Terms and Conditions

These are the terms of use ("Terms of Use") for your use of services or features on the sites owned and controlled by Belcam Inc. ("Belcam"), including www.belcamshop.com and {{config path="web/unsecure/base_url"}} (the "Sites"). We may add additional Sites from time to time as we expand our beauty offerings and these Terms of Use will govern those new Sites when added. You may be accessing our Sites from a computer or mobile phone device (through an iPhone application, for example) and these Terms of Use govern your use of our Sites and your conduct, regardless of the means of access. You may be using our interactive services ("Interactive Services"), such as Ratings & Reviews (the "RR Service"), and these Terms of Use govern your use of those Interactive Services.

We also like to interact with you on third party sites where we post content or invite your feedback, such as www.facebook.com/belcamshop, www.twitter.com/belcamshop, http://sowgoodbeauty.wordpress.com, www.insideperfume.com and www.bodybathandbeauty.com. Our Terms of Use and other areas of our Sites provide guidelines ("Guidelines") and rules and regulations ("Rules") in connection with our Interactive Services, including services that involve Third Party Sites, but Belcam does not control those Third Party Sites, and these Terms of Use, our Guidelines and our Rules do not apply to companies that Belcam does not own or control, or to the actions of people that Belcam does not employ or manage. You should always check the terms of use posted on Third Party Sites.

By using the Sites, you signify your agreement to these Terms of Use, our Privacy Policy (available at www.belcamshop.com/privacy-policy) and our Guidelines and Rules, whether or not you have read them. If you do not agree with any of these, you should not use our Sites.

Belcam reserves the right to change or modify any of the terms and conditions contained in the Terms of Use, Guidelines and Rules from time to time at any time, without notice, and in its sole discretion. If Belcam decides to change these Terms of Use, Belcam will post a new version on the Sites and update the date set forth above. Any changes or modifications to these Terms of Use, Guidelines or Rules will be effective upon posting of the revisions. Your continued use of the Sites following posting of any changes or modifications constitutes your acceptance of such changes or modifications and if you do not agree with these changes or modifications, you must immediately cease using the Sites. For this reason, you should frequently review these Terms of Use, our Guidelines and Rules and any other applicable policies, including their dates, to understand the terms and conditions that apply to your use of the Sites.
