Our Services

We develop and make available to you apps which are designed to enhance your customer support team. Our support apps are built to provide additional features to your existing support tools. In some cases, our apps may permit you to receive, distribute, and otherwise use material (“Uploaded Content”) which is uploaded by third parties (“Content Uploaders”). For more information about Uploaded Content and Content Uploaders, please see the “ Uploaded Content” heading below. We can also custom develop apps for your store, provide webmaster services, and many other e-commerce services. The list of apps we offer is always changing – you can access a list of our current apps here.

The specifics of each aspect of the Services (including technical details, support and pricing information) are posted on our website, as we may amend them from time to time, as well as in any applicable statement of work we may issue to you, in respect of the Services. Where you engage us to custom development Services, the details of our engagement will be governed by any additional documents and agreements as part of that engagement.

We take reasonable efforts to explain each Service’s features to you on our website, but we can’t guarantee a Service will look or perform exactly like it appears on a demo page.
