Refund & Cancellation Policy
3idhMinds sells custom software services and software subscriptions. This policy sets out when you can cancel, what is refundable and how quickly money is returned.
01Scope of this policy
This policy applies to all payments made to us by card, UPI, netbanking or bank transfer, including payments processed through Razorpay. It applies alongside your Statement of Work; where a signed SOW states different commercial terms, the SOW prevails.
02Fixed-scope projects
- Cancellation before work begins: full refund of the deposit, less any third-party costs already committed on your behalf.
- Cancellation within 7 days of kickoff: refund of the deposit less the value of work performed, charged at $95 per hour and evidenced by a written activity log.
- Cancellation after 7 days: amounts for completed and in-progress milestones are non-refundable. Fees paid in advance for milestones not yet started are refunded in full.
- Deliverables paid for at the point of cancellation are handed over to you.
03Monthly retainers
Retainers may be cancelled with 30 days' written notice. The current billing month is non-refundable because capacity is reserved in advance; no further invoices are issued after the notice period. Unused hours in a month do not carry forward and are not refundable.
04Product subscriptions
- New subscriptions include a 14-day money-back period. Request a refund within 14 days of the first payment and we return it in full.
- After 14 days, subscriptions can be cancelled at any time and stop at the end of the paid month. Part-months are not refunded.
- Implementation and onboarding fees are non-refundable once onboarding work has started.
- Usage-based charges already incurred, such as call minutes or carrier SMS fees, are never refundable.
05Service failure refunds
If we materially fail to deliver a contracted service and cannot remedy it within 15 days of written notice, you are entitled to a refund of the fees paid for the affected, undelivered portion of the work. If a Product falls below 99.5% monthly uptime, we credit 10% of that month's subscription fee for each full percentage point below the target, up to 100% of the fee.
06Not eligible for refund
- Work already completed and accepted, or milestones signed off.
- Change requests you approved in writing and we delivered.
- Third-party costs paid on your behalf: licences, domains, cloud usage, carrier and API fees.
- Delays caused by outstanding client inputs, access or approvals.
- Dissatisfaction with an outcome that matches the agreed written scope.
07How to request a refund or cancel
Email support@3idhmind.in from the address on the account with your invoice number, the service or subscription concerned, and the reason for the request. We acknowledge within 2 business days and confirm the outcome within 7 business days.
08How refunds are issued
Approved refunds are returned to the original payment method. Card and UPI refunds are initiated within 5 business days of approval and typically appear in 5 to 10 business days depending on your bank or card issuer. Bank transfers are processed within 7 business days. We do not issue cash refunds or transfers to a different account holder.
09Chargebacks and disputes
Please contact us before raising a chargeback; most disputes are resolved faster directly. Where a chargeback is raised on an invoice for delivered work, we will supply the SOW, activity logs and acceptance records to the payment provider.
