Refund Policy

This Refund Policy outlines the circumstances under which Ghost Engine Digital will provide refunds, the procedure for submitting a refund request, and the responsibilities of both parties. By engaging our services, you agree to the terms outlined in this policy.

Coverage & Scope

This policy applies to all services contracted through Ghost Engine Digital, operating at ghostengine.digital. It does not apply to any third-party tools, platforms, or providers engaged independently by the client. Ghost Engine Digital’s liability in any refund scenario is limited to fees paid directly to us.

Our Commitment

We approach every project intending to deliver exceptional results. We believe that most concerns can be resolved through open communication and reasonable adjustments. Before submitting a formal refund request, we ask that you reach out to our team at info@ghostengine.digital to allow us an opportunity to address your concerns and find a mutually satisfactory resolution.

Refund Eligibility by Service

Website Design & Development

  • Full Refund: If the project has not been initiated and no discovery, strategy, or design work has commenced.
  • Partial Refund: If the project is in progress but Ghost Engine Digital has failed to deliver within the agreed scope or timeline. The refund amount will be proportional to the outstanding work yet to be completed.
  • No Refund: Once a website has been launched, delivered, or uploaded to the client’s server, no refund will be issued.

Branding & Graphic Design

  • Full Refund: If no design work has been initiated prior to the refund request.
  • Partial Refund: If initial concepts have been delivered and approved but final deliverables have not yet been completed. The refund amount will reflect work completed to date.
  • No Refund: Once final files have been delivered to the client.

SEO, Local Visibility & Digital Marketing Services

All SEO, Local SEO, content strategy, visibility optimization, and ongoing marketing services are billed in advance and are non-refundable once the service period has commenced. These services involve significant upfront research, strategy, and execution investment. Clients may cancel future billing periods with written notice, but fees already paid for an active period will not be refunded.

Advertising Services

Advertising spend paid to third-party platforms (e.g., Google Ads, Meta Ads) is non-refundable as these funds are disbursed directly to the ad networks. Ghost Engine Digital management fees for advertising services are non-refundable once campaign work has begun.

Strategy & Consulting

Strategy calls, discovery sessions, and consulting engagements are non-refundable once the session has taken place.

Applicability & Conditions

The following conditions affect refund eligibility:

  • Refund requests will not be considered if the client has failed to provide the necessary information, content, or approvals required for project completion in a timely manner.
  • Delays attributable to the client do not constitute grounds for a refund against Ghost Engine Digital.
  • Refund requests must be submitted in writing to info@ghostengine.digital and include a clear description of the reason for the request.
  • Ghost Engine Digital reserves the right to assess the proportion of work completed and issue a partial refund accordingly.

Limitation of Liability

Ghost Engine Digital’s refund liability is limited to the value of undelivered work within the contracted project scope. We are not liable for indirect losses, missed business opportunities, or consequential damages arising from any service delay or dispute.

Chargeback Policy

Clients agree to contact Ghost Engine Digital directly at info@ghostengine.digital prior to initiating any chargeback or payment dispute with their bank or credit card provider. Initiating a chargeback without first following the refund request process outlined in this policy constitutes a material breach of this agreement. In the event of a chargeback, Ghost Engine Digital reserves the right to suspend all active services immediately, retain any delivered work product, and pursue recovery of disputed funds including any associated chargeback fees incurred by our payment processor.

Processing of Refunds

Approved full refunds will be processed within 30 business days of the cancellation confirmation. Approved partial refunds will be calculated based on completed work and processed within 45 business days. Refunds will be issued using the original payment method unless otherwise agreed in writing.
