Prohibited actions
We value our theme partners and want to make the theme experience the best possible for everyone involved. Theme partners are expected to adhere to the Partner Program Agreement.
This page outlines some of the actions that could lead to your theme being removed from the Shoplazza Theme Store, or to you being removed from the Shoplazza Partner program. While this page presents a series of important guidelines, it's not intended to be comprehensive.
If you violate any of the terms in the Partner Program Agreement, then the Shoplazza Theme Store team will use their discretion to determine the appropriate disciplinary action, which can include the following:
-
an email requiring your prompt attention with a set time frame to take action
-
immediate removal of your theme from the Shoplazza Theme Store
-
removal from the Shoplazza Partners program
The terms can change at any time without notice. Any other behavior that the Shoplazza Theme Store team deems unacceptable, objectionable, or harmful can also result in the theme being removed from the Shoplazza Theme Store.
