If you do not agree with any of these Terms, do not access or otherwise use this Site, any services available through this Site or any information contained on this Site. Your use of this Site shall be deemed to be your agreement to abide by each of the Terms set forth below. If you are using this Site for your company’s use, you represent that you are an authorized representative who has the authority to legally bind your company to these Terms and to grant Vebsto the necessary permission to make changes to your company’s website. Vebsto may make changes to the content and services offered on this Site at any time.

You may opt out of the binding individual arbitration and class action waiver as provided below.

  1. How Our Services Work

Vebsto offers services to build and for customizing websites. We connect website and business owners (“Users”) who need to update their existing websites or other coding services, with web developers (“Developers”) who are able to make these updates for Users through our internal ticketing system. Users can submit a request for website updates – herein called a “Task” – with us through email to support@vebsto.com and a Developer will be assigned to work on that Task. A Task shall take no longer than 1 hour in length which will be scoped at Vebsto's discretion. Some tasks require more than 1 hour and the task listing price will reflect this accordingly.

So that a Developer may work on the Task related to your website as requested, and/or complete the Task, you must supply us with the appropriate login credentials for your website and permit Developers temporary access in order to complete your Task. Developers are not permitted to use your login credentials for any purposes other than to evaluate and complete the Tasks. You must have the authority to authorize Vebsto and/or Developers to access your website in order to perform the requested services, or you may not submit a Task request.

Vebsto reserves the right to reject any Task that it deems out of scope for our service, this includes but is not limited to, issues with communicating the job.

  1. Website Security

As noted above, Users must supply us with the appropriate login credentials for their website and permit Developers temporary access in order to complete their Task(s). We will store log-in credentials securely, and they are only shared with the Developer(s) to whom your Task is assigned. Developers are prohibited from sharing these log-in credentials and from using your log-in credentials for any purpose other than completing your Task. We will not share your log-in credentials with anyone, after your Task is fully completed. However, you should update your log-in credential after your Task is complete.

At all times, you are responsible for having adequate security in place on your website. You agree to immediately notify Vebsto of any unauthorized use, or suspected unauthorized use of your Vebsto account or any other breach of security. We are not liable to any User for any loss or damage arising from User's failure to comply with the above requirements, including your failure to have in place adequate website security, or for any other User website vulnerabilities.

  1. Backups

All Users are required to ensure that they maintain backups of their theme throughout development. Vebsto makes an honest effort to duplicate and maintain backups within each store's themes panel, however, it is at the User's own risk to delete them. It is mandatory that Vebsto backups are kept in order to remain eligible for any of our guaranteed fixes.

Vebsto cannot and will not be liable for any loss of data to any User who fails to comply with this provision.

  1. Task Completion Times

Vebsto does not guarantee Task completion time; any estimates provided concerning the completion of a Task are provided as a courtesy and are not binding. Certain Tasks may be eligible to be submitted as "Express" Tasks. Tasks that are submitted as Express Tasks will be charged an additional Express fee. Eligibility for the Vebsto Express service is at the discretion of Vebsto.

Vebsto will provide a delivery time for all Express Tasks, and will do its best to ensure that the delivery time is met. However, Vebsto cannot guarantee that an Express Task will be completed within the stated delivery time. If an Express Task is not completed within the stated delivery time, Vebsto will refund to User the amount of the Express fee; however, User will not be entitled to a refund of the0 remaining Task fee simply because the Task was not completed within the stated delivery time.

  1. Purchases

Once a User submits a Task request, Vebsto will provide that User with a quote, estimating the cost of completing that Task, based on the number of hours needed to fulfill the Task; if you accept a quote, Vebsto will charge you accordingly and will assign your Task to one or more Developers for completion. By submitting a Task and accepting an estimate you agree to pay all fees or charges, including any taxes, to your account for that Task, based on Vebsto’s Task quote.

Please note that, while we attempt to provide accurate quotes at the outset of a Task (based on the number of hours needed to fulfill the Task), additional information or requests regarding the scope of the Task may necessitate and result in splitting the Task into two and more Tasks, which may increase the estimated price. Vebsto will inform Users of any increases to the Task quote; if you decline to pay for the increased cost, Vebsto, in its discretion, may (i) complete (or instruct the Developer to complete) only the Task from the original quote; (ii) cancel the Task and refund your money, and, in its discretion, rollback (or instruct the Developer to rollback) any work already completed on the Task, restoring your website to its prior state (i.e., the state of the website prior to the initiation of the Task).

If you do not pay on time or if Vebsto cannot charge your credit card, PayPal or other payment method for any reason, Vebsto reserves the right to either suspend or terminate your access to the Site and account, reject your Task, and terminate these Terms. You are expressly agreeing that Vebsto is permitted to bill you for the applicable fees, any applicable tax and any other charges you may incur in connection with your use of this Site and the fees will be billed to your credit card, PayPal or other payment method designated on your initial registration with this Site, and thereafter at regular intervals for the remainder of the term of these Terms. If you have a balance due on any account, you agree that Vebsto may charge such unpaid fees to your credit card or otherwise bill you for such unpaid fees.

  1. Refunds and Cancellations

The premise of our service is to offer on-going technical Shopify support, which is above the basic support offered by Shopify and Shopify theme and app partners. 

We offer our services in the following ways:

  1. Need based support
  2. Ongoing priority support 

We suggest that new Users purchase a single task as a nee based support task to assess our service within predefined tasks or email us to request a new task, as this is the best way to get your request assessed accurately.

We ask that upon purchasing a subscription, you agree to a 3 month minimum term. If you do not think you will need the service for more than a month, it's best to consider other support options. The quality and value we are able to deliver is optimal when customers are with us a minimum of 3 months.

There are several options to get a refund from Vebsto, depending on the way you have chosen to work with the Service:

  1. 100% Money Back Guarantee - applicable for 1 task credit under Need based option
  2. 14-day Satisfaction Guarantee - applicable for Ongoing priority support 
  3. Custom Quote Refund Policy - for custom quoted projects

Vebsto offers a 100% satisfaction guarantee. Users who are not satisfied with the outcome of work done on a Task (the "Outcome"), must notify Vebsto at info@vebsto.com, within the timeframe set forth below.

Once a Task has been marked as "Verify" by the assigned Developer(s), the User has up to 5 days (120 hours) to review the Task, and to mark it as "Complete," or to notify Vebsto that it is not satisfied with the Task Outcome. If a User does not take any action within those 5 days, Vebsto will send a new message as a reminder, and if we receive no answer from the User after 4 days, then the Task will automatically be marked as Completed by the system. A User then has 30 (thirty) days from the date a Task has been automatically marked "Complete" to notify Vebsto that they are not satisfied with the outcome of the Task or need any adjustment.

If a User notifies Vebsto that it is not satisfied with the Task Outcome, in accordance with the timeframe set forth above, Vebsto will either reopen the Task and rectify the situation, or will issue the User a refund in accordance with the Refund policy set forth above and at the discretion of Vebsto. However, Vebsto will not provide the User any refund of the Task fee, if the User does not notify Vebsto at info@vebsto.com, that they are not satisfied with the Task Outcome within that 30 days period.

Once you have notified us that you are not satisfied with the Task Outcome, Vebsto will take steps to address your complaints about the Task Outcome, including by asking the Developer who completed the work, or in our discretion a different Developer, to address your complaints regarding the Task Outcome. However, if after our attempts to address your complaints, you are still not satisfied with the Task Outcome, Vebsto will issue you a full refund, and may, at its discretion, reverse or rollback, or direct the Developer to reverse or rollback, the work conducted pursuant to the Task and restore your website to its previous condition (before the Task was commenced).

  1. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration; Class Action Waiver

Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to a customer’s satisfaction by contacting us at info@vebsto.com. This Provision facilitates the prompt and efficient resolution of any disputes that may arise between you and Vebsto. Arbitration is a form of private dispute resolution in which persons with a dispute waive their rights to file a lawsuit, to proceed in court and to a jury trial, and instead submit their disputes to a neutral third person (or arbitrator) for a binding decision. You have the right to opt-out of this Provision (as explained below), which means you would retain your right to litigate your disputes in a court, either before a judge or jury.

Please read this Provision carefully. It provides that all Disputes between you and Vebsto shall be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration replaces the right to go to court. In the absence of this arbitration agreement, you may otherwise have a right or opportunity to bring claims in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate in or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including, but not limited to, class actions). Except as otherwise provided, entering into this agreement constitutes a waiver of your right to litigate claims and all opportunity to be heard by a judge or jury. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. The arbitrator must follow this agreement and can award the same damages and relief as a court (including attorney’s fees).

For the purpose of this Provision, “Vebsto” means Vebsto and its parents, subsidiary, and affiliate companies, and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents. The term “Dispute” means any dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Vebsto regarding any aspect of your relationship with Vebsto, whether based in contract, statute, regulation, ordinance, tort (including, but not limited to, fraud, misrepresentation, fraudulent inducement, or negligence), or any other legal or equitable theory, and includes the validity, enforceability or scope of this Provision (with the exception of the enforceability of the Class Action Waiver clause below). “Dispute” is to be given the broadest possible meaning that will be enforced, and shall include any claims against other parties relating to services or products provided or billed to you (such as Vebsto’s licensors, suppliers, dealers or third party vendors) whenever you also assert claims against us in the same proceeding.

We each agree that, except as provided below, any and all disputes, as defined above, whether presently in existence or based on acts or omissions in the past or in the future, will be resolved exclusively and finally by binding arbitration rather than in court in accordance with this provision.

Pre-Arbitration Claim Resolution

For all Disputes, whether pursued in court or arbitration, you must first give Vebsto an opportunity to resolve the Dispute.

That written notification must include (1) your name, (2) your address, (3) a written description of your Claim, and (4) a description of the specific relief you seek. If Vebsto does not resolve the Dispute within 45 days after it receives your written notification, you may pursue your Dispute in arbitration. You may pursue your Dispute in a court only under the circumstances described below.

Exclusions from Arbitration/Right to Opt Out

Notwithstanding the above, you or Vebsto may choose to pursue a Dispute in court and not by arbitration if (a) the Dispute qualifies, it may be initiated in small claims court; or (b) you opt-out of these arbitration procedures within 30 days from the date that you first consent to this agreement (the “Opt-Out Deadline”).

Any opt-out request received after the Opt-Out Deadline will not be valid and you must pursue your Dispute in arbitration (or small claims court as designated above).

Class Action Waiver

Except as otherwise provided in this Provision, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a class or representative proceeding or claims (such as a class action, consolidated action or private attorney general action) unless both you and Vebsto specifically agree to do so following initiation of the arbitration. If you choose to pursue your Dispute in court by opting out of the Arbitration Provision, as specified above, this Class Action Waiver will not apply to you. Neither you, nor any other user of the Site can be a class representative, class member, or otherwise participate in a class, consolidated, or representative proceeding without having complied with the opt-out requirements above.

Jury Waiver

You understand and agree that by entering into this Agreement you and Vebsto are each waiving the right to a jury trial or a trial before a judge in a public court. In the absence of this Provision, you and Vebsto might otherwise have had a right or opportunity to bring Disputes in a court, before a judge or jury, and/or to participate or be represented in a case filed in court by others (including class actions). Except as otherwise provided below, those rights are waived. Other rights that you would have if you went to court, such as the right to appeal and to certain types of discovery, may be more limited or may also be waived.

Severability

If any clause within this Provision (other than the Class Action Waiver clause above) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Provision, and the remainder of this Provision will be given full force and effect. If the Class Action Waiver clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Provision will be unenforceable and the Dispute will be decided by a court.

Continuation

This Provision shall survive the termination of your service with Vebsto or its affiliates. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if Vebsto makes any change to this Provision (other than a change to the Notice Address), you may reject any such change and require Vebsto to adhere to the language in this Provision if a dispute between us arises.

  1. Limited Time to Bring Claim

Where permitted by law, you and Vebsto agree that any cause of action arising out of or related to the Site, and the services available through the Site, or any Site Materials must be commenced within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues. Otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.
