Services Provided

Shiro provides the following services:

Shopify Theme Licensing

Premium Shopify theme templates with domain-locked licensing. Each license is bound to a single Shopify store domain and includes lifetime updates and support.

AI Image Processing Tools

Credit-based AI-powered image editing services including background removal, product placement/scene generation, and ghost mannequin effects for e-commerce product photography.

License Management Dashboard

Web-based dashboard for managing licenses, downloading themes, accessing image tools, viewing credit balance, and managing your account.

Image Library

Secure cloud storage for your processed images with download and management capabilities.

License Terms

Subject to your compliance with these Terms and payment of applicable fees, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to:

  • Download and install the Theme on one (1) Shopify store associated with your licensed domain
  • Customize the Theme's appearance, layout, and content for your store
  • Use the Theme for commercial purposes on your licensed Shopify store
  • Receive updates and bug fixes for the Theme during your subscription period

Domain Locking

Each license is permanently bound to the Shopify store domain specified at purchase. The Theme will validate its license on each page load. Invalid licenses will result in degraded functionality and visible watermarks.

License Key

You will receive a unique license key in format SHIRO-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX. This key is confidential and must not be shared. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your license key.

License Restrictions

You expressly agree that you will NOT:

  • Use the Theme on more than one Shopify store or domain
  • Transfer, sell, rent, lease, or sublicense your license to any third party
  • Redistribute, resell, or make the Theme available to others
  • Remove, alter, or obscure any copyright notices, branding, or license validation code
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Theme
  • Create derivative works or competing products based on the Theme
  • Circumvent or attempt to bypass license validation mechanisms
  • Share your license key or account credentials with others
  • Use the Theme for illegal purposes or in violation of applicable laws

Enforcement

We actively monitor license usage and reserve the right to suspend or terminate licenses that violate these restrictions. Violations may result in immediate termination without refund and potential legal action.

Payment & Billing

Pricing

All prices are displayed in USD and are subject to change. We reserve the right to modify pricing at any time, but changes will not affect existing subscriptions until renewal.

Payment Processing

Payments are processed securely through third-party payment processors. We do not store complete payment card details on our servers. By providing payment information, you authorize us to charge the applicable fees.

Subscription Billing

Subscriptions are billed on a recurring basis (monthly or annually) and will automatically renew unless canceled before the renewal date. You are responsible for all charges incurred under your account.

  • Monthly subscriptions renew on the same day each month
  • Annual subscriptions renew on the anniversary of your purchase date
  • Credits reset to your plan's allocation on each billing cycle
  • Unused credits do not roll over to the next billing period

Taxes

You are responsible for all applicable taxes, duties, and government fees. Prices do not include taxes unless explicitly stated. We may collect sales tax based on your billing location as required by law.

Failed Payments

If a payment fails, we will attempt to process it again. Continued payment failures may result in suspension or termination of your account and services.

Refund Policy

No Refunds for Digital Products

Due to the nature of digital products and instant delivery, all sales are final. We do not offer refunds, returns, or exchanges for theme licenses or credit purchases.

Policy Rationale

Our digital products are delivered instantly upon purchase and cannot be "returned" once accessed. This policy protects the integrity and value of our products and prevents abuse.

No Exceptions

Refunds will not be issued for:

  • Change of mind or buyer's remorse
  • Lack of technical knowledge or inability to use the product
  • Compatibility issues with third-party plugins or customizations
  • Failure to read product descriptions or documentation
  • Unused credits or subscription time
  • Account termination due to Terms violations

Pre-Purchase Review

We strongly encourage you to review all product information, screenshots, feature lists, documentation, and these Terms before making a purchase. By completing your purchase, you acknowledge that you have reviewed all relevant information and accept our no-refund policy.

Defective Products

If you experience technical issues with our Theme, please contact support. We will work to resolve legitimate technical problems but will not issue refunds. Our sole obligation is to correct material defects or provide reasonable support.

Image Processing Credits

Credit System

AI image processing tools consume credits based on the operation performed. Each subscription plan includes a monthly credit allocation that resets on your billing cycle.

Credit Costs

  • Background Removal: 25 credits per image
  • Product Placement/Scene Generation: 50 credits per image
  • Ghost Mannequin: 75 credits per image

Credit Expiration

Credits reset to your plan's allocation on each billing cycle. Unused credits do not roll over or accumulate. Credits have no cash value and cannot be refunded or transferred.

Insufficient Credits

If you attempt to use a tool without sufficient credits, the operation will fail. You may upgrade your plan or wait until your next billing cycle for credits to renew.
