Reading sale
The product on the Site is online access - permanent or temporary (at the user's option) - to the texts of books that do not have the stickers “Free” or “In Work”.
The Owner reserves the right at any time to change stickers on books and, accordingly, access to them, as well as prices for this access.
Books (including paid ones) are provided exclusively in online reading mode.
Only registered users can purchase access (both for themselves and to a friend).
When you buy access to a book for a friend as a gift, you are fully responsible for the authenticity of your friend’s email, since access will be granted to the owner of the email you specify. First, he will receive a letter with a gift notification (your text) and automatic registration on the Site. Please notify your friend about the gift through another communication channel additionally so that he does not accept letters from the Site for fraud, and remind her / him to check the Spam folder.
In the case of buying / receiving as a gift access to the text of a paid book, the user also acquires the right to comment on this book (regardless of whether the access, permanent or temporary, was purchased / received as a gift).
In the user’s account, the user can view the books bought or received as a gift (indicating access - permanent or temporary), and can also find all his comments on the Site (with the possibility of switching to their exact location).
As a rule, after payment through a payment gateway selected by the user, money is credited within a few seconds, and returning to the page of the paid book, the user gets access to the full text for a paid period of time. The "Excerpt" button changes to the "Read" button. ATTENTION! In the case of temporary access, the timer starts at the moment of the FIRST opening of the full text of the book and shows the remaining time in the lower black panel on the left. If you are not sure that you can read in the coming days, do not open the book immediately!
In some cases, the payment may take several minutes. Unfortunately, this does not depend on the Site. The speed is affected by the work of your bank, as well as the payment system you have chosen.
If after payment (deducting money from your account) you did not have access to read the book, contact the Site Administration. To do this, please use the "Contact Administration" form at the bottom of the page, where indicate your email address (used as a login) and formulate a complaint in which note the payment method and paid book. Be sure to send a copy confirming the payment of SMS or e-mail so that the Site Administration can complain to the payment system (only if there is a copy of the automatic SMS / e-mail, which contains the ID code of the payment, the payment system will accept the complaint).
If, after gaining access to the full text of the book, you are having trouble reading, please use the "Report a bug" function (clicking on the "i" in the upper right corner of the black panel). And be sure to specify order ID and your email used as a login, otherwise it will be impossible to contact you.
Please note that a refund is not provided on the Site. Therefore, if you are not sure that you will like the book (the excerpt was not enough to understand), buy temporary access to the book (which is much cheaper) or do not buy at all.
