If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use our service.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and JonesLabs LLC, operating as SPConnector, regarding your use of our service.

Third-Party Service Disclaimer
Important: SPConnector is an independent third-party integration service.
- Not affiliated with Shippo: SPConnector is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or officially connected to Shippo Inc. or its services.

Platform Limitations and Known Issues
Etsy Order Cancellation Status Detection
Current Limitation: Shippo's platform is unable to detect when Etsy orders transition to a cancelled state. This is a limitation of Shippo's API integration with Etsy, not a limitation of SPConnector.
Impact on Order Cancellation Documents Feature: Cancelled Etsy orders will continue to appear with an incorrect status in Shippo and thus, within SPConnector. If you have the Order Cancellation Documents feature enabled (available on Growth plan and higher), these orders will not generate cancellation documents in SPConnector.
Required Workaround: If you sell on Etsy and use the Order Cancellation Documents feature, you must:
- Review your Etsy orders daily for cancellations
- Manually hide cancelled Etsy orders in Shippo to prevent automatic processing
- Inform your fulfillment team of the cancalled Etsy order.
Working Platforms: This limitation only affects Etsy. Order cancellation status detection works correctly for Shopify and other supported platforms.
Future Updates: We are actively monitoring Shippo's platform updates and API releases. When Shippo adds support for Etsy order cancellation status detection, SPConnector will automatically support it without requiring any changes from you.
