At CloudLens AI, operated by CloudLens AI, we want you to be completely
satisfied with your purchase. This Refund Policy outlines the terms and conditions for refunds on credit
purchases.
14-Day Money-Back Guarantee
We offer a 14-day money-back guarantee on unused credits. If you're not satisfied with
your purchase, you can request a full refund with a minimum of 14 days of purchase for any unused
credits. This policy aligns with international standards including Paddle's buyer protection guidelines.

2. Refund Calculation
2.1 Partial Refunds
If you've used some credits from your purchase, you'll receive a partial refund for the unused portion:
Refund Calculation Formula:
Refund Amount = (Total Purchase Price ÷ Total Credits Purchased) × Unused Credits
Example: You purchased 60 credits for $6.00 and used 10 credits. Refund = ($6.00 ÷ 60) × 50 =
$5.00
