Terms of Use

We, the people at Shoeboxed, want you to enjoy the time you spend using our services. In order to do this we need to lay a few ground rules so that everything can work more smoothly for everyone. And thus was born our Terms of Service.

When you (“you,” or the “User”) use Shoeboxed’s services, products, and web site (collectively referred to in this document as the “Services”), you enter into a legal agreement with Shoeboxed, Inc. (also referred to as “Shoeboxed”). This page details the agreement and explains the terms of that agreement.

Unless we agree with you in writing that your individual terms and conditions are somehow different from the ones outlined in this document (henceforth called the “Terms”), you are bound by this document when using the Services.

When using the Services, the Terms form a legally binding agreement between you and Shoeboxed. Take time to read them carefully.

Shoeboxed maintains the right to change or replace the Terms at any time, at its sole discretion. You are responsible for checking and reviewing the Terms regularly to keep updated to any such changes.

Accepting the Terms

Before using the Services, you must accept the Terms, and you may not use the Services if you do not accept the Terms.

There are two ways to accept the Terms:

1. by accepting the Terms when Shoeboxed makes this available to you (i.e. during user registration).
2. by using the Services in any capacity. When you start using the Services, Shoeboxed will assume that you have accepted the Terms. Once you use the Services you are bound by the Terms until you terminate your relationship with Shoeboxed.
