===Introduction===


Mozilla Corporation (“Mozilla”, “us” or “we”) is committed to promoting choice and innovation on the web.  That is why Mozilla created the “Mozilla Marketplace” &endash; a publicly available website allowing developers to distribute their (i) client applications (“Apps”) or (ii) extensions or themes that extend the functionality of the Firefox browser (“Add-ons”) (together, “Marketplace Content”) to users for use on their devices.

Management of Mozilla Marketplace
 
===Management of Mozilla Marketplace===


You are the merchant of record for your Marketplace Content. Because we need to be able to manage the Mozilla Marketplace (including preventing abuse), the inclusion and display of any Marketplace Content in the Mozilla Marketplace is at Mozilla’s sole discretion. While Mozilla is not obligated to review or test any Marketplace Content or its content, Mozilla or its community may at any time review or test any of your Marketplace Content for compliance with these Terms and any other applicable terms, obligations, laws, or regulations.

Pricing and Transaction Fees
 
===Pricing and Transaction Fees===


You are the merchant of record for the sales of your Marketplace Content. As such, you may choose to distribute your Marketplace Content for free or for a fee and you are solely responsible for setting any price associated with the download of your App. If you want to charge a fee, you must have a valid payment account with a payment processor authorized by Mozilla.  A “payment account” means an account issued by an authorized payment processor to you pursuant to a separate agreement between you and that payment processor, which authorizes the payment processor to collect and remit payments on the your behalf for Marketplace Content sold via the Mozilla Marketplace.

We offer certain integrated payment processors for App purchases. If you charge a fee for your App and you use one of the integrated payment processors, then we will charge you a fee for each transaction.  Our fees will be deducted by the payment processor out of the gross amounts collected for your App(s) or be separately payable by you to us. You can find our current fee schedule at https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Apps/Marketplace_Payments. We reserve the right to modify the fees from time to time in our sole discretion.

Taxes
 
===Taxes===


Since you, not Mozilla, are selling your Marketplace Content as the merchant of record, you are solely responsible for determining whether charging a fee to a user for downloading an App is taxable and the applicable tax rate for the payment processor to collect for each taxing jurisdiction where the App is made available for download for a fee.  You are solely responsible for remitting taxes to the appropriate taxing authority based on the transaction. For clarity, Mozilla does not have any tax obligations to you with respect to such Marketplace Content, including without limitation obligations to track and process payments, authenticate paid or previously paid downloads, maintain payment records, or pay, report, or charge sales, use or excise taxes. Please see Mozilla’s Tax FAQ for more information and make sure to consult your attorney or tax board to determine whether you need to collect and remit taxes.
