1. Introduction

This Refund Policy ("Policy") sets forth the terms and conditions under which Storifayo LLC ("Storifayo," "Company," "we," "our," or "us") considers refund, cancellation, and return requests for purchases made through the website located at https://projectvilgatekaivenmorrick.com/ (the "Website") and any related services, features, and digital products offered by us (collectively, the "Services").

Storifayo LLC is a digital publishing and online media company that creates, markets, licenses, and distributes downloadable digital literary content and media products. Because our products are delivered instantly in digital format and cannot be physically returned, special refund rules apply, which are described in detail below.

This Policy is incorporated by reference into our Terms of Service and should be read together with our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Digital Delivery Policy, and other policies available on the Website. By placing an Order through the Website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to this Refund Policy.

This Policy is designed to comply with applicable consumer protection laws in the United States, the European Union, the United Kingdom, and other jurisdictions where we offer our Services, while reflecting the unique nature of downloadable digital products.

 

2. Definitions

•        "Customer" or "you" means any individual or entity that places an Order through the Website.

•        "Order" means a request submitted through the Website by a Customer to purchase one or more Digital Products.

•        "Digital Product" means any downloadable or accessible digital item offered for sale through the Website, including but not limited to e-books, digital publications, serialized storytelling content, online-exclusive literary releases, educational materials, commentary, and other written digital works.

•        "Refund" means the return of all or part of the purchase price paid by a Customer.

•        "Chargeback" means a payment dispute initiated by a Customer through their bank or card issuer.

•        "Withdrawal Right" means the consumer's right under EU Directive 2011/83/EU and similar laws to withdraw from a distance contract within a specified period.

 

3. General Refund Principle

All sales of Digital Products through the Website are generally considered final once the Digital Product has been delivered, downloaded, or made accessible to the Customer. This is because Digital Products, by their nature, cannot be returned, retrieved, or rendered unusable once access has been granted.

Despite this general principle, Storifayo LLC recognizes that exceptional circumstances may justify a refund. The Company evaluates refund requests on a case-by-case basis in accordance with this Policy and applicable consumer protection laws.

By completing a purchase and accessing or downloading a Digital Product, the Customer acknowledges and accepts that the product has been delivered and that the general "no refund after access" rule applies, subject only to the specific exceptions set forth in this Policy.

 

4. European Union Withdrawal Rights Waiver

Under Directive 2011/83/EU on consumer rights and corresponding national laws of EU Member States, consumers generally have a fourteen (14) day right of withdrawal from distance contracts. However, this right does not apply to the supply of digital content not delivered on a tangible medium if the performance has begun with the consumer's prior express consent and acknowledgment that they thereby lose their right of withdrawal.

By placing an Order for a Digital Product through the Website, EU and UK Customers expressly:

•        Request immediate access to and delivery of the Digital Product before the expiry of the fourteen (14) day withdrawal period.

•        Provide prior express consent to the immediate performance of the contract.

•        Acknowledge that they will lose their statutory right of withdrawal once the download or access has begun.

This express consent is obtained through the checkout process, where the Customer must affirmatively confirm their understanding of the loss of withdrawal rights before completing the purchase.

If a Digital Product has not yet been downloaded or accessed, EU and UK Customers retain the right of withdrawal within fourteen (14) days from the date of the contract conclusion, in accordance with applicable law.

 

5. Refund Eligibility

Refunds may be considered in the following specific circumstances:

5.1 Duplicate or Erroneous Charges

If you were charged more than once for the same Digital Product due to a technical error, payment system malfunction, or other unintended duplication, you are entitled to a full refund of the duplicate charge upon verification.

5.2 Non-Delivery of the Digital Product

If you have completed payment but did not receive the Digital Product within twenty-four (24) hours of the transaction, and our customer support team has been unable to resolve the delivery issue within a reasonable additional period (typically five to seven business days), you are entitled to a full refund.

Non-delivery does not include cases where:

•        The Digital Product was delivered to the email address provided by the Customer but ended up in a spam, junk, or promotions folder.

•        The Customer entered an incorrect or non-functional email address during checkout.

•        The Customer's email service blocked or rejected our delivery email.

•        The Customer's account credentials were inaccessible due to their own error.

•        The Customer failed to follow the download instructions provided.

5.3 Significant Defects in the Digital Product

If a Digital Product contains a significant technical defect that renders the product fundamentally unusable, and the defect cannot be remedied through reasonable technical support, you may be eligible for a full or partial refund.

Significant defects include:

•        A file that cannot be opened on any standard, supported device or reader.

•        A file that is corrupted or incomplete to the extent that the content is not readable.

•        A Digital Product that is materially different from its description on the Website (for example, missing chapters or substantially different content).

Minor formatting issues, stylistic preferences, content disagreements, or compatibility issues with non-standard devices or software do not qualify as significant defects.

5.4 Unauthorized Transactions

If you believe that a transaction was made without your authorization (for example, due to fraud, unauthorized use of your payment method, or account compromise), please contact us immediately at contact@projectvilgatekaivenmorrick.com. We will investigate the matter, cooperate with your bank or card issuer, and, if the unauthorized nature of the transaction is verified, issue a full refund and take appropriate security measures.

You are encouraged to also notify your bank or card issuer promptly to protect your payment method from further unauthorized use.

5.5 Pricing or Description Errors

If a Digital Product was incorrectly priced or described on the Website due to a clerical, technical, or system error, the Company reserves the right to cancel the affected Order and issue a full refund of any amounts charged. The Company is not obligated to honor incorrectly listed prices or inaccurate descriptions.

5.6 Pre-Order Cancellations

If you have placed a pre-order for a Digital Product that has not yet been released or made available for download, you may cancel the pre-order and receive a full refund at any time prior to the product's release date or delivery, whichever occurs first.

 

6. Non-Refundable Circumstances

Refunds will generally not be issued in the following circumstances:

•        The Customer has accessed, downloaded, opened, viewed, or otherwise used the Digital Product, except where one of the eligibility grounds in Section 5 applies.

•        The Customer has changed their mind, no longer wants the product, or made an impulse purchase.

•        The Customer claims the content of the Digital Product did not meet personal expectations, personal taste, or subjective preferences.

•        The Customer disagrees with the opinions, perspectives, satire, commentary, or creative interpretations expressed in the Digital Product.

•        The Customer purchased the wrong Digital Product or selected the wrong title by mistake.

•        The Customer's device, software, or operating system does not support standard digital reading formats.

•        The Customer experiences technical issues caused by their own device, internet connection, or third-party software.

•        The Customer received the Digital Product as a gift and the original purchaser has already accessed it.

•        The Customer has shared, redistributed, or attempted to redistribute the Digital Product.

•        The refund request is submitted more than thirty (30) days after the original purchase date, except where required by applicable law.

•        The Customer's account has been suspended or terminated due to a breach of our Terms of Service, Acceptable Use Policy, or other policies.

•        The Customer has previously initiated unjustified chargebacks or has a history of refund abuse.

•        The Digital Product has been substantially consumed, including reading the majority of its content.

Storifayo LLC reserves the right to deny refund requests that do not meet the eligibility criteria set forth in this Policy.

 

7. Refund Request Process

To submit a refund request, please follow the steps below:

7.1 Step 1: Contact Customer Support

Send a refund request to contact@projectvilgatekaivenmorrick.com. Please include the following information to help us process your request efficiently:

•        Full name as it appears on the Order.

•        Email address used at the time of purchase.

•        Order or transaction reference number.

•        Date of purchase.

•        Title or name of the Digital Product.

•        Detailed reason for the refund request, with reference to one of the eligibility grounds in Section 5.

•        Supporting evidence where applicable (such as screenshots of technical errors, copies of correspondence, or proof of duplicate charges).

7.2 Step 2: Verification and Review

Upon receipt of your refund request, our customer support team will:

•        Acknowledge the request within three (3) business days.

•        Verify the transaction details against our records.

•        Investigate the circumstances described in your request.

•        Contact you for additional information or documentation if needed.

•        Render a decision based on the eligibility criteria set forth in this Policy and applicable law.

The Company aims to complete its review and provide a final decision within ten (10) business days of receiving all necessary information.

7.3 Step 3: Refund Decision

If your refund request is approved, we will notify you by email and process the refund in accordance with Section 8. If your refund request is denied, we will provide a written explanation of the reason for denial and, where appropriate, suggest alternative remedies such as technical support, product replacement, or store credit.

7.4 Time Limit for Refund Requests

Except where required by applicable law, refund requests must be submitted within thirty (30) days from the date of the original purchase. Requests submitted after this period will generally not be considered, except in exceptional circumstances at the Company's sole discretion.

 

8. Refund Processing

8.1 Refund Method

Approved refunds will be issued exclusively to the original payment method used for the purchase. We do not issue refunds to alternative payment methods, third-party accounts, or different cards. If the original payment method is no longer valid or available, please contact us for alternative arrangements; however, the Company is not obligated to issue a refund through a different payment method.

8.2 Refund Currency

Refunds will be processed in the same currency as the original transaction. The Company is not responsible for any exchange rate fluctuations or currency conversion fees applied by your bank, card issuer, or payment provider that may result in a different amount appearing in your account.

8.3 Refund Timing

Once a refund is approved, it will be initiated within five (5) to ten (10) business days. The actual time it takes for the refunded amount to appear in your account depends on your bank, card issuer, or payment provider, and may take an additional five (5) to fifteen (15) business days.

If you have not received the refund within thirty (30) days of approval, please contact your bank or card issuer first, then notify us at contact@projectvilgatekaivenmorrick.com if the issue persists.

8.4 Partial Refunds

In certain cases, the Company may issue partial refunds at its sole discretion. Partial refunds may apply when:

•        Only a portion of a multi-item Order is affected by a refund-eligible circumstance.

•        The Digital Product was partially defective but partially usable.

•        A pricing error was discovered after the Order was completed but before full delivery.

•        A goodwill resolution is offered in lieu of a full refund.

8.5 Fees and Deductions

Refunds will reflect the actual amount paid by the Customer for the Digital Product. The Company does not deduct administrative fees, processing fees, or other charges from approved refund amounts, unless required by applicable payment processor rules or by law.

 

9. Cancellations

9.1 Pre-Delivery Cancellations

You may cancel an Order at any time before the Digital Product has been delivered, downloaded, or accessed. To cancel, please contact us immediately at contact@projectvilgatekaivenmorrick.com with your Order details. If cancellation is requested before delivery and access has not begun, a full refund will be issued.

9.2 Post-Delivery Cancellations

Once a Digital Product has been delivered, downloaded, or accessed, the Order is generally considered completed and cannot be cancelled. Post-delivery refund requests are evaluated under the refund eligibility criteria set forth in Section 5.

9.3 Account Closure

Closing your Account does not automatically entitle you to a refund of previously purchased Digital Products. Refunds for purchases made prior to account closure are subject to this Refund Policy.

 

10. Chargebacks and Payment Disputes

10.1 Contact Us First

If you have any concerns about a transaction, we strongly encourage you to contact us first at contact@projectvilgatekaivenmorrick.com before initiating a chargeback or payment dispute with your bank or card issuer. In most cases, we can resolve concerns directly and more efficiently than through the chargeback process.

10.2 Chargeback Abuse

Initiating a chargeback without first attempting to resolve the issue with us, or initiating a chargeback after having used or accessed the Digital Product without a valid refund-eligible reason, may be considered chargeback abuse. The Company reserves the right to:

•        Dispute fraudulent or unjustified chargebacks with the relevant payment processor or card network.

•        Suspend or terminate the Customer's Account.

•        Revoke the license to any previously purchased Digital Products.

•        Refuse future Orders from the Customer.

•        Pursue recovery of losses, including chargeback fees, processing costs, and legal expenses.

•        Report chargeback abuse to relevant fraud prevention networks and databases.

Customers found to have engaged in chargeback abuse may be permanently banned from using the Services.

10.3 Cooperation with Payment Processors

In the event of a chargeback or payment dispute, the Company will fully cooperate with the relevant payment processor, card network, and financial institution. We may submit evidence including transaction records, delivery confirmation, IP logs, download or access timestamps, customer support correspondence, and proof of acceptance of our Terms of Service and this Refund Policy.

 

11. Promotional, Discounted, and Bundle Purchases

•        Digital Products purchased at a promotional or discounted price are subject to the same refund rules as full-priced products. Refunds, where approved, will be issued for the actual amount paid, not the standard retail price.

•        For bundled purchases (multiple Digital Products sold together at a combined price), refunds will generally apply to the entire bundle. Partial refunds for individual items within a bundle are issued only at the Company's discretion and based on a proportional allocation of the bundle price.

•        Free promotional items, complimentary downloads, or items received as part of a giveaway are not eligible for refunds, as no monetary consideration was paid by the Customer.

 

12. Gift Purchases

If you purchased a Digital Product as a gift for another person, the following rules apply:

•        Refund requests must be submitted by the original purchaser, not the recipient.

•        If the recipient has already accessed or downloaded the Digital Product, the purchase is generally non-refundable.

•        If the gift has not yet been redeemed or accessed, refund eligibility follows the same rules as standard Orders.

•        The Company is not responsible for verifying the relationship between the purchaser and the recipient.

 

13. Subscription and Recurring Charges

Storifayo LLC does not currently operate recurring subscription billing models, deceptive billing schemes, or auto-renewal traps. All purchases are one-time transactions for specific Digital Products.

If we introduce subscription-based services in the future, the terms governing those subscriptions, including cancellation and refund rights, will be clearly disclosed prior to purchase and will comply with applicable consumer protection laws, including U.S. federal and state subscription disclosure requirements and EU consumer protection rules.

 

14. Taxes

Where refunds are issued, any applicable taxes (such as VAT, sales tax, or GST) included in the original transaction will be refunded proportionally. The Company is not responsible for reimbursing any independent tax obligations the Customer may have in their jurisdiction unrelated to the original transaction.

 

15. Refunds Required by Law

Nothing in this Refund Policy is intended to limit or override your statutory consumer rights under applicable law. If you reside in a jurisdiction with mandatory consumer protection rules that provide rights beyond those set forth in this Policy, those statutory rights remain unaffected.

Specifically:

•        EU and UK consumers retain rights under applicable consumer protection laws, including remedies for non-conforming digital content under Directive (EU) 2019/770.

•        California and other U.S. state residents retain rights under applicable state consumer protection laws.

•        Australian consumers retain rights under the Australian Consumer Law, including remedies for goods or services that are not of acceptable quality, fit for purpose, or as described.

To exercise statutory rights that go beyond this Policy, please contact us at contact@projectvilgatekaivenmorrick.com with details of your jurisdiction and the basis of your claim.

 

16. Refund Abuse and Fraud Prevention

The Company monitors refund requests to detect patterns of abuse, fraud, and bad-faith claims. We reserve the right to refuse refunds and take additional action where we identify any of the following:

•        Repeated refund requests by the same Customer or related accounts.

•        Refund requests following substantial use or consumption of the Digital Product.

•        Refund requests inconsistent with the Customer's stated reason.

•        Use of multiple accounts, payment methods, or identities to circumvent refund restrictions.

•        Refund requests followed by repurchase patterns suggesting attempted free use.

•        Reports or indicators of association with fraud networks or abuse rings.

Customers identified as engaging in refund abuse may be subject to account suspension or termination, denial of future refund requests, and reporting to fraud prevention services.

 

17. Dispute Resolution

If a refund request is denied and you disagree with our decision, you may escalate the matter by:

•        Replying to our denial notification with additional information or evidence.

•        Requesting an internal review by a senior member of our customer support team.

•        Submitting a formal complaint to contact@projectvilgatekaivenmorrick.com with the subject line "Refund Escalation."

If informal resolution fails, the dispute resolution provisions of our Terms of Service apply, including governing law, jurisdiction, and any applicable consumer dispute resolution mechanisms.

European Union Customers may also access the European Commission's Online Dispute Resolution platform at https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr for assistance in resolving disputes.

 

18. Documentation and Record-Keeping

The Company maintains detailed records of all transactions, refund requests, and related correspondence for the period required by applicable law, typically not less than seven (7) years. These records may be used to:

•        Verify the authenticity and eligibility of refund requests.

•        Defend against chargebacks and payment disputes.

•        Comply with tax, accounting, and regulatory obligations.

•        Detect and prevent fraud or abuse.

•        Respond to legal, regulatory, or law enforcement inquiries.

Personal data processed in connection with refunds is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

 

19. Changes to This Refund Policy

The Company reserves the right to modify this Refund Policy at any time, in its sole discretion, to reflect changes in our business practices, legal obligations, or operational developments. When changes are made, we will:

•        Update the "Effective Date" at the top of this Policy.

•        Post the revised Policy on the Website.

•        Provide additional notice for material changes affecting your rights, where required by applicable law.

Refund requests will be evaluated based on the Refund Policy in effect at the time of the original purchase, except where applicable law requires otherwise.

 

20. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

This Refund Policy is governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising out of or related to this Policy shall be resolved in accordance with the dispute resolution provisions of our Terms of Service.

For Customers located in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or other jurisdictions with mandatory consumer protection laws, nothing in this Policy deprives you of the protections afforded by the mandatory provisions of the laws of your country of residence.

 

21. Severability

If any provision of this Refund Policy is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, consistent with the original intent.

 

22. Language

This Refund Policy is written in English. Any translations are provided for convenience only. In the event of any conflict or discrepancy between the English version and any translation, the English version shall prevail.

 

23. Entire Agreement

This Refund Policy, together with the Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, Digital Delivery Policy, and other policies referenced therein, constitutes the entire agreement between you and Storifayo LLC regarding refunds, cancellations, and related matters, and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, or representations on the same subject.
