Terms of Use
Last Updated: September 8, 2026
Acceptance of Terms
Welcome to MyHappyLifeBox.com, operated by CMG’s Big Adventure Company DBA My Happy Life Box (“Company,” “we,” “us,” or “My Happy Life Box”).
These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of MyHappyLifeBox.com (the “Site”) and the products, subscriptions, memberships, gatherings, and other services offered by My Happy Life Box (collectively, the “Services”).
Please read these Terms carefully before using the Site or purchasing a product or subscription.
By accessing the Site, creating an account, purchasing a product, or subscribing to any My Happy Life Box service, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use and our Privacy Policy.
If you do not agree to these Terms, please do not use the Site or purchase our products or Services.
Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into a binding contract to purchase from or subscribe through our Site.
If you are using the Site on behalf of another person or entity, you represent that you have authority to accept these Terms on their behalf.
Registration and Account Information
You may be required to create an account to purchase products or subscriptions.
You agree to provide accurate and current information and to keep your account, shipping address, and payment information up to date. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for activity occurring through your account.
Subscription Terms
My Happy Life Box offers several subscription options. The terms of your subscription depend on the plan selected at checkout.
By purchasing a subscription, you authorize My Happy Life Box and its payment processor to automatically charge the payment method on file according to the billing schedule associated with your subscription until the subscription is canceled or otherwise ends according to these Terms.
The price, billing schedule, commitment period, if applicable, and any promotional offer will be disclosed during checkout.
All recurring subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled according to the cancellation terms below.
My Happy Life Box Subscriptions
Initial Orders and Monthly Billing
Your initial My Happy Life Box order is charged when you subscribe and generally ships within two business days.
Recurring My Happy Life Box subscriptions renew on the 14th of each month, with recurring boxes generally shipping on or around the 15th or the next business day.
If an initial subscription is purchased on or after the 30th of the month, the next renewal may be skipped so that you are not charged twice within a short period.
For example, if an initial subscription is purchased January 30, the next recurring charge may occur March 14 rather than February 14.
Shipping is included in subscription prices unless otherwise stated at checkout.
Month-to-Month Plans
Month-to-month My Happy Life Box subscriptions automatically renew until canceled.
There is no long-term commitment on a month-to-month plan.
To prevent the next scheduled renewal charge, cancellation must be completed at least two days before the renewal date.
Commitment Plans
My Happy Life Box may offer 3-, 6-, or 12-month commitment plans at a discounted monthly rate.
When selecting a commitment plan, you agree to purchase one box per month for the entire commitment period shown at checkout.
Although payments are collected monthly, selecting a commitment plan creates an obligation to complete the full subscription term.
Setting a commitment subscription to cancel does not immediately end the commitment. Unless an approved early-cancellation option applies, remaining payments and boxes will continue through the agreed commitment period.
After the initial commitment has been completed, the subscription will automatically convert to a standard month-to-month subscription unless otherwise stated at checkout. The month-to-month subscription will continue to automatically renew until canceled.
Early Cancellation of Commitment Plans
If you wish to end a commitment plan before completing the agreed term, please contact us.
Where eligible under the offer associated with your subscription, you may have the option to end your commitment early by paying a $25 early-cancellation fee associated with the introductory gift or promotional offer.
Depending on the circumstances and promotional offer, we may alternatively allow the first box and promotional gift to be returned at the customer’s expense. All returned merchandise must meet the return conditions described below.
Promotional discounts and gifts offered in exchange for a commitment are provided based upon the customer completing the agreed subscription term. We reserve the right to recover the value of promotional discounts or promotional items when an eligible subscription is ended before the agreed commitment is completed.
Specific terms presented at checkout as part of a promotional offer are incorporated into these Terms.
Prepaid Plans
Prepaid subscriptions are paid in advance for the subscription period selected at checkout.
Prepaid subscriptions automatically renew for another prepaid subscription period unless canceled at least two days before the applicable renewal date.
If you request to cancel a prepaid subscription before all included boxes have been shipped, the boxes already received will be recalculated at the then-current standard month-to-month rate rather than the discounted prepaid rate.
Any eligible refund will be calculated based on the remaining prepaid balance after repricing boxes already received at the standard month-to-month rate and deducting the applicable $25 early-cancellation fee.
If the prepaid plan has already renewed because it was not canceled by the required cancellation deadline and you request a refund of that renewal, the applicable 3% payment-processing deduction described in these Terms may also apply.
Gift Subscriptions
Gift subscriptions are prepaid subscriptions for the duration selected by the purchaser.
Unless specifically stated otherwise at checkout, gift subscriptions do not automatically renew.
My Happy Life Reading Circle
The My Happy Life Reading Circle is a month-to-month book subscription that includes a featured monthly book and invitations to live online Reading Circle gatherings.
Reading Circle members receive the same featured monthly book selected for My Happy Life Box subscribers unless otherwise stated.
Price and Billing
The Reading Circle is currently $24 per month, including shipping, unless a different price or promotional rate is stated at checkout.
Your initial membership payment is charged when you join, and your initial shipment generally ships within two business days.
After the initial purchase, Reading Circle memberships automatically renew on the 20th of each month until canceled.
Recurring Reading Circle books generally ship on the 21st or the next business day.
Late-Month Initial Orders
If you join the Reading Circle on or after the 30th of the month, your next monthly renewal will be skipped so that you are not charged twice within a short period.
For example, if you join January 30, you will not be charged again on February 20. Your next recurring payment will be March 20, with your next recurring book generally shipping March 21 or the next business day.
This provision concerns the timing of your next renewal and does not guarantee which featured book will be included in an initial shipment.
Reading Circle Cancellation
The Reading Circle is month-to-month and has no long-term commitment and no cancellation fee.
You may cancel your Reading Circle membership at any time.
To prevent your next scheduled renewal charge, cancellation must be completed at least two days before the 20th of the month.
If you cancel after a monthly renewal has already been processed and do not request a refund, you will receive the book associated with that renewal and remain eligible to participate in the related Reading Circle gatherings. Your cancellation will prevent subsequent monthly renewals.
Refunds After a Reading Circle Renewal
If a Reading Circle renewal has already been processed and you request that the payment be refunded because you did not cancel before the cancellation deadline, an approved refund will be reduced by 3% to cover nonrefundable credit-card/payment-processing costs.
This 3% deduction is not a cancellation fee or shipping fee.
If the book has not yet shipped, no return is required.
If the book has already shipped, it must be returned at the customer’s expense before a refund can be issued. The book must meet the return requirements described in our Return and Refund Policy below.
Reading Circle Gatherings
Reading Circle membership includes invitations to live online gatherings related to our featured books.
The number, dates, times, format, and availability of gatherings may vary from month to month. Membership does not guarantee a specific number of gatherings or a particular gathering date or time.
Members may attend available gatherings associated with their membership. Missing or being unable to attend a gathering does not qualify the member for a refund or credit.
Gatherings provide an opportunity for members to discuss the featured book, ideas raised by the book, and related experiences and topics.
Privacy and Recording
Reading Circle gatherings are not recorded. This policy is intended to protect participant privacy and provide a space where members can feel comfortable participating in conversation.
Participants may not record, photograph, screen-record, livestream, reproduce, or distribute a Reading Circle gathering or another participant’s comments or image without express permission from My Happy Life Box and the individuals involved.
While we ask participants to respect one another’s privacy, My Happy Life Box cannot guarantee that another participant will keep information shared during a gathering confidential. Members should use their own judgment when sharing personal information.
Community Conduct
Reading Circle participants are expected to communicate respectfully with other members.
We reserve the right to remove a participant from a gathering or terminate access to Reading Circle gatherings for threatening, harassing, discriminatory, abusive, intentionally disruptive, or otherwise inappropriate behavior.
Where a membership is terminated by My Happy Life Box for serious or repeated violations of these community standards, access to future gatherings may be revoked.
My Happy Life Box Subscribers and Reading Circle Gatherings
Access to My Happy Life Reading Circle gatherings is included with eligible My Happy Life Box subscriptions.
Box subscribers do not need to purchase a separate Reading Circle membership to participate in included gatherings.
A Reading Circle subscription and a My Happy Life Box subscription are separate paid subscriptions. Customers who choose to purchase both may receive duplicate copies of the featured monthly book.
Next Chapter Upgrade
The Next Chapter Upgrade is an optional subscription add-on available to eligible My Happy Life Box and My Happy Life Reading Circle subscribers.
The Next Chapter Upgrade provides one additional handpicked book with each qualifying monthly shipment.
The Next Chapter Upgrade is currently $12 per month, unless otherwise stated at checkout.
The Next Chapter Upgrade follows the billing and renewal schedule of the subscription to which it is attached.
If added to a My Happy Life Box subscription, the Upgrade renews when the Box subscription renews. If added to a Reading Circle membership, the Upgrade renews when the Reading Circle membership renews.
The Next Chapter Upgrade automatically renews along with the underlying subscription until canceled.
The Upgrade may be canceled separately without canceling the underlying subscription.
If the underlying subscription is canceled, the associated Next Chapter Upgrade will also be canceled.
The cancellation deadline and applicable refund provisions for the underlying subscription also apply to the Next Chapter Upgrade.
Featured Book Replacement
We understand that occasionally a subscriber may already own the featured book selected for the month.
As a courtesy, active My Happy Life Box and My Happy Life Reading Circle subscribers may request a one-time replacement book during the lifetime of their subscription if they already own a featured monthly book.
Requests must be made within 15 days of delivery of the featured book.
You do not need to return the duplicate book.
The replacement book will be selected by My Happy Life Box and included with the subscriber’s next paid renewal shipment. Replacement books are not shipped separately.
The subscription must remain active through the next paid renewal in order to receive the replacement book. If the subscription is canceled before the next paid renewal, the replacement book will not be shipped and has no cash or refund value.
This courtesy is limited to one replacement book per subscriber and applies when the subscriber already owned the featured book before receiving it.
The replacement policy does not apply simply because a subscriber has previously read the featured book or would prefer a different book selection.
Promotional and Introductory Offers
From time to time, My Happy Life Box may offer discounts, complimentary books, gifts, additional products, or other promotional incentives.
Eligibility requirements and specific conditions for promotional offers will be disclosed with the applicable offer.
Unless otherwise stated, introductory and new-member promotional offers are limited to one per customer and household and have no cash value.
Promotional products cannot be exchanged for cash or substituted unless authorized by My Happy Life Box.
Reading Circle promotional books received as part of an introductory offer do not create a commitment beyond the month-to-month subscription. A Reading Circle member may cancel before the next renewal even if the initial shipment contained one or more promotional books.
Promotions associated with My Happy Life Box commitment plans may be subject to the separate early-cancellation provisions applicable to those plans.
Cancellation of Recurring Subscriptions
Customers are responsible for canceling recurring subscriptions when they no longer wish them to renew.
To prevent a scheduled renewal, cancellations must be completed at least two days before the applicable renewal date.
My Happy Life Box recurring monthly subscriptions currently renew on the 14th of the month.
My Happy Life Reading Circle memberships currently renew on the 20th of the month.
Prepaid subscriptions renew according to the renewal schedule associated with the prepaid plan.
Cancellation prevents future eligible renewals; it does not automatically reverse a payment that has already been processed.
If you have difficulty canceling through your customer account, please contact us at support@myhappylifebox.com before the cancellation deadline.
Refunds of Processed Renewals
If an otherwise valid subscription renewal has already been processed because the subscription was not canceled by the required deadline and the customer requests and is eligible for a refund, the refund will be reduced by 3% to cover nonrefundable credit-card/payment-processing costs.
The 3% deduction is not a cancellation fee and is not a shipping fee.
If the associated order has already shipped, the applicable products must be returned at the customer’s expense and meet the return requirements below before a refund can be issued.
The 3% processing deduction does not apply when a refund is required because My Happy Life Box made an error with the order, including shipping an incorrect or damaged product.
Returns and Refunds
If you are unhappy with an eligible My Happy Life Box or Reading Circle purchase, you may request a return within 15 days of delivery.
Unless the product arrived damaged or incorrect, return shipping is the customer’s responsibility.
Returned products must be received in unused, intact, and resellable condition.
For My Happy Life Box returns, the entire eligible shipment must be returned unless otherwise authorized by customer service. We do not provide refunds for individual products removed from a subscription box.
Books returned for a refund must be in new, resellable condition. Books containing writing, highlighting, torn pages, folded pages or corners, damaged covers, stains, or other signs of use or damage are not eligible for refund.
The Featured Book Replacement courtesy described above is separate from a return. Subscribers requesting the one-time replacement because they already own the featured book do not need to return the duplicate book.
Once an eligible return is received and inspected, the applicable refund will be issued to the original form of payment.
If the refund concerns a subscription renewal that processed because the customer did not cancel by the required cancellation deadline, the applicable 3% payment-processing deduction described above will apply.
If the original payment method is no longer available, we will work with the customer to determine an appropriate alternative after an attempted refund has been rejected by the financial institution.
Nothing in this policy limits any return, refund, or cancellation rights that cannot legally be waived.
Damaged, Incorrect, or Missing Shipments
If your order arrives damaged, contains an incorrect product, or does not arrive, please contact support@myhappylifebox.com as soon as possible so we can help resolve the issue.
Claims concerning missing shipments should be made within 30 days of the expected delivery date.
We may request photographs of damaged products or packaging when reasonably necessary to resolve a claim.
Eligible damaged, incorrect, or missing shipments may be replaced or refunded at our discretion without requiring the customer to pay return shipping for an error attributable to My Happy Life Box.
Customers are responsible for providing a complete and accurate shipping address and for keeping their account information current.
Billing and Payment
By purchasing a recurring subscription, you authorize My Happy Life Box and its payment processor to charge your payment method according to the subscription terms displayed at checkout.
All recurring subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled in accordance with these Terms.
Subscription and product prices may change from time to time. Any price change affecting an existing recurring subscription will be communicated as required by applicable law before the new price is charged.
You are responsible for maintaining valid and current payment information.
If a recurring payment fails, we may attempt to process the payment again using the payment method associated with your account.
Shipping
Shipping is included in subscription prices unless otherwise stated at checkout.
Shipping and delivery dates are estimates and may occasionally be affected by carrier delays, weather, holidays, product availability, or circumstances outside our control.
Tracking information will generally be provided when available.
Customers are responsible for providing an accurate and deliverable mailing address and keeping their shipping information current.
Order Acceptance, Availability, Pricing, and Errors
All orders are subject to acceptance and product availability.
We reserve the right to decline or cancel an order, correct pricing or description errors, limit quantities, or discontinue a product or offer.
If we cancel an order after payment has been processed, the applicable amount will be refunded.
Product pricing and availability may change without notice, subject to applicable laws governing existing subscriptions.
A properly disclosed recurring subscription charge is not considered a billing error merely because the customer forgot to cancel before the applicable cancellation deadline.
Product Safety
Customers are responsible for determining whether products are appropriate for themselves and members of their household.
Please review product labels, ingredients, warnings, directions, and allergen information before use.
Products should be kept away from children and animals when appropriate.
My Happy Life Box is not responsible for injury or adverse reactions caused by misuse of products or failure to follow manufacturer instructions and warnings, except where liability cannot legally be excluded.

We may send transactional emails necessary to administer your orders, subscriptions, account, shipments, payments, and Reading Circle membership.
We may also send marketing emails where permitted by law. You may unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time.
Unsubscribing from marketing emails does not prevent us from sending transactional communications relating to an active order or subscription.
