Billing Procedures
- Services provided may incur subscription fees ("Subscription Fees"), detailed during registration and subject to change. Subscription Fees typically include a one-time charge for the initial period, followed by recurring charges for later periods as agreed upon during registration. By subscribing, you acknowledge and accept responsibility for all charges incurred until the subscription is cancelled. Recurring charges are processed monthly without additional authorization from you. Upon your membership termination, all recurring charges will cease. To cancel your subscription, use the customer service details on your credit card statement.
- Certain services might necessitate one-time payments or advance payments for specific services.
- Transactions may be processed through credit card processors or banks outside the United States. You may incur foreign transaction fees or similar charges from your bank or credit card issuer. For ease of future transactions, your credit card number may be stored by us or our agents (e.g., credit card processors, payment gateways) in a secure manner. You agree to this storage and authorize us to charge your card for future transactions.
- If your payment method is declined, the Company may reattempt the transaction within seven days of the initial attempt. The next scheduled rebill will occur on the original date. The Company may modify the price of rebills or the initial transaction to a lower amount, maintaining the membership at the original rebill price effective from the next rebill unless cancelled 48 hours prior. For unsuccessful recurring payments, an administrative fee up to $2.00 may be charged to maintain your subscription. For any inquiries about rebill prices or dates, contact the Site's customer service.
Taxes
Depending on your location, Value-Added Tax (VAT), Sales Tax, or other taxes may be applied to your purchase, in line with local regulations. Tax rates are subject to variation.
Cancellation and Refund Policy
You can cancel your membership at any time, with termination effective immediately upon notice. Fees are non-refundable once the Site is accessed. Lack of access to the Website, not due to the Company’s fault, is not a valid reason for a refund.
Should a refund be issued, it will be processed by the Company to the original payment method used. No cash or check refunds are provided. All refunds are processed within ten days of communication between the User and the Company's customer service.
Handling of Chargebacks
We conduct a thorough investigation into all chargebacks, which may affect future purchasing abilities on the Site.

Arbitration Agreement
Mandatory Arbitration - In case of a dispute under this Agreement, both parties will first try to resolve it through good faith negotiations. If unsuccessful, either party may request binding arbitration as per the applicable Arbitration Ordinance. Arbitral Claims include various legal claims, excluding worker’s compensation, unemployment insurance, intellectual property, and actions seeking equitable relief. Arbitration will occur in the Republic of Cyprus, conducted by an arbitrator experienced in Internet and e-commerce disputes, who shall remain neutral.
The Arbitrator won’t have the authority to award punitive damages, certify class actions, add parties, or disregard this Agreement’s terms. The arbitration will be governed by Cyprus law, with the arbitrator providing a detailed written decision within 30 days of the arbitration conclusion. BOTH PARTIES FORGO TRIAL BY JURY FOR ARBITRAL CLAIMS.
Non-waiver of Arbitration Rights - Rights to arbitration can only be waived in a written, explicit agreement. No action, including litigation initiation, should be deemed a waiver or renunciation of arbitration rights.
Limitation of Legal Actions - Claims related to this Agreement, excluding intellectual property issues, demands for outstanding payments, and indemnification claims, must be filed within one year of the cause of action’s occurrence.
Prohibition of Class Actions
IN ANY DISPUTE, NEITHER PARTY NOR ANY THIRD PARTY MAY PURSUE CLASS OR CONSOLIDATED CLAIMS OR ARBITRATE ON BEHALF OF OTHERS. BY AGREEING, YOU WAIVE THE RIGHT TO ENGAGE IN CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS REGARDING THESE CLAIMS.
Exemption for Uncontrollable Events
Neither party will be liable for delays or failures in performance caused by unavoidable events like natural disasters, terrorism, strikes, embargoes, fires, war, or other uncontrollable circumstances.
General Clauses and Severability
The entirety of the agreement between You and the Company regarding the Site is comprised of these Terms and Conditions, the Privacy Policy, and any other legal notices issued by the Company on the Site. Should any part of these Terms and Conditions be declared void by a competent court, such invalidity won't impact the validity of the remaining clauses, which will continue to be enforceable. No single waiver of any part of these Terms and Conditions implies a waiver of any other part, nor does the Site's non-enforcement of any right or clause imply a waiver of such right or clause.
If a court or arbitrator finds any provision of this Agreement, or part thereof, unenforceable, it will be enforced to the fullest extent permissible, and the rest of the Agreement will remain effective.
No waiver or action by the Company is to be considered a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or other provision of this Agreement. If any term, clause, or provision is deemed invalid or unenforceable by a competent court, its invalidity does not affect other terms, clauses, or provisions, and the invalid term is to be considered severed from this Agreement.
