otherwise divulge any customer information. We maintain the highest
standards of confidentiality and respect your need for privacy and security.
- Bulk email Policy From time to time (but in fact very rarely), FFG
may e-mail you with special offers or news of new publications. These offers are usually only available
to our existing customers and often offer very special deals. Most customers
enjoy receiving these e-mails, but if you would prefer to opt out please
let us know by sending an e-mail with the title "opt-out".
- Security of Credit Card Payments FFG uses
the PayPal system operating the strongest encryption system to protect
your transactions. These use secure digital signatures to ensure that each

including card details are sent fully encrypted. Your PayPal account or credit/debit card statement will show a payment to 'EBOOKS-UK'.
- Payment Options All Prices are shown in
Pounds Sterling (GBP). Secure payment is by PayPal. Major credit/debit
cards are also accepted: Visa, MasterCard, Maestro, American Express, Visa Delta and Visa Electron. You can
order from any country using one of the above credit cards.
If you want to know the exchange rate for your currency at the time of
ordering, go to a currency converter such as http://www.xe.com/ucc/ or for a current table of comparative rates for different currencies see http://www.xe.com. For printed magazines orders, cheques
drawn on U.K. banks and British Postal Orders are also acceptable - please

We are happy to notify you by telephone or email, depending on your
country of residence, when your garment is ready for despatch, so that
you can look out for the carrier. Please let us know if you would like
us to do this. Orders sent by Special Delivery in the U.K. should arrive
the next day. We are able to track orders sent by Special Delivery and
will undertake to contact the carrier on the customer's behalf if an
order does not arrive when expected. Please note: A working day is considered
Monday to Friday inclusive but excluding local, public and national
holidays. Orders are usually delivered within the times stated above

the carrier.

ROYAL MAIL, PARCEL FORCE, HERMES or LYNX with charges according to weight of
package. U.K.: Second Class Post (up to 750g); First Class Post (over

the same quality or better. Costumes and clothing items are
MADE TO ORDER, so please allow up to 28 days for manufacture and delivery.
If a clothing order is likely to take longer than 28 days (from receipt

- Refunds: Magazines are not returnable unless the wrong
magazine has been depatched. We will replace, refund or offer a credit

saleable condition within 14 days after you receive them, provided there
is a legitimate reason for the return of the item(s), such as wrong
size.
- Cancellation of made to measure clothing orders: We
