The following activities will not be tolerated on this forum:
Chronic Pain Simplified reserves the right at its sole discretion to do any or all of the following:
One-time and recurring charges. A valid credit card number, expiration date and card security code is required for all purchases. If we are unable to charge the full cost of your purchase to the credit card you provide, we may cancel your order or request an alternate form of payment. Chronic Pain Simplified’s designated credit card processor/payment gateway will collect your credit card information and related personal information for its use in processing your payment for the products or subscriptions ordered by you. Any complaints or grievances regarding the processing of your payment should be addressed to Chronic Pain Simplified at the contact information given below. You understand that the prices for products and subscriptions may be changed from time to time, but that the website will reflect current prices. You are solely responsible for all charges and applicable fees (including delivery charges, taxes and any fees assessed by your bank) associated with your order.
Order limitations. We reserve the right to reject any order you place with us, or to limit quantities on any order, without giving any reason. If we reject your order, we will generally attempt to notify you using the email address you gave us when you placed the order.
Account Termination. Chronic Pain Simplified may, in its sole discretion, terminate your account or your use of the Site at any time. You are personally liable for any orders that you place or charges that you incur prior to termination.
Automatic Renewal and Subscription-Based Products. Chronic Pain Simplified offers the information available on the Site on a subscription basis. You may subscribe for a single 24 hour period, on a monthly basis or for a period of one year. If you choose either a monthly or yearly subscription at the time of your purchase you agree such subscription will automatically renew at the frequency disclosed to you at the time of your initial purchase (i.e., monthly or annual basis).
By choosing monthly or yearly subscription you acknowledge and agree your subscription will automatically renew, and unless you cancel, you authorize us to charge your payment card for the subscription you purchased, plus applicable shipping and handling, and taxes. The charges will typically occur on or around the same day of the month as your initial purchase, although some charges may be delayed for business or legal reasons. Certain subscription services such as Chronic Pain Simplified and digital products are not physical products, and thus, are not shippable. Your automatic subscription will continue until you or Chronic Pain Simplified cancels your order. If there are any changes to your subscription terms, such as pricing, frequency, date of charge or any other items, we will take commercially reasonable efforts to inform you in writing of such change. You may modify or cancel your subscription at any time.
Cancellation Policy. Chronic Pain Simplified subscriptions are not transferable and may only be used by the individual who signed up for the account. If you cancel your subscription, you will no longer have access to any Chronic Pain Simplified content through the Chronic Pain Simplified website. Cancellations take effect immediately, which means your account will be shut down at the moment of cancellation. In order not to lose access to the Site for the term for which you’ve already paid, please check your renewal date and cancel as close to the end of your date as possible.
Return Policy. Please note that all digital products are non-refundable. The graphics are downloadable digital images and will be available on your account after purchase, whether you have an active subscription or not. You may cancel your subscription at any time within your billing cycle to avoid further credit card charges but you will not be refunded for charges already processed.
