Refund & Cancellation Policy

Refund eligibility and cancellation terms for Ask Before HR services.

Effective Date: September 2, 2026Last Updated: September 2, 2026

Overview

Top

Purchases from Ask Before HR are one-time service purchases, not subscriptions. This policy explains when a refund or cancellation is available.

Cancelling before review begins

Top

You may request cancellation and a full refund before an Ask Before HR professional begins substantive review of your submission.

Because work may begin shortly after a complete intake is received — especially for expedited or priority purchases — cancellation may not always be possible after intake is submitted.

After review has begun

Top

Once substantive review has begun, the fee is generally nonrefundable because professional time has been reserved and performed.

Once guidance has been delivered, refunds are not available merely because you disagree with the guidance, dislike the answer, or do not receive the workplace outcome you hoped for.

If we cannot accept or complete your request

Top

If Ask Before HR cannot accept or complete your request, you will receive a full refund.

If we miss a paid expedited target

Top

If Ask Before HR cannot meet a paid expedited response target, you may choose either:

  • A full refund, if no substantive guidance has been delivered; or
  • Continued service, with a refund of the difference between the expedited service and the closest applicable non-expedited service.

Duplicate charges and billing errors

Top

Duplicate charges and confirmed billing errors will be refunded.

Delays caused by incomplete information

Top

Incomplete intake information, missing documents, or delayed responses from you pause the turnaround period and do not automatically create refund eligibility.

How refunds are returned

Top

Refunds are returned to the original payment method. Processing time depends on the payment provider and your financial institution.

How to request a refund

Top

Please submit refund requests through our Contact page and include the purchaser's name, email address, transaction information, and the reason for the request.

Your non-waivable rights

Nothing in this policy limits any consumer rights that cannot legally be waived under applicable law.
