Terms of service

Draft. These terms are a starting point for review by Sharkbyte Corp and its legal counsel, and are not in force until published without this notice.

Who we are

This website is operated by Sharkbyte Corp ("Sharkbyte", "we"). You can reach us through the contact form.

Purchases

Licenses of Sharkhex Spaces, Sharkhex Delivery and Sharkhex Classifieds, and the hosted plans of Sharkhex Spaces, are sold through Link, the merchant of record service of Stripe. Link takes the payment, charges the sales tax or VAT of your country, sends the receipt and answers questions about billing, under the terms its checkout shows. A license is granted by Sharkbyte under the license terms; a hosted plan is provided by Sharkbyte under the terms below.

Refunds

Licenses and hosted plans are not refundable, except where the law requires a refund.

Hosted Sharkhex Spaces

  • The plans. A hosted plan is a monthly subscription to a Sharkhex Spaces platform that Sharkbyte runs on its servers, with the platform's administration in your hands. Each plan sets how many people may be online at once and whether meetings are recorded: up to 30 people without recordings, or up to 75 people with recordings, each kept for 45 days and then deleted. The plan's limits are set by Sharkbyte and cannot be changed from the platform's administration. For more people or other limits, write to us.
  • Addresses. The platform answers at an address under sharkhex.com, and a multi-tenant platform's organisations at addresses under that one. You may point a domain of your own at the platform at no charge.
  • Renewal and cancellation. A plan renews every month until it is cancelled. You may cancel at any time from your Link account; the platform keeps running until the end of the month you paid for.
  • Failed payments. When a renewal cannot be charged, Link tries again for a while; a plan whose payment never succeeds ends.
  • After the end. When a plan ends, the platform stops. Its data is kept for 30 days, so that a renewed plan starts where it stopped, and is then deleted.
  • Your content. What you and your users put on the platform stays yours. Sharkbyte processes it only to run the platform, on your behalf.
  • Fair use. Sharkbyte may suspend a platform that is used to break the law or that endangers its servers or other clients, after notice by email where the danger allows it.
  • Liability. The platform is provided as it is. Sharkbyte's liability for a hosted plan is limited to what you paid for it in the last 12 months, except where the law does not allow such a limit.
