At Hydration Essentials, we take your security seriously. All payments made on our site are processed through a secure payment gateway that uses encryption to protect your financial information. Your payment details are handled with the highest level of security to ensure that your personal and financial data remain confidential.

We do not store your credit card information on our servers.

You can shop with confidence, knowing that your data is fully protected.

Order Confirmation
Once your payment has been successfully processed, you will receive a confirmation email with the details of your order. This email will include your order number, the products you purchased, and the shipping information. If you do not receive a confirmation email within 24 hours of placing your order, please contact us at [email protected], and we’ll be happy to assist.

Failed or Declined Payments
In the event that your payment is declined, please double-check the information you provided, such as billing address, card number, and expiration date. If your payment still does not go through, we recommend contacting your card provider or bank for assistance. Should you encounter any issues, feel free to reach out to our customer service team at [email protected], and we will help resolve the issue as quickly as possible.

Taxes and Fees
Depending on your location, applicable taxes may be added to your order at checkout. We calculate these taxes based on the shipping destination, ensuring that you are charged the correct amount. Any additional fees, such as sales tax, will be displayed before you finalize your purchase, so there are no surprises.

Order Modifications and Cancellations
If you need to modify or cancel your order after payment has been made, please contact us immediately at [email protected]. We will do our best to accommodate your request if the order has not yet been processed or shipped. Once an order has been shipped, modifications may not be possible, but you can still return or exchange the item as outlined in our Returns Policy.

Refunds
In cases where a refund is necessary, such as for returned items, the refund will be issued to the original payment method used for the purchase. Once your return is processed and approved, you can expect to receive your refund within 5-7 business days, depending on your bank or payment provider. For further details, please refer to our Returns Policy or contact us directly for assistance.
