- failing to include a working “unsubscribe” link in each email that allows the recipient to remove themselves from your mailing list;
- failing to comply with any request from a recipient to be removed from your mailing list within 10 days of receipt of the request;
- failing to include in each email a link to the then-current privacy policy applicable to that email;

StoreCart’s Email Services utilize Third Party Providers. Your use of the Email Services is subject to the Third Party’s Acceptable Use Policy as it may be amended by Third Party from time to time.
13. Payment of Fees
You will pay the Fees applicable to your subscription to Online Service and/or POS Services (“Subscription Fees”) and any other applicable fees, including but not limited to applicable fees relating to the value of sales made through your Store when using all payment providers other than StoreCart Payments (“Transaction Fees”), and any fees relating to your purchase or use of any products or services or Third Party Services (“Additional Fees”). Together, the Subscription Fees, Transaction Fees and the Additional Fees are referred to as the “Fees”.
You must keep a valid payment method on file with us to pay for all incurred and recurring Fees. StoreCart will charge applicable Fees to any valid payment method that you authorize (“Authorized Payment Method”), and StoreCart will continue to charge the Authorized Payment Method for applicable Fees until the Services are terminated, and any and all outstanding Fees have been paid in full.
Subscription Fees are paid in advance and will be billed in monthly or yearly intervals depending on the Subscription Plan (each such date, a “Billing Date”). You will be charged on each Billing Date for all outstanding Fees that have not previously been charged. Fees will appear on an invoice, which will be sent to the Store Owner via the email provided. As well, an invoice will appear on the Subscription page of your Store’s administration console. Users have approximately two weeks to bring up and settle any issues with the billing of Subscription Fees.
If we are not able to process payment of Fees using an Authorized Payment Method, we will make a second attempt to process payment using any Authorized Payment Method 3 days later. If the second attempt is not successful, we will make a final attempt 3 days following the second attempt. If our final attempt is not successful, we may suspend and revoke access to your Account and the Services. Your Account will be reactivated upon your payment of any outstanding Fees, plus the Fees applicable to your next billing cycle. You may not be able to access your Account or your storefront during any period of suspension. If the outstanding Fees remain unpaid for 30 days following the date of suspension, StoreCart reserves the right to terminate your Account.
All Fees are exclusive of applicable Goods and Sales Tax, fees or charges now in force or enacted in the future (“Taxes”).
You are responsible for all applicable Taxes that arise from or as a result of your subscription to or purchase of StoreCart’s products and services. To the extent that StoreCart charges these Taxes, they are calculated using the tax rates that apply based on the billing address you provide to us. Such amounts are in addition to the Fees for such products and services and will be billed to your Authorized Payment Method. If you are exempt from payment of such Taxes, you must provide us with evidence of your exemption, which in some jurisdictions includes an original certificate that satisfies applicable legal requirements attesting to tax-exempt status. Tax exemption will only apply from and after the date we receive evidence satisfactory to StoreCart of your exemption. If you are not charged Taxes by StoreCart, you are responsible for determining if Taxes are payable, and if so, self-remitting Taxes to the appropriate tax authorities in your jurisdiction.
For the avoidance of doubt, all sums payable by you to StoreCart under these Terms of Service shall be paid free and clear of any deductions or withholdings whatsoever. Other than Taxes charged by StoreCart to you and remitted to the appropriate tax authorities on your behalf, any deductions or withholdings that are required by law shall be borne by you and paid separately to the relevant taxation authority. StoreCart shall be entitled to charge the full amount of Fees stipulated under these Terms of Service to your Authorized Payment Method ignoring any such deduction or withholding that may be required.
You are responsible for all applicable Taxes that arise from or as a result of any sale on your StoreCart Store.

- any outstanding balance owed to StoreCart for your use of the Services through the effective date of such termination will immediately become due and payable in full; and
- your Store website will be taken offline.
If you purchased a domain name through StoreCart, upon cancellation your domain will no longer be automatically renewed. Following termination, it will be your sole responsibility to handle all matters related to your domain with the domain provider.
If at the date of termination of the Service, there are any outstanding Fees owing by you, you will receive one final invoice via email. Once that invoice has been paid in full, you will not be charged again.
We reserve the right to modify or terminate the StoreCart Service, the Terms of Service and/or your Account for any reason, without notice at any time (unless otherwise required by applicable law). Termination of the Terms of Service shall be without prejudice to any rights or obligations which arose prior to the date of termination.

In addition to these Terms of Service, you also agree to be bound by the additional service-specific terms applicable to services you purchase from, or that are provided by, Third Party Providers.
StoreCart Experts is an online directory of independent third parties (“Experts”) that can help you build and operate your StoreCart Store.
You can engage and work with an Expert directly or through Experts Marketplace. Experts Marketplace provides you with recommendations on Experts that can assist you with different aspects of your Store. Using Experts Marketplace, you can find, hire, and communicate with Experts directly from your Account admin.
Any use by you of Third Party Services offered through the Services, StoreCart Experts, Experts Marketplace or StoreCart’s website is entirely at your own risk and discretion, and it is your responsibility to read the terms and conditions and/or privacy policies applicable to such Third Party Services before using them. In some instances, StoreCart may receive a revenue share from Third Party Providers that StoreCart recommends to you or that you otherwise engage through your use of the Services, StoreCart Experts, Experts Marketplace or StoreCart’s website.
We do not provide any warranties or make representations to you with respect to Third Party Services. You acknowledge that StoreCart has no control over Third Party Services and shall not be responsible or liable to you or anyone else for such Third Party Services. The availability of Third Party Services on StoreCart’s websites, including the StoreCart App Store or Experts Marketplace, or the integration or enabling of such Third Party Services with the Services does not constitute or imply an endorsement, authorization, sponsorship, or affiliation by or with StoreCart. StoreCart does not guarantee the availability of Third Party Services and you acknowledge that StoreCart may disable access to any Third Party Services at any time in its sole discretion and without notice to you. StoreCart is not responsible or liable to anyone for discontinuation or suspension of access to, or disablement of, any Third Party Service. StoreCart strongly recommends that you seek specialist advice before using or relying on Third Party Services, to ensure they will meet your needs.
