   - Third-Party Data: We use third-party purchase processing companies (e.g., Square, PayPal, etc.) to handle transactions. We do not directly collect sensitive payment information, as it is managed by third-party providers.

2. No Extra Cost to You: When you use an affiliate link to make a purchase, it does not increase the price you pay. The commission comes at no additional cost to you, and you may even receive a discount depending on the affiliate arrangement.
3. Transparency: We value our relationship with our users and want to be upfront about any partnerships that might result in commissions.

Commitment to Quality:

We are committed to providing clear, helpful guidance on using our ISO 9001 templates and resources. These Customer Support Terms outline the scope of support we provide to ensure you have the best possible experience.

Purpose
These Customer Support Terms outline the level of support provided by Caelum Opus Quality Solutions ("we" or "us") for the products purchased from our website. Given the limited size of our team, our customer support is limited and we want to ensure that our customers are aware of the scope and limitations of our support services.

1. Support Contact Method:
   - All customer support inquiries should be directed to support@caelumopus.com.
   - Our primary method of communication for customer support is via email.

   - We will respond to inquiries related to the usage of the downloadable documents and templates.
   - We will assist with clarifications about the content or the structure of the documents.
   - We will provide limited assistance with technical issues related to downloading or accessing the products (e.g., broken links or corrupted files).

3. Response Time:
   As a small team, our responses may not be immediate. We strive to respond to all inquiries as soon as possible.
   We aim to respond to customer inquiries within 3 business days (excluding weekends and holidays). However, due to the nature of our business, there may be times when responses are delayed.

4. Limitations of Support:
   Our support is primarily focused on resolving technical issues related to the product (e.g., file issues, download problems) and answering basic questions about how to use the documents.

   We do not offer support for questions related to implementing the documents into complex business processes or organizational systems. We recommend seeking additional professional help if you require more in-depth support.

5. Availability of Support:
   Our support is available during regular business hours, but since we are a small operation, support may be intermittent and depend on our availability. If we are unavailable due to personal or business reasons, we will do our best to communicate any delays or unavailability on the support page of our website.

6. No Guarantee of Support for Third-Party Issues:
   We cannot provide support for third-party issues related to software, hardware, or services not directly provided by Caelum Opus Quality Solutions. This includes issues with email services, browsers, or external software used to open the documents.

7. Refunds for Unresolved Support Issues:
   If a technical issue with our documents cannot be resolved, we will offer a refund in accordance with our Refund Policy. However, we cannot offer refunds for other forms of support (e.g., assistance with document implementation).

8. Changes to Customer Support Terms:
   These Customer Support Terms may be updated from time to time as our business grows and changes. Any updates will be reflected on this page, and we will strive to keep our customers informed.

9. Acknowledgment:
   By purchasing our products, you acknowledge and agree to the limited nature of the support we offer and agree to reach out via the email address provided for any inquiries.
