Refund Policy

Last Updated: February 2025

No Refund Policy

Smart Homework Solutions operates a no refund policy for paid subscriptions because we offer a 7-day free trial period with full access to all features.

1. Free Trial Period

We provide all new users with a 7-day free trial that includes:

  • Complete access to all features and functionality
  • Unlimited questions and answers
  • All subjects and grade levels
  • Full access to analytics and reports
  • No credit card or payment information required

This trial period allows you to thoroughly evaluate our Service before making any payment.

2. No Refunds on Paid Subscriptions

Once you have subscribed to our paid plan (₹299/month) after the free trial period ends, no refunds will be issued for:

  • Partial months of service
  • Unused portions of your subscription
  • Change of mind after payment
  • Failure to use the Service during the billing period
  • Technical issues on your end (device, internet connection)

3. Rationale for No Refund Policy

Our no refund policy is in place because:

  • 7-Day Free Trial: You have a full week to test the Service at no cost
  • Digital Service: Once accessed, our AI-generated content cannot be "returned"
  • Fair Usage: This prevents abuse of the Service after full utilization
  • Clear Communication: This policy is clearly stated before subscription

4. Cancellation Policy

While we do not offer refunds, you may cancel your subscription at any time:

  • Cancel anytime from your account settings in the app
  • Your subscription will remain active until the end of the current billing period
  • You will not be charged for subsequent billing periods after cancellation
  • Access to the Service continues until the paid period expires
  • You can resubscribe at any time in the future

5. Cancellation During Free Trial

If you cancel during the 7-day free trial:

  • You will not be charged anything
  • Your access will end at the conclusion of the trial period
  • No payment information is collected during the trial, so there's nothing to refund

6. Exceptions (Extraordinary Circumstances)

Refunds may be considered only in the following exceptional cases:

  • Technical Error: If you were charged twice due to a technical error on our end
  • Service Failure: If our Service was completely unavailable for an extended period (more than 7 consecutive days)
  • Unauthorized Charges: If charges were made without your authorization

To request a refund in these exceptional circumstances, contact us at shsbyai@gmail.com within 7 days of the charge with:

  • Your account email address
  • Transaction ID or receipt
  • Detailed explanation of the issue
  • Supporting evidence (screenshots, error messages)

Each request will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis, and we reserve the right to approve or deny refund requests at our sole discretion.

7. Billing Issues

If you notice an incorrect charge or billing issue:

  • Contact us immediately at shsbyai@gmail.com
  • Provide your account details and transaction information
  • We will investigate and resolve billing errors promptly
  • Legitimate billing errors will be corrected within 7-10 business days

8. Payment Gateway Policies

Payments are processed through third-party payment gateways (Razorpay and Stripe). Please note:

  • Payment gateway fees are non-refundable
  • Chargebacks may result in account suspension
  • Contact us before initiating a chargeback to resolve issues
  • Fraudulent chargebacks may result in legal action

9. Service Modifications

We reserve the right to:

  • Modify features and functionality of the Service
  • Change subscription prices with 30 days notice
  • Discontinue the Service (with full refund of current period in such cases)

If we discontinue the Service entirely, subscribers will receive a prorated refund for the unused portion of their subscription.
