Usage of our services constitutes customer’s acceptance of IntoMeSee, LLC’s billing policy. Following is the billing policy with which all customers must comply:

Payment Options
We accept Credit Card and Paypal only. Other options must be approved in advance and in writing.

General Policies

  • Customers are responsible for keeping all credit/debit card details and contact information current. Please email coach@shonnielavender.com to inform us of any changes.
  • All contracted fees are automatically charged to the credit/debit card on file.
  • Payment receipts are available to customers upon request.

Delinquency Policies

  • Delinquent Accounts: All accounts 30 days past due may be disabled or de-activated until balances are paid in full.

Fees

  • Late Fee: Invoices which remain unpaid after 30-days may be assessed a late fee of $50.00 per month.

  • Returned Item Fee: There is a $50.00 insufficient funds check fee for returned checks in addition to the amount still due.
  • Collections Fee: In the event an account is submitted to a third-party collections service, the client will be responsible for the full amount of the collections fees, in addition to any other fees previously assessed on the account.

Cancellations
Cancellation of an account does not dismiss outstanding invoices or the contracted commitments. At the time of cancellation, any outstanding balance must be settled. All cancelled accounts with an outstanding balance may be automatically turned over to a third-party collection service.

Billing Disputes
As a current or prior customer, each customer agrees to provide 30 days to attempt settlement of any billing dispute before disputing with any third-party credit/debit card company or bank. We must be the first option in billing disputes. Should IntoMeSee, LLC (Shonnie Lavender) receive a chargeback from a third-party credit/debit card company or bank on the customer’s behalf before we have been given a chance to resolve the issue, we have the right to collect on the rendered services and any fees associated with those disputes. Regardless of the outcome of the chargeback, IntoMeSee, LLC (Shonnie Lavender) retains the right to collect on any rendered services or fees that are due. IntoMeSee, LLC (Shonnie Lavender) will submit any disputed amounts to a collection agency. Once a chargeback has been received, we will immediately suspend the account until the matter is resolved.

Refunds
Our policy at IntoMeSee, LLC (Shonnie Lavender) is that all sales are final. There are no refunds and you are responsible for the full amount of the order, whether you pay in full or choose a payment plan. We understand there are extenuating circumstances that may prevent you from adhering to your original agreement. As such, in special circumstances as approved by IntoMeSee, LLC (Shonnie Lavender) in writing, you may be approved to roll your payments over to secure a spot in another retreat, coaching group, or workshop within 6 months. These requests must be made within 30 days of submitting payment. By placing your order with us, you are indicating your agreement to these terms.

California Online Privacy Protection Act
CalOPPA is the first state law in the nation to require commercial websites and online services to post a privacy policy. The law’s reach stretches well beyond California to require a person or company in the United States (and conceivably the world) that operates websites collecting personally identifiable information from California consumers to post a conspicuous privacy policy on its website stating exactly the information being collected and those individuals with whom it is being shared, and to comply with this policy. – See more at: http://consumercal.org/california-online-privacy-protection-act-caloppa/#sthash.0FdRbT51.dpuf

  • Users can visit our site anonymously
  • Once this privacy policy is created, we will add a link to it on our home page, or as a minimum on the first significant page after entering our website.

COPPA (Children Online Privacy Protection Act)
When it comes to the collection of personal information from children under 13, the Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA) puts parents in control. The Federal Trade Commission, the nation’s consumer protection agency, enforces the COPPA Rule, which spells out what operators of websites and online services must do to protect children’s privacy and safety online.
We do not specifically market to children under 13.

Fair Information Practices
The Fair Information Practices Principles form the backbone of privacy law in the United States and the concepts they include have played a significant role in the development of data protection laws around the globe. Understanding the Fair Information Practice Principles and how they should be implemented is critical to comply with the various privacy laws that protect personal information.
In order to be in line with Fair Information Practices we will take the following responsive action, should a data breach occur:

We will notify the users via email

We will notify the users via in site notification

  • Within 2 business days

We also agree to the individual redress principle, which requires that individuals have a right to pursue legally enforceable rights against data collectors and processors who fail to adhere to the law. This principle requires not only that individuals have enforceable rights against data users, but also that individuals have recourse to courts or a government agency to investigate and/or prosecute non-compliance by data processors.

CAN SPAM Act
The CAN-SPAM Act is a law that sets the rules for commercial email, establishes requirements for commercial messages, gives recipients the right to have emails stopped from being sent to them, and spells out tough penalties for violations.
