Refund Policy
Last updated: December 2024
This refund policy should be reviewed by a legal professional before being considered final. This is an initial draft for website structure purposes.
Our Commitment
At Malinow Audio, we want you to be completely satisfied with your purchase. We understand that buying software online can be uncertain, so we offer a fair refund policy to give you peace of mind.
14-Day Satisfaction Guarantee
We offer a 14-day refund window from the date of purchase. During this period, if you're not satisfied with your purchase for any reason, you may request a full refund.
Eligibility Requirements:
- Request must be made within 14 days of purchase
- License must not have been activated on more than 2 devices
- You must not have previously received a refund for the same product
How to Request a Refund
To request a refund:
- Contact Support - Visit our Support Center and submit a refund request ticket
- Provide Order Details - Include your order number, email address used for purchase, and reason for the refund
- Await Confirmation - We will review your request and respond within 2-3 business days
- License Deactivation - Upon approval, your license will be deactivated and the refund will be processed
Refund Processing
Once approved, refunds are processed as follows:
- Refunds are issued to the original payment method
- Processing takes 5-10 business days depending on your bank
- You will receive an email confirmation when the refund is processed
- The full purchase amount will be refunded (minus any applicable transaction fees charged by payment processors, where legally required)
Non-Refundable Situations
Refunds may not be granted in the following situations:
- Request made after the 14-day refund window
- License has been activated on more than 2 devices
- Evidence of license key sharing or distribution
- Previous refund received for the same product
- Abuse of the refund policy (repeated purchase/refund cycles)
- Violation of our Terms of Service or EULA
Discounted Purchases
Products purchased at a discount or during promotional periods are still eligible for refunds under the same 14-day policy. The refunded amount will be the actual amount paid, not the original list price.
Upgrade Purchases
If you purchased an upgrade from one product version to another:
- Only the upgrade fee is refundable, not the original purchase
- Upon refund, your license will revert to the previous version
Technical Issues
If you're experiencing technical problems with our software:
- Please contact our Support Team first
- Many issues can be resolved with troubleshooting assistance
- If we cannot resolve the issue, you may be eligible for a refund even after the 14-day window
Chargebacks
If you initiate a chargeback with your bank or credit card company instead of contacting us:
- Your license will be immediately revoked
- Your account may be suspended or terminated
- You may be prohibited from future purchases
We encourage you to contact us directly for refunds. We're here to help and want to resolve any issues fairly.
