Business Terms

BENEFITS

Products listed in the official SocialEngine store are more appealing to clients as they can see that the expert is officially listed and a part of the community. This helps to promote trust between the clients and experts.

SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE

Experts shall be solely responsible for providing good customer support and maintenance services to the end users of their store products. Experts will provide all direct communications and services to and from customers with respect to all support services. Expert will need to ensure that they provide a resolution for any support issue or problem as soon as it is commercially reasonable, but no later than five (5) business days from client contact.

NON-DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION SHARED BY SOCIALENGINE WITH EXPERTS:

Any news or information if / whenever shared by SocialEngine with its experts at any point of time that may or may not be shared publicly by SocialEngine, shall not be shared by experts with anyone. This information can be regarding any development or business plans or about any product launches that SocialEngine may share with experts at any time.

REVIEWS OF PRODUCTS

We have been informed that clients are being enticed to give positive reviews in exchange for support, bug fixes or customizations. This is not allowed. Reviews must be an accurate representation of a client’s experience with the unaltered product. False reviews water down the accuracy of the review system and are a detriment to consumer confidence. Should we receive any proof of such behavior, the product in question will be removed from the store. No refunds of any fees will be granted.

Development Terms

LISTING ACCEPTANCE REVIEW

Experts are solely responsible for testing the product well, making sure it works well from the perspective of technology, functionality, performance and user interface before submitting it to the SocialEngine store.

COMPATIBILITY WITH SOCIALENGINE SOFTWARE:

Experts are required to ensure full compatibility of their product with SocialEngine core software and official plugins before submitting it for review. Whenever any major or minor upgrades are released by SocialEngine of its core software, experts are required to test their products with that latest update and update the version of their product on the store within thirty (30) days of that major or minor SocialEngine core Software release. SocialEngine has the right to un-approve any product at anytime if it does not meet SocialEngine’s compatibility standards.

VERSIONING AND SUBMISSION OF UPGRADES:

Experts are required to analyze the difference between minor and major upgrades well. Products must be uniform in versioning. These should coincide with SocialEngine release versions (4.8, 4.9, etc).In order to assure uniformity in versions, we define a Major version as any numbered release without an alpha-numeric sub-designation. We define a minor release as a release having an alpha-numeric sub-designation. See the examples below.

Example: Major release – 4.9, 4.9.1, 4.9.2, 4.9.3. Minor release – 4.9.2m1, 4.9.2m2, 4.9.3m3

Though you can use any alphabetical character for your sub-designation, we suggest staying away from “a” or “b” as those tend to be used for alpha and beta releases in the software industry and “p” tends to be for patch releases.

All submissions must conform to the store listing guidelines. Please log in with your expert account to view the guidelines.
