5. Safety; Your Interactions with Other Members.

You agree to use caution in all interactions with other members, particularly if you decide to communicate off the Service or meet in person. In addition, you agree that you will not provide your financial information (for example, your credit card or bank account information), or wire or otherwise send money, to other members.

If you see Content on the Service that violates this Agreement, please report it within the Service.
10. Purchases.
Generally.
From time to time, Puppi-Lovers may offer products and services for purchase (“in app purchases”) through iTunes, Google Play, carrier billing, Puppi-Lovers direct billing or other payment platforms authorized by Puppi-Lovers. If you choose to make an in app purchase, you will be prompted to confirm your purchase with the applicable payment provider, and your method of payment (be it your card or a third party account such as Google Play or iTunes) (your “Payment Method”) will be charged for the in app purchase at the prices displayed to you for the service(s) you’ve selected as well as any sales or similar taxes that may be imposed on your payments, and you authorize Puppi-Lovers or the third party account, as applicable, to charge you. If you purchase an auto-recurring periodic subscription through an in app purchase, your Payment Method will continue to be billed for the subscription until you cancel. After your initial subscription commitment period, and again after any subsequent subscription period, your subscription will automatically continue for an additional equivalent period, at the price you agreed to when subscribing.
Auto-Renewal; Automatic Card Payment
Subscriptions are automatically renewed until you terminate or cancel the subscription. When you purchase a subscription, your Payment Method will continue to be billed monthly in advance within 24 hours of the date of the initial purchase at the price you agreed to when initially subscribing. Your card payment information will be stored and subsequently used for the automatic card payments in accordance with the Agreement.
You may unconditionally withdraw your consent to automatic card payments at any time by going to Settings on Puppi-Lovers or the relevant third party account, but be advised that you are still obligated to pay any outstanding amounts.
If you want to change or terminate your subscription, you will need to log in to your third party account (or Settings on Puppi-Lovers) and follow instructions to terminate or cancel your subscription, even if you have otherwise deleted your account with us or if you have deleted the Puppi-Lovers application from your device. Deleting your account on Puppi-Lovers or deleting the Puppi-Lovers application from your device does not terminate or cancel your subscription; Puppi-Lovers will retain all funds charged to your Payment Method until you terminate or cancel your subscription on Puppi-Lovers or the third party account, as applicable. If you terminate or cancel your subscription, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current subscription term, and your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires.
Additional Terms that apply if you pay Puppi-Lovers directly with your Payment Method.
If you pay Puppi-Lovers directly, Puppi-Lovers may correct any billing errors or mistakes that it makes even if it has already requested or received payment. If you initiate a chargeback or otherwise reverse a payment made with your Payment Method, Puppi-Lovers may terminate your account immediately in its sole discretion.
Refunds.
Generally, all charges for purchases are nonrefundable, and there are no refunds or credits for partially used periods. We may make an exception if a refund for a subscription offering is requested within fourteen days of the transaction date, or if the laws applicable in your jurisdiction provide for refunds.
For subscribers residing in the EU or European Economic Area, in accordance with local law, you are entitled to a full refund without stating the reason during the 14 days after the subscription begins. Please note that this 14-day period commences when the subscription starts.
Purchases of Virtual Items are FINAL AND NON-REFUNDABLE.
To request a refund:
If you subscribed using your Apple ID, refunds are handled by Apple, not Puppi-Lovers. To request a refund, go to iTunes, click on your Apple ID, select “Purchase history”, find the transaction and hit “Report Problem”. You can also submit a request at https://getsupport.apple.com.
If you subscribed using your Google Play Store account or through Puppi-Lovers directly: please contact customer support with your order number for the Google Play Store (you can find the order number in the order confirmation email or by logging in to Google Wallet) or Puppi-Lovers (you can find this on your confirmation email).
If you use your right of cancellation (except for purchases made through your Apple ID, which Apple controls), we will refund (or ask Google to refund) all payments received from you, without undue delay and in any case within 14 days of the date when we received notice of your decision to cancel the Agreement. We shall make such refund using the same means of payment as used by you in the initial transaction. In any case, no fees will be charged to you as a result of the refund.
Pricing.
Puppi-Lovers operates a global business and provides services to a diverse community of members. Our pricing structure may vary by region, length of subscription, bundle size, recent in-app promotions and other factors. We frequently test new features and price points to provide members with increased functionality and payment options should they choose to use them.
