Refund Policy – Principles
A refund policy is a legally binding document that establishes a legal relationship between you and your customers, outlining the refund process and conditions. Online businesses selling goods may be required to present a return and refund policy (due to local laws and regulations). In some jurisdictions, it may also be required to comply with consumer protection laws. Furthermore, it may be necessary to avoid legal claims from customers who are dissatisfied with their purchases.
Items to be included in the refund policy
Generally, refund policies clearly state the following: the period during which refunds are accepted, the scope of the refund (full or partial), and the conditions for the refund.
