise it.
4.2. Information in a Listing or Search Request must be clear, accurate, not misleading and current. You must correctly state the property type, transaction type, location, price, condition, area, material defects and other information required for the selected category.
4.3. Contact details, Listing content, photographs, video and the location information you select become publicly visible. Do not disclose unnecessary personal data, document numbers, bank details, national identification numbers, data concerning minors or other sensitive information.
4.4. You must not publish:
- a non-existent property, a property that is no longer offered, or a description deliberately designed to mislead;
- content that violates the law or another person's property, privacy, copyright, trade-mark or other rights;
- discriminatory, threatening, hateful, pornographic or violent content, or content that promotes fraud;
- malicious code, automated spam, misleading links or unlawful advertising;
- duplicate Listings intended to manipulate visibility or search results artificially;
- another person's contact details or other personal data without a lawful basis.
4.5. If information changes or the property is no longer available, you must promptly update, deactivate or remove the Listing.
4.6. You are responsible for the content you publish and its lawfulness. If requested, you must provide reasonable evidence that you are entitled to advertise the property or use the submitted materials.
5. CONTENT MODERATION AND NOTICES
5.1. We may review content, restrict its visibility, suspend it or remove it if it breaches these Terms or the law, infringes another person's rights, creates a security risk or gives reasonable grounds to suspect fraud.
5.2. When assessing content, we take into account the nature and seriousness of the breach, whether it is repeated, potential harm and the User's explanations. Where required by law, we will give the User the reasons for a decision and information about how to challenge it.
5.3. Potentially illegal content may be reported to info@skelbknt.lt. A notice must identify the specific content by URL, describe the alleged infringement and the circumstances supporting the notice, and include the notifying person's contact details. A person submitting a notice in good faith must not knowingly provide false information.
5.4. A User who disagrees with our moderation decision may submit a reasoned complaint to info@skelbknt.lt within six months. We will review the complaint impartially and notify the User of the outcome by email.
5.5. If there is an immediate threat to personal safety or we receive a lawful request from a competent authority, we may preserve and disclose the necessary data as provided by law.
6. PAID PLATFORM SERVICES
6.1. The paid services are publication of a Listing or extension of its active period. The final price, duration, taxes and material terms are shown before you submit a payment order.
6.2. Payments are processed through SEB Bank Link. A Listing is activated or extended only after reliable confirmation from the bank that payment was successful.
6.3. An unpaid or expired payment order does not create an entitlement to the paid service. Duplicate payments, technical errors and disputed bank confirmations are handled in accordance with the Service Cancellation and Refund Policy.
6.4. Paying for a service does not guarantee any particular number of Listing views or contacts, or a buyer, tenant or transaction outcome.
6.5. A VAT invoice is available in the payment history in your account. VAT is included in the final price shown on the Platform.
6.6. A Consumer's right to withdraw from a distance contract for a paid service, a request to begin the service immediately and the calculation of a proportionate amount are set out in the Service Cancellation and Refund Policy.
7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY
7.1. The Platform's software, structure, graphic elements, marks and content created by us belong to the Service Provider or the relevant licensors. They may not be copied, distributed or used commercially without a lawful basis.
7.2. You retain the rights to the content you submit. By submitting it, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide right to store and process it technically, display it, adapt it for different devices and make it public to the extent necessary to provide the Platform service, moderate the content and resolve lawful disputes.
7.3. This right ends when the content is removed, except for backups, retention required by law and data necessary to investigate an existing dispute or breach.
8. LIABILITY AND SECURITY
8.1. You are responsible for the lawfulness of the information, content and actions you submit, and for damage resulting from your breach of these Terms or the law.
8.2. We apply reasonable technical and organisational security measures but cannot guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. Where reasonably practicable, we will notify Users on the Platform of planned maintenance or significant service interruptions.
8.3. We are not responsible for negotiations or transactions between Users, third-party content or services, or damage resulting from a User's failure to verify the other party or the property documents.
8.4. Nothing in these Terms limits liability for wilful misconduct, gross negligence, injury or loss of life, infringement of a Consumer's statutory rights, or any other liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
9. SUSPENSION OF ACCOUNTS AND SERVICES
9.1. We may temporarily restrict an account or service when necessary to protect the Platform or other Users, investigate a potential breach, comply with a lawful order from an authority or resolve a technical incident.
9.2. An account may be closed for a material or repeated breach of these Terms, fraud, illegal content, attempts to circumvent security measures or payment abuse. Where reasonably possible and not prohibited by law or security considerations, we will give the User an opportunity to explain before a final decision.
9.3. A User may request account closure. Erasure or further retention of data is handled in accordance with the Privacy Policy and statutory obligations.
10. COMPLAINTS AND DISPUTES
10.1. Please first submit a complaint about the Platform or a paid service to info@skelbknt.lt or through the contact form. Include the account email address, order or Listing number and a clear request. We respond to a Consumer's request no later than 14 calendar days after receiving it, unless the law requires a shorter period.
10.2. If a dispute with a Consumer cannot be resolved directly, the Consumer may contact the State Consumer Rights Protection Authority through the Consumer Rights Information System (VTIS, https://vtis.lt), by email at tarnyba@vvtat.lt or at A. Goštauto g. 12, LT-01108 Vilnius. Further information is available at https://vvtat.lrv.lt.
10.3. A User may also bring a claim before a competent court of the Republic of Lithuania. Mandatory consumer-protection and jurisdiction rules of the Consumer's country of residence continue to apply to Consumers.
10.4. These Terms and use of the Platform are governed by the law of the Republic of Lithuania, without prejudice to mandatory legal provisions applicable to a Consumer.
11. CHANGES TO THE TERMS
11.1. We may amend these Terms in response to changes in the law, Platform features, security, pricing or our business model. A new version will be published on the Platform with its effective date.
11.2. We will notify registered Users in advance through the Platform or their account, and by email where required, of material changes. Changes do not apply retroactively to a service already paid for, except where required by law or beneficial to the User.
11.3. If you continue using the Platform after a new version takes effect, you are deemed to have read the updated Terms. Where separate consent is required by law, we will request it separately.
