INFORMATION ABOUT US
We operate the websites oxfordastrologer.com and members.oxfordastrologer.com (“The Websites”). In these terms and conditions, the words “we”, “us”, “our” and similar expressions refer to The Oxford Astrologer and the newsletters and emails we produce.
This document (together with the documents referred to in it) and our Privacy Policy provide our terms and conditions referring to The Websites and membership subscription (“Subscription”).
Please read these terms and conditions carefully before subscribing. You should understand that by subscribing to one of our Services, you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions. If you use or order our Services after we have published any changes you will be bound by those changes. You should check prior to each use or order to ensure that you understand the precise terms & conditions applicable to your visit to The Websites or purchase. You should also carefully review our Privacy Policy before placing an order through The Websites.
SUBSCRIPTION
You can cancel or pause your subscription at any time up to 5 days before your chosen or allocated renewal date as set out in further detail below.
The Subscription consists of an initial charge followed by recurring annual charges. By entering into this Contract, you acknowledge that your subscription has an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges until such time as the Subscription is deactivated. To change your payment method please contact us via the various methods detailed on The Websites. To cancel your Subscription please follow these steps:
- • Go to your account area HERE
- • Click on My Subscription
- • In the ACTIONS row, click the CANCEL button
Please note you can reactivate your subscription here too.
We reserve the right at our absolute discretion not to renew your subscription at any time without giving any reasons for our decision.
PRICE AND PAYMENT
The price of the Services will be as quoted on The Websites when your subscription is created except in cases of obvious error.
All subsequent orders will be the same cost unless a change is made to the subscription charge by us.
We do not have access to view your full credit or debit card details. Payment details are stored securely by third parties to allow recurring payment for future orders. Further details are set out in our privacy policy available here.
Payment Services must be by credit, debit card or Paypal
Please note our third party payment providers may make a temporary charge of up to £1.00 GBP against your payment method. This may appear in your transaction history to verify that your card is working but will be automatically refunded once your payment method is verified.
Payment is processed the morning before your subscription is due to renew. It is your responsibility to ensure sufficient funds are available to process the payment for the order or update payment details if required. If payment for your order is unsuccessful the Service may still be enabled and the sale will be deemed to have occurred. In such circumstances The Oxford Astrologer will reattempt payment.
If our third-party payment provider has new card details (e.g. your previous card expired or was lost or stolen) these will be updated on our system automatically in order to process future payments on your subscription.
PAYMENT COLLECTION & CANCELLATION
If payment is not processed when re-attempted by The Oxford Astrologer we reserve the right to cancel your subscription immediately.
