Payment Terms

Every purchase on this site is a one-time charge. There is no subscription, no membership, no trial that turns into a charge, and nothing that renews.

Why this page exists

Plenty of sites bury a recurring charge inside something that looks like a single purchase, so a page confirming the opposite is worth having. At Cedar & Breath there is no recurring billing of any kind. If you ever see a second charge from us for something you bought once, it is a mistake and we want to hear about it the same day.

What you pay

• The price shown is the full price. Nothing is added at checkout.
• No shipping, because nothing is shipped.
• No handling fee, no processing fee, no service charge.
• No sales tax is added at checkout for these digital products.
• All amounts are in US dollars.

How payment is taken

Payment is handled by an external payment provider on their own secure pages. You are shown the exact amount before you confirm. We never see, handle or store your card number, expiry date or security code — all we receive back is a confirmation that the payment succeeded, the amount, and a reference number.

Your statement will usually show the payment provider's descriptor alongside our name. If a charge appears that you do not recognise, email classes@cedarandbreath.info with the date and amount and we will identify it for you.

When you are charged

Once, at the moment you complete the purchase. That is the only time. There is no deferred charge, no instalment plan, no charge on delivery and no charge at the end of any period.

Authorization holds

Some banks place a temporary authorization hold that briefly looks like a second charge. It is not one, and it clears by itself, normally within three to five business days. If a duplicate is still showing after a week, tell us and we will check it against our records and refund immediately if it is real.

Failed payments

If a payment fails, nothing is charged and nothing is delivered. You can simply try again. The most common causes are a mistyped card number, an expired card, or a bank declining an online transaction it does not recognise — a call to your bank usually clears that last one in a minute.

Price changes

We may change prices for future purchases. A change never affects anything you have already bought, and because there is nothing recurring, a price change can never increase a charge you are already committed to.

Currency and international cards

All prices are in US dollars and all charges are made in US dollars. If your card is denominated in another currency, your bank converts at its own rate and may add a foreign transaction fee. That fee is your bank's, not ours, and we cannot refund it.

Refunds

14 days, no reason needed, back to the original payment method. The full terms are in the Refund and Cancellation Policy.

Disputes and chargebacks

If a charge looks wrong to you, please email us before you contact your bank. A chargeback freezes the transaction at the payment provider, which usually makes it impossible for us to refund you directly until the dispute is resolved weeks later — so the slower route is also the one that takes longer to get your money back. We have never refused a refund inside the window, and we can act on an email the same business day.

If you genuinely do not recognise a charge, say so and we will search our records by date and amount and tell you exactly what it was, or confirm that it was not us at all.

Buying as a gift

Buy it in the normal way and forward the delivery email to whoever it is for. There is no separate gifting flow, because building one would mean building an account system and we would rather not. The licence covers one household, so a gift is simply a purchase that lands in a different inbox. If you would like us to send it directly on a particular date, write to us after paying and we will hold it and send it that morning.

Receipts and expense claims

The payment provider emails a receipt at the moment of purchase. If you need another copy, write to us and we will send one. If you need an invoice with a company name, a purchase order number or a different billing address on it for an expense claim or a classroom budget, tell us what it has to say and we will issue one. There is no charge for this and no limit on how long after the purchase you can ask.
