A member will have the right to cancel your subscription at any time upon notice to HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) by email at [email protected] or by visiting (configuración) to manage your subscriptions.

You represent and warrant that you will not use any credit card or other form of payment unless you have all necessary legal authorization to do so.
2. YOU, AND NOT HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM), ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING ANY UNAUTHORIZED AMOUNTS BILLED TO YOUR CREDIT CARD BY A THIRD PARTY. You agree to pay all fees and charges incurred in connection with your purchases (including any applicable taxes) at the rates in effect when the charges were incurred. Unless you notify HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) of any discrepancies within sixty (60) days after they first appear on your credit card statement, you agree that they will be deemed accepted by you for all purposes. If HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) does not receive payment from your credit card issuer or its agent, you agree to pay all amounts due upon demand by HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) or its agents. Sales taxes, or other taxes, customs, import/export charges, or similar governmental charges are not included in the price of the products. You are responsible for paying any such taxes or charges imposed on your purchases, including, but not limited to, sales, use or value-added taxes.

7. Fraudulent Transactions and Unauthorized Card Usage
1. Our platform uses third-party payment processors, such as Stripe and PayPal, to handle all payments and financial transactions. The validation and verification of credit or debit card authenticity is the responsibility of these payment processors. In the event that a transaction is conducted with a stolen or unauthorized card, our platform is not liable for any resulting financial loss. Refund requests or chargebacks based on fraudulent or unauthorized use of payment methods will not be granted, as these cases fall under the jurisdiction of the payment processor. The platform will cooperate with the relevant parties (Stripe, PayPal, etc.) to investigate the issue, but users are responsible for securing their payment methods and reporting any suspicious or fraudulent activity to their financial institution immediately.
8. Non-Refundable Transactions for Digital Services and Wallet Transfers
1. Due to the nature of the services provided, any funds added to a user’s Wallet or transferred between users within the platform are non-refundable.

HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) further reserves the right any time after receipt of your order, without prior notice to you, to supply less than the quantity you ordered of any item.

2. We may require additional verifications or information before accepting any order. Notwithstanding the foregoing, you agree that, if we cancel all or a portion of your order or if we provide you less than the quantity you ordered, your sole and exclusive remedy is either that: (a) we will issue a credit to your credit card account in the amount charged for the cancelled portion or the quantity not provided (if your credit card has already been charged for the order); or (b) we will not charge your credit card for the cancelled portion of the order or the quantity not provided.
3. Do not assume that a cancellation or change of an order you have placed with HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) has been effected until you receive a confirmation from HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) via email or the Service. As stated above, you will be responsible for, and your credit card or third-party payment account may be charged for, the payment of all fees associated with orders already processed or shipped before your cancellation/change request or a request to terminate your account was received.

6. Please note that the DMCA provides that any person who knowingly materially misrepresents that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or misidentification may be subject to liability.

12. Dispute Resolution
1. General

Certain portions of this Paragraph L are deemed to be a "written agreement to arbitrate" pursuant to the Federal Arbitration Act. You and HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) agree that we intend that this Paragraph L satisfies the "writing" requirement of the Federal Arbitration Act.

1. First - Try to Resolve Disputes and Excluded Disputes. If any controversy, allegation, or claim arises out of or relates to the Service, the Content, your User-Generated Content, these Terms, or any Additional Terms, whether heretofore or hereafter arising (collectively, "Dispute"), or to any of HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM)' actual or alleged intellectual property rights (an "Excluded Dispute", which includes those actions set forth in Paragraph L(1)(b), then you and we agree to send a written notice to the other providing a reasonable description of the Dispute or Excluded Dispute, along with a proposed resolution of it. Our notice to you will be sent to you based on the most recent contact information that you provide us. But if no such information exists or if such information is not current, then we have no obligation under this Paragraph L. Your notice to us must be sent via email to [email protected] For a period of sixty (60) days from the date of receipt of notice from the other party, HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) and you will engage in a dialogue in order to attempt to resolve the Dispute or Excluded Dispute, though nothing will require either you or HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) to resolve the Dispute or Excluded Dispute on terms with respect to which you and HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM), in each of our sole discretion, are not comfortable.
2. Binding Arbitration. If we cannot resolve a Dispute as set forth in Paragraph L (1)(a) (or agree to arbitration in writing with respect to an Excluded Dispute) within sixty (60) days of receipt of the notice, then ANY AND ALL DISPUTES ARISING BETWEEN YOU AND HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) (WHETHER BASED IN CONTRACT, STATUTE, REGULATION, ORDINANCE, TORT— INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, FRAUD, ANY OTHER INTENTIONAL TORT OR NEGLIGENCE,—COMMON LAW, CONSTITUTIONAL PROVISION, RESPONDEAT SUPERIOR, AGENCY OR ANY OTHER LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY), WHETHER ARISING BEFORE OR AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THESE TERMS, MUST BE RESOLVED BY FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION. THIS INCLUDES ANY AND ALL DISPUTES BASED ON ANY PRODUCT OR SERVICE PURCHASED THROUGH THE SERVICE OR ADVERTISING AVAILABLE ON OR THROUGH THE SERVICE. For U.S. residents, the Federal Arbitration Act ("FAA"), not state law, shall govern the arbitrability of all disputes between HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) and you regarding these Terms (and any Additional Terms) and the Service, including the "No Class Action Matters" Section below. BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATE, EACH PARTY IS GIVING UP ITS RIGHT TO GO TO COURT AND HAVE ANY DISPUTE HEARD BY A JUDGE OR JURY. HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) and you agree, however, that the applicable state, federal or provincial law, as contemplated in Paragraph L(1)(f) below, shall apply to and govern, as appropriate, any and all claims or causes of action, remedies, and damages arising between you and HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) regarding these Terms and the Service, whether arising or stated in contract, statute, common law, or any other legal theory, without regard to any jurisdiction's choice of law principles. Any Dispute will be resolved solely by binding arbitration in accordance with the then-current Commercial Arbitration Rules ("Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), except as modified herein, and the arbitration will be administered by the AAA. If a party properly submits the Dispute to the AAA for formal arbitration and the AAA is unwilling to set a hearing then either party can elect to have the arbitration administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services Inc. ("JAMS") using JAMS' streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures, or by any other arbitration administration service that you and an officer or legal representative of HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) consent to in writing. If an in-person arbitration hearing is required and you are a U.S. resident, then it will be conducted Austin, Texas. You and we will pay the administrative and arbitrator's fees and other costs in accordance with the applicable arbitration rules; but if applicable arbitration rules or laws require HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) to pay a greater portion or all of such fees and costs in order for this Paragraph L to be enforceable, then HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) will have the right to elect to pay the fees and costs and proceed to arbitration. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator who will apply and be bound by these Terms and any Additional Terms, and will determine any Dispute according to applicable law and facts based upon the record and no other basis, and will issue a reasoned award only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim. All issues are for the arbitrator to decide, except that issues relating to the scope and enforceability of the arbitration and class action waiver provisions are for the court to decide. This arbitration provision shall survive termination of these Terms or the Service. You can obtain AAA and JAMS procedures, rules, and fee information as follows: AAA: 800.778.7879 and http://www.adr.org and JAMS: 800.352.5267 and http://www.jamsadr.com.
3. Limited Time to File Claims.TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF YOU OR WE WANT TO ASSERT A DISPUTE (BUT NOT A EXCLUDED DISPUTE) AGAINST THE OTHER, THEN YOU OR WE MUST COMMENCE IT (BY DELIVERY OF WRITTEN NOTICE AS SET FORTH IN PARAGRAPH L(1)(A)) WITHIN ONE (1) YEAR AFTER THE DISPUTE ARISES -- OR IT WILL BE FOREVER BARRED. Commencing means, as applicable: (a) by delivery of written notice as set forth above in Paragraph L (a); (b) filing for arbitration as set forth in Paragraph L (1)(b); or Paragraph L(f) filing an action in state, Federal or provincial court.
4. Injunctive Relief. The foregoing provisions of this Paragraph L will not apply to any legal action taken by HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) to seek an injunction or other equitable relief in connection with, any loss, cost, or damage (or any potential loss, cost, or damage) relating to the Service, any Content, your User-Generated Content and/or HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM)' intellectual property rights (including such HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) may claim that may be in dispute), HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM)' operations, and/or HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM)' products or services.
5. No Class Action Matters. YOU AND HIT GROUP CORP (THEHIT.COM) AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OR AS AN ASSOCIATION. Disputes will be arbitrated only on an individual basis and will not be joined or consolidated with any other arbitrations or other proceedings that involve any claim or controversy of any other party. There shall be no right or authority for any Dispute to be arbitrated on a class action basis or on any basis involving Disputes brought in a purported representative capacity on behalf of the general public, or other persons or entities similarly situated. But if, for any reason, any court with competent jurisdiction holds that this restriction is unconscionable or unenforceable, then our agreement in Paragraph L to arbitrate will not apply and the Dispute must be brought exclusively in court pursuant to Paragraph L(1)(f). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Paragraph L, any and all issues relating to the scope, interpretation and enforceability of the class action waiver provisions contained herein (described in this "No Class Action Matters" section), are to be decided only by a court of competent jurisdiction, and not by the arbitrator. The arbitrator does not have the power to vary these class action waiver provisions.
6.
