REFUND POLICY

1. INTRODUCTION

This Refund Policy outlines the circumstances under which refunds may be issued for subscribed or paid listings on witness.net.au (“the Website”). By purchasing a listing or subscription, you agree to the terms described below.

2. GENERAL POLICY

All payments made for subscribed or premium listings are non‑refundable, except where required under Australian consumer law.

Subscriptions provide immediate access to enhanced listing features, visibility benefits, and promotional placement. Because these benefits are delivered instantly, refunds are generally not offered.

3. AUSTRALIAN CONSUMER LAW

Nothing in this Policy limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). Refunds will be provided where the ACL requires it, including situations involving:

  • Major service failures

  • Services not delivered as advertised

  • Services that are unsafe or unlawful

If a refund is granted under the ACL, it will be processed promptly.

4. SUBSCRIPTION PAYMENTS

4.1 Initial Payments

Payments for subscribed listings are processed securely through our payment provider. Once payment is completed, the listing is activated immediately.

4.2 Renewals

Subscription renewals are billed automatically according to the selected billing cycle. Renewal payments are non‑refundable once processed.

Users may cancel future renewals at any time through their account dashboard.

5. DUPLICATE PAYMENTS

If a duplicate payment occurs due to a technical error or processing issue, we will refund the duplicate amount upon verification.

6. INCORRECT PURCHASES

If you accidentally purchase the wrong listing package, contact us immediately. We may, at our discretion:

  • Move your payment to the correct package, or

  • Issue a partial or full refund if the listing has not yet been activated.

7. LISTING, REMOVAL OR SUSPENSION

Refunds are not provided if:

  • Your listing is removed due to a breach of our Terms & Conditions

  • Your account is suspended for misuse

  • You voluntarily delete your listing before the end of your subscription period

8. TECHNICAL ISSUES

If you experience technical issues that prevent you from accessing subscribed features, we will work to resolve the issue promptly.

Refunds may be considered if:

  • The issue is caused by our system, and

  • We are unable to resolve it within a reasonable timeframe

9. HOW TO REQUEST A REFUND

To request a refund, contact us through the Contact page on witness.net.au. Include:

  • Your name

  • Email address

  • Listing URL

  • Payment reference

  • Reason for the refund request

We aim to respond within 3–5 business days.

We may update this Refund Policy at any time.
Continued use of the Website or subscription services constitutes acceptance of any updated terms.
