CREDIT CARDS

1. We use ArDo-Cash to provide our card processing infrastructure. The highest level of security and anti-fraud measures exist in their systems to ensure your transactions are safely made over the internet.

2. All credit card purchases will be billed as "Dita's Fan Club" which is what you will see on your card statements. Online Check transactions will be recorded as "jetbill.com" on your account statements.

3. No card details are stored on our server. All card information remains with Jettis. Card numbers are not available to anyone but Jettis and our authorized sales staff. Card numbers are at no point transmitted over the internet without industry standard (128 bit SSL) encryption being applied. This is the strongest form of encryption commonly used for transactions on the web.

4. The only details stored locally on our server are those concerning membership purchases. In this case the dates of transactions and username/password's are stored for the purposes of running and administrating the membership account. No other details are kept locally. These details are not accessable via any of the public interfaces of the site and are only available to authorized technical staff on a per IP/Computer basis.

5. NEVER send us credit card numbers via email. We cannot take orders this way and will reject any such order. Doing so is highly unsafe and may compromise your credit card. Please do not do it.

7. We reserve the right to additionally manually review the details of transactions made from certain countries we consider high risk and optionally to reject such transactions. We also reserve the right to run additional checks against orders originating from free email accounts. Both such orders may be held up while additional verification is performed. We ask for your patience with this procedure which is designed to prevent fraud and is in everyones interest. If you have any questions regarding this please feel free to email the appropriate contact address above.

8. We reserve the right to reject any transaction.

5. By logging into the site and making use of it your first payment becomes non-refundable as you have received access to the website. If you have signed up for 1 month this means 1 months fee will be charged and is not refundable. The same is true of a purchase for 3 months membership. By logging on you are committing yourself to the term you have paid for.

6. In general refunds for membership are not entertained except for:

  • Mistaken Transactions (before the account is activated / used)
  • Fraudulent Transactions

Our record so far (since May 2000) has been 1 hours downtime due to a power supply failure. We continue to strive for this kind of reliability but cannot guarantee it in circumstances beyond our control (e.g. terrorist attack on the data center etc.).
