- Terms and Conditions
1. Single Shop License
Themes are licensed to use for a single store only, whether the themes are published or not.
You are not permitted to transfer or sell a Theme to any other person’s store on Shopify or elsewhere.
You may modify the Theme to suit your store. Shopify may add or modify the footer that refers to Shopify at its discretion. The intellectual property rights of the Theme remain the property of ThemeGoal.
You may not share, resell, barter, trade or give away ThemeGoal code in whole or part, with or without modification to any store other than the one it was originally licensed to. If ThemeGoal discovers unauthorized distribution of its intellectual property, the original license may be voided without refund and all stores using the original code or unauthorized copies must cease using them immediately.
Theme "styles" or "presets" are considered to be part of a theme. Using one theme style or preset on one store and another style or preset on another store without paying a separate licensing fee is a violation of the licensing terms and conditions.
ThemeGoal reserves the right to cancel any license, at its sole and final discretion, and without refund.
You are permitted to transfer a theme to a second one of your own stores if you close your first store. Transferring a theme license may require contacting support, so please allow 1-3 business days for processing.
Reselling ThemeGoal themes, with or without modification, is strictly prohibited, whether or not you are the original purchaser or not. ThemeGoal reserves the right to investigate and report unauthorized sales to third party sales platforms using any and all information about the listing, transactions, existing customer databases and information publicly available on the web.
When such sales are discovered, the seller is responsible for notifying all of the purchasers of the unauthorized copies, issuing an automatic full refund and advising the purchasers that the licenses are voided and use of the unlicensed themes may result in their store being shut down or other serious legal repercussions.
ThemeGoal reserves the right to invoice sellers of unauthorized copies of themes at full list price, which is due upon demand.
2. Theme Updates
Our themes are designed to provide an optimized experience on a wide range of devices. While we do our best to ensure that our themes are completely bug free on every device, we will inevitably overlook bugs on occasion. We encourage you to report any issues in our Support Center. We will address as many issues as possible and release updates to our themes as we see fit. If you purchase a theme, you will be eligible for future updates to that theme for the lifetime of your valid license.
3. Technical Support
Our Support Center is an excellent resource for common theme questions and customization tips.
While ThemeGoal will, using its best efforts, provide limited technical support subject to our official support policy, which is incorporated herein, for one year from initial purchase date, support is not guaranteed and ThemeGoal reserves the right to limit support at its sole and final discretion and without notice.
When creating a staff account for ThemeGoal support staff, you are authorizing us to use this login to diagnose, fix or analyze your Shopify account. We are not liable for any disclosures, changes, customizations, or alterations to your shop or its data that may result in lost profits or any special, incidental or consequential damages arising out of or in connection with our products or services, whether these changes are made by our team or through unauthorized access via the account.
Priority support requests must be submitted through the designated form and provide detailed information in order for it to be prioritized. Priority requests do not receive a guaranteed turnaround time and in some cases, it may take longer to receive a reply than a standard request depending on the complexity.
For full details about technical support, please see the ThemeGoal support policy, which is incorporated herein.
4. Refund, Payment and Discount Policy
Since our themes are non-tangible irrevocable digital goods, all purchases are final and not refundable unless otherwise stated.
All discount codes must be used at time of purchase. No adjustments can be made after purchases are completed. ThemeGoal-issued discount codes valid only on themegoal.com and not on the Shopify Theme Store (themes.shopify.com).
Discount codes are non-transferrable, may be quantity controlled and subject to eligibility requirements. Limit one discount per order. ThemeGoal reserves the right to discontinue or modify any discount at any time without notice.
ThemeGoal reserves the right to adjust orders or limit future support on theme purchase that have been found to be processed with ineligible discount codes.
Please be aware that certain payment methods in certain jurisdictions may require additional time to clear and have your theme download released. In general, we recommend using a major credit card instead of bank transfers or electronic checks to avoid any delay.
Upon issuance of refund, the theme license will be voided and all copies of the theme must be deleted from Shopify stores, whether published or not. Limit one refund per customer or agency.
In the event a customer issues a chargeback against ThemeGoal, the theme license is immediately voided and the customer must delete any and all copies of the theme, whether in development or production status. If the result of the chargeback investigation is found to be in favor of ThemeGoal, ThemeGoal reserves the right to charge a fee to cover its costs associated with the chargeback.
ThemeGoal reserves the right, at its sole and final discretion, to revoke the license of any store owner at any time without notice upon providing a full refund of the original purchase price (less any discounts). In these situations, the theme must be removed from the merchant store and all electronic copies, including non-production and backups, be destroyed.
All purchase prices are denominated in U.S. dollars. Purchases made using accounts that are domiciled in other countries made incur international transaction fees as outlined by the card issuer's terms and conditions. ThemeGoal has no control over such fees and cannot provide refunds or credits for these fees.
