We reserve the right to update, discontinue, or otherwise remove access to any product, template, or course at any time. However, for non-subscription products (i.e. products that you pay a single fee to access), your access to that product will be for a minimum of one (1) year.

In the event that we decide to discontinue access to a product on the Platform, we will provide you with written notice at least thirty (30) days in advance before we remove the product and eliminate access to it.
Prices and Payment Terms
All prices posted on this Site are subject to change without notice. The price charged for a product or service will be the price in effect at the time the order is placed and will be set out in your order confirmation email. Price increases will only apply to orders placed after such changes. Posted prices do not include taxes or charges for shipping and handling (if applicable). All such taxes and charges will be added to your order total and will be itemized in your shopping cart and in your order confirmation email.
We accept all major credit cards for all purchases. Credit card transactions are run through a third-party payment processor. You represent and warrant that (i) the credit card information you supply is true, correct, and complete, (ii) you are duly authorized to use such credit card for the purchase, (iii) charges incurred by you will be honored by your credit card company, and (iv) you will pay charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including all applicable taxes, if any.

From time to time, we may offer payment plans for various products and services. If you have selected to make payments under a payment plan, you understand and agree to the following additional terms and conditions:
1. You agree to maintain a valid credit card on file with our credit card processor for the entire term of the payment plan. You understand that it is your responsibility to notify us
2. Payments under the payment plan will be payable as outlined in the payment terms you agreed to when you made your initial payment;
3. You understand that payments will continue until your account is paid in full;
4. I understand that any charges that are declined or otherwise returned for insufficient funds will immediately cause my online account to become delinquent, may result in immediate suspension of my online account, and may result in a referral to a collection agency;
5. I further understand and agree that if I do not follow through with my payment plan as outlined above, and/or if any installment is delinquent beyond ten (10) days, than my account, at the sole option of Evergreen Cypress, may be declared immediately due and payable in full. You furthermore promise to pay all attorney’s fees and other reasonable costs of collection required to collect any amount no paid when due. I understand that if my account is referred to a collection agency, the collection fee is ordinarily thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the total outstanding balance due, for which I will be responsible in addition to the principal debt that is due and payable.
FAILURE TO MAKE ANY PAYMENT DUE UNDER A PAYMENT PLAN MAY RESULT IN IMMEDIATE TERMINATION OF YOUR ACCESS TO THE PLATFORM.
Cancellation and Refund Policy
For our physical products, if you have a question about a refund, please contact us via email. Because many of our products are downloadable/online access and can be used immediately once you have purchased the course they are associated with, there are no refunds. If you have questions or want to make sure a particular course or template is right for your business, please contact us before you purchase.
