2. The Evolving Vox Service
The Service allows users to rent products such as furniture and electronics (“Products”) from Evolving Vox in accordance with these Terms of Use.  You may select Products on EvolvingVox.com that you wish to rent to furnish your room.  Upon selecting the Products you will also select the duration of time (the “period”) for which you will be using the Products.  You will then pay the appropriate fee using your credit card on EvolvingVox.com’s secure server.  The amount of your fee will be determined by the Products you choose and the duration for which you choose to use them. 
The periods of use that you may choose from are measured in academic terms.  The exact dates of each term are as defined on the school registrar’s website.
If you return Products in a damaged or dirty condition that exceeds normal wear and tear, as determined by Evolving Vox in its sole discretion, or if you fail to return Products, you agree that Evolving Vox may charge your credit card for such damage or loss.  If your credit card information changes during your period of use, then you agree to inform Evolving Vox of your new credit card information.
