SUBSCRIPTION AND PRODUCT TERMS 

Prices 

Where prices for subscriptions and products are listed on the App and the Web App, they are  subject to change without notice. Even in the event of the automated processing of your order on  the App or the Web App, you agree that we will have the opportunity to review and accept or  cancel such orders. All orders are also subject to availability. Products displayed on the App and the Web App may have limited quantities. A waitlist may apply to purchase and be in receipt of  a shipped product. 

Additional terms, including but not limited to, price, tax, account access and payment may be  specified on the App and the Web App. Those terms, as amended from time to time, are  incorporated by reference. If any information or terms posted to the App and/or the Web App concerning price, tax, discounts, refunds or cancellations are posted in error, we reserve the right  to amend those terms. We also reserve the right to:

You agree that where (i) you are a subscriber; and (ii) we elect to change the prices for our  subscriptions, we will give you a minimum of 10 days’ notice to elect to cancel your subscription  prior to the change taking effect. 

Subscription Orders 

Our subscriptions are pre-paid. The purchase of a subscription on the App or the Web App constitutes your agreement to receive (or to have a designated third-party receive) shipments of  products. Every month members can select one book, and purchase up to two extra books for  additional costs for each extra book. 

Subscription Duration 

The subscription term is month-to-month. You will pay for your first month’s order at the time  of purchase. 

Auto-renewal 

For each month subsequent to your first month’s order, and if you have not cancelled your  subscription in accordance with the terms in the Cancellation Policy section, your subscription  will auto-renew (I.E. your payment method will be charged) on the first day of the subsequent  month. 

As a subscriber, you authorize us (without notice to you, unless required by applicable law) to  charge monthly renewal plus applicable taxes in accordance with the Prices section. From time  to time, we may change the price associated with the monthly renewal; in such a case, you will  be notified ahead of time and your membership will renew at the then-prevailing price.

Products 

Aardvark conducts research of appropriate literary works for its subscription services and  accordingly selects new works each month. These works are then made available for subscribers to select from. 

We are focused on providing a mix of genres in our selection, including contemporary fiction,  literary fiction, thriller, mystery, romance, non-fiction, historical fiction, and sci-fi works. You  agree that we possess full authority in the selection process for such products provided to  subscribers. 

Every month subscribers can select one book and purchase up to two extra books. The first book  must be from the pool of books selected by Aardvark for that month, whereas the extra book(s)  may be chosen from any month in which Aardvark had previously selected works for its  subscribers. 

Our products are provided to subscribers in physical, hard-cover form. 

Products for Personal Use Only 

All products purchased through the App and/or the Web App are intended for personal use only  and not for resale or any other commercial purpose. We reserve the right to cancel the account  and/or the subscription of any member suspected of violating this requirement and may limit the  number of products that may be ordered on any account. 

Subscription Credit 

As a subscriber, if you (i) forget to make a selection of a book in any given month, or (ii) if none  of the books in that month’s picks appeal to you, our Web App and App retain the credit in your  account for future redemption. If granted a credit, your credit for (i) and/or (ii) for that month  will carry over to the following month and accumulate to an unlimited amount in your account  until you redeem your credits, or you cancel your subscription and/or terminate your account in  accordance with these Terms. You agree that, should you cancel your subscription and/or  terminate your account, you thereby forfeit your right to redeem any outstanding credits accumulated while subscribed to Aardvark. 

Marketing Program 

Aardvark operates a marketing program that, from time to time, recognizes and rewards certain  social media content creators with credits for our products in exchange for those creators’ marketing of our subscription services and products on their social media channel(s).  

The individual(s) selected for this marketing program, and the amount of credits for our products  awarded to the individual(s), shall be decided upon in our sole and absolute discretion. The  credits awarded as part of the marketing program will accumulate until redeemed by the  individual(s) selected for the marketing program.

You agree that your selection to the marketing program does not constitute, and shall not form, a  binding contractual arrangement between you and Aardvark, and that Aardvark maintains sole  and absolute discretion relating to the terms of this marketing program and the accompanying  credits awarded. 

Currency 

All prices on the App and the Web App and marketing materials specify the currency of each  subscription and product, which shall either be in Canadian Dollars or U.S. Dollars. 

Taxes 

You agree to pay all sales taxes, whether Canadian or U.S., applicable to these Terms or arising  in any way from the purchase of subscriptions or products from us. Sales tax will be determined  by the shipping address of the order and will automatically be added to your order in accordance  with the current tax rate at the time of the charge. 

Payment 

We use a third-party payment processor to process payments made by you on the App and the  Web App. Our third-party payment processor is Stripe. Although we may display or link to their  forms on the App or the Web App, when you provide your payment details on the App or the  Web App, you are providing them to Stripe. 

We may have access to view portions of your payment information via the third-party payment  processor. We store only very limited, if any, financial information that we collect. Otherwise,  all financial information is stored by our payment processor, Stripe. You acknowledge that Stripe  may have their own terms and conditions that apply to you. If you have any questions concerning  our third-party payment providers, please contact us at info@aardvarkbookclub.com. 

We will charge all fees for products and subscriptions to the credit card associated with your  order or your account. You agree to provide current, complete and accurate purchase and account  information for all purchases. You agree to promptly update your account and other information,  including your email address and credit card information and expiration dates, so that we can  complete your transactions and contact you as needed. For subscriptions, any updates to your  account (i.e. shipping, billing and address information) must be made prior to the first (1st) day  of each calendar month for the updated details to apply to the subsequent month.  

If the credit card information you provide is incorrect or incomplete, or we are otherwise unable  to process your payment, we will make 5 attempts in the 5 days following the initial failed  payment to complete the transaction. If your payment has not been processed at that time, we will  contact you and inform you of the recurring problem. 

Failure to provide accurate and complete shipping and billing information may result in the delay  or cancellation of your order or a particular delivery.

Shipping 

We will send you emails notifying you when your products have shipped as well as tracking information (when available) relating to the status of your shipment. If shipment of your order is  delayed, we will notify you via email. 

Aardvark does not charge its customers for shipping costs, save for any taxes or customs-duties  on your imported products as a result of an international order, as outlined in the above International Customers section. 

Cancellation Policy 

You can cancel your subscription at any time, from within your account on the App or the Web  App. Once your subscription is cancelled, you will continue to receive any outstanding products  as part of your subscription for that month (i.e., products that you have already paid for), but  your subscription will no longer auto-renew at the end of that month in which you have cancelled your subscription. 

You agree that, should you cancel your subscription and/or terminate your account, you thereby forfeit your right to redeem any outstanding book credits accumulated while subscribed to Aardvark. 

Please note that cancelling a subscription does not prevent the shipment of products associated with the subscription, nor does it actuate a refund for the subscription. Concerns regarding any  aspect of the cancellation policy should be directed to info@aardvarkbookclub.com. 

Return Policy 

If you receive a damaged product or your order is missing items, please contact us at  info@aardvarkbookclub.com with details of the damaged or missing items. We may, in our sole  and absolute discretion, decide to replace your damaged or missing items. However,  photographic evidence of the damage, or condition of the products at the time it was received by  you, will be required. Please take photos and email them to us at the aforementioned email  address as soon as possible.
