As long as you comply with the terms of this Agreement and pay all relevant fees Storbie will allow you to be a User. This right is not exclusive to you and cannot be transferred by you to anyone else. This right is limited by these terms (including our rights to end this Agreement) and any other limitations that we may inform you of from time to time. You acknowledge that this Agreement (as applicable) will apply to you while you receive any Service from Storbie including in the event that you become a User in a different form or forms during the term of your Agreement with Storbie. You will only be bound by those terms that apply to the type of User you are at any particular time. For example, a Storbie Customer Shopper will not be bound by the provisions relating only to a Storbie Customer. However, should you become a Storbie Customer after first being a Storbie Customer Shopper then you will become bound by such provisions. Storbie will use its reasonable efforts to ensure that the Services are properly provided to you. However, we do not guarantee or represent that these Services will be error-free, uninterrupted, continuously available, secure, private, or free from viruses or malicious programs or compatible with any hardware or software you might use. Storbie is not responsible or liable to you for any delay or failure caused by anything beyond its reasonable control (including where Storbie needs to carry out maintenance that will interrupt access to the Services provided by Storbie). Storbie reserves the right to make changes over time to the provision of Services to you or the Storbie Websites, including to the format, layout, look-and-feel, functionality of websites and to any Content included on a Storbie Customer Website. Storbie reserves the right to view any aspect of the Service provided to you including any part of a Storbie Customer Website owned by you and details of any orders.
You acknowledge that, if you are acquiring a Storbie Customer Website you are acquiring the website in trade and accordingly, to the extent permitted by law, the provisions of the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (“CGA”) and sections 9, 12A, 13 and 14(1) of the Fair Trading Act (“FTA”) do not apply.
Where the Services, other than the acquisition of a Storbie Customer Website, are being provided to (and acquired by) you in trade, the provisions of the CGA and sections 9, 12A, 13 and 14(1) of the FTA do not apply.
As a Storbie Customer Shopper you acknowledge that you are purchasing products or services from the Storbie Customer (and not Storbie, who is simply providing a platform through which Storbie Customer Shoppers may purchase products or services from Storbie Customers). As such you have no rights as against Storbie (and Storbie shall have no liability to you) whatsoever in connection with any purchase made from a Storbie Customer Website, including but not limited to, any claim under the CGA or sections 9, 12A, 13 and 14(1) of the FTA.

We may require you to set up an automatic payment to Storbie or provide us with your credit card details so that we can debit your account for the applicable fees. You hereby authorise Storbie to debit your account in this way. If you provide a refund to a third party for any reason, we are not liable to refund any transaction fees we may have charged you.

14. Limitation of Liability
The Services provided by Storbie are provided on an “as is”, “with all faults” and “as available” basis to the fullest extent permitted by law. Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, Storbie and its suppliers make no warranty of any kind regarding the Services, and Storbie Customer Website or any Storbie Website, whether express, implied, statutory or otherwise, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular use or non-infringement. Storbie does not guarantee that the provision of or access to your Storbie Customer Website, a Storbie Website or any other Service will be uninterrupted, error-free or free of harmful components or that any Content or other data uploaded to your Storbie Customer Website or a Storbie Website will be secure or not otherwise lost or damaged. You agree to bear the risks of conducting your business on this basis. That means, for example (but without limitation), we are not liable to you or anyone else if your Storbie Customer Website or a Storbie Website cannot be accessed for any reason, if your order or the order of a Storbie Customer Shopper is not fulfilled or is recorded incorrectly in a website, if we make changes to the content on your Storbie Customer Website, or if the Services cannot be provided to you for any reason.
Storbie shall have no liability whatsoever for checking or verifying the Content or nature of any information supplied to them or to any Storbie Customer by a Storbie Partner.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Storbie and our suppliers, directors, employees, contractors and agents (“Related Parties”) will not be liable to you, or any third party, for any loss arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or the use of, or reliance on, the Services, Content or Storbie Websites, including but not limited to: loss or damage to information or data from any cause; breach of security or privacy; loss of profit, opportunity, or saving; or incidental, indirect, special or consequential loss or damage. If Storbie or our Related Parties are liable to you for any reason, and for any reason we have not been able to exclude that liability under this Agreement, then the maximum aggregate liability of Storbie and our Related Parties (together) to you for anything we or Related Parties have done or not done (including any breach of this Agreement) will be limited to, at our option, the supplying of the Services again or payment of the cost of having the Services supplied again. The maximum aggregate liability above, and any exclusions or disclaimers of liability in this Agreement, shall apply however liability arises, whether in contract, in tort (including negligence), for breach of statutory duty, or otherwise. Except as expressly set out in this Agreement, all representations and warranties, express or implied, are excluded to the maximum extent allowed by law.
15. Changes to These Terms
From time to time, Storbie may change the terms of this Agreement (including the fees and payment terms) or issue additional terms. We will take all reasonable steps to give you at least 5 days’ notice in writing before any material changes take effect. Your continued acceptance of the provision of Services to you after such notice confirms you accept the amended terms.
16. Suspending or Limiting Service
Storbie may suspend the provision of Services to you at any time, for any reason. Where you are a Storbie Customer, we may require you to amend any aspect of a website, for example (but without limitation) we may require you to change a product description or remove Content. If you fail to amend your website in accordance with our request, we reserve the right to (but are not required to) amend your website to satisfy such a request. During the period of any suspension of Services you must still pay all applicable Storbie’s fees. However, we may at our sole discretion choose to credit you with a portion of the fees that were subject to the suspension or limitation.

If we terminate or suspend access to any website that you own or manage, we will use our reasonable endeavours to supply you with information relating to any unfilled orders.

Storbie may also subcontract any (or all) of its obligations under this Agreement to any person on notice to you.
You agree that Storbie may disclose your (or your customers’ or Users) information (including personal data) at any time on a confidential basis to any potential assignee or other person with whom we anticipate entering into contractual relations in connection with this Agreement (whether or not that information was obtained in confidence and whether or not that information is publicly available), and you consent to the transfer by Storbie of any of your (or your customers’ or Users’) information to an assignee of Storbie’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, provided such assignee access and uses such information in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the Privacy Policy.
