Effective Date: [29-12-2024]
At mnae1.com, our mission is to provide users with accurate and trustworthy recommendations by promoting products and services from reliable third-party merchants through affiliate links. However, since we do not sell products directly, all refunds, returns, and exchanges are governed by the respective merchant’s policies.
This Refund Policy outlines how refunds work, the steps to initiate one, and additional information to help you navigate the refund process effectively.
1. Affiliate Purchases and Refund Responsibility
When you click on a product link on mnae1.com, you are redirected to the merchant’s website. All transactions, including orders, payments, and refunds, are processed directly with the merchant. As such:
- mnae1.com does not store any payment details or order information.
- Refunds and returns must be requested through the merchant, as per their policies.
We strongly encourage users to carefully review the merchant’s refund and return policy before completing a purchase.
