• The reason for the return

• Your order number (find this in your order confirmation email)

• Your phone number

• If the item arrived damaged, photos of the damaged item and packaging. Send a close-up photo of the area(s) of concern, and photos of the item as a whole. Photos are required to file a claim for damaged property.

Each returned item must be received in the condition it was in when shipped. Note that all returns will be inspected upon receipt for authenticity and condition. We reserve the right to decline any return or deduct from amounts refundable for any damage to property.

A refund of the purchase price paid, less any charges for which the buyer is responsible will be processed upon confirmation that the item has been returned to the seller. Refunded amounts will be credited to the payment method used to purchase the relevant item.

Note that when returning an item from outside the Philippines, you will be solely responsible for any return shipping costs, including any taxes or custom duties.


Inspecting an Object

Upon delivery of your order, request the shipping carrier's paperwork, and keep all packaging and shipping documents for your records. Note any condition issues, discrepancies, or damage. Take close-up photos and images of the entire item.

Item Issue or Shipping Damage

In the unlikely event that you receive a damaged item, contact our Public Relations team or +632.917.327.9178. We will work with you and the seller (when applicable) to reach a satisfactory solution.

Chiqui Rodriguez disclaims any responsibility or liability related to any third-party marketplace's/merchant's refund policy or the third party's compliance or noncompliance with such policy.


2. The approval of your request for refund and return will be made by CRI and/or Partner if you buy the product/service from CRI's Partners in its sole discretion after reviewing your completed refund/return request and inspecting the condition of the Item that was returned.  The Item that was returned must be, at a minimum, in the following conditions:   
·New and sealed condition;
·Complete, with all items included in the purchase; and
·With original product packaging and price tags.

If any additional conditions apply to a certain Item, CRI will inform you via the Site, SMS or email.  The conditions for the Items subject to return are referred to as the “Return Conditions”.

  • Goods that are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygienic reasons, such as cosmetics, swimwear and underwear.

If any Item is excluded from the Refunds and Return Policy described in these CRI Terms of Service, CRI will make reasonable efforts to publish that information on our Site or otherwise inform the Buyers; however, please note that our policies may change without notice at any time and certain Items may be subject to exclusion after Buyer has purchased them.  Any Item that is subject to exclusion from the Refunds and Return Policy described in these CRI Terms of Service is referred to as an “Excluded Item”.

For Month-to-Month Consulting Subscription

Chiqui Rodriguez does not offer refunds for payments made on a month-month subscription plan. To avoid being charged during a free trial promotion, you must cancel your subscription before your 3-day free trial ends. If you complete a subscription or service during the free trial period, Chiqui Rodriguez reserves the right to require you to pay for a one-month subscription.

​

Your subscription will continue on a month-to-month basis unless and until you cancel or the subscription is suspended or discontinued by Chiqui Rodriguez. For subscriptions to individual topics, Chiqui Rodriguez will automatically discontinue your subscription at the end of the monthly period unless you have subscribed through a third-party marketplace that restricts Chiqui Rodriguez's ability to do so -- e.g., in-app purchases through the Apple App Store. Please visit the third-party marketplace for information regarding their policies. You must cancel your subscription before your monthly renewal date to avoid the next billing.

​

If you cancel your subscription, cancellation will be effective at the end of the current monthly period; you will have continued access to your subscription for the remainder of that period, but you will not receive a refund.

​

Your Chiqui Rodriguez subscription session will continue for the subscription period identified at the time of your purchase and then automatically renew unless and until you cancel your subscription or the subscription is suspended or discontinued by Chiqui Rodriguez.

​

If you cancel your subscription after the first 14 days of your subscription period, you will continue to have access until the end of the subscription period and will not be billed for the next billing cycle.


For One-time Consulting and Product Purchases

One time Consulting

If you cancel your paid Service or consulting subscription for a one-time session 48 hours before the session starts, Chiqui Rodriguez will offer you a complete refund in 5 business days. For avoidance doubt, once you decided to start and have completed a session with your payment, you are not eligible for a refund.  However, if you’re taking the Service through your company or organization similarly, refunds and cancellations will also be governed by the terms of that contract between your organization and Chiqui Rodriguez.​

Local Device Storage and other Tracking Technologies; Do Not Track (DNT):

​

14. The Service will at times place and/or store code or other types of information and/or devices (e.g., “cookies”) on your computer, mobile or other devices (“Local Device Storage”). We may use Local Device Storage for any lawful business purpose, including without limitation to determine which of our messages have been opened by recipients so we can gauge the effectiveness of marketing campaigns, to control the display of ads, to track usage patterns, the movements of individual users, and your geographic location, to help diagnose problems with our servers, to gather broad demographic information, to analyze trends, to conduct research, to deliver editorial content, to record registration and personalization information, and to otherwise administer the Service. For example, if you register on any part of the Service and are given the option to save your user name and password, we may provide this convenience to you via Local Device Storage. Local Device Storage may also collect and store your personally identifiable information, which may be shared with our parent, subsidiaries, and affiliates and other companies.

        

15. If you do not want Local Device Storage, your computer, mobile or other devices may include an option that allows you to not accept it. However, if you disable Local Device Storage, some portions of the Service may not function properly.

We use Tracking Technologies for all or some of the same lawful business purposes we describe above for use of Local Device Storage.

        

17. As discussed below, you may opt-out of third-party tracking on the Service at any time. However, we do not currently support any browser-based Do Not Track (DNT) settings or participate in any DNT frameworks, and we do not assign any meaning to any potential DNT track signals you may send or alter any of our data collection or use practices in response to such signals.

    

How to Opt-Out of Third Party Tracking Technologies:​

18. Our advertising service vendors and other third parties will at times also use Tracking Technologies to serve you advertisements tailored to interests you have shown by browsing on this Service and other sites, applications, destinations, and services you have visited, and to determine whether you have seen a particular advertisement before to avoid sending you to duplicate advertisements, and for other lawful business purposes. In doing so, these third parties will collect non-personally identifiable data including for example the make, model, settings, specifications (e.g., CPU speed, connection speed, browser type, operating system, device identifier) and geographic location of your computer, mobile or other devices, as well as date/time stamp, IP address, pages visited, time of visits, content viewed, ads viewed, the site(s), application(s), destination(s), and/or service(s) you arrived from, and other clickstream data. The use of Tracking Technologies by third parties is subject to their own privacy policies, not this Privacy Policy, and we have no responsibility or liability in connection therewith.

Your consent to this Privacy Policy followed by your submission of such information represents your agreement to any such transfer.
