Xilifox offers this website, including all information, tools and services available from this site to you, the user, conditioned upon your acceptance of all terms, conditions, policies and notices stated here.
Plugin licensing
Purchasing a plugin from Xilifox Plugins gives you non-exclusive limited license to use the plugin in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.
Software license
The software for all of our plugins is licensed under the GNU General Public License v3.0 or later.
Plugin license key
In addition to the software license, you will receive a non-transferable plugin license key.
For annual licenses, plugin license keys are valid for 1 year from the date of purchase. They must be renewed each year in order to remain valid. Prior to the expiry of the plugin license, we will contact you with details on how to renew.
For free trial licenses, the plugin license key will initially be valid for 14 days free of charge. If payment is made after 14 days then it will convert into an annual license which will be valid for 1 year from the end of the free trial.
For lifetime licenses, plugin license keys are valid forever and never need to be renewed.
You need a valid, active license key in order to access updates and support for the plugin.
You may not share, sell or give away access to your license key. License keys are only transferrable by contacting us to request the transfer to a new owner.
We reserve the right to revoke any license keys that have not been used in accordance with these Terms and Conditions.
Annual subscription
When you purchase a plugin on a yearly plan (which includes all free trials), an annual subscription will automatically be created using your chosen payment method. If your subscription remains active then the plugin license key will automatically be renewed each year so that you can continue accessing updates and support with no break in service. You will automatically be billed using your original payment method when the license renews each year.
You can cancel your subscription at any time, either via your payment provider (e.g. by logging into your PayPal account and cancelling the recurring payment profile), from your account, or by contacting Xilifox direct.
For annual licenses, if you cancel your subscription before your license key expires then you will continue receiving updates and support until it expires at the end of the 1-year period.
After your annual license key expires, you can continue using the plugin but will not be able to receive updates or support. There are no guarantees that the plugin will continue working with future versions of WordPress or other plugins such as WooCommerce.
If your annual license key expires then you can re-purchase the plugin at any time. This will resume your access to updates and support under a new license key.
For free trials, if you cancel your subscription before the free trial ends then you can continue using the plugin and receiving updates and support until the end of the free trial; after which the plugin will stop working on your site. To reactivate it and continue using the plugin, you must purchase a paid plan and get a new license key.
Lifetime license
When you purchase a lifetime license, it will remain valid indefinitely and there is no expiration date. You are not required to renew the plugin in order to continue receiving access to support and updates.
You will have access to all future updates that are released for the plugin. You will also receive access to support in using the plugin for as long as it is owned by Xilifox.
Plugin delivery
On receipt of successful payment, you will be able to access the plugin files and license key directly from the order confirmation page. You will also receive an email with this information. You will be able to access the plugin files and license key from your account for as long as you hold a valid license key for the plugin.
If your license key expires or is otherwise revoked or refunded, then download access will be discontinued until the license key is renewed.
Automatic plugin updates
Automatic updates are available for as long as you hold a valid and active license key for the plugin. Updates will be made available to you from the WordPress dashboard.
