How buying items works

This section will help you understand what you are buying when you purchase an item and how that transaction takes place on Soft BD Team.

11. What you're buying:

  1. License: When you buy an item, you acquire the right to use that item; you're not actually acquiring the item itself. What you get includes a license directly from us (Soft BD Team) to use that item. Items are subject to specific terms of use, and these terms are the ‘license’ that we set on Soft BD Team. This license also applies to you if you download an item that someone else has bought for you (because anyone downloading an item needs to be an Soft BD Team member). Different license types are available for you to choose when you have selected an item. You’ll need to think about the way you want to use the item so that you can pick the right license to allow that use. It’s your responsibility to choose the correct license.
  2. Item support: We can choose whether or not to support certain items. If we chooses to support an item, this will be identified on the item page.
    To learn more about item support, like what items are covered, what authors provide, the support period and support extension options, see the item support policy.

12. The total price for an item on Soft BD Team is made up of:

  1. Item price: The item price is made up of a license fee (for the license you choose for the item).
  2. Buyer fee: We don't charge buyer fee.
  3. Taxes: Some transactions on Soft BD Team may be subject to tax that may be added to the price.
The list price is made up of the item price, and is the price you see on an item page.

Transacting as a buyer:

13. If you have an Soft BD Team account, you can make payments by using the ‘Purchase’ function or by using any existing Soft BD Team Credits in your Soft BD Team account.

14. Soft BD Team Credits: Existing Soft BD Team Credits can only be used to pay for Soft BD Team transactions. We do not refund any monies originally placed into your Soft BD Team account to buy Soft BD Team Credits (but you may have rights under an applicable consumer law, which we don’t exclude).

15. If you choose to buy using any existing Soft BD Team Credits, the total price will be deducted from your Soft BD Team Credits. If you haven’t used your Soft BD Team Credits within 6 months they may expire from the date of purchase. See section 21 for details about the expiry of Soft BD Team Credits.

16. When using Purchase you will be redirected to a payment method provider.

17. Currency conversion costs: You are responsible for all costs of currency conversion relating to a transaction on Soft BD Team. Your financial institution does the currency conversion and may charge you additional fees (we don’t control either the conversion rates or your financial institution’s fees).

This means that you may incur additional costs when purchasing from Soft BD Team, which we have no control over.

18. Terms of buying: When you buy an Soft BD Team item you’re doing so on the following terms:

  1. you warrant to us that you have carefully considered the suitability of your chosen license, and that you have chosen appropriately;
  2. you cannot cancel a completed purchase of an item;
  3. we do not promise that any particular item will continue to be available on Soft BD Team so you should download and save the item as soon as you buy it;
  4. once you buy or download an item and the item has been paid for, you acquire a non-exclusive license to use the item under the terms set out in the license (non-exclusive means others might also license the same item);
  5. we retains ownership of the item;
  6. your relevant details may be provided to the Soft BD Team of the item in order to facilitate the transaction, for example for invoicing and item support services; and
  7. we have the right to enforce against you the terms of the license that you have acquired from an author.

19. Warranties we make:

  1. We warrant that the Soft BD Team site will be suitable for the purposes described on the site, and that we will provide our platform services with reasonable skill and care.
  2. We otherwise do not make any express or implied warranties about the Soft BD Team site.

20. Warranties Soft BD Team make: Soft BD Team of an item you buy warrants to you that:

  1. the item is of acceptable quality and fit for the purpose for which it is 'sold';
  2. the item matches the description given by Soft BD Team on the item preview page, as well as any item preview;
  3. Soft BD Team will honour any express warranties given to you that are not contained in these terms;
  4. Soft BD Team have the rights necessary to license that item on the terms of applicable license;
  5. your use of that item in accordance with the terms of the applicable license does not infringe the intellectual property rights of someone else;
  6. the item and its description are not false, inaccurate, misleading, fraudulent, unlawful or defamatory;
  7. the item and its description do not violate any applicable law or regulation (including those governing export control, consumer protection, unfair competition, criminal law, pornography, anti-discrimination, trade practices or fair trading);
  8. the item does not contain viruses or other computer codes, files or programs which are designed to limit or destroy the functionality of other computer software or hardware;
  9. if the item is marked as 'supported', they will provide you with the services as outlined in the item support policy;
  10. Soft BD Team will process your data in accordance with applicable privacy law and data protection regulations.
This is what Soft BD Team are promising you when you buy an item.

21. Soft BD Team Credits expire: Soft BD Team Credits expire if not used within 6 months from the date of purchase, and will be forfeited on the 6 month anniversary of the purchase date. We generally try to tell you beforehand when Soft BD Team Credits are going to expire and be forfeited, but this is not always possible and don’t promise to warn you. Check your member’s account regularly for details of expiry dates. If you have different rights under an applicable consumer law, we don’t exclude them.

If you haven’t used your Soft BD Team Credits within 6 months they may expire.

22. Items with an incorrect price or incorrect information: Despite our reasonable efforts, items may occasionally be listed at an incorrect price or with incorrect information. If this happens, we may cancel or reverse a transaction, even after it is completed and a payment has been processed. If we do this, we’ll promptly arrange for any payment to be credited or refunded and you must not use the item unless you re-purchase it at the correct price.

Refunds

23. Given the nature of digital content, a refund or credit on a purchase is not granted unless one of the warranties given by Soft BD Team in 20 has been breached, or a refund is required under the Soft BD Team Refund Rules or other relevant consumer protection laws. If you would like to request a refund see this Refund Policy.

24. We will assess refund or credit requests (if you have an Soft BD Team account) on their merits, considering the digital nature of Soft BD Team items and the type of item preview that was available before purchase. There is generally no obligation to provide a refund or credit in situations like the following:

  1. you have changed your mind about an item;
  2. you bought an item by mistake;
  3. you do not have sufficient expertise to use the item;
  4. you ask for goodwill; or
  5. you can no longer access the item because it has been removed (we advise you to download items as soon as you buy them to avoid this situation).

25. If we decide to issue a refund or credit (if you have an Soft BD Team account), this will generally be done using the same manner used to make the purchase. So if the item was purchased using Soft BD Team Credits, you will be given credit in Soft BD Team Credits; if the item was purchased using a particular payment method you will be refunded using the same payment method in reverse. Any payment made to you (not Soft BD Team Credits) will be made in US Dollars, under the rules of the payment method (see section 17 - Currency conversion costs about currency conversion back to your local currency).

It is important that you understand how refunds work on Soft BD Team.

26. Disputes lodged with payment agents: If, as a buyer via your Soft BD Team account, you lodge a dispute with a payment agent, this will result in a freezing of your Soft BD Team account until the dispute raised with the payment agent has been cancelled. This makes it very complex to resolve any related issues, and means we cannot make payments or issue refunds out of your Soft BD Team account, so we encourage buyers to contact us directly first to see if we can help resolve any concerns.

27. Fine print: We are not a bank or licensed deposit taker in Australia or elsewhere, your credits are not deposits under Australian law about banks, and that means you don’t get the benefit of any deposit insurance or guarantee under those laws. We don’t act as a fiduciary or as a trustee for you, and we’re not a licensed financial service provider.

Intellectual Property

28. What we own: We own all the Soft BD Team content that we have put on Soft BD Team.  This includes the design, compilation, and look and feel of the Soft BD Team site, and copyright, trademarks, designs and other intellectual property on Soft BD Team. We own all the trademarks, logos, service marks and trade names on Soft BD Team. You will not copy, distribute, modify or make derivative works of any of our Soft BD Team Content or use any of our intellectual property in any way not expressly stated in these terms.

29. Copyright, trademark and intellectual property claims: We respect the intellectual property rights of others.

33. Community participation: We take great pride in our global and thriving community—it’s part of what makes the Soft BD Team great. We focus on transparency and mutual respect and invite you to participate, give feedback and have your say.

Legal Housekeeping

34. Eligibility, suspension or termination: Membership is not an automatic right, it is a benefit for community members who follow our terms and policies and treat other community members well. We hope that you will be with us for a long time. But we may, using reasonable discretion, decide whether or not your use of Soft BD Team complies with these terms and our policies. We can suspend or terminate your Soft BD Team account at any time for any reason (acting reasonably of course), including if you:

  1. breach these terms or any terms applicable to any of your other Soft BD Team accounts;
  2. breach any of our policies
  3. act in a way that does not align with the values of our community; or
  4. act in a way that could cause us or members harm.

 

If we do decide to permanently terminate your Soft BD Team account you must not apply for a new account as unfortunately you will no longer be welcome in our community.
