If the email address you supply is false, inaccurately spelt, inactive, or subject to measures that prevent the receipt of emails from Blonay Ltd you may not recieve details of your account or further important emails and your account may be terminated. Blonay Ltd accepts no responsibility if important information is not received. You may change your listed email address by visiting the contact page, filling in your details and typing your username, password and new email address in the "your enquiry" box.

1.2 - Duration - Your account will remain active for one year each time your £10.00 subscription fee is paid (one payment cycle). You must have an active payment agreement in operation with PayPal relating to your account for it to remain open, and it will be deactivated at the end of a payment cycle if such an agreement ceases to exist.

1.3 - Availability - While your account is open you will be granted unrestricted access to the download area of Blonay.co.uk. While every effort is made to ensure that the site is available at all times there may be occasions when, due to unforeseen technical difficulties that may affect the server, the Internet in general, or other equipment, the site (including the downloads area) may be unavailable. Blonay Ltd makes no representation that the site will be available at all times and accepts no liability for any temporary unavailability, for which no refunds will be made.

1.4 - Payment - By taking out a subscription on the Blonay.co.uk site you request PayPal to transfer £10.00 to Blonay Ltd from your elected credit or debit card and to make further transfers on a recurring annual basis (payments are made to cover the subscription period for the forthcoming year, if account termination occurs part-way through a subscription your account will remain active until the end of the current payment cycle). These transfers will continue until you cancel your account and instruct PayPal to stop these transfers (see section 2). Please note that Blonay Ltd is at no time made aware of your card details, and as such is unable to make charges to your card or payment options. The payment agreement you make when you subscribe is between yourself and PayPal, and it is your responsibility to administer this agreement. Blonay Ltd cannot be held responsible for unwanted transfers of money made as a result of your negligence to administer your agreement to your satisfaction, and regrets that, due to the charges involved, cannot make refunds for any payments accidentally made in this manner. Subscriptions may be subject to price changes, but you will be notified in advance of any alterations and given the opportunity to cancel your subscription should you so wish. If we are unable to contact you in the event of a price change your subscription will be cancelled at the end of the current payment cycle and you will need to re-subscribe to continue using the site.

1.5 - Payment Plan - The payment plan consists of a single subscription fee of £10.00 which is non-refundable and is paid in advance for one full year subscription to Blonay Media. At the end of each year unless you have cancelled the payment to PayPal (see 1.4), a £10.00 charge will be transferred from your card automatically to cover the next subscription period (another full year) in line with the request you made of PayPal when you took out your subscription. Should your subscription end for any reason before the end of the year (see section 2) you will continue to have access to the Blonay.co.uk download area until the end of your current payment cycle. Automatic transfers will continue on an annual basis until you terminate the agreement you made with PayPal.

1.6 – What You Get – For your £10.00 annual subscription you will be able to choose a username and password giving you unlimited access to the Download section of the Blonay Media website. The Download section will include at least one full album and may or may not be updated with new material during the year. If before the end of any payment cycle you decide you do not wish to continue your subscription you may cancel your payment with PayPal and your account will be terminated (for more information see section 2). Blonay Ltd cannot be held responsible for unwanted transfers of money made as a result of your negligence to administer your agreement to your satisfaction, and regrets that, due to the charges involved, cannot make refunds for any payments accidentally made in this manner.

2. Account Termination
Your account will be terminated under any of the following conditions:

2.1 -Subscription Cancellation - You may cancel your subscription at any time by logging into your account and following the instructions on the “Unsubscribe” page. Blonay Ltd does not accept email requests for cancellation as these may easily be forged, and because we are unable to access your personal PayPal account to terminate your annual subscription. If you send an email requesting the cancellation of your account you will be directed to the online cancellation facility. Your account will not be cancelled and your subscription will not be stopped. You remain liable for any further payments made in the interim. When you view the unsubscribe page after logging into the site you will be given instructions to help you cancel your PayPal agreement. You are solely responsible for the termination of this agreement and Blonay Ltd neither accepts responsibility nor issues refunds for further payments made as a result of your negligence. It is also possible to cancel your subscription directly through PayPal. When you choose to cancel your payment your account will be closed at the end of the payment cycle (this will be exactly one year after the most recent £10.00 subscription charge has been paid). If your subscription is cancelled, and if for any reason we receive notification that your subscription agreement has been terminated (whether it was your intention to do this or to close your account or not) your account will be closed at the end of the subscription cycle. It is your responsibility to ensure that your subscription agreement remains active for the duration of the period that you wish to access the site and Blonay Ltd accepts no responsibility for any failure on your part to do so.

2.2 - Subscription Failure - If a due subscription payment fails to be made your account will be closed. Potential reasons for subscription payments failing include the card from which payments are made expiring, being cancelled, or having insufficient funds available. Three attempts will be made by PayPal to process the transfer you arranged with them. If all three attempts fail then your account will be closed, usually within 48 hours. If you still wish to use the site you will need to create a new subscription.

2.3 - Account Misuse – Blonay Ltd reserves the right to close without warning any accounts being used for any other purpose than for the download and personal use of the recordings available. Possible forms of misuse include, but are not restricted to the following: (i) Data theft - information provided is for the benefit of the individual subscriber only, and must not be shared, published, or otherwise disseminated in any way; (ii) password-sharing - the sharing of login details is strictly prohibited. Should this situation occur your account will closed with immediate effect; (iii) incorrect information - if the information you provide about yourself is false or incorrect you may be denied access to your account or your account may be closed. This applies in particular to the sign-up process where the use of a false or inaccurate email address or one which cannot receive emails from Blonay Ltd, for which we accept no responsibility and for which no refunds will be issued. No refunds will be given for any accounts closed due to misuse. If your account is closed for misuse you will be sent an email outlining the reasons for this, it will be your responsibility to cancel the annual payment through PayPal. Any payments sent after the termination of your account as a result of your payment agreement remaining active are understood to be donations to Blonay Ltd and are gratefully received.

2.4 - Subscription payment dispute - If you dispute with your credit card company a payment which you have already made and which, as a result of, we have in good faith provided services and access to our site (or which you have made as a result of your failure to cancel your payment agreement), you will remain liable for those payments and in addition a £10 charge per disputed payment. You will be billed for these amounts until payment is received in full, and interest may be applied. Additional charges may also be made to take into account currency fluctuation. In the case of persistent non-payment your debt may be passed on to a third-party debt collection agency. This may affect your credit rating, and could result in legal action being taken against you.

3. Refunds Policy
Refunds will be given at the discretion of the company management, and will be made in exceptional circumstances only, due to the extra costs these refunds incur. Refunds will not be granted for cancelled subscriptions either wholly or in part. A refund will be considered if there has been a failure on the part of Blonay Ltd to fulfil the terms of this agreement, but under no circumstances whatsoever will a refund be considered once the account has been created. Any payments sent after the termination of your account as a result of your payment agreement remaining active are understood to be donations to Blonay Ltd and are gratefully received. They are not refundable, and should you dispute them after the event you remain liable for them under the same conditions as disputed subscription payments (see 2.4).
