Section 1 – Subscribing to StoreConnect

StoreConnect Subscriptions: You cannot access or use StoreConnect Services unless you have subscribed to StoreConnect in accordance with an order form prepared by us that is executed by you and received by us by any expiry period specified in the order form (Order Form) or you subscribe on a month-to-month basis via an online process approved by us (Online Signup) and you have a current and fully paid up StoreConnect Account. StoreConnect Subscribers with a valid and fully paid up StoreConnect Account have a non-exclusive, non-assignable, non-sublicensable, revocable right to access and use StoreConnect Services in the manner described in the storeconnect documentation. If you do not have a StoreConnect Account you cannot access or use StoreConnect or StoreConnect Services.

Installing StoreConnect: If you install or subscribe to StoreConnect, you will be deemed to have irrevocably represented and warranted to us that: (a) you installed and subscribed to StoreConnect on behalf of and with the authority and consent of the business entity whose Salesforce account you are logged in under at the time of installation; and (c) that you have the authority to bind that business entity to these Terms & Conditions. You and that business entity are jointly and severally liable for any breach of these Terms & Conditions by you or that business entity and in these Terms & Conditions, a reference to “you” is a reference to both you and that business entity.

Term of Your Subscription: Upon expiry of the Subscription Period set out in the Order Form (or during your Online Signup, if applicable) (Initial Subscription Period), your subscription to StoreConnect will automatically renew for subsequent consecutive subscription periods of equivalent length to the Initial Subscription Period (each such period, a Renewal Subscription Period) until and unless either party gives at least 45 days written notice (in the case where you subscribed to StoreConnect pursuant to an Order Form) or at least 30 days written notice (in the case where you subscribed via Online Signup) to the other party of its intention to terminate the subscription prior to the expiry of the Initial Subscription Period or the then current Renewal Subscription Period (as applicable), in which case where such notice is provided, your subscription will terminate upon expiry of the Initial Subscription Period or the then current Renewal Subscription Period, as applicable.

Free Installation Period: You may be eligible to receive a free installation period for your StoreConnect subscription. Your eligibility to receive any free installation period, and the length of the free installation period is at our full discretion. Any free installation period granted to you (if any) will be expressly specified in the Order Form (Free Installation Period) and unless otherwise specified in the Order Form, will only apply immediately after the end of the Initial Subscription Period. After the end of the Initial Subscription Period, during the Free Installation Period, all Shared Success Fees and other fees and charges specified in the Order Form (other than Subscription Fees) will be payable. On expiry of the Free Installation Period, all annual and monthly Subscription Fees in respect of the period following expiry of the Free Installation Period shall again become payable (and all Shared Success Fees and any other fees and charges will continue to be payable) in accordance with the Payment Terms. To avoid any confusion, the Order Form will specify the due dates for payment of the Subscription Fees during the Initial Subscription Period and thereafter, including, where applicable, the due dates after any Free Installation Period. The commencement date of the first Renewal Subscription Period may be adjusted to take into account the Free Installation Period; if so, this will be specified in the Order Form and each subsequent Renewal Subscription Period will commence on the relevant anniversary of that revised commencement date having regard to the length of the Renewal Subscription Period.

The following terms as set out in the Order Form have the following meanings:

“Start Date” means the date on which the Agreement becomes effective.

“End Date” means the date on which the Initial Subscription Period (as that term is defined in the Order Form) expires.

“First Renewal Date” means the date on which your subscription will renew, upon expiry of the Initial Subscription Period, for the first Renewal Subscription Period (taking into account any Free Installation Period, if applicable). .

Eligibility: You may not install or subscribe to StoreConnect unless: (a) you are over the age of 18 and have the capacity to enter into legally binding contracts and have been authorised by any business entity whose Salesforce account you are logged in under at the time of installation to agree to and accept these Terms & Conditions; and (b) have a valid paid or trial Salesforce subscription with a Salesforce Org including at least one Sales Cloud Enterprise licence. Your StoreConnect Subscription does not include any licence or right to use Salesforce. You cannot use or access StoreConnect unless you comply with these Terms & Conditions and you procure a right to use Salesforce under a separate agreement between you and Salesforce.

Account verification: You must ensure that you provide a valid email address to us when installing StoreConnect. The installation key required for you to install StoreConnect will be sent to the email address you provide and we are not responsible for any installation issues as a result of your failure to provide a valid email address. We may reject your subscription on StoreConnect if the email address is not so verified, or where you do not satisfy any of our other StoreConnect Account eligibility criteria. If any of your contact details or other information change, you must promptly update those details in your StoreConnect Account with your up-to-date details and information.

Access Credentials: You must not provide your StoreConnect Account name or password to any person. You are solely responsible for the confidentiality of your username and password and any use of your StoreConnect Account (including unauthorised use). You must immediately notify us if you become aware of any unauthorised use of your StoreConnect Account.

StoreConnect Subscriber plans and Service Charges: You must pay the fees and charges for the plan selected during your installation of StoreConnect (“Service Charges”), plus any applicable taxes. Service Charges are made up of two components – a Subscription Fee and a Shared Success Fee (as defined below). The Subscription Fee is payable on either a monthly or annual basis (depending on the plan you select when subscribing to StoreConnect). Shared Success Fees are payable on a monthly basis for the previous month or, when agreed by us, a prepayment of the Shared Success Fees billed in advance. If you have made a prepayment of the Shared Success Fees, each month, your actual Shared Success Fees will be applied against any amount prepaid and not yet exhausted, until it is exhausted. Should your actual monthly Shared Success Fees at any time exceed the balance of any amount prepaid, you will be required to prepay a new prepaid amount which you must promptly pay (within 14 days of request by us). All prepaid Shared Success Fee charges will be a minimum of $1,000 USD equivalent in your billing currency or the previous 3 months of your actual Shared Success Fee charges, whichever is greater. All Service Charges are payable in the manner specified on our Pricing or as otherwise agreed in writing by you and us (“Payment Terms”). You are responsible for the collection and payment of all taxes that are required to be collected and paid in connection with any transaction that is performed on your eCommerce store.

Shared Success Fee: Each month we will calculate the sum of the fiat currency value of the total orders created through your StoreConnect Account during that month. Any orders or quotes that were placed on your StoreConnect Account via StoreConnect, StoreConnect API or the StoreConnect Point of Sale system that completed checkout, regardless of if payment was received, will count towards this total. For the avoidance of doubt, any orders or quotes made that do not use the StoreConnect, StoreConnect API or the StoreConnect Point of Sale system to complete the checkout or any payment will not be included in this total. If an order was placed on an e-commerce store set up on your StoreConnect Account to allow shoppers to purchase with a combination of points or fiat currency, the total will be calculated using the fiat currency value of the items in the cart that completed checkout on your StoreConnect Account. If any item in a cart that completed checkout via StoreConnect is “points-only” and that item is not also available for purchase in a fiat currency on the same e-commerce store, or the store only provides for points-only purchases, then such item will be converted to a fiat currency value using the applicable Points to Fiat Currency Conversion Rate. If any item in a cart that completed checkout is “points only” and that item may be purchased in a fiat currency on the same store, then such item will be converted to a fiat currency value using the fiat currency value for which that item may be purchased on the same store. The fiat currency value of the total orders created through your StoreConnect Account during that month is then multiplied by the shared success fee percentage of the StoreConnect plan that you are subscribed to, in order to determine the amount of the shared success fee payable by you for that month (Shared Success Fee). Any orders placed via StoreConnect during the month that are duplicates (due to shopper error) and any orders placed via StoreConnect during the month as a result of a verified system error will be excluded from the order total calculation for that month (each, an Inapplicable Order). To remove a detected Inapplicable Order from the calculation of the Shared Success Fee you must notify StoreConnect support within 30 days of the Inapplicable Order being placed via StoreConnect. If the Shared Success Fee has already been invoiced to you by the time you notify us of the Inapplicable Order, the subsequent invoice issued to you for a Shared Success Fee will be reduced by the value of the Inapplicable Order.

Points to Fiat Currency Conversion Rate: Should an e-commerce store on StoreConnect at any time offer an item that is only available for purchase on the store using points, then a conversion rate for the purpose of ascribing a fiat currency value to points-only purchases must be agreed between us and you. Such conversion rate shall be agreed between the parties and specified on the Order Form in respect of each fiat currency that you accept in the store. The parties agree to use reasonable endeavours to agree a reasonable conversion rate by reference to the average of a random set of 10 items’ points values (or all the items for sale in the store, if there are less than 10 items offered), divided by those same items’ recommended retail prices when not on sale or subject to discount, to arrive a conversion rate. You agree that each Points to Fiat Currency Conversion Rate shall be reviewed by the parties at least annually and we can request a review of any Points to Fiat Currency Conversion Rate at any time during your Subscription.

Currency: All Services Charges and other fees and charges set out in the Order Form or on our Pricing page are to be paid in the currency specified on the Order Form or on our Pricing page (as applicable). To the extent of any inconsistency between an Order Form that we issue to you and that you execute and return to us, and our Pricing page, the Order Form prevails. Where the Order Form does not specify a currency or you have subscribed via an Online Signup, all amounts are payable to us in United States Dollars (USD). In respect of currency conversions (where applicable): (1) all currency conversions are calculated at the date of billing or invoicing by us, in each case at the relevant rate set out at openexchangerates.org (other than in respect of Shared Success Fees); and (2) conversions in respect of Shared Success Fees will be calculated as per the openexchangerates.org rate applicable at the time that the Shared Success Fees are incurred.

Cap on Subscription Fee and Shared Success Fee Rate Increases: We may increase our Subscription Fees, Shared Success Fee rates and other fees and charges at the commencement of each Renewal Subscription Period. We will not otherwise increase your Subscription Fees or Shared Success Fee rates during the Initial Subscription Period or any then current Renewal Subscription Period. However, if you have subscribed to StoreConnect via an Order Form on one of our standard plans as found on our Pricing Page, and you renew your subscription at the beginning of each Renewal Subscription Period for the same subscription Plan specified in the Order Form, and in each case for a period at least as long as the Initial Subscription Period set out in the Order Form (Fee Cap Conditions), we agree to limit any increase of the Subscription Fees and Shared Success Fee rates at the beginning of each Renewal Subscription Period as follows:

a) the Subscription Fee will be subject to an increase of no more than 5% over the Subscription Fee that was payable in the previous subscription period; and

b) the rates listed in the Order Form in respect of Shared Success Fees (rate per order) will each be limited to an increase of no more than 5% as compared to the rates that were payable in the previous subscription period.*

*You acknowledge that the total monthly Shared Success Fees calculated by multiplying the Shared Success Fees rates per order by the value of the relevant transactions in any month may still be greater than 5%.

In the event that the Fee Cap Conditions are not met, increases in our Subscription Fees, Shared Success Fee rates and other fees and charged at the commencement of each Renewal Subscription Period will:

a) in respect of subscriptions via Order Forms, be subject to negotiation; and

b) in respect of subscriptions via Online Signups, be as specified by us from time to time on our Pricing page at least 30 days in advance.

Non-payment of Service Charges: Failure to pay any Service Charges or other amounts owed by you to us will result in the following actions in increasing escalation: (1) Temporary removal of access to the StoreConnect package and removing your ability to see new orders from your customers arriving; (2) Shutting down of your eCommerce store and removing the ability of your customers to use your website; (3) Deletion of all of your StoreConnect Subscription Data including media, customer & transaction data and all other uploaded information relating to your eCommerce store, except to the extent that we are unable to delete such data under applicable law; (4) Suspension or termination of your StoreConnect Account and legal action to recover any outstanding Service Charges or other amounts owed. If your StoreConnect Subscription Data is deleted or your StoreConnect Account is suspended or terminated, you must pay to us an access restoration fee specified on our Pricing to reactivate your StoreConnect Account (which for the avoidance of doubt, will not provide you with access to the deleted StoreConnect Subscription Data) and pay all Service Charges annually in advance thereafter.

StoreConnect Plan Inclusions: Our StoreConnect subscription plans include certain limits (for example, limited database, or CDN usage). If you are a StoreConnect Subscriber and you exceed the usage limits allocated to your plan specified in our Pricing, we will automatically charge an extra amount as specified in our Pricing, and thereafter that extra amount will be payable each month of your subscription (in addition to the Service Charges) if you are on a monthly plan, or where you are on an annual plan, we will issue an invoice to you for the balance of the year. You must pay all such extra amounts within 30 days of the date of any invoice.

Support and Maintenance: Each StoreConnect Subscription comes with free upgrades and updates to StoreConnect that we release generally to all of our StoreConnect subscribers, but only for subscribers who have current and paid up StoreConnect Subscriptions. We will notify you if we release an upgrade or update to StoreConnect generally to all of our StoreConnect Subscribers. An “upgrade” is a version of StoreConnect that includes new features. An “update” is a version of StoreConnect that includes bug fixes or security updates. All StoreConnect Subscribers are entitled to receive one free upgrade of the StoreConnect package per year. All other upgrades will incur a charge quoted by us for each upgrade.

Upgrades: Software updates to your StoreConnect service will be deployed from time to time to improve the functionality of your store as well as address any performance or security issues we identify. If you are on a Large or Enterprise plan you can optionally request that we give you notice of when these upgrades are due to happen and we will work with you to schedule an appropriate time to implement these upgrades for you within 30 days of our notification that we intend to perform an upgrade or within 7 days if it is a security issue.

Maintenance Windows: Occasionally there will be maintenance required on your StoreConnect hosted pages that is unavoidable as it is enforced from our hosting provider, and these maintenance windows can be set to a specific period at your request and usually last 10-60 seconds when they occur.

If you wish to obtain Your StoreConnect Subscriber Data prior to that time, you must make a request for us to export your StoreConnect Subscriber Data prior to the expiry of that 30-day period. We will only agree to export your StoreConnect Subscriber Data if you have paid all outstanding Service Charges owed to us. Any rights or obligations that, by their nature, survive termination, shall so survive, including any provision of these Terms & Conditions that deals with Intellectual Property Rights, liability and jurisdiction.

Transfer of rights: Each party must not assign or novate its rights and/or obligations under these Terms & Conditions without the other party’s prior written consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party may assign and/or novate its rights and/or obligations under these Terms & Conditions at any time in connection with any merger or acquisition or any restructure of its corporate group or any part of it, and in such circumstances the other party agrees to do all things and execute all documents reasonably required to give effect to such assignment and/or novation.

No refunds: We do not provide any Service Charges refunds except where we are required to provide a refund under applicable law.

Dispute Resolution: We would prefer to resolve disputes amicably rather than have our services terminated or either party waste time or money on legal action. If you have any problems with our services, please contact us. In our view, legal action, if it is ever necessary, should only be left as a last resort. If legal action is commenced, it may only be initiated in a court located in New South Wales.

Notices must be sent to us at info@getstoreconnect.com and notices must be sent to the email address of your administrator as set out in your StoreConnect Account.
