CREDIT CARDS 1. We use one card processors for the website. Squareup.com for membership processing and Squareup.com for merchandise sales.

The highest level of security and anti-fraud measures exist in their systems to ensure your transactions are safely made over the internet. 2. All credit card purchases will be billed as “E.Style Store”, “EfrenStyle.com/Shop”, or “Efren Style” which is what you will see on your card statements. [email protected] 3. No card details are stored on our server. All card information remains with our processors. Card numbers are not available to anyone but the card processors. Card numbers are at no point transmitted over the internet without industry standard (256 bit SSL) encryption being applied. This is the strongest form of encryption commonly used for transactions on the web. 4. The only details stored locally on our server are those concerning membership purchases. In this case the dates of transactions and username/password's are stored for the purposes of running and administrating the membership account. No other details are kept locally. These details are not accessable via any of the public interfaces of the site and are only available to authorized technical staff on a per IP/Computer basis. 5. NEVER send us credit card numbers via email. We cannot take orders this way and will reject any such order. Doing so is highly unsafe and may compromise your credit card. Please do not do it. 6. If you have any dispute about a transaction made with your card please contact us at the appropriate email address (for sales please see the store pages - for membership please visit the join page) and we will resolve it as quickly as possible. 7. We reserve the right to reject any transaction. 8. Rejected transactions will not be charged anything in any way. Nothing will appear on the rejected card or bank statement. 9. A successful credit card transaction will always be emailed an invoice. 10. To be successful an order MUST BE associated with a valid email address.

Fees for membership are paid in advance and are not refundable for part months. Cancellations merely stop the rebilling process. No refunds are applicable on part usage of membership. In other words you pay for the next period (1 month or 3 months) in advance and you cannot claim back on the remainder of the period you cancel in. 3. By logging into the site you are committing yourself to the term you have paid for. 4. Any refunds are purely at our own discretion. We reserve the right to deny or issue refunds based on individual circumstances. 5.

In general refunds for membership are not entertained except for: Mistaken Transactions (before the account is activated / used) Fraudulent Transactions Any mistaken or incorrect billing amounts. 7. You may cancel any time you wish. Note it is wise to cancel ahead of your next rebill to avoid being committed for another term. Your current paid up membership will continue until the rebill date. So if you decide you wish to cancel - do it immediately - do not wait until the last minute as you gain nothing from doing so and may accidentally be charged for the next period should you accidentally wait too long. 8. Password piracy is theft. We operate a password protection mechanism that detects access to the site by simultaneous multiple IP addresses. If you give away your username or password details or leave them insecure so that they are stolen your membership will be forfeit immediately with no refund.
