Once your credit card information reaches PayPal, it resides on a server that is heavily guarded both physically and electronically. PayPal’s servers sit behind an electronic firewall and are not directly connected to the internet, so your private information is available only to authorized computers.

Birth Pools

Regular La Bassine and Birth Pool in a Box birth pools have single use or one year warranties. Any manufacturer's defects need to be reported within 30 days of delivery. It is HIGHLY recommended that pools be opened and inspected well prior to a due date so that if there is a manufacturing defect it can be replaced well in time for the birth. If a pool is purchased second-hand, the warranty is no longer in effect, even if it is within 5 uses or one year from the original purchase. Only an original purchaser can make a warranty claim.

Aquaborn Eco Birth Pools purchased after January 2012 have 5 use or one year warranties. All Aquaborn pools purchased before that time have a single use/one year warranty. The warranty applies only to the original purchaser. If a pool is purchased second-hand, the warranty is no longer in effect, even if it is within 5 uses or one year from the original purchase. Only an original purchaser can make a warranty claim.
