8.1 Pricing and Fees. If you wish to purchase any services through the Website (“Services”), you will be required to supply certain information applicable to your purchase, including payment, billing, contact, and other information. Any such information will be treated as described in our Privacy Policy. All information that you provide to us or our third party payment processor must be accurate, current and complete. YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU HAVE THE LEGAL RIGHT TO USE ANY CREDIT CARDS OR OTHER PAYMENT MEANS USED TO INITIATE ANY TRANSACTION. You agree to pay all charges incurred by you or any users of your account and credit card (or other applicable payment mechanism) at the prices in effect when such charges are incurred. You will also be responsible for paying any applicable taxes relating to your purchases. Verification of information applicable to a purchase may be required prior to our acceptance of any order. The price of the product or service will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order. We use our best efforts to ensure that the price and payment terms advised to you is correct. However please see Section
8.2 for what happens if we discover an error in the price of your order. All payments, including with respect to cancelled Services or returned Products, shall be subject to the terms set forth in Section 4.1 above. Further, as a Customer, you may elect to tip your Therapist. You acknowledge that Blu Wellbeing does not determine or mandate any such tip or gratuity amount and you hereby agree to pay the amount you authorize as a tip for your Therapist.
8.3 When you must pay and how you must pay. You agree to pay all charges incurred by you or any users of your Account and payment card (or other applicable payment mechanism) at the amounts in effect when such charges are incurred. Customers must provide Blu Wellbeing with a valid credit or debit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other accepted issuer) or use Apple Pay or any other payment or financial mechanism specified by Blu Wellbeing (“Payment Provider”) as a condition to making any payments. Therapists must support the use of the Payment Providers and provide Blu Wellbeing with valid bank account information (e.g. account and routing number) as a condition to receiving any payments. The Customer’s Payment Provider agreement governs its use of the designated credit or debit card or other mechanism, and the Customer should refer to that agreement and not this Agreement to determine its rights and liabilities. Blu Wellbeing uses Stripe as the third-party service provider for payment services (e.g., card acceptance, merchant settlement, and related services). By paying for the Services, you agree to be bound by Stripe’s Privacy Policy: https://stripe.com/ca/privacy/ and hereby consent and authorize us and Stripe to share any information and payment instructions you provide with Payment Provider(s) to the minimum extent required to complete your transactions. All information that you provide to us or our third party payment processors must be accurate, current and complete. You will also be responsible for paying any applicable taxes relating to payments that you make or that you receive. While you may cancel your Service at any time, you may not be eligible for a full refund (or for a prorated refund) depending upon the terms relating to your Service found in the applicable order pages, to the maximum extent permitted by law.
8.4 Shipments. Blu Wellbeing currently only ships products to addresses within the 48 contiguous United States. When you place an order, we will confirm your address by sending an email to the email address you provided when you placed your order. Your placement of an order through our Website is an offer to purchase the products and/or services ordered and we may accept your order by processing your payment and shipping the products or making available your purchased services. Your receipt of an electronic or other form of order confirmation does not signify our acceptance of your order, nor does it constitute confirmation of our offer to sell. For any reason, we may decline to accept your order or any part of your order. No order will be considered accepted by Blu Wellbeing until the product(s) has been shipped or service(s) made available. If some of products in your order are temporarily out of stock, we will ship the available products only and notify you of any products that cannot be fulfilled. If we decline to accept your order, we will attempt to notify you at the email address you provided. We further reserve the right any time after receipt of your order, without prior notice to you, to supply less than the quantity you ordered of any item. We may require additional verifications or information before accepting any order.
8.5 Returns. A Product is deemed irrevocably accepted upon your use of the Product. You may return purchased products that have not been opened or used within thirty (30) days for a refund of the purchase price for such returned product. You will be responsible for all shipping and handling charges in connection with any return.
8.6 What happens if we got the price wrong?. It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Services may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order.
8.7 What if I think I was charged incorrectly. You must notify us in writing within seven (7) days after receiving your credit card statement, if you dispute any of our charges on that statement or such dispute will be deemed waived. Billing disputes should be notified to the following address: info@bluwellbeing.com.
8.8 For Therapists. Each Therapist hereby appoints Blu Wellbeing as the Therapist’s limited payment collection agent solely for the purpose of accepting applicable payment from Customers. Each Therapist agrees that payment made by a Customer through Blu Wellbeing shall be considered the same as a payment made directly to the Therapist, and the Therapist will provide its services to the Customer in the agreed-upon manner as if the Therapist has received the payment. Blu Wellbeing reserves the right to charge the Therapist a commission on the fees paid by a Customer to the Therapist for the provision of Therapist’s services (“Blu Wellbeing Commission”). Each Therapist understands that Blu Wellbeing accepts payments from Customers as the Therapist’s limited payment collection agent and that Blu Wellbeing’s obligation to pay the Therapist is subject to and conditional upon successful receipt of the associated payments from Customers. Blu Wellbeing does not guarantee payments to Therapists for amounts that have not been successfully received by Blu Wellbeing from Customers. In accepting appointment as the limited payment collection agent of the Therapist, Blu Wellbeing assumes no liability for any acts or omissions of the Customers. Each Customer acknowledges and agrees that Blu Wellbeing reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to charge Customer for and collect fees from the Customer. In the event a Customer elects to tip the Therapist for the provision of services, the Customer will be charged for such tip amount designated by Customer. Tips will not be subject to any Blu Wellbeing Commission. Blu Wellbeing reserves the right at its discretion to cancel or reverse any payment, even if it has been previously confirmed by Blu Wellbeing, as a result of any mistake or error, including any mistaken pricing or service description or other error.
8.9 What if I need to reschedule or cancel my appointment. If you are a Therapist or Customer, you agree to Blu Wellbeing’s cancellation and rescheduling policy and the associated charges and payments, the terms of which more than one cancellation and rebooking within the same day will be deemed as a credit of service.
