Refunds: We will not issue refunds for products or Services purchased. The only exception is website design, where a refund may be available if a user isn’t completely satisfied with the design. However, a refund will only be available if the user notifies us of their dissatisfaction in writing prior to the site being launched and going live.

Failure to so notify within this time period, or in writing, will result in your waiver of any claim relating to the disputed payment.

10. Subscriptions and Cancellation Policy

You may choose a subscription plan through the Service. We offer “Monthly” and “Annual” subscriptions. Our subscription plans consist of an initial charge followed by recurring charges on a monthly or annual basis, depending on the subscription. The initial payment will be withdrawn at the time of sign-up. Then after, we’ll submit periodic charges (e.g., monthly, annually) without further authorization from you, until you opt out of auto-renewal. By using the Service, you acknowledge your subscription has an initial and recurring payment feature and that you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation or termination. Payments are automatically withdrawn on the day of your original sign-up each month. This date cannot be manually changed, as it is set up automatically within our system. If a monthly subscription is scheduled for a date that does not occur in a month (such as the 31st), you will be charged on the last day of the month instead.

Cancellation Policy

To cancel a subscription, contact us through our contact page at https://decisivesites.com/contact/ at least 7 days before your subscription is set to renew. For example, if you are on a monthly plan and want to cancel for the month of October, you must submit a cancellation request 7 days prior to the first day of October. Please note, you won’t receive a refund of any pre-paid amounts with a cancellation, unless your website has not launched yet. Cancellations will stop future renewals. If you’d like to receive your files and database to migrate your site to a different host/platform, you i) must have been with us for two full (or 24 months) contiguously paid years; or ii) pay the difference between what has been paid contiguously up to the time of cancellation and the amount you would have paid after two contiguous years at your current subscription level at the time of cancellation. If you choose not to “buy out” your site, the site will remain on our servers for a period of 15 days for you to manually migrate (copy/paste) your content and images. After 15 days we reserve the right to delete all files and content without liability.
