PRODUCTS AND SUBSCRIPTIONS
SPArty Girl offers a variety of child-directed products for sale through its Website, including, but not limited to, products that include hands-on activities, collectibles, stickers, letters, activity books, experiment kits, comic books, and other materials ("Product" or "Products"). Customers may purchase Products either a la carte basis or on a subscription basis ("Subscription(s)"). Non-subscription, one-off Product purchases are one-time, non-recurring sales.
SPArty Girl delivers Subscriptions on a recurring basis through physical packages sent via the postal mail. Each Subscription includes a variety of Products and Product lines suitable for the age selected and covering certain subject matters. For more information regarding billing for Subscriptions, please see the "PAYMENTS" section, below.
PAYMENTS
When you purchase an SPArty Girl Subscription or Product(s) through the Website, we will bill the credit card or other payment method that you have provided (your "Payment Method"). Your Payment Method will be billed before the shipping date for your Subscription package or Product(s) in order for SPArty Girl to process the shipment.
Any Subscription that you purchase will automatically renew on a recurring basis, the cadence of which will be communicated to you when you purchase the Subscription. Subscriptions renew at the same cadence you specify when you initially purchase the Subscription, unless you request a change after such purchase. For example, a 12-month Subscription will automatically renew for an additional 12-month term, which will begin once the initial Subscription term ends. Subscriptions will renew at the Subscription rate that is applicable to the Subscription line that is being renewed on the date upon which the renewal is processed (plus any applicable sales tax and/or shipping fees). By way of illustration, if you purchase a 12-month Subscription, your Subscription will renew to an additional 12-month Subscription term at the rate for that additional Subscription at the time of the renewal is processed; this price may be different than the rate that applied during the initial Subscription term. You may elect to cancel a Subscription or not renew a Subscription at your discretion.
Payments for Subscriptions will continue until you elect to cancel the Subscription. If for any reason your Subscription has fewer packages remaining than the renewal term, you will be charged a prorated amount for the remaining packages.
You may elect to cancel your Subscription at any time by logging into My Account and cancelling the Subscription or by emailing SPArty Girl Customer Care Team at info@spartygirl.com Cancellation must occur at least 3 days prior to your next billing date, which can be found in your My Account under Manage Subscriptions or by emailing SPArty Girl Customer Care Team at info@spartygirl.com Any packages paid for prior to cancelling, be it from your initial or a renewal term, will continue to be delivered.
In order to continue your Subscription or complete a Product sale, you authorize SPArty Girl to charge your Payment Method for the payment due. SPArty Girl reserves the right to change the timing of its billing in its discretion including but not limited to, the following if your Payment Method has not successfully settled; if there are unforeseen delays that hinder SPArty Girl ability to ship to you; or if there are changes to your account or Subscriptions. Please note that you may request to switch from one Subscription line (Ear) to another if this is offered as per of the functionality associated with your Subscription. In addition, your Subscription to a particular Subscription line may automatically progress to next Subscription line as a convenience to you in the event you have received all available Products under a Subscription. If your Subscription is automatically switched from your current Subscription line (an "Updated Subscription") to another Subscription you will be notified via email. You may decline an Updated Subscription by contacting us at info@spartygirl.com.
SPArty Girl reserves the right to retry billing your Payment Method after failed attempts (e.g., if your Payment Method is rejected). SPArty Girl may update your Payment Method with information provided by the applicable payment service provider(s), and you authorize SPArty Girl and its payment service provider(s) to continue to charge amounts due to the updated Payment Method. SPArty Girl may charge your Payment Method even though it has expired by extending the expiration date of your Payment Method. This will continue until you notify SPArty Girl that your Payment Method is no longer valid.
RETURNS
SPArty Girl does not accept returns of its monthly Subscription packages or Products if you change your mind. However, if a Subscription package or Product you received was damaged or incomplete, please email Customer service SPArty Girl Care Team at info@spartygirl.com for resolution. Resolution may include shipment of a replacement Subscription package or Product, an extension of your Subscription or similar corrective actions. To the extent permitted by law, SPArty Girl may, in its sole discretion, choose which resolution method to use.
