Refund Policy

Effective date: to be inserted on publication

Draft — this page is a structural scaffold. Each section needs final language from counsel before publication.

1. 14-day, no questions asked

Any subscription can be refunded in full within 14 days of the first charge, for any reason.

INSERT: jurisdiction-specific refund obligations (e.g. EU/UK 14-day cooling-off; Australian Consumer Law)

2. How to request a refund

Email hello@shadynotes.app from the address on your Stripe receipt with the subject line "Refund". No form, no survey, no retention call.

INSERT: confirm contact email is monitored; add SLA

3. Processing time

We'll acknowledge within one business day and issue the refund through Stripe; the credit takes a few business days to land depending on your card issuer.

INSERT: confirm Stripe refund SLA

4. After the 14 days

Cancel any time; the subscription stays active until period end, then doesn't renew. We don't pro-rate refunds outside the 14-day window. Your notes are plain files on your disk and are unaffected either way.

INSERT: pro-rata edge cases if yearly billing needs one

5. Chargebacks

If you raise a chargeback before contacting us, we lose the dispute fee and the goodwill — please email us first.

INSERT: chargeback policy reviewed by counsel
