Return & Cancellation Policy
Last Updated: June 3, 2025 Effective Date: June 3, 2025
This Return & Cancellation Policy ("Policy") applies to all subscriptions and add-on services purchased through the Cyber Wed platform operated by [Company Name] ("Company," "we," "us").
1. General Policy — No Refunds on Memberships
All subscription fees are non-refundable. This is consistent with standard SaaS (Software as a Service) industry practice because:
- Access to the Service (including cybersecurity tools, dashboards, and reports) is granted immediately upon payment
- We incur infrastructure, licensing, and support costs from the moment your subscription activates
- Subscription plans do not involve physical goods that can be returned
By purchasing a subscription, you acknowledge and agree to this no-refund policy.
2. Exceptions — Billing Errors
We will issue a full refund in the following limited circumstances:
| Situation | Refund Eligibility | Timeframe to Request | |---|---|---| | Duplicate charge (charged twice for the same period) | ✅ Full refund of duplicate | 30 days from charge date | | Incorrect amount charged (price different from quoted) | ✅ Difference refunded | 30 days from charge date | | Technical failure preventing all access (verified by us) | ✅ Pro-rated refund for downtime | 14 days of the downtime event | | Unauthorized charge (fraud on your account) | ✅ Full refund upon verification | 60 days from charge date |
To request a billing error refund, email legal@[yourdomain].com with:
- Your account email
- The charge date and amount
- A brief description of the error
We will review and respond within 5 business days.
3. How to Cancel Your Subscription
You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account dashboard:
- Sign in at [yourdomain.com/dashboard]
- Navigate to Account Settings → Subscription
- Click Cancel Subscription
- Confirm cancellation
What Happens After Cancellation
- Your subscription remains active until the end of the current billing period — you retain full access during this time
- You will not be charged for the next billing cycle
- Your data will be retained for 90 days after cancellation, then permanently deleted
- You may reactivate your subscription at any time within the 90-day retention window without losing your data
4. Annual Plan Cancellations
If you purchased an annual subscription and wish to cancel:
- You may cancel auto-renewal at any time; your access continues until the annual period ends
- We do not provide pro-rated refunds for the remaining months of an annual plan
- Exception: If you cancel within 7 days of your annual renewal date and have not materially used the Service during those 7 days, contact us for a courtesy review
5. Add-On Service Cancellations
One-Time Add-Ons (e.g., Penetration Test Report, Compliance Audit)
- One-time service add-ons are non-refundable once work has commenced
- If you purchased an add-on and work has not yet started, you may request cancellation within 48 hours of purchase for a full refund
- Contact legal@[yourdomain].com to request cancellation
Recurring Add-Ons (e.g., Incident Response Retainer)
- Recurring add-ons follow the same cancellation terms as subscriptions (cancel anytime, effective at end of billing period)
- No pro-rated refunds are issued for partial billing periods
6. Free Trial Cancellations
If you are on a free trial:
- You may cancel at any time during the trial with no charge
- If you do not cancel before the trial ends, your payment method will be charged the applicable subscription rate
- We will send a reminder email 3 days before your trial ends
7. Account Termination by Company
In the event we terminate your account due to a violation of our Terms & Conditions (including unauthorized use of cybersecurity tools), no refund will be issued for any unused portion of your subscription. This includes terminations due to:
- Violation of the Acceptable Use Policy
- Fraudulent activity
- Chargebacks filed against legitimate charges
8. Chargebacks
If you initiate a chargeback with your bank or card issuer for a charge that does not qualify for a refund under this Policy, we reserve the right to:
- Suspend your account immediately pending resolution
- Dispute the chargeback with supporting documentation
- Assess a $25 dispute fee for chargebacks determined to be invalid
We encourage you to contact us before initiating a chargeback — most billing concerns can be resolved quickly.
