WAVETROVE REFUND AND CANCELLATION POLICY ======================================== Engineering release policy — qualified legal review required Effective date: 2026-08-22 1. FREE AI EDITION The Free AI edition is a no-charge, one-year, machine-bound license request. It does not automatically renew and does not require a recurring payment. Because no license fee is charged for the Free AI edition, there is no license purchase price to refund. The user may stop using it and remove the software at any time. This no-charge policy does not remove any mandatory consumer right or remedy. 2. COMMERCIAL EDITIONS Commercial licenses are one-time unless a written order, subscription, or license record expressly states that the transaction is recurring. A recurring subscription requires affirmative consent to the recurring term and clearly states the price, billing interval, renewal behavior, cancellation method, effective cancellation date, and applicable taxes or fees. The applicable order or commercial license should state the refund window, eligible cancellation events, prepaid-term treatment, partial-period rule, chargeback handling, and contact channel. If it does not state a refund rule, Digital Zone Expert LLC makes no voluntary refund promise; only mandatory law, the payment provider's rules, and the written transaction terms control. 3. CANCELLATION Cancellation stops future recurring charges where applicable. It does not retroactively cancel a completed one-time purchase unless the order, Digital Zone Expert LLC's published policy, or mandatory law provides that right. Digital Zone Expert LLC must not make cancellation harder than the method used to start a recurring transaction where applicable law requires comparable access. 4. DONATIONS PayPal donations are voluntary contributions and are not a purchase of a WaveTrove license, feature, service level, or support promise. Donation handling is subject to the payment provider's rules and any mandatory law. 5. OPERATING RULE Website pricing, checkout, license emails, commercial orders, and support responses must match this policy. A disclaimer cannot override a mandatory refund, cancellation, cooling-off, chargeback, or consumer remedy. Related documents: WaveTrove-User-Agreement.txt and WaveTrove-Commercial-License-Terms.txt.
