Electronic Waste Recycling Act
The Electronic Waste Recycling Act ("Act") became law in California on July 1, 2004. The primary objective of this law is to initiate a recycling program for computer products containing chemicals deemed hazardous to the environment. To fund this program, California requires retailers and e-tailers to collect, on the state's behalf, a fee for each product covered by this law. The fee is paid by the consumer at the time of purchase of the covered product. This fee will be remitted directly to the state by us and only applies to orders shipped within California.
The types of products that we are required to collect are HP printers, Copiers, and HP plotters. You may ship these items and mark the box "E-waste) or "Please Recycle" and we will properly dispose of your waste.
For more information concerning the scope and details of the Act, please refer to the California Integrated Waste Management Board's website at http://www.ciwmb.ca.gov/Electronics/Act2003 or to the Department of Toxic Substances Control's website at http://www.dtsc.ca.gov/HazardousWaste/CRTs/SB20.html

Chargeback Policy
A Chargeback is when a bank forcibly reverses a credit card transaction, returning funds to the cardholder; this is known as a chargeback. Chargebacks are usually performed when fraudulent purchases have been made on a person’s credit card. Also, chargebacks may also happen when a customer violates a company’s policy and forces a refund through his/her bank. This action is against our policy and you are still responsible to adhere to the terms and conditions of your purchase. Sometimes, consumers may accidentally request a chargeback for unknown reason; as a result, it is possible to interpret such action as consumer "fraud".
Handle Chargebacks
When Secured Account receives a chargeback notice, the account in which the service was purchased is immediately blocked. Open RMA’s will be placed on hold and customer support will be channeled through your chargeback bank. Secured Account considers chargebacks to be the result of fraud; since fraudulent purchases go hand-in-hand with malware and phishing we immediate termination of all services related to the chargeback in order to protect our customers from credit card fraud.
How to cancel a chargeback
To undo a chargeback, you must contact your credit card provider and issue a chargeback reversal. Reversing the chargeback is the way to restore a blocked account or restore an RMA related issue. Chargeback reversal notices are often sent by postal mail, which can result in days without access to the account or its services; when contacting your provider please ensure they fax a copy of the paperwork to your on-line store vendor to allow us to restore account access as quickly as possible. Secured Account is more than willing to help you resolve the issue. Remember, restore a blocked account or get vendor customer support by reversing your chargeback. A chargeback reversal returns the initial funds to us, cancels the penalty fee we receive for "allowing" fraud to be committed, and generally erases any "black marks" against us for the transaction.
When you reverse a charge
Reversing a charge you don’t recognize or simply don't want? Don’t do it, you might be committing fraud. You can't claim that a charge wasn't authorized by you simply because you didn't like what product or service you received (or even if you received no product or service) if in fact you authorized the charge. When you do that as a buyer, you have just committed friendly fraud as a matter of convenience. The Card Company or Merchant can do incidences report where card holders falsely claim they didn't authorize a transaction to police. Law enforcement can then refer the matter to the DA's Office which can file charges against you for fraud, which can be charged as a felony.
Avoid friendly miss-understandings and litigation
Despite credit card settlements and reversal settlements outcome, you authorize Secured Account and store affiliates to charge your account for unpaid invoices, RMA returns, and fees associated with transactions. You have acknowledge and accept financial responsibility for your purchases and consent Secured Account and affiliates to make charges to your previously used credit card and payment methods in your guest or registered account (s) file. Further, you consent and authorize withdrawals of funds from any form of payment (not limited to credit cards) you might have provided during transactions or account registration. Non-payment of fees and withholding such fees by not providing a payment method will incur late fees, collection fees, and prosecution charges, according to California State law.

Dispute
When a disputed Chargeback transaction is filed, such dispute is to be held within the terms and conditions of this contractual agreement. Whenever a chargeback from a credit card bank clears or money is returned to you (the customer), terms and conditions of this contract have to be met in order to relieve you from legal responsibilities. For example, if a chargeback is filed and you are in possession of the item shipped to you or per your request, to your customer; you are responsible for the payment or return (at your expense) of that item. It is illegal and can be considered "theft" if you order a part from us, file a chargeback, and keep the part (goods purchased). Your account will accrue payment late fees at a rate of 20% monthly, from invoice total if part(s) are not returned.
Petty Theft (Penal Code 484) and Grand Theft (Penal Code 487) are the two most commonly charged theft offenses. The only difference between petty theft and grand theft is the value of the allegedly stolen property – if the allegedly stolen property has a value of $400 or more grand theft may be charged.
If a disputed transaction is filed and you get a chargeback reversal, you agree to return the items purchased back to our RMA department (listed on Returns section) at your own expense to avoid legal recourse.
