Welcome to Showit. The following terms and conditions are applied to all Showit accounts.

Description of Service

Age Requirements

Technical Support

Objectionable Material

Pornography, nudity of any kind, adult-related content, promotion of adult services, and otherwise illegal content are not permitted on Showit. Showit reserves the right to remove content considered to fall under these categories.

Hosting

Showit is built on the scaling power of Amazon Web services and we will do our best to make sure websites hosted with us will be live. If you experience excessive downtime you are not under contract and can cancel your account and request a refund for the last month's payment. Data stored with Showit is intended for distribution on the web and data stored as a backup will be removed. Showit provides up to 20 gigabytes of storage for media and up to 10 thousand visitors on a basic blog and 25 thousand visitors to an advanced blog per month. Media & file storage is limited to content meant for the web. Storage for backups and archived content is not permitted, and such content is subject to automatic removal from our servers. Blogs running themes designed in Showit must be hosted on servers managed by Showit.

Backups

Pages and content created in the Showit website builder is backed up regularly every 10 minutes as changes are made. Backups are stored for 7 days. Backup files can be requested to be restored by contacting Showit Support.

Showit provides 30 day rolling backups of WordPress content and a backup file can be requested to download WordPress content. WordPress plugins that store backups on the server will be removed. Showit also maintains a list of approved plugins and reserves the right to remove plugins that consume excessive resources or are deemed to be duplicate functionality.

Payment Terms

Showit reserves the right to charge additional fees to users who use more resources in storage or bandwidth than outlined in the hosting terms above.

Domain Names

Showit, Inc. reserves the right to revoke a Vanity URL or domain name for any reason, including but not limited to inappropriate URL names that do not represent who you are or the content of your website, a name that is the currently published business name and/or intellectual property rights of a current Showit subscriber, any URL name that includes profanity or terms that could be interpreted to be derogatory in nature to a specific person or people group. Showit, Inc. does not allow the practice of masking domain names for +Sites (Plus Sites) and reserves the right to suspend or terminate any subscription masking a Vanity URL.

Trademark

“Showit” is a registered trademark of Showit, Inc. It is a trademark infringement to use the name “Showit” or the Showit logos in a way that would suggest partnership, sponsorship or endorsement by Showit, Inc. In addition, it is not permissible to use the Showit name, domain names, or logos in a way that imitates or might be confused with Showit, Inc.

Referral Program

Customers with active yearly or monthly Showit subscriptions can opt into the Showit referral program which allows existing subscribers (referrers) to share a referral code with others. New customers subscribing using a referral code are awarded a free month. Existing customers are not eligible to redeem referral codes. Payment methods are collected at the time of subscription, but the payment is delayed by 31 days. After the new customer's first payment is posted, the referrer is awarded a credit to their subscription account worth as much as their own monthly subscription cost. Credit is automatically redeemed at the next payment cycle. There is no limit to the amount of credit a customer can collect. Credits are only applied to subscription fees, not redeemable as cash or toward design purchases. Referral codes can be changed and personalized, but each customer is only allowed one. If a customer shares a referral code and then changes it at a later time, the old code will no longer work or credit that customer's account. Showit reserves the right to discontinue referral codes that it deems inappropriate. Showit reserves the right to discontinue this program for customers attempting to “game the system”.
