By submitting Customer Content, Customer hereby grants StoreMantis an irrevocable, perpetual, transferable, non-exclusive, fully-paid-up, royalty-free, worldwide license (sublicensable through multiple tiers) to: (a) use, copy, distribute, reproduce, modify, create derivative works of, adapt, publish, translate, publicly perform, and publicly display Customer Content (or any modification thereto), in whole or in part, in any format, medium or application now known or later developed, and (b) use (and permit others to use) Customer Content in any manner and for any purpose (including, but not limited to, commercial purposes) that StoreMantis deems appropriate in its sole discretion (including, but not limited to, to incorporating Customer Content (or any modification thereto), in whole or in part, into any technology, product or service. The provisions in this Section apply specifically to StoreMantis’s use of Customer Content posted to StoreMantis’s corporate websites or submitted directly to StoreMantis. The provisions in this Section are not intended to and do not have the effect of transferring any ownership (including intellectual property rights) Customer may have in content posted to Customer’s hosted sites or granting any license (including intellectual property rights) to content posted to Customer’s hosted sites (other than as necessary for StoreMantis to host Customer’s sites and provide the Services). Customer will be solely responsible for any and all of the Customer Content that is submitted through Customer’s account, and the consequences of, and requirements for, distributing it.

6. Export of Services or Technical Data
Customer may not remove or export from Nigeria or allow the export or re-export of the Services, or any direct product thereof, including technical data, in violation of any restrictions, laws, or regulations of Nigeria, or any other applicable country.
7. Fees and Payment; Upgrade, Downgrade and Cancellation of Services
7.1 Fees. In consideration of the Services provided, Customer will pay StoreMantis all fees due according to the prices and terms listed on this website. StoreMantis Services are PREPAID and NON-REFUNDABLE FOR THE TERM OF SERVICES PURCHASED. UPON ANY TERMINATION BY CUSTOMER, STOREMANTIS DOES NOT PROVIDE REFUNDS OR CREDITS FOR ANY SERVICES NOT YET PERFORMED. StoreMantis reserves the right to modify its pricing and terms at any time, and such changes or modifications will be posted on this website and effective immediately upon the next renewal, or upgrade or downgrade of the Services with and/or without notice to Customer.
7.2 Taxes. All fees are exclusive of all federal, state, and/or other governmental sales, goods and services, harmonized or other taxes, fees or charges. If Customer is a resident of Nigeria, Customer is responsible for all applicable Goods and Services Taxes.
7.3 Billing Policies and Cycles. All billing invoices and payment notifications will be maintained directly in Customer’s Account Portal. The billing cycle begins on the day Customer converts to a paid store and is due on that day each month, partial year or year thereafter, based on the Services plan selected. Billing related to the purchase of SSL’s, Domain, and/or professional services are billed once these products/services have been purchased by Customer.
7.4 Payment. Payments can be made either annually or bi-annually. Customers will be notified a few days to service expiry. Customers are expected to make payment before the service expiration date. Failure to do so will result in account suspension.
7.5 Unpaid Accounts. Unpaid amounts are subject to a late payment charge of 1.5% per month, or the maximum legal rate allowed by law, whichever is less. If payment is not received within 30 calendar days of the billing date, StoreMantis will automatically revoke access to Customer’s account. StoreMantis may or may not contact Customer directly to notify Customer of its unpaid account. Accounts past due over 90 days will automatically be deactivated.
7.6 Disputed Charges/Billing Inquiries. It is Customer’s obligation to review all charges for accuracy. Customer has 30 days from the date of billing to contact StoreMantis and/or dispute the charge. Failure to do so within the specified time frame will constitute Customer’s agreement that all charges are valid and Customer thereby waives any claims it may have had regarding such charge.
7.7 Upgrades. Should Customer elect to upgrade its Services or if Customer is automatically upgraded pursuant to the last sentence of this Section 7.7, the commencement date of the next renewal period will remain the same; however, Customer will be billed immediately for the pro-rata portion of the upgraded Services fee for the remainder of the current billing period. For example, if a month-to-month customer is billed on October 9th for monthly Services from October 9th to November 8th, and such Customer’s account is upgraded effective on October 30th, then such Customer will be charged immediately for the pro-rata usage of the upgraded plan from October 30th to November 8th. On November 9th such Customer will be charged for the full monthly fee amount of the upgraded plan. In addition, if a Customer exceeds his, her or its storage limitation or other stated limitations for their Service plan for two consecutive billing periods, such Customer will be automatically upgraded effective at the commencement of the next billing period to a Service plan that accommodates such Customer’s greatest storage usage or other applicable usage limit for such period.
7.8 Downgrades. Should Customer elect to downgrade its Services, the downgrade will take effect on the commencement of the next renewal period. In other words, StoreMantis DOES NOT provide credits or refunds on downgrades that are effective during the applicable billing period (whether such period is twice a year or yearly). For example, if a month-to-month customer is billed on October 9th for Services from October 9th to November 8th and such customer downgrades the Services effective on October 30th, then the downgrade will take effect on the next billing date, i.e. November 9th.
7.9 Cancellations. StoreMantis Services will continue in effect until Customer validly terminates the Services. Customer must notify StoreMantis of its intent to terminate Service at least 5 calendar days before the billing renewal date.

In addition, the failure of Customer to cooperate with StoreMantis in correcting or preventing violations of these Terms by, or that result from the activity of, a customer, patron, subscriber, invitee, visitor, or guest of Customer constitutes a violation of these Terms by Customer. Without limiting the rights and remedies available to it, StoreMantis reserves the right in its sole discretion, to suspend or terminate Customer’s access to its account and the Services, with or without notice, and to take any other action that StoreMantis determines in its sole discretion is necessary as a result of any behavior by Customer that is illegal, inappropriate, disruptive to this website, the Services, or to any other user of this website or the Services, or which otherwise breaches these Terms. StoreMantis may report to law enforcement authorities any actions that may be illegal, and any reports it receives of such conduct. When legally required, or otherwise in StoreMantis’s sole discretion, StoreMantis will cooperate with law enforcement agencies in any investigation of alleged illegal activity conducted using this website or the Services. These prohibitions do not require StoreMantis to monitor, police, remove or reject any Customer Content or other information submitted by Customer or any other user.
9. Backup Storage
StoreMantis offers its Services to host ecommerce websites, not to store data. Using an account as an online storage space for archiving electronic files is prohibited and will result in termination of Services without prior notice. For its own operational efficiencies and purposes, StoreMantis from time to time backs up data on its servers, but is under no obligation or duty to Customer to do so under these Terms. IT IS SOLELY CUSTOMER’S DUTY AND RESPONSIBILITY TO SEPARATELY BACKUP CUSTOMER’S FILES AND DATA WHICH MAY RESIDE ON STOREMANTIS SERVERS.

The DMCA allows StoreMantis to restore the removed content if the party filing the original DMCA Notice does not file a court action against Customer within ten business days of receiving the copy of Customer’s Counter-Notice.

StoreMantis or its personnel may from time to time recommend or enable third party software, products, services or website links for Customer’s consideration or use. Such software, products, services, and links are provided only as a convenience to customers of the Services. Some of the Services made available through this website may be subject to additional third party licensing terms or third party terms of use, including the ones posted here and incorporated herein by reference. Inclusion of any of the foregoing in the Services does not constitute or imply an endorsement, authorization, sponsorship, or affiliation by or with StoreMantis with respect to any third party, any third party’s website or its content, or any information, products, or services provided by a third party.
These Terms and the Privacy Policy do not apply to such third party websites, and Customer should review such third party websites’ privacy policies, terms and conditions and business practices as they may be different than StoreMantis’s Terms and it is Customer’s sole responsibility to comply with such third party terms. Access to any other website is at Customer’s own risk, and Customer’s dealings and communications with any third party in connection with such third party’s website are solely between Customer and such third party.
STOREMANTIS MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES REGARDING THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE, PRODUCTS OR SERVICES AND WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY SOFTWARE, PRODUCTS OR SERVICES CUSTOMER RECEIVES FROM THIRD PARTIES.
12.2 StoreMantis Theme Store
Except as otherwise expressly provided at checkout when licensing a Design Theme, refunds will not be issued to Customers for Design Themes once they are installed on the Customer’s store.
All Design Themes are licensed under a non-exclusive license agreement and can be reproduced and redistributed an unlimited number of times by StoreMantis.
StoreMantis grants to Customer, for so long as Customer continues to subscribe and pay for the Services, a nonexclusive license to modify, make derivative works of and use, each licensed Design Theme solely in conjunction with the StoreMantis platform and the Services. For clarity, the foregoing license only allows Customer to use each licensed Design Theme for a single StoreMantis store/website per license purchased. If Customer desires to use a Design Theme for more than one StoreMantis store owned or operated by Customer, a new Design Theme license must be purchased for each such store using the Design Theme. Design Themes may only be used by a Customer and may not be transferred by Customer to any unaffiliated third party without the prior written consent of StoreMantis. For clarity, Customer may not license, sublicense, assign, transfer, redistribute or sell any Design Themes or derivative works thereof to any other parties. The Design Theme is the exclusive property of our design partner, and all right, title and interest in each Design Theme shall remain exclusively with the applicable design partner.
If Customer licenses a Design Theme for its website, StoreMantis may provide your personal information to our design partner to facilitate the design partner’s provision and/or offer of support/services and/or products to the Customer.
If Customer customizes a Design Theme, neither StoreMantis nor its design partners are obligated to support that Design Theme.
12.3 Resource Restrictions
StoreMantis provides unlimited bandwidth for all sites hosted on it's platform.
Disk space is alloted based on the plan a user has subscribed to.
StoreMantis does not set an arbitrary limit or cap on the amount of resources a single Subscriber can use. In good faith and subject to these Terms, StoreMantis makes every commercially reasonable effort to provide its Subscribers with all the storage and bandwidth resources needed to power their web sites successfully, as long as the Subscriber's use of the service complies with these Terms. By not setting limits on key resources, we are able to provide simple, consistent pricing to our Subscribers as they grow their websites. As a result, a typical website may experience periods of great popularity and resulting increased storage without experiencing any associated increase in charges.
StoreMantis employs complex mechanisms to protect its Subscribers and systems from abuse. StoreMantis's offering of "unlimited" services is not intended to allow the actions of a single or few Subscribers to unfairly or adversely impact the experience of other Subscribers. StoreMantis' service is a shared hosting service, which means that multiple Subscriber web sites are hosted from the same server and share server resources. StoreMantis' service is designed to meet the typical needs of small business and home business website Subscribers. It is NOT intended to support the sustained demand of large enterprises or non-typical applications better suited to a dedicated server. StoreMantis will make every commercially reasonable effort to provide additional resources to Subscribers who are using their website(s) consistent with these Terms. However, in order to ensure a consistent and quality experience for all Subscribers, StoreMantis does place automated safeguards to protect against any one site growing too quickly and adversely impacting the system until StoreMantis can evaluate said sites resource needs.
12.4 Refund Policy
Kindly note that StoreMantis does not issue refunds on any of its services.
12.5 Technical Support Service
StoreMantis provides support for all subscribed merchants on our platform. The scope of our support service is limited to the
