Theme license & Transfer
Last updated
Last updated
When you purchase Sleek theme from the Shopify Theme Store, that theme is licensed exclusively to the store where the purchase was made.
Unlicensed themes don't qualify for support or theme updates.
For more detailed information on licensing, refer to Shopify’s Terms of Service.
If you're notified that you have an unlicensed theme or you've received a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) notice, then you must take one of the following specific actions:
Purchase: Buy the theme for the store where you plan to use it. For all that's worth it, Sleek is your best choice.
Delete: If you choose not to purchase the theme, simply remove it from your theme library.
Transfer: In cases where you previously purchased a theme for an old store but no longer use it there, you might be able to transfer it to your new store.
We reserve the right to report your store to the Shopify legal team and issue a DMCA legal report to shut down your store if you are using an unlicensed theme.
Importing a theme to another store is only possible if the theme was originally purchased from the Shopify Theme Store for that specific store.
Currently, Shopify doesn't offer a way to transfer a theme license between stores without permanently closing the original store.
For specific instructions and requirements on transferring a license, please reach out to Shopify support.
