Your rights to these materials are limited:
Your purchase entitles you to a license to use these materials for an unlimited period of time. You may sell your copy of these materials to someone else, but in that event, you may not retain any copies or continue to access the materials yourself thereafter. You acknowledge by completing your purchase that these items are the copyrighted works owned by Exotic Publishing - The Escort Law Review, and all rights, other than the license granted hereby, are reserved. Any copying or distribution of these materials in print or electronic form is a violation of copyright law and subject to criminal and civil penalties.
Note: Since fraud has increased in the last few years, for all products or services you order, we now require you to sign a copy of our invoice.
We will send it to you filled out so you just need to print it off, sign it and send it back.
We also require a scanned copy of your photo ID before we can process your order.
Before you refuse this policy of ours outright, be aware that several escort directories and escort review sites now require ID before an escort or an escort agency can even advertise with them. Exotic Publishing (The Escort Law Review) is just one more company requesting this type of information.
We don’t require your SSN, just your government-issued ID, which is already public knowledge. All of your information is kept strictly confidential with us.
As of now Michelle is the only one who sees the ID, and the ID is ONLY used to verify that you are the card holder. The only reason we would ever need to pull up your ID, is if in the future it is necessary because there are problems with your bank. Banks are notorious for blips, so we may also need to use it to prove that you indeed authorized us to charge your credit card.
We have been looking for a 3rd party service that can take your ID on our behalf, but so far we've been unable to find one that will accept the escort industry.
Unfortunately there is a lot of discrimination out there about the escort industry that we can't do anything about. Our goal is to try to build you products and services you can use for your business so you WON'T be judged and treated with such disrespect.
Having The Escort Law Review in your corner is like having someone watching your back, plus we hope to make you feel confident in your decision to get into the escort industry. Remember, you are doing nothing wrong by getting into the escort industry, not unless you are using the industry for negative reasons.
If providing the ID is an absolute problem for you, I recommend that you talk with us first via the phone or e-mail; you can use Western Union to pay and avoid giving us your ID. Understand that we charge a 20% service charge on all Western Union transactions. Yes, we know that Western Union has a bad reputation as a favorite of scammers, but as of right now, we have no other way of receiving cash payments. Obviously you don’t want to send cash through the mail!
Sending Money Orders also requires ID because people can create fake ones. Again, even for that payment method we include a 15% service charge on top of our regular prices to make up for the extra work involved in dealing with a money order.
We also have a survey with common questions companies need for marketing and demographic purposes. We have found this also works as another way to screen, so for some of the products and services on The Escort Law Review, it is mandatory. We don't mean to pry, this information also helps improve our business by understanding what types of people are interested in the escort industry, what products and services they need/want, etc.
For your valuable time filling out the survey, you will receive a $15 coupon to use towards any other product or service worth $20 or more. Details will arrive in your inbox after you have filled it out.
Sorry for any inconvenience; we don't wish to make your life more difficult, but we do have to protect our company as well as our clients.
We thank you for your understanding. That means a lot to us.
- To our trusted clients: Your personal information remains 100% private.
We will NEVER sell, barter, trade or give away anything you send us including your e-mail address. The only exception is that sometimes we grab glowing reviews and put them on our testimonial page, but we never give out your last name, just your first name and last initial. If you ever want to omit your first name, we totally understand and would just replace it with 2 initials.
If you want to start making money, consider selling our business kits to others until you have enough money to buy your own business kit. Click here for our affiliate program.
- To those who desire to be our clients but aren’t yet:
We have an Exotic Publishing badlist blog (often called a ‘blacklist’ elsewhere) where Michelle will publish people who cost Exotic Publishing (The Escort Law Review) money.
This means:
a) they provided false or no ID information at all
b) when given other options they refused to adhere to other company policies or
c) they committed fraud.
This all means NO sale actually went through.
Just so you know, badlists are a common tool in the escort industry.
If you don't fall into any of the categories below, you have absolutely nothing to worry about. Discretion is our middle name, and has been since Michelle started in the escort industry back in 1989.
Here are some other reasons people would go on Michelle's badlist blog:
- People who threaten to call their bank regarding their order. This is a threat and fraud, and we don't tolerate people who threaten or commit fraud.
- People who refuse to be screened by providing ID and refuse to fill out our screening survey. This kind of suspicious behavior leads us to believe this person may be committing some kind of fraud.
Screening for any number of reasons is very common in the escort industry, so you should get used to it now, because you will need to do the same type of screening with your clients. (You can't refuse to be screened and then expect your clients to adhere to your screening procedures. That's hypocritical.) - People who can't figure out how to open one of our contracts and then they blame us.
Please make sure your computer is in top notch order and you know how to follow simple computer instructions. If you don't, please undersand you may need tech support which isn't free. There is a small $25 fee to have someone call you and walk you through troubleshooting your computer.
We are not responsible for your computer. We provide very clear instructions and a very thorough troubleshooting page, so if you are having problems opening one of your contracts, please hire one of our tech support people who help you with your computer. We do NOT offer free tech support. - People who don't belong in this industry because they are mean spirited, are pimps, hookers or just all around disgusting people.
As we hope you already know, Michelle is trying to clean up this industry from very negative people who freak out, steal, commit crimes, abuse or control people, force people to work in the escort industry, force people to have sex with them, back stab, are chronic liars, and generally cause problems wherever they go.
There are enough of those types in existence already. We aren't talking about people who have a bad day or get angry - we all do that occasionally. We are talking about the types of people who are mean-spirited the majority of the time and they intentionally hurt others.
The escort industry needs to change by bringing in pleasant, ethical and professional human beings. That is one of the goals we strive for. - People who become abusive and nasty because they refuse to accept our strict refund policy.
Just like you can't buy a book from a bookstore, read it and then return it, the same rule applies at The Escort Law Review. We work very hard on all of our articles, reports, etc. You can't read and learn from our material and then decide you didn't like it. That's no different than taking a course at a College or University, deciding you don't like the course after you've learned everything you needed to learn and then asking for your money back. It just doesn't happen.
Just so you understand how much we have tried offering refunds, at one time (for a brief week) we offered a refund guarantee. A girl who wanted to become an escort used us to get the information she needed, all the while knowing she was going to ask for a refund.
After she received her refund, we asked her why she wanted a refund. She stated she didn’t learn anything new therefore she felt she deserved a refund. Upon probing further, she finally admitted she didn’t know everything in the business kit. It became clear to us she had gotten her money's worth by reading the educational material, and was simply trying to get something for free.
We consider that fraudulent behavior. Because some people who wish to get into the escort industry are of this nature or they are just looking for handouts because they are broke, we no longer offer refunds.
For those extraordinary situations when we feel there is a legitimate reason for a refund, we will honor it plus we charge a 15% processing fee to cover all the time we have spent with you, plus this covers any charges we were charged to complete and then refund your order. Trust us, that small fee does NOT cover our time, especially when Michelle herself is e-mailing you. Usually she spends a minimum of at least 30-60 minutes discussing things back and forth and ordinarily Michelle bills out at $90/hour for her time.
We all work really really hard to build The Escort Law Review and give you the best we can in products and services. Our copyrighted information is very valuable and several people have worked on each article and report to give you quality, well researched material that would cost anyone 100 times more than what you are paying here, if you went to a lawyer and had him/her research the material and write it up for you.
Like we said, if you don't have any of the traits mentioned above - and 95% of you don't - you have nothing to worry about. It is NOT our goal to hurt others by outing them; it’s only when we feel the person on the other end has the traits mentioned above or threatened to commit fraud against us that they end up on the badlist.
Bottom line is, Michelle just loves helping others. She's always been this way.
Out of the over 1,000 happy clients to date, only 5% have ever made it onto that badlist and they aren't actual clients, meaning they never actually spent money with Exotic Publishing or the Escort Law Review. And just to be clear, Michelle doesn't believe you should ONLY treat clients with respect; even potential clients deserve kindness and respect. Not like other companies that only treat you nicely when you've spent money with them.
Please make sure that you are serious about purchasing our legal products and services before you move forward. People who play games online by changing their minds after they have already purchased are low in our books. Businesses lose money in fees, time, stress, paying support staff, etc. When you cause companies to lose money, it's not fair to them and it directly affects their paying clients as well.
If you are uncertain about the company you are purchasing from, then e-mail or phone them to talk to them first. Get a feel for who they are before you take out your credit card. Michelle would love to talk to you first, she often has people who are interested in purchasing e-mail or call her.
No one at Exotic Publishing (The Escort Law Review) will fault you for screening. That is what Michelle does when she doesn't know the company.
Michelle NEVER changes her mind after purchasing something, not unless the product doesn't work, the company rep has disappeared, or they mislead their service, and because of her screening practices, that is very rare.
We won't disappear. We are always here for you unless we are attending to business outside of the office and even then we keep on top of e-mails to ensure you are taken care of. - Lastly, if you ever commit fraud by calling your bank and lying about your purchase and your credit card purchase comes back as fraudulent, we WILL send it to collections which will affect your credit rating.
There will also be an extra $50 fee to cover our bank fees, plus a 40% service charge on top of that amount to cover the collection agency fees, or any additional fees the collection agency charges.
We hope we NEVER have to deal with anything you have read above and 99% of the time we don't, but we wanted to be upfront about our policies so there are no surprises down the road.
So that's it for our business policies.
Just a last word about some of our products:
Because we need to keep our contracts and other legal material safe and secure, we wrap it in a protection program which won't work on a MAC. You can still purchase if you have a MAC, it just means you will need to print it off on a friend's PC or call Kinkos to see if you can open a .exe file on their computer.
We apologize for any inconvenience. We know you love your MAC, but you also know that there are many programs that don't work on MACs. That's why we always recommend you have a PC and a MAC.
Note: Sometimes Kinkos won't let you unwrap the business kit on their computers, sometimes they will. They have a very strong firewall that doesn't usually allow that, but just call them before you open the files on their computer. As them if you can print out files wrapped in a .exe file.
We thank you very much for visiting our site. Feel free to ask us any questions, and we look forward to you becoming one of our many special clients of The Escort Law Review!
