License Agreement on the use of products

CS-Market Product License Agreement and Terms of Sale

Effective 1 September 2026 Applies to: all add-ons, modules and other software products sold by CS-Market at cs-market.com and through authorized sales channels.

The version of this document in force on the date of your order governs that order. Earlier versions are archived and available on request.


Summary (not legally binding)

What you buy A permanent license to use one add-on on one CS-Cart installation. Not ownership of the add-on.
"One installation" One CS-Cart instance — one set of files, one database, one admin panel. Your edition, your number of storefronts, your number of storefront domains and your number of vendors do not matter.
How it is enforced The license key is bound to the domain of your CS-Cart admin panel. That domain is always one per installation.
Changing that domain Allowed, free, at any time — but you must tell us through the helpdesk. Change it without telling us and your key is suspended until you contact us. If it was a genuine move of the same store, we swap the domain and you carry on. If the add-on has actually been moved to a second installation or a different business, that is a breach and the license ends without a refund.
Test copies Up to 3 development / staging / local copies, added to your key on request, at any time. They must be closed to the public and not used for trading.
Warranty 6 months. The add-on will work as described, on the CS-Cart versions listed on the product page, in a clean environment.
You must give us access If you report a bug, you must give us admin and FTP or SSH access — either to the affected store or to a test copy of it that reproduces the problem. Without it we cannot diagnose or fix anything, and the warranty does not apply to that issue.
Updates 6 months of free updates. After that the add-on keeps working forever; you renew if you want new versions.
Support 6 months through our helpdesk, on business days.
Renewal One renewal buys a further 6 months of updates and support together, from 30% of the current price.
Refunds Two grounds only: (1) you never activated the license, within 14 days of purchase; (2) a defect in our add-on that we cannot fix. A conflict with another vendor's add-on or theme is not a refund ground — it is a paid customization job.

1. Agreement to these terms

1.1 These terms form a binding agreement between you ("you", "Customer") and Individual Entrepreneur Gorbunova O.V. (Индивидуальный предприниматель Горбунова О.В.), registered in the Russian Federation under OGRNIP 325784700122440, INN 732895289100, trading as "CS-Market" ("CS-Market", "we", "us"), the owner and operator of cs-market.com (the "Site").

"CS-Market" is a trading name. The contracting party is the individual entrepreneur identified above. Our registered details are also available on request through the Helpdesk or at manager@cs-market.com.

1.2 You accept these terms by ticking the acceptance box at checkout, by completing an order, or by installing or using any Product, whichever happens first. If you do not accept them, do not purchase, install or use the Products.

1.3 If you accept these terms on behalf of a company or other organization, you confirm you have authority to bind it, and "you" means that organization.

1.4 These terms apply separately to each order. A later version does not change the terms of a license you already bought (section 22).

1.5 Our handling of personal data is described in a separate Privacy Policy, which is a notice rather than a contract and is not part of this Agreement.


2. Definitions

Product — an add-on, module or other software item sold by us, including its files, documentation and any Update we supply.

Product Description — the description, feature list, compatibility list and technical requirements published on the Product's page on the Site on the date of your purchase.

Installation — one instance of the CS-Cart or Multi-Vendor software, consisting of a single copy of the CS-Cart application files served from a single web root and connected to a single CS-Cart database, administered through a single administration panel. All storefronts, sales channels, storefront domains, subdomains, languages, currencies, vendors and administrator accounts belonging to that instance are part of the same Installation.

Admin Domain — the domain or subdomain at which the administration panel of your Installation is served. Each Installation has exactly one Admin Domain at any given time.

Production Installation — an Installation that is publicly accessible, used for live trading, or otherwise used in the ordinary course of business.

Registered Test Installation — a copy of your Production Installation used solely for development, staging, testing or training, which has been registered against your License Key under section 4.3.

Supported Versions — the CS-Cart versions listed as compatible in the Product Description on the date of your purchase, together with any versions we later add through an Update supplied to you within your Update Period.

Clean Environment — a Production Installation or Registered Test Installation in which: (a) CS-Cart is a Supported Version with an unmodified core; (b) the Product files are exactly as we supplied them; (c) the server meets the requirements published by the CS-Cart developer for that CS-Cart version and any additional requirements in the Product Description; and (d) no third-party add-on, theme, customization or server-level modification is interfering with the Product.

License Key — the key or credential we issue to identify and validate your license. It records your Admin Domain and any Registered Test Installations.

Update — a corrective or compatibility release of the same Product.

Warranty Period / Update Period / Support Period — six (6) months each, starting on the date your order is completed.

Helpdesk — our ticket system at cs-market.com, or the ticket channel of the marketplace through which you purchased.


3. License grant

3.1 Subject to payment in full and your compliance with this Agreement, we grant you a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable license to install and use one copy of the Product on one Production Installation, for your own business purposes or those of a single client for whom you are acting.

3.2 The license is perpetual. It does not expire when your Warranty, Update or Support Period ends. Those periods govern the services we owe you, not your right to keep using the Product.

3.3 We license the Product to you. We do not sell it. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

3.4 If you buy as an agency, integrator or freelancer on behalf of a client, you may install the Product on that client's Installation. The license then belongs to that Installation and the client is bound by this Agreement. One license still covers only one Installation.


4. Scope of one license

4.1 What one license covers

One license covers one Production Installation, regardless of:

  • (a) the CS-Cart edition or product line — Free, Standard, Ultimate, Multi-Vendor, Multi-Vendor Plus, Multi-Vendor Ultimate, or any successor or renamed edition;
  • (b) the number of storefronts or sales channels in that Installation;
  • (c) the number of storefront domains or subdomains pointing to that Installation;
  • (d) the number of vendors, administrators, staff accounts or customers;
  • (e) your traffic, catalog size, order volume or revenue.

Your license is identified by your Admin Domain, not by your storefront domains. Adding, removing or renaming a storefront does not affect your license and requires no action from you.

4.2 What requires a second license

A second CS-Cart instance is a second Installation and requires a second license. This applies even where the second instance runs on the same server, in the same hosting account, in the same control panel, or under the same registered domain. Two sets of CS-Cart files with two databases are two Installations.

4.3 Registered Test Installations

4.3.1 You may hold up to three (3) Registered Test Installations alongside your Production Installation, at no additional cost.

4.3.2 They are not automatic. Open a Helpdesk ticket with the hostname of each test copy, and we will add it to your License Key. This applies to local and containerised environments too (localhost, *.local, Docker hosts and similar): if the hostname is not on your key, the Product will not run there.

4.3.3 Conditions for each Registered Test Installation:

  • its storefronts must be closed to the public — protected by password, IP restriction, HTTP authentication, a non-public hostname or equivalent;
  • it must not be used for trading, for taking orders, or for any other commercial purpose;
  • it must be a copy of, or a work-in-progress version of, the same Installation the license belongs to — not a separate project or a different client's store.

4.3.4 This right is not limited to your Support Period. You may register, remove and replace test copies at any time for the life of the license, including years later when you need a staging copy to test a CS-Cart upgrade.

4.4 Changing your Admin Domain

4.4.1 You may change your Admin Domain — for example when moving a project from a development hostname to a live domain, rebranding, or migrating to a different domain — provided you request the change through the Helpdesk before or promptly after making it. The change is free, is not limited to your Support Period, and we do not unreasonably refuse it.

4.4.2 Changing the Admin Domain without requesting it is a material breach. The License Key is bound to your Admin Domain. If the Product is found running under a different Admin Domain, the License Key is suspended immediately and pending clarification, and the Product stops working.

4.4.3 Clearing a suspension. Contact the Helpdesk. If the change was a legitimate migration of the same Installation held by the same licensee, we replace the domain recorded against your License Key at no charge, your key is reactivated, and the license continues unaffected. If the Product has in fact been moved to a different business, a different client, or an additional Installation, the license is terminated under section 20 without refund.

4.4.4 Moving to a different server, hosting provider or IP address, without changing the Admin Domain, requires no request and no action.

4.5 Transfer of the license

4.5.1 The license is otherwise non-transferable. There is one exception: if the entire Installation is transferred to another party — you sell the store, or you hand a completed project to your client — the license transfers with it.

4.5.2 Transfer requires that: (a) you or the receiving party notify us through the Helpdesk so we can re-issue or re-assign the License Key; (b) you retain no copy of the Product; and (c) the receiving party accepts this Agreement. The Warranty, Update and Support Periods do not restart on transfer.

4.5.3 A transfer that is not notified to us is treated as an unauthorized use under 4.4.2.


5. Restrictions

5.1 You may not:

  • (a) install or use the Product on more Installations than you hold licenses for;
  • (b) sell, resell, rent, lease, lend, sublicense, distribute, publish or otherwise make the Product or its files available to any third party, whether for a fee or free of charge;
  • (c) include the Product, in whole or in part, in another product, add-on, theme, distribution, template, bundle or service you supply to third parties;
  • (d) share, publish or transfer a License Key, or use a License Key you did not lawfully obtain;
  • (e) remove, obscure or alter any copyright notice, license header, author attribution or license validation code in the Product files;
  • (f) circumvent, disable, patch out, spoof or otherwise interfere with the license validation described in section 7;
  • (g) use the Product to operate a service that gives third parties the benefit of the Product's functionality on installations they control;
  • (h) use the Product for any unlawful purpose or in breach of any applicable law.

5.2 The Product is written in an interpreted language and its source is visible to you. Visibility of source code is not a grant of rights. The Product is not open-source software and is not licensed under any open-source license.


6. Your modifications

6.1 You may modify the Product files on your own licensed Installation, for use only on that Installation. You may not distribute your modified version.

6.2 Modified Product files are excluded from the Limited Warranty (section 9) and from Support (section 11) for as long as the modification is in place. We may ask you to restore the Product to its supplied state on a Registered Test Installation in order to diagnose an issue; if you decline, we may close the ticket.

6.3 Updates may overwrite your modifications. Keeping a record of your changes is your responsibility. Where CS-Cart provides an extension mechanism — hooks, overrides, a child theme, a separate add-on — we recommend you use it rather than editing our files.

6.4 Any modification or derivative you create remains subject to sections 3, 4 and 5. It creates no new license and no right to use the Product on additional Installations.


7. License Key and validation

7.1 What is transmitted. The Product contains a license validation mechanism. It periodically contacts our licensing server and transmits the following about your Installation, and nothing else:

  • the License Key;
  • the host name of your administration panel;
  • the identifier of the Product;
  • the version of the Product;
  • the CS-Cart version;
  • and whether the request originates in the administration panel or in a storefront.

The request also carries routing information addressed to our own server, which says nothing about you.

It does not transmit your customers' personal data, your order data, your catalog data, your administrators' details, your server configuration, or the addresses of any page within your Installation or your storefronts.

As with any request made over a network, the connection itself carries the IP address of the server making it. That is a property of the protocol rather than something the Product collects or sends deliberately. How we handle connection data is covered by our Privacy Policy.

Older versions. Versions of the Product released before September 2026 additionally transmitted the address of the page whose loading triggered the check. Our licensing server discards that value on receipt and does not record it. Updating the Product to a current version stops it being sent at all.

7.2 What validation controls. Validation controls whether the Product is licensed for the Installation it is running on. It is not tied to the Update Period. When your six months of updates end, the Product continues to operate normally; only the delivery of new versions stops.

7.3 What happens when validation does not succeed. Two situations are treated differently.

(a) We cannot be reached, or we answer unintelligibly. If validation cannot be completed — our licensing server is unreachable, your server has no outbound connectivity, a network fault occurs, or the response cannot be interpreted — the Product continues to operate normally for a grace period of two (2) days. That period runs from the last successful validation, or, on a new installation that has never yet received a response from us, from the first attempt. An outage on our side is our problem, not yours: if one lasts longer than the grace period, contact the Helpdesk and we will restore functionality.

(b) We answer, and the answer is negative. If our server is reachable and responds that no valid license exists for the Installation — the License Key has been revoked, or it is bound to a different Admin Domain — the Product's functionality is disabled at the next check. No grace period applies, because there is no uncertainty about the answer, and a negative result is not reversed by subsequently blocking access to our server. Where no License Key has been entered at all, the Product does not operate and makes no network request.

In both cases your CS-Cart storefront, your data, your orders and your catalog are unaffected. Disabling the Product switches off the add-on itself and nothing else. Nothing in the Product will take your store offline, alter your data, or uninstall anything. After a valid license is restored you may need to re-enable the add-on in your CS-Cart administration panel.

7.4 If your key is suspended or validation fails and you believe it is in error, open a Helpdesk ticket. We will not treat a failure outside your control as a breach by you, and we will restore functionality.

7.5 Storefront domains are not checked. Validation looks at your Admin Domain and your Registered Test Installations only. The number and names of your storefront domains are irrelevant to it, consistent with section 4.1(c).

7.6 Interfering with validation is a material breach of this Agreement (section 20).


8. Delivery

8.1 Products are delivered digitally. Delivery is complete when the Product becomes available for download in your account or is otherwise made accessible to you. No physical media is supplied.

8.2 You are responsible for downloading, storing and installing the Product, and for taking a full backup of your files and database before installing anything.

8.3 We do not install, configure or remove the Product for you unless you have separately purchased an installation service.


9. Limited warranty (6 months)

9.1 The warranty. For six (6) months from the date of your order, we warrant that the Product will operate substantially in accordance with its Product Description when installed in a Clean Environment on a Supported Version of CS-Cart.

9.2 Access is a condition of the warranty. To diagnose and correct a defect we need to work on the affected installation. By making a warranty claim you agree to provide us, on request:

  • (a) working administrator access to the affected Installation or to a Registered Test Installation reproducing the problem; and
  • (b) working FTP or SSH access to the server hosting it.

If you do not provide the access we reasonably need, we cannot diagnose or correct the issue, and the warranty does not apply to it. This is not a formality: without file-level access we cannot determine whether the cause is our code, a third-party add-on, a theme, or the server.

Note that (a) and (b) let you keep us off your production server: access to a Registered Test Installation (section 4.3) that reproduces the problem, and to the server hosting that copy, satisfies this section in full. You are responsible for taking a full backup before granting access, and for revoking the credentials afterwards.

9.3 What the warranty does not cover. The warranty does not apply where the problem is caused, wholly or partly, by:

  • (a) a conflict, incompatibility or interaction with any third-party add-on, module, theme, template, plugin, integration or script;
  • (b) any modification to the Product files, to the CS-Cart core, or to a theme;
  • (c) custom code, custom development or configuration carried out by you or anyone other than us;
  • (d) a CS-Cart version, PHP version, database version, web server, extension or hosting configuration outside the Supported Versions or the published requirements;
  • (e) a defect, bug, change or design decision in CS-Cart itself, or in any third-party service or API the Product connects to;
  • (f) upgrading CS-Cart to a version that is not a Supported Version, whether or not that version was released during your Warranty Period;
  • (g) hosting failures, server misconfiguration, resource limits, caching layers, CDNs, security modules, firewalls, malware, or data loss;
  • (h) use of the Product in a way not described in the Product Description, or failure to follow the documentation;
  • (i) cosmetic or layout differences arising from your theme rather than from the Product's own output.

9.4 Cosmetic and preference issues are not defects. A feature that is not described in the Product Description is not a defect. A feature that works as described but not as you had hoped is not a defect. Please test the demo before purchasing.

9.5 Making a claim. Open a Helpdesk ticket within the Warranty Period with your order number, the Product version, the CS-Cart version and edition, steps to reproduce the problem, and screenshots or logs. We will confirm the defect by reproducing it, either from your description or on your installation.

9.6 Your exclusive remedy, and when the clock starts. We will correct a covered defect within seven (7) days, at no charge, by a patch, an Update, or a workaround that achieves substantially the described functionality.

That seven-day period begins only on the latest of the following, all three of which must have occurred:

  • (i) we have reproduced the defect ourselves;
  • (ii) we have established that the cause lies in the Product and not in CS-Cart itself, a third-party add-on, a theme, custom code, or the server environment; and
  • (iii) we hold working administrator and FTP or SSH access under 9.2.

The period is suspended for any time during which we are waiting on information, access or a response from you, and resumes when you supply it. If we determine that we cannot correct the defect, we will terminate the license and refund what you paid for it under section 12. This is your sole and exclusive remedy for breach of this section.

9.7 Third-party conflicts. Where the cause is a conflict under 9.3(a), we will tell you what we found. We are not obliged to fix it under the warranty, but we will normally quote for a paid compatibility fix (section 14). A third-party conflict is not a refund ground — see 12.3(b).


10. Updates (6 months), and renewal

10.1 For six (6) months from the date of your order you may download all Updates we release for the Product, at no additional cost. Updates are made available in your account; we do not install them for you.

10.2 Updates may include bug fixes, security fixes, compatibility work for Supported Versions, and improvements we choose to make. We do not promise any particular feature, release schedule or number of releases.

10.3 We are not obliged to make the Product compatible with CS-Cart versions released after your purchase, or with any third-party add-on or theme. Where we do add support for a new CS-Cart version in an Update released within your Update Period, that version becomes a Supported Version for you.

10.4 When the Update Period ends, your license continues unchanged. The Product keeps working. You simply stop receiving new versions.

10.5 Renewal. You may renew at any time. One renewal buys a further six (6) months of updates and support together — you do not buy the two separately. Renewal starts at 30% of the Product's list price current at the time of renewal. The exact price depends on the Product and is confirmed on request through the Helpdesk.

10.6 Renewal after a gap. A renewal runs for six months from the date you buy it. You do not pay for the period you skipped: if your updates lapsed two years ago, one renewal at the current price gives you six months of updates and support from today, and immediate access to every version released in the meantime.

10.7 Upgrading CS-Cart after your Update Period has ended. If you upgrade CS-Cart to a newer version and the Product no longer works, and we have released a version of the Product that resolves it, you obtain that version by purchasing a renewal under 10.5. You do not need to buy a new license. If no such version exists, section 9 does not apply — the CS-Cart version is outside your Supported Versions — and any work would be quoted under section 14.

10.8 Every Update is part of the Product and is licensed on these same terms. Installing an Update creates no new license and restarts no period.

10.9 End of life. We may discontinue a Product at any time. Your perpetual license and your existing installation are unaffected, but no further Updates or Support will be issued after your current periods end, and renewal may become unavailable.


11. Support (6 months)

11.1 For six (6) months from the date of your order we provide technical support for the Product through the Helpdesk, in English or Russian. Support is renewed together with updates under 10.5.

11.2 Hours. Monday to Friday, 09:00–18:00 (GMT+3), excluding public holidays. Target first response: one (1) business day. Response targets are goals, not contractual commitments.

11.3 Support covers:

  • installation and configuration guidance for the Product;
  • questions about the Product's documented behavior and settings;
  • investigation and correction of defects covered by section 9;
  • License Key matters: activation, registering test installations, Admin Domain changes, transfers.

License Key matters under the last bullet are handled at any time, for the life of the license, whether or not your Support Period is current.

11.4 Support does not cover:

  • customization, new features, or changes to the Product's behavior;
  • resolving conflicts with third-party add-ons or themes beyond identifying the cause;
  • CS-Cart itself: core bugs, core configuration, upgrades, data migration, or general CS-Cart usage questions;
  • server, hosting, DNS, SSL, email, performance or security administration;
  • your custom code, your theme, or work done by third parties;
  • training, consultancy or design work;
  • work on Installations for which you hold no valid license.

11.5 What we need from you. Reproducible steps, your order number, environment details, and the access described in 9.2 where the issue requires it. You are responsible for backups before any change. We may close a ticket that has been inactive for fourteen (14) days pending information from you; you may reopen it within your Support Period.

11.6 Fair use. Support is for reasonable use in connection with the licensed Product. We may decline requests that are abusive, that amount to unpaid development work, or that concern products or installations we did not license to you.


12. Refunds

12.1 Products are delivered digitally and can be assessed before purchase through the demo, screenshots and Product Description. Refunds are available only on the two grounds in 12.2.

12.2 Refund grounds.

(a) License never activated. Your License Key has never been activated, the Product has never run on any Installation, and you request the refund within fourteen (14) days of the date of your order. We verify this against our activation records.

(b) Defect we could not resolve. You reported a defect covered by the Limited Warranty during the Warranty Period; we confirmed it as a covered defect; you provided the access required by 9.2; and we were nonetheless unable to correct it or provide an acceptable workaround within the seven-day period defined in 9.6, or we told you we could not correct it at all.

12.3 Not refund grounds. No refund is available where:

  • (a) you changed your mind, no longer need the Product, or found an alternative, after activating the License Key;
  • (b) the problem is caused by a conflict or incompatibility with a third-party add-on, module, theme or customization. The remedy is a paid compatibility fix under section 14;
  • (c) the problem is caused by any exclusion in section 9.3;
  • (d) you want a feature that was not described in the Product Description;
  • (e) you are running a CS-Cart version that is not a Supported Version;
  • (f) you did not provide the administrator and FTP/SSH access required by 9.2, or withdrew it before we completed the work;
  • (g) the purchase is for custom development, a compatibility fix, an installation service, a renewal, or any service rather than a Product license;
  • (h) the license has been terminated for breach (section 20), including unauthorized change of Admin Domain under 4.4.2.

12.4 Process. Open a Helpdesk ticket stating your order number and the ground you rely on. We will confirm our decision within ten (10) business days of receiving everything we need. We may verify activation and validation records.

12.5 Effect. On refund your license terminates immediately. You must uninstall and delete all copies of the Product from every Installation and Registered Test Installation, and confirm to us that you have done so.

12.6 How a refund is paid.

  • Marketplace purchases: through the marketplace, under its own procedure (section 13).
  • Cryptocurrency purchases: in the same cryptocurrency and network, to an address you specify, in the same number of units you originally paid. We do not compensate for any change in the exchange rate between purchase and refund, in either direction, and network and transaction fees are borne by you. You are solely responsible for the accuracy of the refund address; a transfer to an address you supplied incorrectly cannot be reversed and discharges our obligation.

12.7 Chargebacks and disputes. If you believe you are entitled to a refund, open a ticket first. Initiating a chargeback, payment dispute or marketplace dispute without first raising a Helpdesk ticket is a material breach: your license terminates automatically and your account may be suspended.

12.8 Statutory rights of consumers. If you buy as a consumer and the law of your country of residence gives you rights that cannot be excluded by contract — for example a statutory right of withdrawal for digital content — those rights are not affected by this section. At checkout you are asked to consent expressly to immediate delivery and to acknowledge that, once download is made available, any statutory withdrawal right is lost. If you do not give that consent, we cannot supply the Product immediately.


13. Purchases through the CS-Cart Marketplace or other authorized channels

13.1 If you purchased through the CS-Cart Marketplace or another authorized reseller rather than directly from the Site, this Agreement still governs your license, warranty, updates and support.

13.2 Payment, invoicing, taxes and the mechanics of any refund are handled by that marketplace under its own terms, and its refund windows and procedures may differ from section 12. Where its rules conflict with section 12 on payment or refund mechanics, its rules govern the payment; sections 3 to 11 continue to govern the license.

13.3 Raise defect reports and support requests through the channel where you purchased, so that we can verify your license.


14. Paid customization and compatibility work

14.1 Where a request falls outside the warranty or support scope — a conflict with a third-party add-on or theme, a new feature, an adaptation to your custom code, or work on a CS-Cart version outside your Supported Versions — we may, at our discretion, offer to carry out the work for a fee. We are under no obligation to offer or accept such work, and availability may be constrained by payment channels (section 19.4).

14.2 Such work is quoted, agreed and paid for separately, in advance unless we agree otherwise. Fees for customization work are non-refundable once work has begun.

14.3 Unless agreed otherwise in writing, code we produce in such work is part of the Product, owned by us, and licensed to you on these same terms for the same Installation.


15. Ownership and intellectual property

15.1 The Product, all Updates, and all intellectual property rights in them are and remain the exclusive property of CS-Market and its licensors. This Agreement transfers no ownership.

15.2 If you send us suggestions, feature requests, bug reports or other feedback, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free right to use it in our products without restriction, attribution or compensation. You are not obliged to send us feedback.

15.3 CS-Cart and Multi-Vendor are trademarks of their respective owner. We use those names solely to identify compatibility. Our status as a CS-Cart partner does not mean the Products are developed, endorsed, warranted or supported by the CS-Cart developer.

15.4 The Product may include third-party or open-source components, which remain subject to their own licenses, supplied with the Product. Nothing here limits your rights under those licenses.


16. Disclaimer of warranties

16.1 Except for the express Limited Warranty in section 9, the Product is provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE".

16.2 TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS AND REPRESENTATIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, OR ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR TRADE USAGE.

16.3 We do not warrant that the Product will be uninterrupted or error-free, that it will meet your specific requirements, that it will be compatible with any third-party add-on or theme not named in the Product Description, or that all defects will be corrected.

16.4 Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so parts of 16.2 may not apply to you. Where an implied warranty cannot be excluded, it is limited to the duration of the Warranty Period.


17. Limitation of liability

17.1 TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFIT, REVENUE, SALES, BUSINESS, GOODWILL, REPUTATION, DATA, ORDERS OR ANTICIPATED SAVINGS, OR FOR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION OR THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE SOFTWARE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE PRODUCT OR THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, NEGLIGENCE, STRICT LIABILITY OR OTHERWISE, AND EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

17.2 OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE PRODUCT AND THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID US FOR THE LICENSE TO WHICH THE CLAIM RELATES.

17.3 The allocation of risk in sections 16 and 17 reflects the price of the Products and is a fundamental basis of this Agreement. These limitations apply even if a remedy fails of its essential purpose.

17.4 Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

17.5 You are responsible for maintaining current backups of your files and database. We are not liable for data loss where a current backup would have prevented or mitigated it.


18. Indemnities

18.1 By us. If a third party claims that the Product, used in accordance with this Agreement, infringes its intellectual property rights, we will at our option and expense procure the right for you to continue using it, modify or replace it so it is non-infringing, or terminate the license and refund what you paid less a reasonable amount for the period of use. This is our entire liability for IP infringement. It does not apply where the claim arises from your modifications, from combining the Product with anything not supplied by us, or from use outside this Agreement.

18.2 By you. You will indemnify us against any claim, loss, liability and reasonable costs arising from your breach of section 5, your use of the Product in breach of law, or content or configurations you introduce.


19. Fees, taxes and payment

19.1 Prices are as published at the time of your order. We may change prices at any time; a change does not affect a completed order.

19.2 Prices are exclusive of VAT, sales tax, withholding tax, customs duty or similar charges unless stated otherwise at checkout. You are responsible for determining, reporting and paying any tax arising in your jurisdiction from your purchase or use of the Product.

19.3 Full payment is required before a license takes effect.

19.4 Payment methods. Products may be purchased through the CS-Cart Marketplace or by cryptocurrency payment on the Site. Where you pay in cryptocurrency: the amount due is the fiat price shown, converted at the rate quoted at checkout; the payment is complete when the required number of network confirmations is reached; you bear all network and transaction fees; and an underpayment or a payment to an incorrect address may not be recoverable. Available payment methods may change.


20. Term and termination

20.1 This Agreement takes effect on acceptance and continues for as long as you hold a license.

20.2 We may terminate your license with immediate effect for material breach, including: use on more Installations than licensed; changing your Admin Domain without a request under 4.4; an unnotified transfer under 4.5.3; distribution or resale of the Product or a License Key; interference with license validation; or a chargeback contrary to 12.7. Where the breach is capable of cure and is not one of the above, we will give fourteen (14) days' notice to cure before terminating.

20.3 You may terminate at any time by uninstalling and deleting all copies. Termination by you gives no right to a refund except under section 12.

20.4 On termination for any reason you must, within three (3) business days, stop using the Product and delete all copies from all Installations and Registered Test Installations. We may request written confirmation.

20.5 Sections 5, 12.5, 15, 16, 17, 18, 20.4, 23 and 24 survive termination.


21. Compliance with law

21.2 You confirm you are not located in, and will not use the Product on behalf of anyone located in, a jurisdiction to which supply of the Product would be prohibited by applicable law, and that you are not a person with whom we are prohibited by applicable law from dealing.


22. Changes to this Agreement

22.1 We may amend this Agreement for future orders by publishing a revised document on the Site with a new effective date.

22.2 Changes are not retroactive. The version in force on the date of your order continues to govern that license, except where a change is required by law or is purely to your benefit. We do not use amendments to shorten, restrict or revoke a perpetual license you have already bought.

22.3 Superseded versions are archived and available on request.


23. Governing law and disputes

23.1 This Agreement is governed by the law of the Russian Federation, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

23.2 Any dispute arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, including any question about its existence, interpretation, validity or termination, shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Arbitrazh Court of the City of St. Petersburg and the Leningrad Region, Russian Federation. Where a dispute falls outside that court's competence — in particular a dispute with a purchaser who is a private individual rather than a business — it shall be submitted to the competent court of general jurisdiction at our place of registration in St. Petersburg, Russian Federation.

23.3 Before commencing proceedings, each party will attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute by raising it in writing through the Helpdesk or at manager@cs-market.com and allowing thirty (30) days for resolution.

23.4 If you are a consumer, nothing in this section deprives you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of your country of habitual residence, or of the right to bring proceedings in the courts of that country where that right cannot be excluded.
