3. Basis of Contract

If you use Our Website in any way on behalf of another person you warrant that you have full authority to do so and you accept personal responsibility for every act or omission by you.

When you buy a Licensed Product, you are in fact buying a licence to use that Licensed Product. The terms of use vary from one Licensed Product to another and are contained in our “Product Licence Terms”. That Licence is supplemental to this agreement and to be read with this agreement to provide the full agreement between us.

In entering into this contract you have not relied on any representation or information from any source except Our Website.

There is no contract between us for any free service, so you do not become a client by using any free service and we are not liable to you in any way resulting from your use of any free service.

The price of any Licensed Product or Service may be changed by us at any time. We will never change a price so as to affect the price charged to you at the time when you buy that Licensed Product or Service.

You agree that you are bound by these terms (or the latest version of them) for all future contracts with us, whether ordered through Our Website or in some other way.

You now agree that you commit a breach of this contract if you seek repayment of money paid to us by asking your credit card provider to credit back a payment made to us, without attempting to seek repayment from us first. In that event, you agree that you will owe us first the sum charged to us by our payment service provider and secondly a sum based on time spent at $ [100] per hour in dealing with your breach. You also agree that this provision is reasonable.

The Contract between us comes into existence at the earlier of:

• when we write to you to confirm that your order has been shipped; or
• when you download the Licensed Product you have bought.

We may change this agreement and / or the way we provide a Product, at any time. If we do:

• the change will take effect when we Post it on Our Website. You are advised to check this page from time to time.
• if you make any payment for Licensed Products or Services in the future, you will do so under the terms posted on Our Website at that time.

4. The price

The prices payable for the Licensed Product and Services are clearly set out on Our Website.

The price charged for any Licensed Product or Service may differ from one country to another. You may not be entitled to the lowest price unless you reside in the qualifying country.

Prices will show any goods and services tax or other sales tax charged.

Charges for Services are fixed whenever it is reasonably possible for us to ascertain the price.

Our Services require payment in advance in every case.

5. Refunds

All our sales, unless specific product exclusions are stated, are covered by a 15-day quality guarantee. If a shorter period is stated, it will be made clear on the sales page, and product description page. This guarantee period begins at the later of: the time and day of your payment, or the time and day when access is first made available to you and as notified in the promotional literature for the product or service you purchased. 

Refunds will be made subject to the retention of payment gateway fees which are non-refundable. The base currency for our store is USD and the refund will be processed in USD and converted to your currency through the payment gateway at their then exchange rates. 

If you purchased a physical product, because shipping preparation begins the moment your order is placed, there is no refund possible unless your order is damaged in transit. Damaged orders can be returned subject to issuance of a Returned Merchandise Authority (RMA) number being issued by our customer support team. You can contact them through our website or at support@donnafarhi.co.nz. Returned goods must be received in re-saleable condition, are shipped at your expense and will incur a re-stocking fee of 10% of the book value. Original shipping fees are not refundable.

6. Security of your [credit card]

We take care to make Our Website safe for you to use.

Card payments are not processed through pages controlled by us. We use one or more online payment service providers who will encrypt your card or bank account details in a secure environment.

If you have asked us to remember your credit card details in readiness for your next purchase or subscription, we will securely store your payment details on our systems. These details will be fully encrypted and only used to process your automatic monthly payments or other transactions which you have initiated.

You understand that you are personally responsible for your breach of someone else’s intellectual property rights, defamation, or any law, which may occur as a result of any Content having been Posted by you.

You accept all risk and responsibility for determining whether any Content is in the public domain and not confidential.

Please notify us of any security breach or unauthorised use of your account.

We do not solicit ideas or text for improvement of our Service, but if you do send to us material of any sort, you are deemed to have granted us a licence to use it in the terms set out at sub paragraph five above.
