Communication Guidelines
If you have a question or concern about your services, you may send an e-mail to lucy@bristolhypopressives.com and we will do our best to reply to your question or concern promptly.
Purchases and Online Commerce
If paying by debit card or credit card, you give us permission to automatically charge your credit or debit card as payment for your service without any additional authorization, for which you will receive an electronic receipt. Should you be provided with a PayPal (or other third party) invoice instead, you are required to manually pay it by the date due on the invoice, or your service will be put on hold until payment is made.
You agree that you are financially willing and able to invest in this service by choice, and that by so doing, you are not incurring any economic hardship in any way.
If payment is not received by the due date, access to your service will be revoked and will remain revoked until payment is received.
If you fail to make payment in a timely manner per these Terms and Conditions, or voluntarily decide to withdraw from our services at any time or for any reason whatsoever, you still will remain fully responsible for the full cost of the services and all remaining payments.
All information obtained during your purchase or transaction for our services and all of the information that you give as part of the transaction, such as your name, address, method of payment, credit card number, and billing information, may be collected by both us and our payment processing company. Per our Privacy Policy, please review the privacy policy of our payment processor.
You agree to only purchase goods or services for yourself or for another person for whom you are legally permitted to do so or for whom you have obtained the express consent to provide their name, address, method of payment, credit card number, and billing information.
You agree to be financially responsible for all purchases made by you or someone acting on your behalf. You agree to use our services for legitimate, non-commercial purposes only and not for speculative, false, fraudulent, or illegal purposes.
We do not provide refunds for the programme. Since we have a clear and explicit Refund Policy in these Terms and Conditions that you have agreed to prior to completing the purchase of our services, we do not tolerate or accept any type of chargeback threat or actual chargeback from your credit card company, and your agreement with us will automatically terminate upon such attempt to seek a chargeback from your credit card company. You will remain responsible for payment in full for the services which you have purchased.
In the event that a chargeback is placed on a purchase or we receive a chargeback threat during or after your purchase, we reserve the right to report the incident to all three credit reporting agencies or to any other entity for inclusion in any chargeback database or for listing as a delinquent account which could have a negative impact on your credit report score. The information reported will include your name, email address, order date, order amount, and billing address. Chargeback abusers wishing to be removed from the database shall make the payment for the amount of the chargeback.
We also reserve our right to seek payment from you for any delinquent payment that is not provided by or upon the date due by enlisting the help of a collections agency, and we may exercise our right to report your delinquent payment to all three credit reporting agencies, either directly or through the help of a collections agency.
If you make a purchase from one of our affiliates, or any other individual or company through a link provided on or through our services (“Merchant”), all information obtained during your purchase or transaction and all of the information that you give as part of the transaction, such as your credit card number and contact information, may be collected by the Merchant and their payment processing company as well. Your participation, correspondence, or business dealings with any affiliate, individual, or company on or through our services, and all purchase terms, conditions, representations, or warranties associated with payment, refunds, and/or delivery related to your purchase, are solely between you and the Merchant. You agree that we shall not be responsible or liable for any loss, damage, refunds, or other matters of any sort that incurred as the result of such dealings with a Merchant.
Payment processing companies and Merchants may have privacy and data collection practices that are different from ours. We have no responsibility or liability for these independent policies of the payment processing companies and Merchants. In addition, when you make certain purchases through our services, you may be subject to the additional terms and conditions of a payment processing company, Merchant, or us that specifically apply to your purchase. For more information regarding a Merchant and its terms and conditions that may apply, visit that Merchant's website and click on its information links or contact the Merchant directly.
You release us, our affiliates, our payment processing company, and Merchants from any damages that you incur, and agree not to assert any claims against us or them, arising from your purchase through or use of our website or its content.
