Terms of Service
Hawaii On Your Own, Inc. is a corporation doing business over the Internet. We provide a service to the public with information about tourists traveling on their own on the island of Oahu. The information provided is as accurate as we know it to be. We are not responsible for any changes that are made by any of the businesses that we have showcased in our product.
You may not copy anything from this website, however, you can use it as research for your project. You may email us for any further information you may need or to ask permission to use anything from this website. Permission must be granted before anything is copied from this website.
We reserve the right, at our discretion, to change, modify, add, or remove portions of these Terms & Conditions at any time. Please check these terms periodically for changes
Refunds
There will be no refunds after purchasing the e-guide because the product is well represented on the preview page. It would be most difficult to have the product returned for a refund without the product being photocopied for buyer's use. Customer service is our first priority and that is why customers are invited to email us with any questions they may have before they purchase the product. Questions are answered within 24 and 48 hours.
If, for some reason, the download does not go well, you will have permission to do one more download at another computer. You will pay another charge for another ebook, then you will be immediately reimbursed for the second ebook.
