Privacy Policy, Terms, Conditions & Disclaimer


Membership / Refunds

CALM CLAN is a monthly or annual membership site. Depending upon the membership plan you choose, you will be automatically charged a monthly or annual membership fee until you unsubscribe. Members are responsible for managing their own account. You cannot cancel your membership via the website contact form or by email. If you want to stop having access to the CALM CLAN, log in and click on your name then click on 'My Profile' in the pop-up window and 'Cancel Subscription'.

No refunds are offered if members forget or didn't realise they were subscribed or on unused proportions of any given month. So if, for example, you are charged on the first day of the month or year and then decide to cancel your membership before the end of the month or year, no partial refunds on the unused days is available. You are however still able to have full access to the CALM CLAN until the end of your payment period. If you are on the annual membership plan, we recommend putting a reminder in your calendar a few days before the end of your first year - so you can decide if you want to continue as a member for another year. Once charged, no refunds.
