Refund Policy
Effective date: 2025-09-13
This Refund Policy explains when and how we issue refunds for purchases made on jvdt.net (lessons and JVDT support materials). If anything is unclear, please email learn@jvdt.net and we’ll help.
1) What this covers
-
Digital resources you purchase and download (e.g., lesson plans, slides, templates, PDFs, audio/video).
-
Live online lessons / workshops you book for a specific date and time.
This policy does not affect your statutory rights (for example, under EU/UK consumer law).
2) Digital resources (downloads)
Before you download/access
-
You can request a full refund within 14 days of purchase if you have not accessed or downloaded the file(s).
After you download/access
-
Once a digital item has been accessed, downloaded, or streamed, refunds are not available (digital content is considered “consumed” once delivered).
-
If a file is defective or not as described, email us within 14 days of purchase. We will replace the file promptly. If we cannot provide a working replacement within a reasonable time, we’ll issue a full refund.
Duplicate purchases
-
If you accidentally bought the same item twice and haven’t accessed both copies, we’ll refund the duplicate on request.
3) Live online lessons / workshops
You cancel
-
24+ hours before the scheduled start: full refund or 100% credit (your choice).
-
Less than 24 hours before start: 50% credit (no cash refund).
-
No-show: not refundable.
We cancel or reschedule
-
If we cancel for any reason, you may choose a full refund or a 100% credit toward another date.
Late arrival
-
We’ll do our best to adjust, but sessions end at the booked time and are not refundable if shortened due to late arrival.
4) EU/UK right of withdrawal (cooling-off)
For consumers in the EU/UK:
-
Digital content (not on a tangible medium): you have a 14-day right to withdraw until you start downloading/streaming. When you choose “download now” (or similar), you agree to immediate delivery and acknowledge losing the right of withdrawal for that item.
-
Scheduled services (lessons): you have a 14-day withdrawal right. If you ask the service to start during that period, you may pay a pro-rata amount for the part already delivered. Our cancellation windows above are designed to be fair and clear.
This section is a summary; your statutory rights apply in full.
5) How to request a refund or credit
Email learn@jvdt.net with:
-
Subject: Refund request
-
Your name and email used for purchase
-
Order number and item(s)
-
Brief reason (e.g., duplicate, defective file, cancellation timing)
If the request is approved, we refund to your original payment method. Credits, when chosen, are applied to your account/email for future bookings or purchases.
Processing time: we initiate refunds within 3 business days; your bank/card provider may take 5–10 business days to post funds. Currency conversion or bank fees are not controlled by us.
6) Fair use & exceptions
We may decline or limit refunds where we detect:
-
clear misuse (e.g., repeated purchases and refunds after download),
-
resale or redistribution of materials in breach of our license, or
-
fraud.
We will always explain our reasoning and seek a fair resolution.

Quick summary
-
Digital downloads: refundable within 14 days only if not accessed; defective files are replaced or refunded.
-
Live lessons/workshops: 24+ hrs cancel = full refund/credit; <24 hrs = 50% credit; no-show = no refund.
-
EU/UK: your 14-day withdrawal right applies; downloading/streaming starts delivery and ends that right for digital content.
-
Refunds go back to the original payment method; credits are available on request.
