Our Services
Our services are described in detail on our website.
We offer Marketing, Logistics and e-commerce development services. Furthermore, we develop and make available to you apps which are designed to enhance your e-commerce platform. Our eCommerce apps are built to provide additional value-add features to your existing storefront. In some cases, our apps may permit you to receive, sell, and otherwise use material ("Uploaded Content") which is uploaded by third parties ("Content Uploaders"). We can also custom develop apps for your store, provide webmaster services, and many other e-commerce services. You can access information on our current apps at hoculus.com.
The specifics of each aspect of the Services (including technical details, support and pricing information) are posted on our website, as we may amend them from time to time, as well as in any applicable statement of work we may issue to you, in respect of the Services. Where you engage us to custom develop Services, the details of our engagement will be governed by any additional documents and agreements as part of that engagement. We take reasonable efforts to explain each Serviceʼs features to you on our website, but we canʼt guarantee a Service will look or perform exactly like it appears on a demo page. If you have any questions about any terms or details of any of our Services, please reach out to us at the contact information below. Hoculus shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide technical support for Services. We are not responsible for providing technical support for any apps, products, or services provided to you by third parties.
Payments & Terms
Sales are finalized once you make your purchase. If we are required to pay any chargeback fees in connection with your use of our services, you agree to compensate us for those fees. We will typically bill you monthly. You are required to pay the amount billed within 15 days.
All Services are provided on a per store basis, meaning you will have to purchase Services on an individual store basis. For example, if you have two stores, and you wish to use one of our apps for both stores, you must purchase two subscriptions to that app.
Unless otherwise indicated, the sale is finalized when you conclude the purchase of the Service, and your method of payment will be charged following your predefined billing cycle on that eCommerce platform. When you make a payment, you confirm that you are entitled to use the method which you have used to make the payment. All payments to Hoculus do not include applicable sales, goods and services, harmonized, or any other taxes or fees, which may be charged by governmental authorities. Such taxes and / or fees will be added to the total amount you are required to pay and billed to your method of payment. Payment of these taxes and / or fees will be your sole responsibility. You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Hoculus and its officers, directors, subsidiaries, affiliates, employees, representatives, agents, licensors and their respective successors and assigns (collectively, its "Others"), against any chargeback costs (plus any taxes or related fees) which we are required to pay, as a result of a payment dispute with you or in relation to a payment you have made to us for the Services.
In the event that you are billed directly by us, in most cases, you will be billed in advance of your payment period, typically monthly. In some cases, such as for overages, you may be billed in the month after the overages incurred. You must make all payments, without any setoff or deduction for any reason, within fifteen (15) days of the date of your invoice in a manner determined by us in our sole discretion.
All payments are made payable in EUR or USD.
Trial Period
If we offer you a trial period, you will not be charged for using the applicable apps during that period. These terms apply during any trial period. If you continue to use the services after the trial period ends, you will be charged for such use and these terms continue to apply.
We may offer a trial period for certain Services before being required to purchase or subscribe. The duration and specific terms of the trial period will be published to our websites and during the Services install process. You will not be charged for the Services until the trial period has expired. You agree that even though you may have access to the Services on a trial basis, free of charge, you will be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Your continued use of the Services following the conclusion of the trial period constitutes your consent to be charged for those Services and to the provisions in this Agreement.
