4. Use of the Marketplace by You

4.1 You agree to use the Marketplace only for purposes that are permitted by any applicable law, regulation or generally accepted practices or guidelines in the relevant jurisdictions.

Further, your Product may only use that information for the limited purposes for which the user has given you permission to do so. If your Product stores personal or sensitive information provided by users, it must do so securely and only for as long as it is needed. But if the user has opted into a separate agreement with you that allows you or your Product to store or use personal or sensitive information directly related to your Product (not including other products or applications) then the terms of that separate agreement will govern your use of such information.

4.7 You may remove Add-ons from future distribution via the Marketplace at any time, but it doesn’t affect already sold Add-ons in any way.

ImpressPages reserves the right to suspend and/or bar any Author from the Marketplace at its sole discretion.
