# 2. Scope

You acknowledge that GoDaddy Poynt may, solely on your behalf, and not on GoDaddy Poynt’s behalf, display and make your Apps available for download and purchase by End Users from the Store. In order to use the Store to distribute your Apps, you are required to provide complete and accurate information in the Developer Portal. This Agreement governs Apps you choose to make available to End Users for a fee or for free.

# 3. Pricing and Payments

3.1 Payment Account. In order to charge a fee for your App, you must have a valid Payment Account under a separate agreement with a Payment Processor. If you already have a Payment Account with a Payment Processor before signing up for the Store, then the terms of that agreement between you and the Payment Processor will apply except in the event of a conflict with this Agreement (in which case the terms of this Agreement shall prevail).

3.2 Fees

3.2.1 GoDaddy Poynt will charge you a minimum “per download” fee of twenty percent (20%) of the Net Revenue for each download of your App (the “Download Fee”). Where applicable, GoDaddy Poynt, by itself or through authorized business partners (including credit card operators or payment processors), will add applicable taxes in the price charged to End Users. In the event that your App is transaction based in any way, you will contact GoDaddy Poynt in order to facilitate your payment and pricing structure, and your right to charge on a transaction basis will be subject to executing an addendum to this Agreement detailing such agreement.

3.2.2 GoDaddy Poynt (i) may charge you a monthly fee in an amount equal to up to fifty percent (50%) of the gross revenue generated by each App that an End User purchased and is billed outside of the Store, in breach of the requirements set forth in Section 6.4.2 of the Agreement (the “Outside the Store Fee”) and (ii) reserves the right, in its sole discretion and upon prior notice to you, to charge you a distribution fee for any Apps that are downloaded by End Users for free (the “Distribution Fee” and collectively with the Download Fee and Outside the Store Fee the “Fees”). GoDaddy Poynt reserves the right to amend the amount of the Fees from time to time upon prior written notice to you.

3.3 Merchant of Record. You, and not GoDaddy Poynt, are the merchant of the App that you make available to End Users. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, GoDaddy Poynt will act as your payment agent, and payments made by End Users to you for Apps will be received by GoDaddy Poynt and passed on to you through the Payment Account in $USD only (for example, if the price for your App is in CAD, GoDaddy Poynt will convert such CAD payments into USD prior to passing on to you). GoDaddy Poynt will withhold the Fees from any amounts owed to you and apportioned between GoDaddy Poynt and the Payment Processor. Where either GoDaddy Poynt or the Payment Processor is required by applicable (local) legislation where you are established, to withhold any taxes (“Withholding Taxes”) on payments made or received by anyone of them, GoDaddy Poynt will also deduct an amount equal to such Withholding Taxes from the sales price paid by End User. For the avoidance of doubt, Withholding Taxes include, but are not limited to, any and all tax that shall be withheld or similar obligations on cross-border payments, imposed by Applicable Laws. The difference between the Fees and the amount equal to any Withholding Taxes will be remitted to you. You are responsible for proving to GoDaddy Poynt the place where you provide services for tax purposes. If GoDaddy Poynt or its service providers do not receive such documentation, GoDaddy Poynt will withhold the domestic tax rate of the Withholding Taxes.

3.4 Taxes.

3.4.1 Where applicable, GoDaddyPoynt, by itself or through authorized business partners (including credit card operators or payment processors), will add applicable taxes in the price charged to End Users for your Apps. You may set the price for your Apps in the currencies permitted by the Payment Processor. GoDaddy Poynt may display the price of an App to End Users in their native currency for information purposes only, but the currency rates or currency conversion applicable to End Users will be Payment Processor’s responsibility and GoDaddy Poynt shall not be held liable for the accuracy thereof.

3.4.2 GoDaddy Poynt and/or the Payment Processor (and not you) will be responsible for applying and collecting and remitting the taxes to the competent taxing authority. If GoDaddy Poynt collects and remits value added taxes on payments made by End Users (if so required from GoDaddy Poynt by applicable local law) and this collection fulfills the applicable requirements for value added taxes on those payments, such taxes will not be passed on to you by GoDaddyPoynt. Where GoDaddy Poynt is required to collect and remit taxes as described in this Section, you and GoDaddy Poynt will recognize a supply from you to GoDaddy Poynt for tax purposes, and you will comply with the relevant tax obligations arising from this additional supply. You hereby authorize Point to deduct the amount corresponding to the applicable taxes of any amounts to be paid to you by GoDaddy Poynt pursuant to this Agreement.

3.5 Authority to Refund. You authorize GoDaddy Poynt to give End Users a full refund of the App price or in-app transaction on your behalf if the End User requests the refund at any time within forty-eight (48) hours after the respective purchase. In all other respects, the your standard terms and conditions regarding refunds will apply provided that GoDaddy Poynt may issue a refund in its sole and reasonable discretion. End User refunds may be exclusive of taxes previously charged to users for App purchases.

3.6 Right to Audit. GoDaddy Poynt shall have the right to inspect and audit all of Developer’s accounting reports, books or records which concern this Agreement or the sale of an App to End Users (whether such sale occurs through the Store or directly with Developer). Such audit shall take place during normal business hours at Developer’s place of business. Developer shall retain all records relating to the performance of this Agreement and the sale of an App to End Users (whether such sale occurs through the Store or directly with Developer) for five (5) years after the end of the term of this Agreement.

# 4. App Support

GoDaddy Poynt will direct End Users to contact you with respect to any defects or performance issues in an App. Between you and GoDaddyPoynt, you are solely responsible for the support and maintenance of the App and for any claims about your App. GoDaddy Poynt or any of its partners or service providers shall have no responsibility to accept or control such actions. You will provide and maintain valid and accurate contact information that will be displayed on the details page of each App in the Store and made available to End Users for customer support and other legal purposes. You will respond directly to any customer support questions related to the App within up to three (3) business days or within twenty-four (24) hours for any matters classified as urgent by GoDaddy Poynt. Your failure to provide adequate information or support for your App may result in low App ratings, lesser App exposure, low sales, payment challenges and/or deletion of the App from the Store. GoDaddy Poynt will direct End Users to you when App support related questions are presented to GoDaddy Poynt. Upon GoDaddy Poynt’s request, you will promptly provide responses to technical questions from GoDaddy Poynt’s technical support team. If GoDaddy Poynt becomes aware of, and subsequently notifies you about, any security vulnerabilities, bugs, or errors in the App, you must promptly issue an update of the App as soon as reasonably practicable. If you remove the App from the Store as provided in Section 9.1 or for any reason cease to provide support services, you must notify End Users at least thirty (30) days in advance.

# 5. App Terms.

You may, at your sole discretion, determine the App Terms for each of your Apps, subject to this Section 5. Your App Terms must: (a) comply with the Card Association Rules and Applicable Laws of the jurisdiction(s) in which your App is to be published in the Store; and (b) not materially conflict with this Agreement. Your App Terms must not state or suggest in any way that GoDaddy Poynt or any of its affiliates is (i) a party to the App Terms; (ii) the licensor or provider of your App; or (iii) liable to an End User in any way with respect to the End User’s use of the App. Prior to amending or replacing your App Terms, you must submit the proposed amended or replacement App Terms to GoDaddy Poynt for approval before publishing such App Terms, making them available to End Users or otherwise making them available via the Store.

# 6. Use of the Store

6.1 Permitted Use. You will use the Store only for purposes that are permitted by (a) this Agreement and (b) the Card Association Rules and any Applicable Laws or generally accepted practices in the relevant jurisdictions (including any laws regarding the export of data or software to and from the United States or other relevant countries).

6.2 End User Data. You will protect End Users’ privacy and further rights provided by Applicable Laws (including, but not limited to, their officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives and customers). If End Users provide you with, or your App accesses or uses, End User names, passwords, or other login information or personal information of their officers, directors, employees, agents or representative, you must make the End Users aware that the information will be available to your App, and you must provide legally adequate privacy notice and protection for those End Users or their officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives and customers. Further, your App may only use that information for the limited purposes for which the End User has given you permission to do so or according to the requirements of Applicable Laws. If your App stores personal or sensitive information provided by End Users, it must do so securely and only for as long as it is needed. If the End User has opted into a separate agreement with you that allows you or your App to store or use personal or sensitive information directly related to your App (not including other content or applications), then the terms of that separate agreement will govern your use of such information. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, you shall at all times comply with Applicable Laws relating to privacy and/or data protection, existing as of the time you accept this Agreement and thereafter, during the term of this Agreement. If the End User provides your App with End User Account information, your App may only use that information to access the End User’s Account of the End User when, and for the limited purposes for which, the respective End User has given you permission to do so. You agree to remove any End User personal data upon End User’s request, except for any personal data which you may be required by Applicable Laws or court order to retain, but only to the extent required by Applicable Laws or relevant court order.

6.3 Prohibited Actions. You will not engage in any activity in the Store, including the distribution of an App, that interferes with, disrupts, damages, or accesses in an unauthorized manner the devices, servers, networks, or other properties or services of any third party including, but not limited to, End Users, GoDaddy Poynt, Payment Processors or financial institutions. You will not use End Users’ information (including, but not limited to, their officers’, directors’, employees’, agents’ or representatives’ and customers’ personal information) obtained from the Store or otherwise from GoDaddy Poynt to sell or distribute an App or services outside the Store.

6.4 Alternative Stores; No Direct Sales to End Users.

6.4.1 You may not use the Store to distribute or make available any App that has the purpose of facilitating the distribution, outside of the Store, of software applications for use on Devices or for purposes of facilitating the distribution of software not for use on Devices.

6.4.2 You will not make available your applications to GoDaddy Poynt merchants for use on Devices except through the Store. If any GoDaddy Poynt merchant contacts you directly for the purpose of purchasing or using your applications, you will use the API provided by GoDaddy Poynt to verify whether the merchant is a GoDaddy Poynt merchant. If, based on the information provided through the GoDaddy Poynt API, the merchant is a GoDaddy Poynt merchant, you will direct such merchant to purchase your applications through the Store. The GoDaddy Poynt API, and all information provided through the API, will be deemed GoDaddy Poynt Confidential Information, and you will use the API, and the information provided through the API, solely to verify whether the merchant is a GoDaddy Poynt merchant.

6.5 Marketing Your App. You will be responsible for uploading your App to the Store, providing required App information and providing support to End Users, and accurately disclosing the security permissions necessary for the App to function on Devices. If you do not comply with the terms of this Agreement, GoDaddy Poynt has the right to decline to publish your App in the Store.

  3. provide details for your Payment Account if you will be charging App Fees for your App.

6.6.2 GoDaddy Poynt reserves the right to display the published App in the Store in a manner as determined by GoDaddy Poynt at its sole discretion and to change the manner that the published App is displayed in the Store from time to time. Any validations or approvals may be withheld by GoDaddy Poynt in its sole discretion.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will GoDaddy Poynt maintain on any portion of the Store (including, without limitation, the part of the Store where previously purchased or downloaded an App is stored on behalf of End Users) any App that you have removed from the Store and for which you provided written notice to GoDaddy Poynt that such removal was due to (i) an allegation of infringement, or effective infringement, of any copyright, trademark, trade secret, trade dress, patent or other intellectual property right of any person, (ii) an allegation of defamation or effective defamation, (iii) an allegation of violation, or effective violation, of any third party’s right of publicity or privacy, or (iv) an allegation or determination that such App does not comply with Applicable Laws.

9.1.2 If you remove an App from the Store pursuant to clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) of Section 9.1.1, and an End User purchased such App within a year before the date of takedown, at GoDaddyPoynt’s request, you must refund to the affected End User all amounts paid by such End User for such affected App, less the portion of the Fees, which shall always be retained by GoDaddy Poynt to cover operational costs, less any Withholding Taxes.

GoDaddy Poynt reserves the right to suspend and/or bar you from the Store at its sole discretion. If your App contains elements that could cause serious harm to Devices or data, GoDaddy Poynt may at its discretion disable the App. GoDaddy Poynt may suspend or terminate distribution of your App if you materially breach the terms of any non-disclosure agreement or other agreement that you may have executed with GoDaddy Poynt relating to the Store or the Developer Portal.
