Refund Policy
This policy describes the general refund and cancellation framework for Hostingcone products and services. Eligibility depends on the purchase and applicable terms; some third-party products have separate eligibility rules.
Some products and services are provided through third-party vendors and may be subject to additional refund, cancellation, or eligibility restrictions.
1. General Refund Policy
Hostingcone reviews refund and cancellation requests according to the service purchased, the applicable order or plan terms, and any relevant third-party requirements. A cancellation request and a refund request are separate: stopping future service does not automatically entitle a customer to repayment of previous charges.
This draft establishes no universal money-back guarantee or fixed refund window. Applicable legal rights remain subject to the law governing the transaction. Review the Terms of Service alongside this policy.
2. Eligibility for Refunds
Eligibility depends on the specific service purchased, whether delivery has started, the work already completed, third-party vendor rules, renewal status, and applicable promotional terms. Relevant order records and the reason for the request may also need to be reviewed.
A request does not itself establish entitlement to a refund. Hostingcone should assess the applicable product terms and any mandatory legal requirements before confirming whether a full, partial, or no refund is appropriate.
3. Non-Refundable Services
Some charges may be non-refundable under the applicable service or supplier terms, particularly after a registration, issuance, activation, or professional service has been processed or delivered. This does not mean that every Hostingcone payment is non-refundable.
Any exclusion should be considered in the context of the specific purchase, the work performed, and applicable law. Business/legal review should confirm product-specific exclusions and how they are disclosed before purchase.
4. Domain Registrations
Domain registrations and renewals are generally subject to registrar and registry rules and may be non-refundable once processed. Eligibility may depend on the domain, transaction status, and the applicable provider policy.
Check spelling, registration details, and the selected domain before ordering. This policy does not establish a registrar-specific cancellation period, grace period, or refund timeline.
5. Domain Transfers
Domain transfers are subject to registrar and registry rules and may be non-refundable once processed. The transfer status and the applicable provider terms affect how a cancellation or refund request can be handled.
A failed, delayed, or cancelled transfer should be reviewed according to the particular transaction and provider rules. This draft does not promise an automatic refund or invent a transfer-specific deadline.
6. SSL Certificates
Certificate refund eligibility may depend on the certificate provider, issuance status, validation status, and applicable vendor policy. A certificate that has been issued or activated may be subject to different restrictions from an unprocessed order.
Contact Hostingcone with the certificate order details so the relevant terms can be checked. No refund is promised outside the applicable supplier rules or any rights required by law.
7. Third-Party Software and Add-On Services
Email services, security tools, backup products, productivity suites, SEO tools, monitoring tools, VPN/privacy products, and other add-ons may be governed by third-party supplier rules. Activation, licensing, billing, cancellation, and refund restrictions can vary by product.
Hostingcone cannot promise refunds outside those rules. The relevant product terms should be reviewed for the purchased service rather than assuming that a policy for one add-on applies to another.
8. Web Hosting
Hosting refund eligibility depends on the particular plan, its terms, activation or use of the service, renewal status, and any bundled or third-party charges. This policy does not promise refunds for every hosting service or establish a money-back guarantee period.
Customers should review plan details and contact support before cancelling. Cancellation may affect access to hosting and associated data; arrange appropriate independent backups before service ends.
9. Website Care and Maintenance Services
Recurring Website Care charges may be refundable only where allowed by the customer’s plan terms and before substantial work for the billing period has been performed. Maintenance, updates, support, and other work already delivered may affect eligibility.
The scope purchased and the work completed must be considered when reviewing a request. This draft creates no specific cancellation deadline. Check your plan terms and contact Hostingcone about future billing or cancellation arrangements.
10. One-Time Technical Services
Once troubleshooting, repair, optimization, consultation, or other professional work has begun, some or all of the fee may be non-refundable depending on the agreed scope and work already performed.
An unresolved issue or unsuccessful troubleshooting does not automatically qualify for a refund. Results can depend on third-party software, customer access, infrastructure, or other conditions. Requests should be reviewed against the agreed service terms and the work delivered.
11. Website Migration Services
Migration requests may involve assessment, preparation, data handling, transfer work, testing, or coordination with third parties. Once work has begun, some or all of the fee may be non-refundable depending on the work performed and the agreed terms.
A delay, compatibility issue, or incomplete migration does not by itself establish refund eligibility. The service scope, customer cooperation, available access, and any third-party restrictions should be considered when reviewing the request.
12. Setup Fees and Completed Work
Setup fees and charges for completed work may be non-refundable where the applicable purchase terms provide for this and subject to applicable law. Work may include configuration, provisioning, consultation, or other agreed professional tasks.
A partial refund may be considered only where appropriate under the relevant terms and circumstances. This draft does not establish a fixed deduction, administrative charge, or fee schedule.
13. Renewals
Customers are responsible for reviewing renewal settings, renewal notices, and the terms of their services. Refund eligibility after an automatic renewal may depend on the service, whether the renewal has been processed, and the relevant vendor terms.
Contact Hostingcone if you wish to discuss renewal or cancellation arrangements. A request after renewal does not automatically reverse a completed transaction; no universal renewal-refund window is established here.
14. Promotional or Discounted Services
Promotional and discounted purchases may have offer-specific refund or cancellation terms. Bundled products, introductory prices, credits, or supplier promotions may affect the treatment of individual charges.
Review the terms disclosed with the offer. This draft does not invent a promotion-specific exclusion, repayment obligation, or method for recalculating discounts; any applicable condition must come from the actual offer and applicable law.
15. Chargebacks and Payment Disputes
Please contact Hostingcone support before initiating a payment dispute so the transaction and your concern can be reviewed. Include the relevant order or invoice reference and an explanation of the issue.
A chargeback may result in service suspension while the dispute is investigated, depending on the circumstances and applicable terms. Customers retain any payment-dispute rights available under applicable law or their payment provider’s rules. Service use must also follow the Acceptable Use Policy.
16. How to Request a Refund
Use the Hostingcone Contact page or the existing customer contact form. For account-specific requests, the existing Contact page recommends your client area or a support ticket. Provide your order or invoice number, service name, account email, and reason for the request.
Do not send full card numbers, passwords, or sensitive payment credentials. Hostingcone may need relevant transaction information to assess eligibility. See the Privacy Policy for information about handling customer information.
17. Processing of Approved Refunds
Approved refunds are generally returned to the original payment method where possible. The amount and method should be confirmed when the request is approved; alternative arrangements may be needed where the original method cannot receive a refund.
Processing time may depend on the payment processor or financial institution. This policy does not promise a specific number of business days or guarantee when funds will appear in the customer’s account.
18. Changes to This Policy
This policy may be revised to reflect changes in products, supplier rules, billing practices, or legal requirements. The “Last updated” notice identifies the version made available on this page.
Business/legal review should confirm how changes apply to existing purchases and what notices are required. A revision should not be treated as removing mandatory rights or retrospectively changing a purchase without a valid basis.
19. Contact Information
For refund, billing, or cancellation questions, use the Hostingcone Contact page or its existing customer contact form. For account-specific enquiries, use your client area or submit a support ticket as advised on the current Contact page.
Identify the relevant account, order, and service so the request can be reviewed. No physical mailing address, unverified support email, or specific response-time promise is introduced in this draft.
This document should be reviewed by qualified legal counsel before final publication.
