Rental collection authorization

User will not cancel or exceed the purchasing limits of the credit or debit card until either the rented textbooks are returned to BooksRun or the Non-Return or Property Damage Fees are paid. If the credit or debit card is declined, User's account will be sent to a Third Party Collection Agency.

BooksRun will make reasonable efforts to process transactions in a timely manner. User agrees not to hold BooksRun responsible in the event BooksRun does not credit or debit a credit or debit card for a period of time due to circumstances beyond its control. BooksRun makes no guarantees regarding the processing time for charges.

In order for BooksRun to service the order or to collect any amount owed, unless otherwise prohibited by applicable law, BooksRun or a designated Third Party Collection Agency is authorized to (i) contact User by telephone at the telephone number(s) in the contact information provided, including wireless telephone numbers, that could result in charges to User, (ii) contact User by sending text messages (message and data rates may apply) or emails, using any email address provided and/or (iii) methods of contact may include using pre-recorded/artificial voice message and/or use of an automatic dialing device, as applicable.
