Each product is limited to one single website license. Licensed websites will receive automatic theme updates. GivingPress retains the right to change the terms and conditions and licensing of this site and our themes at any time without notice.

GivingPress reserves the right at any time and from time to time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service (or any part thereof) with or without notice. You agree that GivingPress shall not be liable to you or to any third party for any modification, suspension or discontinuance of the Service.

GivingPress may change, add or remove any part of this Agreement, or any other terms associated with the use of the site, at any time. Any changes shall become part of the Agreement and shall apply as soon as such a notice is posted. By continuing to use GivingPress properties after the notice is posted, you are indicating your acceptance of those changes.

5. Support

Support is provided for any service, theme or product purchased from GivingPress for as long as the support subscription is active. Support includes the rectifying of issues arising from packaged theme features, bug fixes and basic usage questions. We do not provide support for our free themes; the use or issues arising from the use of 3rd party plugins; troubleshooting issues occurring in versions of Internet Explorer older than version 9; WordPress itself; or customization. Questions and inquiries should be directed to our contact form as support requests.

We are unable to provide support that requires us to view websites with questionable content. Such content includes, but is not limited to, pornography, prostitution, racist content, possible scams, etc.

Note: Support is offered Monday through Friday, 9AM to 6PM EST (UTC/GMT-5). Support requests are answered in order received, with priority support member questions being answered first.

6. Refunds

We do not offer refunds for digital product sales or subscription renewal fees. All sales are final. If there is an issue regarding a theme, we will address the problem. Unfortunately, there is no effective way for us to both combat fraud and issue refunds. We will be happy to answer questions regarding our themes before your purchase to ensure it will meet your needs. Thank you for your understanding.

7. Licensing

The CSS, XHTML, PHP, design and any other elements of the products purchased from GivingPress are copyrighted by Invulu, Inc. The themes available for sale on our site are developed for individual installations of the WordPress platform.

The content (copy, images, video, etc.) within our site and theme demos is royalty free and/or has been purchased by and licensed to GivingPress. Such content is subject to its respective original license and permitted for use only by GivingPress. In accordance with those licenses, GivingPress can not and do not authorize the use of any licensed content by any customers or on any other sites not owned by GivingPress.

8. Theme Compatibility

Currently our themes are designed to function properly with WordPress 4.7 and higher. It is our job to make sure the themes are up to date with the latest versions of WordPress. We cannot guarantee they will work properly on older installations of WordPress. We cannot guarantee the compatibility of our themes with all third party software and plugins. If a conflict does arise, we will do our best resolve the situation. Moreover, we cannot guarantee the themes will function correctly after modification to the code, or a failure to install the theme or WordPress properly.

In addition, individually purchased themes from GivingPress are designed to work within our managed hosting platform, and we cannot guarantee that they will function properly with every hosting environment.

9. Affiliates

Affiliates will be paid each month for valid referrals generated from 2 months prior. You must have a verified PayPal account and accumulate at least 3 sales or $150 in affiliate earnings to receive your first affiliate payment from GivingPress. Also, you must submit your W-9 or W-8BEN tax form, as well as your PayPal email address to affiliates@givingpress.com in order to receive payment.

We do not pay affiliates for the download of free themes, as there is no revenue generated. We do not pay affiliates for unsuccessful transactions. We do not support spamming or the use of fake promotions as an affiliate. Abuse of the GivingPress affiliate program will result in nonpayment and removal from the program. We maintain close vigilance on each transaction and track where all sales are coming from. We highly encourage and reward affiliates that promote GivingPress, but do not support dishonest sales tactics. Unacceptable tactics which will result in nonpayment and possible termination include, but are not limited to:

  • Advertising coupon codes – including temporary promotional codes, expired codes, inaccurate discounts, or inaccurate payment details of any kind. Any coupon promotions are created for the benefit of our customers, not our affiliates.
  • Misrepresenting or inaccurately describing GivingPress services, products, brand, or trademark.
  • Misleading referred users in a manner which implies the inclusion of any product, service, or experience beyond that expressly depicted on givingpress.com.
  • Affiliates that sign up for the program and refer themselves for a discount on our products.
  • Failure to have your PayPal email address within our records in the form of an affiliate application or email notification, as we are likely to suspect fraud in this scenario.
  • Fraudulent form leads.

If we have any reason to suspect fraud the affiliate will not be paid and the account will be terminated.
