Terms & Conditions

IMPORTANT: If you are not of legal age to form a binding contract (in many places, this is 18 years old), then you must get your parent or guardian to read these terms and agree to them on your behalf before you use impleCode.com or before you provide any information about yourself in the Service. This document is a Contract and it should be reviewed with your parent or guardian so that you both understand how the Service works and what restrictions or rules apply to your use of the Service.

These Use Terms are a contract between you and us. They govern your impleCode Service use. Agreeing to these Use Terms is a condition of any impleCode Service use. You signify your agreement to these Use Terms and will be legally bound by them from the date on which you:

  • click to accept or agree to these Use Terms where impleCode presents an option to do so, either on the Website or otherwise; or
  • use the Services in any way, in which case you understand and agree that your impleCode Service use will signify your acceptance of these Use Terms from the moment you first begin to use the impleCode Service.

Effective date is 2014–05–28.

The impleCode Service

Our Website details the impleCode Service which, broadly, comprises the following components:

We grant you a limited and non-exclusive right to use the impleCode Service solely for the purposes which the impleCode Service is intended for and as permitted by the licenses applicable to the impleCode Service components. This right is not transferable to any other person unless we agree.

You agree that, except where the nature of the impleCode Service requires otherwise, each component of the impleCode Service constitutes a separate and distinct service, and we are not necessarily obliged to render two or more components of the impleCode Service as a single, indivisible service.

Products

Our products are licensed under the GPL (click here to find out more about the GPL).

When you purchase paid Products, you will receive access to a Support Service for those Products for a period of one year. You may renew the Support Service for your paid Products on the anniversary of your paid Products’ purchase. For more information about the Support Service, read below.

All our Products require WordPress CMS.

Additional terms apply

In the light of Article 7 of the GPL license, the following additional terms apply:

  1. You are prohibited to make misrepresentations of the origin of that material, or to require that modified versions of such material be marked in reasonable ways as different from the original version;
  2. You are limited in the use for publicity purposes of names of licensors or authors of the material;
  3. You are declined any grant of rights under trademark law for use of the trade names, trademarks, or service marks of impleCode;
  4. You are required to indemnify licensors and authors of that material by anyone who conveys the material (or modified versions of it) with contractual assumptions of liability to the recipient, for any liability that these contractual assumptions directly impose on those licensors and authors.

Support Service

As we pointed out above, when you purchase paid Products, you will receive access to a Support Service developed to support the specific paid Products you have purchased. The Website contains more information about the specific Support Service you receive with each paid Product purchase. The corresponding Support Service is valid for 1 year from the date of your purchase for specific websites (according to the license you choose), regardless of which paid Product you purchase, after which time the Support Service will come to an end.

The Support Service is provided by email so you need an email address to receive it.

You may renew the Support Service for each paid Product at 30% of the price you paid for the paid Product if you renew the relevant Support Service before the date on which the relevant Support Service terminates. You may renew Support Services on our Website.

Support Services are only available to you and you may not transfer them to any other person without our express, written consent. We may refuse to give consent for this at our discretion.

Content use

impleCode grants users a Content License in respect of impleCode Intellectual Property which forms part of the Services.

To the extent that any copying, reproduction, distribution, transmission, display, broadcasting or publishing of any Content is expressly permitted (such permission to be interpreted in its most restrictive sense) users may do so, provided that all trademarks, trade names and all copyright, ownership, proprietary and confidentiality notices included on or in relation to the Content are retained and displayed without alteration or modification and not in any manner obscured or removed.

Users are further required, as a condition of this Content License, to clearly and expressly attribute impleCode as the Content’s source (with valid URL to the original content).

Users acknowledge that they do not acquire any ownership rights or rights to use the Content except where explicitly permitted to do so. In the event impleCode revokes the Content License, users may no longer use the Content.

Changes to the Services

We may change any aspect of the impleCode Service on written notice to you. These changes may include discontinuing aspects of the impleCode Service or the impleCode Service in its entirety. In the event we do make any changes to any aspect of the impleCode Service, we will publish updated impleCode Service information which shall detail the:

  • proposed changes to the impleCode Service;
  • and the date on which these proposed changes shall be implemented.

Changes to the impleCode Service may, at our sole discretion, require consequential changes to fees payable for and delivery timeframes applicable to the aspects of the impleCode Service affected by the changes. We will similarly notify you of any such changes to fees payable or delivery timeframes.

Fees

Where fees are payable for any component of the impleCode Service, these fees are payable in advance and we may, in our sole discretion, suspend any aspect of the impleCode Service which you have not paid for.

You may claim a refund of any fees you have paid for any paid Products within 30 days of your purchase or until you Start Using the Service. The refund will not be granted if you claim it for the same product that it was granted before (if you decide to buy the refunded Product again).

If you purchased a WordPress Consulting service and consider the service not worth its money, we would love to talk to you about that. We consider our WordPress Consulting Services a bargain and value good feedback.

While it remains at impleCode’s discretion to grant a refund, we will work hard to make you happy. Your use of the impleCode Service you are claiming a refund for may be terminated when you are refunded.

Without detracting from any of our rights, you agree that we are entitled to discontinue any aspect of the impleCode Service you may be using if you fail to pay any amount when it falls due or if you breach these Use Terms. In the event we incur expenses to recover amounts you owe us, you further agree that we may recover our legal costs on the attorney and own client scale, collection charges and tracing fees, and any applicable VAT.

Prices are in US Dollar and exclude VAT. VAT will be included only for Customers from European Union countries which do not provide valid EU VAT number and for Customers from Poland.

Severability

If any court which has jurisdiction finds any clause or term of these Use Terms to be unenforceable, then the Parties agree that the remaining terms and provisions of these Use Terms shall be deemed to be severable from the unenforceable provisions and shall continue in full force and effect unless such unenforceability goes to the root of these Use Terms, in which case these Use Terms shall terminate.

General

These Use Terms, as read with the documents referenced in these Use Terms, constitute the sole record of the agreement between the Parties in regard to its subject matter.

No Party shall be bound by any express or implied term, representation, warranty, promise or the like, not recorded in these Use Terms.

No addition to, variation or consensual cancellation of these Use Terms, including this clause, shall be of any force or effect unless in writing and signed by or on behalf of all the Parties.

The Parties undertake at all times to take all reasonable steps to implement and comply with these Use Terms.

Interpretation Guide

In these Use Terms, headings are for convenience and are not intended to be used to interpret the Use Terms.

If the Use Terms refers to a Party who is liquidated or sequestrated (or has been through a comparable process under a different legal system), then the Use Terms will also be applicable to and binding on that Party’s liquidator or trustee, as the case may be.

Unless these Use Terms indicates to the contrary, any references to any gender includes the other genders, a natural person includes an artificial person and vice versa, the singular includes the plural and vice versa.

Where these Use Terms specifies any number of days, the number of days excludes the first day and includes the last day unless the last day falls on a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday in Poland, in which case the last day shall be the next succeeding day which is not a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday in Poland. Generally speaking, references to a “day” are references to typical business days.

Any reference to “business hours” shall be construed as being the hours between 09h00 (nine hours) and 17h00 (seventeen hours) on any day. Any reference to time shall be based upon Central European Time (CET);

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or the limitation or exclusion of certain liabilities. Accordingly, some of the limitations set out above may not apply to you.

In particular, where you are using our Service as a consumer, nothing in these terms and conditions shall affect your statutory rights.
