Refund and Cancellation Policy
Last updated: July 5, 2026
Because our work is custom and time-based, this policy explains how deposits, cancellations, and refunds are handled fairly for both sides.
Overview
Alvendra Dev provides custom services that are scoped and scheduled for each client. This means our time is reserved and work often begins before a project is complete. This policy sets out what happens if a project is paused, changed, or cancelled.
Deposits and payment schedule
Most projects begin with a deposit that confirms your booking and reserves our time. Remaining payments are tied to milestones or a schedule set out in your project agreement. Deposits are applied toward the total project fee.
Cancellation by the client
You may cancel a project at any time by written notice. If you cancel, you remain responsible for work already performed and time already committed up to the cancellation date. Any portion of a deposit not yet earned through completed work may be refundable, as described below.
Cancellation by Alvendra Dev
In rare cases — for example, if a project cannot proceed due to missing information, non-payment, or a breakdown in the working relationship — we may end an engagement with written notice. If we cancel for reasons unrelated to your conduct, we will refund any prepaid amount for work not yet performed.
Refund eligibility
Refunds are considered on the following basis:
- Fees for work already completed, and time already reserved and spent, are non-refundable.
- Amounts prepaid for work not yet started may be refunded, less any non-recoverable third-party costs.
- Custom work that has been delivered and approved is not eligible for a refund.
Third-party costs already incurred on your behalf (such as licenses, stock assets, or paid tools) are non-refundable.
Revisions instead of refunds
If you are not satisfied with a deliverable, our first step is to make it right through the revisions included in your project scope. See the Project Delivery and Revision Policy for how revisions work.
Chargebacks
We ask that you contact us first to resolve any billing concern before initiating a chargeback. Chargebacks filed for work that was delivered as agreed may be disputed with evidence of the completed work and communications.
How to request a refund or cancellation
To cancel a project or request a refund, email us using the details below with your project name and reason. We will confirm the status of the work, outline any amount due or refundable, and process eligible refunds to your original payment method.
